Poor teddy cruz http://samuel-warde.com/2014/11/facebook-responses-ted-cruz-post-will-make-day/
never has anyone been so willfully ignorant as our last prez. And they're both from Texas…..surprise!
I went through quite a few comments…not one supporter…Comcast needs to get busy and hire some trolls.
let’s see who shows up here to carry their water
Or in another case, perhaps a minimum number of inmates?
Does anyone know how the private prison industry is doing with that effort? Now that pot is legal, what will they use for entrapment purposes? Spanish surname? …type of shoes? Size of calves? Blogging activity?…. 😉
What's wrong with the Republican response to climate change and their criticism of the President's decision to take a small step toward common sense?
The reason America has a "rust belt" is that for a short term profit gain our capitalists refused to invest in new plants and technologies as our manufacturing infrastructure began to disintegrate after WWII.
And the reason America has so much internal resistance to doing the right thing about climate change and renewable energy is that our current capitalists have paid off daft politicians like Cory Gardner to lie about the issue for their short term profits at the expense of America's long term health.
Congratulations America's Capitalist Pigs: China is leading the way in how to best use capitalism for the benefit of its people.
Oh, and why are Republicans so intent on protecting an energy source that even Coal Barons like Bill Koch say is obsolete and not worth the effort?
+1….Thnx
Republicans now silent on US energy loan program http://www.dailykos.com/story/2014/11/13/1344565/-NPR-After-Solyndra-Loss-U-S-Energy-Loan-Program-Turning-A-Profit
Wonder what happens to Dem favorables when Obama declares Executive Amnesty? Thud.
Since you are full of shit achole and don't know what you are talking about. The President isn't proposing all out amnesty – nobody is you incompetent fool. It is a full package of immigration reform , like the bipartisan bill already passed in the Senate. How far will republicans drop when they oppose this legislation and sound like racists? What will con man cory and coffman do – bend over to their racist base or do what is the decent thing to do? This sets up nicely for the Democrats in 2016 http://thinkprogress.org/immigration/2014/11/04/3588311/majority-americans-voters-want-immigration-reform/
Not all Dem party leaders are morons. Wellington Webb has a clue. So does Ed Rendell. Here is what Rendell had to say about the Dem excuses.
Rendell said attempts to blame much of the Democrats’ performance on an unfavorable election map are “baloney.”
“Iowa’s not a bad map. That’s a purple state. It’s a state a Democrat held and it’s a state Obama carried,” he said. “We got beat in Colorado, a state with a Democratic governor and a state Obama carried twice.”
Yeah some red wave you have their achole – Democrats retained the governorship and the state house and the 3 CD's they had. The pro gun nuts from the recall lost and the gop won the state senate by one member and that will probably return to Democratic control in 2016. Udall ran a bad campaign and lost – some wave – where is that 150,000 vote majority that you promised? Take care of that nasty rash achole it is effecting your ability to have any rational thought.
And Colbert discovers Dr. Chaps:

Glad he isn't a Colorado elected official!!! (Oh, wait. . .) Hey, AC, I'd like to see you defend this RWNJ.
For every creak in the economy, Republicans say we need to cut taxes. For every creak in the electorate, Democrats obsessively move further right. Both are wrong.
If anyone's interested, and is using a modern version of Firefox or Chrome to browse the interwebs, I'm currently enjoying an AC and Moddy free experience on the site care of an add-in and a little CSS (styling for web pages). For example today's thread looks, in part, like this for me:
Thanks I will try that. It will make this site so much more pleasant.
That is the best thing I've ever seen . . .
. . . I so want one of those.
I wrote up some instructions here. Again, it's only for Firefox and Chrome folks (I don't use IE or Safari).
I entered this:
.comment-author-Andrew Carnegie > div > .comment-body {display:none!important}
and he still shows up.
Where did I go wrong?
Hello, you've reached technical support. Please state which browser you are using so that we can more quickly help with your issue.
Actually, I can answer that. I set it up planning for you to copy and paste. If you don't, you'll have to remember to include the dash between names: .comment-author-andrew-carnegie
Chrome.
Added the dash, he's still here.
So, you have the two lines pasted in the code section. Did you set the "Applies to" to URLs on the domain and coloradopols.com?
Still stymied:

Sorry. Missed he first time. Try all in lowercase like mine.
So his name is here, but his posts are blank. Is that how it works?
Thanks
Yes, as i showed in my image, I only block the comment body. It was my preference to know that the abomination had occurred but not to see its result. If the name that must not be spoken must also not be seen, that can be done too.
Yeah. Couldn't see your image through my work filter.
Thanks
Well that didn't work
.comment-author-Andrew-Carnegie > div >
.comment-body {display:none!important}
and coloradopols.com in URL and URLs in domain
Thanks
Followed your instructions. Works beautifully. First time ever to scroll Pols without cringing every time I see one of the do turds' name.
Re: "do". Delete it or add a g. Either works.
AWESOME — worked immediately!!!
No more AC — yeefreekinghaw !!!
I owe you more than words can say, buddy, but I'm gonna' say "thanks" anyway !!!
What is the Firefox Add-on?
Worked like a charm and, thanks to your excellent guidance, P'Cat, a breeze to install.
Now I'll never have to read another filthy word from these two vile, immoral, slimy, hypocritical pieces of shit. Fan-dam-TASTIC!
Many many thanks, my friend.
Hmm….

Oil’s dive set to transform LNG market

The downward spiral in oil prices is poised to shake up liquefied natural gas, a critical source of energy in east Asia and an alternative to Russian gas supplies in Europe.
LNG, as the fuel is known, is gas chilled into a liquid state so it can be poured into domed tankers for shipment abroad. Japan, South Korea and China are the top buyers.
The 30 per cent plunge in crude since the middle of this year, to below $80 a barrel this week, is likely to have a big effect on LNG. Many Asian customers are locked into contracts linked to the Japan Custom-cleared Crude index, or JCC (nicknamed the Japanese Crude Cocktail). By early next year, crude’s slide should be reflected in LNG prices.

Sen Baumgardner, Majority Whip.
Love the last line – ". . . but we also have to make sure that these people have jobs to feed their family and put food on the table.” I wonder if he really said put food on your family, and the Steamboat newspaper just cleaned it up . . .
We are so done with the whole Ebola / ISIS thing:
