How long can you go without a meal?

[Cyrano]

There's a rule of thumb that says you can go three minutes without air, three days without water, and three weeks without food before you die.

So, Mr. President, how long are the unemployed supposed to wait before they get some help. The air is there. The water is there. But the food is the problem.

You've helped Wall Street. You've helped the banks. You've helped those who really don't need that much help.

When are you going to help those who are doing anything and everything possible to avoid week three for their families?

2. Pass meal mandate. Force main provider of family to feed their progeny at least once a day.

Failure to comply will result in jail time. Perfect solution.

4. Is this a way to Marshall law enforcement ? He's looking more like an Agent

than a president so far who does he represent?I voted for him easily ,defending him is harder.

[The Doctor.]

5. ...

:wtf:

Which 'Marshall' are you referring to?

[orpupilofnature57]

9. The imminent, unless shit changes, one.

[Deja Q]

13. The Marshall who had brother Will and daughter Holly...

That alien funky thing might be Dubya, who knows...

15. Bwhahahaaa....

:rofl:

I used to watch that show as a kid!

[Webster Green]

7. Did you mean "Martial Law"?

OK, now that that's straightened out, WTF are you talking about? :wtf:

[orpupilofnature57]

8. I know the term ,thanks. What I meant was inventing way's to facilitate it.

Sorry the hackneyed phrase blurred your comprehension , how about "necessity for" we straight now?

[The Doctor.]

10. I think what we're trying to figure out here

is just what link between Obama and martial law you're trying to make.

Oh, and {oe}; it's unnecessary to make 'ways' possessive.

[orpupilofnature57]

17. First thanks , It seems from day one When he said " No lobbyist need apply "

it's been everything Alex Jones say's about the New World Order ,and president Obama seems to work toward it as opposed to against it.He hasn't done one concrete thing to assure us our country is recuperating from the Bush years.

[The Doctor.]

21. I too am a little worried that the problem is bigger than him.

I do believe he wants to better the lives of the people, but the obstacles may be too harsh.

[orpupilofnature57]

26. No disparagement to him at all ,just discouragement.

[pinto]

23. (aside) He and his ranting are beyond credible. And discouraged here.

As a heads up - We routinely remove citations from his website. We have no desire to provide them with bandwidth. Thanks.

37. I've seen him refuted a few times.

The problem is he and his followers are conspiracy theorists. As such they take refutations to be proof of the conspiracy that was refuted. There is no proof they will accept. None.

If you're actually interested in seeing the man refuted, JREF flat out hammered him. (James Randi Educational Foundation)

[truedelphi]

11. Same here. Although the guy is far more personable, that is now my greater fear.

Those who are asnine are called on their nonsense. Obama is merely praised. He's the darling of Wall Street, and he is about to be the darling of the military too.

[jpak]

22. An Agent? - like those Matrix dudes?

and what is all this BS about "Marshall Law"?

Glenn Beck is an idiot ya know.

[orpupilofnature57]

28. Yes he is ,I've only seen coverage of him on the news ,Agent, as a facilitator.

[jpak]

30. and native-born Kenyan too I suppose, and has 666 tattooed on his body somewhere

:evilgrin:

[orpupilofnature57]

32. I voted for the man ,I don't think he's the anti- Christ and I'm not a xenophobe

like I said before I'm discouraged ,if that doesn't make me a racist ,otherwise everything is hunky dory.

[Sirveri]

12. The longest I ever went was three days

then I cracked and just had to eat something.

[orpupilofnature57]

18. I remember when I was a kid with the news keeping track of Irish prisoners hunger strikes..

They would go blind at some point.MSM would never cover that today ,just like if most of us ever saw an interrogation ,we would be horrified.

14. Here's an interesting fact

The ARRA isn't all construction, this is through the ARRA funded Food Nutrition Project in Concord

50. LMAO!

:rofl:

[jpak]

20. Yes - Obama did not sign that bill to extend unemployment benefits last week

and Obama cut all food stamp benefits to the unemployed

nor did anyone get hired under Obama's American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009

what a stupid post

[Cyrano]

40. Go a few months without a job. Then tell me how stupid this post is

[jpak]

44. O' woe is me! I blame Obama! Waaa!!1111 Waaa!111

more stupidity

46. Bush is the cause of your all your problems - not Obama

sorry to crash your pity party but it is pitiful

[FarCenter]

24. Roughly two days for every pound you are overweight

So someone 45 pounds overweight is carrying around a 90 day food supply.

[Liberal_in_LA]

42. lol. You are kidding, right?

[FarCenter]

49. No, each pound is 3500 calories, and a person can survive on 1750 per day

Basal metabolism is below that for most people.

Actually, you would probably need to consume about 900 / day in food, in order to get the necessary proteins, essential fats, vitamins, etc in order not to loose too much muscle tissue or suffer from deficiency diseases.

But in that case you could last about half a year with no ill effects other than losing the 45 pounds.

[C_Lawyer09]

25. I'm anxiously awaiting the membership of the Dec. job summit

If Obama and his cabinet are smart, they will count a diversity and breadth of experience within the membership. People that know about employment, the production economy, economic theory (and no, sorry, not just Keynesian theory)small business owners etc. not just like minded attorneys and government employees.

[Yuugal]

31. Do you mean the Pacific Rim Nafta summit?

I'm sure that is gonna help us a lot. NOT

[C_Lawyer09]

35. No, I havent heard about that

I wasn't in favor of NAFTA or CAFTA.

[Yuugal]

Every single day Obumble becomes more and more rightwing. He sure talks a great game, but all good con men do.

[ddeclue]

27. It depends on a lot of factors: your activity level, your BMI for instance.

:P

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

29. I guess this accounts for the widespread famine across the united states.

Millions starving to death. Corpses littering the streets.


Jesus fucking Christ, this is stupid.

[babylonsister]

34. But it's all Obama's fault-everyone knows it! nt

[Cyrano]

38. No, it's all Bush's fault.

But Obama is doing too little, too late to help those in dire need.

[ProSense]

43. "But Obama is doing too little, too late" What utter bullshit

Basic Needs Assistance for the Poor Advances Economic Recovery and Employment Goals

The ARRA isn't all construction, this is through the ARRA funded Food Nutrition Project in Concord

[Enrique]

39. Obama recently signed a huge farm bill

with a substantial increase in food stamps funding. Also the stimulus had some spending on child nutrition programs.

Also he just signed an extension to unemployment benefits.

[Cyrano]

41. So I guess everything is just fine now.

Check out what FDR did during the Great Depression.

Aside from Wall Street and bankers, far too many Americans are experiencing what this country went through in the 1930s.

I believe that Obama is well intentioned, but he's doing far too little. Even though far too many will admit it, our country is in an economic disaster. And we need far more government help.

[Enrique]

47. is there some specific proposal you want Obama to support?

something that a member of Congress, or some advocacy group, is working on, that you would like Obama to get behind?

[Cyrano]

48. No. I'd just like to see him lead us out of the swamp we are in

[orpupilofnature57]

51. been here since 04 ,the castigation has been everything but enlightening

have fun ,see you all in heaven, even though most of you don't believe it, see ya.
