He said there was accountability and denied certain actions were taking place, it turns out, that was false. That is why he gets blame. Enough to make you throw a vote away by voting third party.

LOL-Yes, it's too focused on my brain. New episode coming!!

New revelations undermine Obama administration http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-250_162-57598928/nsa-abuses-contradict-obama-and-congressional-claims-of-oversight/ It was bad enough when the "other guy" did this stuff.

I'm not one to provide practical advice on this, but on a related note: Freud's Interpretation of Dreams http://www.amazon.com/Interpretation-Dreams-Complete-Definitive-Text/dp/0465019773/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1376835153&sr=1-1&keywords=Sigmund+Freud+dreams :)

Thanks O!, :) I haven't heard of that one but I have it on my "wish list" to purchase the next time I get paid. Halley's Bible Commentary...

LOL-Escapism by any other means just wouldn't be the same. I love this theme that comes out through and through. It starts out mildly through the parties and then works to a libertine peak where you leave a path of destruction in the path of your car(quite literally in this book's case) It...

A video well worth the time-A celebration of V.N.

Brad Cranston......I can't get over Breaking Bad. Might need a grief counselor when its finally over Same........

Posting about Lolita must be against forum rules. :rofl

No, I never said anyone had to "Like" something automatically. Just that in order to have an informed opinion, it's best to have read the book you are talking about. A good question to ask. The beauty of a discussion is to consider both sides of the debate. One prominent scholar believes...

Brent, you rock. :buttrock

"ALL" the people included a salon writer who posted a huge caveat that you choose to ignore. A writer and a shrink who posits pure conjecture hardly constitute a mass of opinion, let alone, the right one. Oh, was the quote mistaken? Let me know how I specifically put in the wrong words from...

So you are running with a generalization of "popular opinion" that is devoid from a reading, any reading, of the book. In another thread, you were quick to criticize religious folks for being intolerant. This is no different. You are taking other people's words as gold instead of finding out...
