I wonder
just how the people who look and seem like creeps in the night feel
about their life, knowing that they have sold out their very soul to
everlasting damnation. I suppose that they don't really care because
otherwise they wouldn't live that way, right?
I keep hearing a lot of people who say that what they do just
doesn't matter. And that seem to be a popular talking point that must
have gone around the American peoples neighborhoods lately.
People
who are atheists say stuff like that all the time, in fact they are
fast to tell people who have faith in God, Quote: Just who do the
Christean people think they are judging other people behavior, that
there is no real God, and then they don't have a moral leg to stand on.
It is absolutely amazing to me how atheists talk about
morality, when in fact they keep professing that they don't believe in
Gods law.

WASHINGTON
- The cellphone encryption technology used most widely across the world
can be easily defeated by the National Security Agency, an internal
document shows, giving the agency the means to decode most of the
billions of calls and texts that travel over public airwaves every day.
While the military and law enforcement agencies long have been able to
hack into individual cellphones, the NSA's capability appears to be far
more sweeping because of the agency's global signals collection
operation. The agency's ability to crack encryption used by the majority
of cellphones in the world offers it wide-ranging powers to listen in
on private conversations.
U.S. law prohibits the NSA from collecting the content of conversations
between Americans without a court order. But experts say that if the NSA
has developed the capacity to easily decode encrypted cellphone
conversations, then other nations likely can do the same through their
own intelligence services, potentially to Americans' calls, as well.
Some
of the other television personality's along with the many politicians
also seem creepy to me, guys like Bill O' Reilly comes to my mind. O'
Reilly look like a narcissistic horse's ass most of the time, always
talking about how his factor TV show is leading the other network's TV
programing like his - in the television ratings. Man go some place else
with your reflection Bill, you look like a foolish boring blowhard.
You
couldn't inspire a large number of people to vote for you if your life
depended on it. So quiet criticizing your betters like Sarah Palin you
creep, who in the hell do you think you are?
And that goes for Ann Coulter, Mike Huckabee too, who should
also give it a rest. You self centered hypocrite, what make you think
that you are different than the same old Washington DC
Tweedledee/Tweedledum,
In fact the people that these three TV personalities keep
criticizing are the very people who would really change the corruption
in the United States federal government. Bill O' Reilly, Ann Coulter,
Mike Huckabee seem like a joke that is not funny to me.
Now the speaker of the House of Representatives John Boehner is
speaking out against the politics of the Tea Party members who help him
become speaker in the first place. Because the high tied of change was
driven by the influx of the Tea Party members in the 2010 election. Wow!
I am beginning to despise everyone in Washington DC except the Tea
Party members. Tweedledee/Tweedledum was always the people corrupting
the American people federal government. So I find it very enlightening
for John Boehner to chose the sides against the Tea Party.
I also feel grateful to the Tea Party for helping me to
identify the establishment Washington DC members in the Federal
Government. Now I know who the creeps are by name.

followers. Frankly, I just think they have lost all credibility."

The schism at the heart of conservative politics in the US was laid
bare on Thursday when John Boehner, the speaker of the House of
Representatives, launched a stinging attack on the collection of
rightwing lobby groups that hold sway over the fundamentalist wing of
the Republican party.
Boehner, who was the public face of the disastrous strategy to shut
down the federal government earlier this year, said the groups had “lost
all credibility” in their attempts to stir up opposition to a new
budget deal, announced this week.
Boehner’s comments suggest that moderate voices in the Republican
party now feel emboldened to speak out against the strategy embodied by
Tea Party-backed figures such as Ted Cruz, the firebrand Texas senator
who advocated the shutdown in a failed attempt to hobble President
Obama’s healthcare reforms.
Speaking in advance of a vote on the $1tn budget deal agreed this
week, Boehner revealed the depth of the Republican dispute in unusually
stark language, accusing Washington groups such as Heritage Action and
Club for Growth of deliberately mischaracterising the agreement as a
“sellout” even though it lowered the federal deficit.
“They are misleading their followers. They are pushing their members
in places they don't want to be and, frankly, I just think they have
lost all credibility,” he told reporters at a press conference.
Boehner has stepped up his attacks on the right in the past few days,
accusing them of opposing the deal before they had even found out what
was in it.
"They're using our members and they are using the American people for
their own goals. This is ridiculous," he said outside a meeting of
Republican leaders in Congress on Tuesday.
But as it became clear that he would receive sufficient support from
House Democrats to pass the budget on Wednesday without the support of
Tea Party Republicans, Boehner ratcheted up his rhetoric and revealed
his frustration with the direction they had dragged his party this year.
“They pushed us into this fight to defund Obamacare and to shut down
the government,” he added. “Most of you know that wasn't exactly the
strategy I had in mind. But if you recall, the day before the government
reopened one of these groups stood up and said 'Well, we never really
thought it would work'. Are you kidding me?!”
He was apparently referring to Heritage Action, the activist wing of
the Heritage Foundation, which first threatened to downgrade its “score”
of Republican congressman if they voted to end October's shutdown, but
then suggested waiting until 2017 to continue the fight against Obamacare once it appeared the strategy was alienating voters.
Paul Ryan Was 'Frustrated' By Conservative Groups, But Still Thinks They Are 'Very Important'
AP/The Huffington Post
WASHINGTON (AP) — Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) says he was
frustrated with conservative groups that protested the bipartisan budget
deal he helped engineer, but distanced himself from House Speaker John
Boehner's (R-Ohio) public criticism of the groups.
The House Budget Committee chairman tells NBC's "Meet the Press" that
these groups are "very important elements" of the conservative
movement. But the Wisconsin Republican says discussions about these
groups should be kept "within the family."
"I think John just got his Irish up there," Ryan said. "I think these
groups are valuable. The way I look at it is this: They're part of our
conservative family. I'd prefer to keep these conversation within our
family."

RUSH:
I've stayed out of it. You know I've stayed out of it. I've told
everybody I don't even care about it. It's the same old BS. It's the
same old soap opera script. There's nothing new in it. I haven't even
gotten worked up about it, and in the audio sound bites it's me versus
Boehner. I try to step aside, and they suck me back in. I try to leave
it alone, and they bring it right back to my doorstep.

Liberals’
love of recycling extends to their ideas, one of which illustrates the
miniaturization of Barack Obama’s presidency. He fervently favors a
minor measure that would have mostly small, mostly injurious effects on a
small number of people. Nevertheless, raising the minimum hourly wage
for the 23rd time since 1938, from today’s $7.25 to $10.10, is a nifty idea, if:
If government is good at setting prices. Government — subsidizer of Solyndra, operator of the ethanol program, creator of HealthCare.gov — uses minimum-wage laws to set the price for the labor of workers who are apt to add only small value to the economy.
If you think government should prevent two
consenting parties — an employer and a worker — from agreeing to an
hourly wage that government disapproves.
If you think today’s 7 percent unemployment rate
is too low. (It would be 10.9 percent if the workforce participation
rate were as high as it was when Obama was first inaugurated; since
then, millions of discouraged workers have stopped searching for jobs.)
Because less than 3 percent of the workforce earns the minimum wage,
increasing that wage will not greatly increase unemployment. Still,
raising the price of low-productivity workers will somewhat reduce
demand for them.
If you reject that last sentence. If you do,
name other goods or services for which you think demand is inelastic
when their prices increase.
If you think government policy should encourage automation of the ordering and preparation of food to replace workers in the restaurant industry, which employs 43.8 percent of minimum-wage workers.
In Nick Saban’s mind, he’s starting over at Alabama.
Well, not really. But that’s the way he’s approaching it, which
should be good news to an Alabama fan base that has come to expect
national championships the way folks in the Alps expect snow.
While just about everybody else spent this week trying to discern
whether or not Saban would bolt for Texas, he was out on the recruiting
trail grinding away with the kind of singular focus that distinguishes
him as the only coach in the modern era of college football (dating to
1936) to have won national championships at two schools.
More on Alabama
For full coverage of the Tide, check out the Alabama blog, part of ESPN's College Football Nation. Blog
This
just in: He’d like to win a few more … at Alabama. But he also knows
that this next stretch will present some daunting challenges.
“I’m looking at it like we’ve got to start all over again, that this
is 2007 again,” Saban told ESPN.com Saturday after agreeing to a
long-term extension with Alabama.
“We’ve had a lot of success here, but we’re going to have a new
quarterback next year and lots of challenges. Some of the issues on our
team this year had to do with complacency and winning too much. We have
to get back to having the kind of character, attitude and competitive
spirit that we need to have.
“So there are plenty of challenges here. I’m going to spend my time trying to fix those.”
Quarterback AJ McCarron,
who won the Maxwell Award this season as the player of the year in
college football, isn’t the only key component in the Tide’s historic
run that’s leaving. Their quarterback on defense, linebacker C.J. Mosley,
is also a departing senior. Go back and count all the clutch plays and
leadership that both of those players have provided over the past couple
of years.
“There’s going to be a transition,” Saban said. “When you have a new
quarterback, you always have to see how he develops and what he can and
can’t do. We’re going to have a good team, and we have some good young
players. But it all has to come together.”
Saban concedes that the dynamic at Alabama has changed, but that’s
just part of the deal when you win three of the most recent four
national championships.
This will be the first time since 2010 that the Crimson Tide haven’t hoisted that crystal trophy at season’s end.
“The expectations are what they are here, and we don’t run around
talking about them,” Saban said. “We created them, and we’ll handle
them.”
The first to go red was West Monroe High’s Cameron Robinson, the No. 1
offensive tackle in the nation and No. 7 overall prospect in the
country, according to Rivals.com. He committed to Alabama over LSU on
Sept. 4. On Dec. 2, Laurence “Hootie” Jones, the No. 4 safety in the
nation and No. 38 overall prospect in the country by Rivals.com out of
Neville High in Monroe, committed to Alabama over LSU. ------ Les Miles better get a tight grip on Louisiana best running back “Fournette"
if Les Miles loses him too, it will just be a matter of time before Les
Miles will decide to retire also. Man what a terrible turn of events
for LSU recruiting hopes. Not stopping Nick Saban from getting
the very best high school football players out of Louisiana simply can not be shrugged off.

Special to The Advocate

LSU students who were shouting obscene lyrics to some of the Tiger Band’s songs during the Texas A&M game
were surreptitiously videotaped by Athletic Department officials,
raising questions about free speech rights in the university’s effort to
crack down on the offensive behavior.
“It was kind of an
impromptu thing,” LSU Associate Athletic Director Michael Bonnette said,
and the videos were not necessarily taken to incriminate anyone.
“It was nothing more than trying to pinpoint locations and groups (who were shouting the obscene phrases).”
He
said the administrators planned to talk with the students, but he was
not sure whether disciplinary action could or would be taken against the
students.
The rowdy conduct has been a longtime problem — even
captured on national television broadcasts — that led the university to
remove from the Golden Band of Tiger Land’s playlist those songs most likely to get obscene treatment from some fans.
But this year, in an effort to re-energize student spirit, they brought back the songs.
“We
felt like … the atmosphere in Tiger Stadium hadn’t been the same this
year,” Bonnette said, so they mounted a Tradition Matters campaign,
trying to keep school spirit clean.
SHAME,
SHAME SHAME on The Advocate for using a picture of the Tiger Band
instead of one from the student section or elsewhere. Tiger Band was
happy to be finally allowed play certain banned songs this past season
because those songs had always been part of Tiger Football tradition.
Unfortunately the campaign to keep it clean and honor tradition didn't
take and who knows if the songs will ever be played again. Using a
picture of the band in this story was careless and thoughtless at best.
Your newspaper owes the Tiger Band a printed apology.
What
the administration fails to realize is that the student section makes
up lewd lyrics to ANY song. It doesn't make any sense to ban one
particular song or stop playing new songs. Its better than having stupid
midnight church bells, guns and roses and commercials blasting from
the pa system all game long (or just having a giant Jumbotron like they
do at Mississippi State).
Why
would you use a picture of the BAND for this article? It leads you to
believe that you are talking about the band being the bad guys. They
are the ones that want to play the music and totally cant stand when the
student section disregards requests by the school to not use foul
language !!
After
my graduation in 1983, I wound up at a UofH basketball game with a
friend. I couldn't believe what I saw. The place was totally quiet
all through the game. It wasn't the mayhem I had experienced yelling
"Tiger Bait" as the opponents walked into Tiger Stadium or the Assembly
Center. I loved the experience I had at LSU. WE ALL get into the game
and yes, kids will be kids. When they start throwing beer on the fans
from the opponents, then I think we need some changes and people need to
get thrown outta games. You know….like the Tulane fans. Until
then….lettem be kids and yeah….they're gonna do stupid stuff….just like
we did at that age!
As far as the University goes. I agree with
Austin and some others. When you start holding student athletes to the
same standards as you do their fans, then you can do something about
this. And seriously…..isn't it time for some of the administration to
get that much needed Stickectomy?
If
the idiots in the administration would realize that by saying you can't
do it, it makes people want to do it more, there would be no problem.
Also if the athletic dept thinks "you suck" is a vulgar phrase then they
need a reality check. Funny it's ok to have criminal records, have bar
fights and curb stomp people, go to casinos with fake ids
Use
counterfeit money, fail drug tests, and cheat on exams, and still play
on the field. But students can't yell what they want.
How many times on tv do you see the mouth of les miles, players, and other coaches saying what the f***
Part
of the reason for the ticket price increase is to cover some of the
academic shortfalls in the budget. I find that hilarious. So they're
telling us the government yet again is screwing shit up and they need a
private organization to help them? Also over paying your coaches surely
helps keep cost down as well
Is
the music any worse than the fans in the stand cussing a call or a
play?(I'm one of then) Is L$U going to video-tape them to and start
issuing fines or suspending the paying customer? Besides, your
definition of 'obscene' is going to be different from mine. Which one is
right?
Andree
TwoDat - Your definition of obscene is different from others, thus
proving my point. Either way, L$U has no right to video tape fans with
the intent of singling out foul language.
Tony
Wilson LSU has the right to eject anyone they please from a sporting
event. The chant is an embarrassment to the university and one that I,
and THOUSANDS of others do not want to hear. .
At
the price LSU charges for tickets people should be able to shout almost
anything they want --it's a free country, remember freedom of speech.
People pay unusually large admission fees but don't have the right to
cheer or voice their excitement -wow. LSU is getting worse and worse.
Instead of writing the rules specific to an item the university wants to
bend the rules to meet an item. Not showing a lot of university type
thinking. But, it's okay to let someone break the rules as long as that
person is a good football player, that person can actually break the law
and get away with it. It is very lame, very lame. Don't want obscenity,
then write "No shouting obscenities" into the rules and on the back of
the ticket.
