stuttering stanley,stuttering stanley, STUTTERING STANLEY!!!!!

I feel bad about the news guy because he has no idea what he's talking about :P

[qncsc]

this must have been boring for kaku, it is like talking to a wall or his dog for him. kaku is on auto-pilot on this.

horrible interview!

hartmann is way way way...out of his depth!

good experience for hartmann. perhaps it will humble him so that he can learn to look at alternate perspectives, instead of being so derisive. and this is kaku baby-talking and excludes the very difficult math to support these ideas.

[Tippersnore]

I want to know about the string bean dick theory as well.

A little hint to the GOP pundit:

No fundings can go through without Congress approval.

GOP ONLY wants to spend money on taxcuts for the rich and the military industrial complex and shut verything else down. In the name of  Ayn Rands Utopia.

And she lived off SS and Medicare the last few years of her life...

[realitique]

Democritus was on the right track, but he was wrong. So-called "empty" space is brimming with energy.

But on another note: Mr. Hartmann, please, watch the googly eyes. They don't work on TV.

Regarding Thom's "Daily Take," read his book UNEQUAL PROTECTION.

If we don't change the way we interact with the economy, we will never see Dr. Michio's predicted great inventions. We had such predictions in the 50's followed by the corp shelved inventions of the 60's-70's which would have allowed these predictions to become true. We need a human supportive systems, not greed stimulated/manipulated ones. The oligarchs presently rule. Once the people figure this out, things will change. Will that be with a guillotine, or mutually agreed system change?

Why don't the RWers talk ab out the 40 billion dollars subsidies to oil companies whom don't give a shit about safety?

How about the tax refunds that corporations are getting despite the fact that they don't pay taxes?
