Nads in Fantasy Land. Called for lying AGAIN

[Skul]

Nads is once again leaving out important details in order to further her agenda.
Seems some of the DUmmies have caught on to her tricks, and now call her out.
Perhaps not all of the DUmmies, aren't quite that DUmb.
The result is fairly predictable.

Tourism is our number one export, per POTUS today at Disneyworld....Last edited Thu Jan 19, 2012, 06:43 PM USA/ET - Edit history (2)

Decline watch... we just crossed another point. >snort< (Yes that is part of the LONG TERM TRENDS we are observing, for the benefit of those who have missed the at times long trend articles)

It used to be industrial goods...(that we were always pushing)

Check.

Anybody is really curious there are places on the web seriously discussing this subject by the way... and I do not mean fringe places either. I mean very much ELITE places.

Per Joephilly suggestion, here is a link to Decline Watch

http://blog.foreignpolicy.com/category/topic/decline_watch

Foreign Policy is one of those elite of elite pubs, and have been running this trends spotting as it were, for a while. It makes for, at times, depressing reading. And no, they are not reds or blues, it is targeted at foreign service pros and other specialists.  

Another tipping point crosser pops up.

2. We crossed that point long ago from a manufacturing economy to a service economy. Sadly.

Definitely NEED to bring manufacturing back, but as long as the corporate entities thrive off cheap foreign labor it's not looking so good. Thankfully Obama saved the auto industry. Imagine America without an auto industry.

Still trying to figure this one out.

but as far as I can remember this is the first time I hear the POTUS sounding like insert President of Mexico here...  

Oops a daisy. The ride begins.

12. You mean POTUS did not highlight that one of our exports now is a SERVICE?

LIke oh insert developing economy here? I heard it very well thank you.

As I said, there are SERIOUS places that are discussing this very seriously. Those very SERIOUS places are not into team sports, between the red team and the blue team.

"Tourism is the #1 SERVICE that we export" ... did you miss the word SERVICE????

Here is the video ... go to the 1:50 point in the video and listen again ... up to the 2:20 or so mark. He is very clear.

29. Don't waste your typing skills pointing out that kind of error. It will generate some sort of

condescending remark, you will be threatened with an 'iggy', and any error you may have pointed out will remain, because you. just. simply. can. not. do. that.

35. Hey when we finally replace the 20 year old tv set

there is made in America sets right now, but that is another story.

This was more the... my ear is attuned to these messages from years of following the trends as an academic pursuit... and I mean second tier power trends.

This started, to be brutally honest, with Reagan... and the slow attacks on the Steel industry.

It accelerated to dizzying speeds after we invaded Iraq.

This is party independent, and in pretty serious places people are keeping an eye on it. I have posted articles on this here. Silly season is upon us, so I will continue to follow this interest of mine at other places. I can tell that this place is not the place to discuss this anymore.

I think man bytes dog is the preferred diet at this point. And since I gave up sports, and the red team and the blue team matter little when it comes to things like this... we are talking one to two generation trends... not a year electoral cycle, we are talking of two very different time lines.

And as I said, when it comes to this, being members of a team does not work.

Suffice it to say we are NOT number one on more than just a few major indices.

I hate DU3. It's so hard to keep the date and time in a copied post.

Someone with a really beloved suckup mole should ask Skimmer to go back to DU2 and stop this nonsense.

You better get your fill of Obamanaut.

Skimmer never canned him, probably because Skimmer is smart enough to enjoy how he needled the most obnoxious DUmpmonkey in history.

You know every time he piped up, nutcase nadin and her sycophants had the alert buttons smoking, but he survived.

Now, with the MIR team liquidation squads composed entirely of raving moonbats, he's not long for this forum.

I doubt Obamanaut lasts long enough to see the crocuses sprout.

If he does, he'll be like Nicholson in the last scenes of Cuckoo's Nest.

This is from our far-flung correspondent AllahJesus via my clarebootheluce gmail; I won't bother to make a screen-print, because everybody here now pretty much knows about him.

This might, or might not, be along the same lines Tucker suggested:

Greetings,

I had mentioned in my last email to you that I would periodically stay in touch to contribute to CC since I'm not interested in registering (I read it all the time but think I'd spend too much time were I to register) and a topic has arisen that I think I should have something to contribute of value to the discussion.

I was reading the board tonight and saw a post by GOBUCKS which was complaining about the date and time of posts not being selectable. You and others have affirmed this point.

Luckily, however, there is an easy solution to your problem.

It's true if you follow the normal procedure for copy and paste that the datestamp will not be selectable with your mouse. This problem is easy to get around, however, once you realize that if you start your selection at the datestamp instead of the name of the primitif, everything will be copied over, including the date. Don't start clicking and dragging on the name of the primitif. Use the "Response to XXX" text instead.

For those interested, here is the geekspeak explanation of what's going on:

The reason for this is that the datestamp in the web page source code, as created by Elad, is actually above the rest of the post. Thus, when you click and drag on the other text, the datestamp does not become selected since text selection the way you're doing it only selects stuff below your starting point.

It appears that Elad did this unusual coding arrangement because he did not wish to use HTML tables in DU3. Instead, he's doing everything with <p> and <div>, presumably to speed up loading times. The end result is that if one wishes to copy and paste the full context of postings, one must follow the backwards procedure I described above.

Kind regards,
AllahJesus

Apparently one copies from the bottom up, instead of the top down, or right to left, instead of left to right, on a comment, and the date shows up.

[GOBUCKS]

Yeah, you can get the date if you copy from the bottom up, then wiggle the cursor a little to the right when you get to the top, and it does show up above the DUmmy's name when you paste. But it's really sensitive and time-consuming to jiggle it just right.

When Skimmer lays off the elusive and enigmatic one, I for one will smile. He couldn't code my DVR.

[Skul]

Easiest to just start to the mouse arrow just above and left of the upper left corner of the comment.
Highlight as normal.
No fuss, no muss.

I've tried various ways, but there's a lot of deleting one has to do, to get rid of the extraneous matter so as to make a campfire more readable.

That's why I always used Explorer when copying-and-pasting from Skins's island, rather than Firefox, which I usually use.  Explorer picks up only that which is visible, while Firefox picks up a whole lot of hidden matter which needs deleted, again, so as to make a more-aesthetic thread.

Sometimes I'm in a rush to stock up new inventory for the DUmpster, and deleting extraneous matter slows me down.  So I do what I do, despite that I'd rather that Elad hurry up and fix it so that the date's easily copied.

That works, I think, for the OP, but for subsequent posts it misses the date and time.

42. Tourism has its place but I feel sorry for any area that must rely on that alone. When I was an

archivist at a museum we promoted tourism as part of our diversified economy. The small communtiy had logging, manufacturing, and tourism/hospitality. That seems a better way to go for communities wherever they are.  

[NHSparky]

Hey, nads!  Reliance on tourism?

You mean like these places?

SeaWorld
Legoland
SD Zoo
SD Padres/Chargers
SD Trolley
Gaslamp
Old Town
Cabrillo National Monument
Del Mar racetrack
SD Wild Animal Park
Balboa Park

Those are just the ones off the top of my head.  How much money do you think they contribute to the greater San Diego economy?
