Yep, just who do they expect will go along with that?

My guess a little of both but heavy on insane.

I understand that one. You'd think S. Dakota warm even hot and in the spring and summer it is. In the winter though the same temperatures with a wind you never forget. You hear it howling between the houses.

Don't pay the bill, let them call you. If the problem still isn't solved say the stuff is on the telephone line, that they had you h*****g on so long you lost your temper and threw it. I would without losing my temper. They'll probably send a guy to pick it up. Problem solved?

Website WND.com
WorldNetDaily (WND) is an American news and opinion website and online news aggregator which has been described as "fringe" and far right[5] as well as politically conservative.[6] The website is known for promoting falsehoods and conspiracy theories.[14]

The site was founded in May 1997 by Joseph Farah, who is its current editor-in-chief and CEO.[15][deprecated source] The website publishes news, editorials, and opinion columns, while also aggregating content from other publications.



History
In 1997 Joseph Farah created the news website WorldNetDaily[15] as a division of the Western Journalism Center. It was subsequently spun off in 1999 as a for-profit organization[16][deprecated source] with the backing of $4.5 million from investors, Farah owning a majority of the stock. The site describes itself as "an independent news company dedicated to uncompromising journalism".[15] In 1999, WorldNetDaily.com, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware[16] with offices in Cave Junction, Oregon.[17]

The website gained notoriety for stoking false "birther" conspiracy theories about President Barack Obama.[18]

In 2018, Farah wrote about WorldNetDaily's financial problems, saying it faced an "existential threat."[18] Farah ceased contributing to the site after his March 12, 2019, column; the site announced a few weeks later that he had suffered a major stroke.[18] In April 2019, The Washington Post reported that WorldNetDaily suffered from declining revenue and diminishing readership.[18] Farah blamed the website's financial woes on what he claimed was suppression by powerful technology companies.[18]

Content
The WND website provides news, editorials, letters to the editor, forums, videos and conducts a daily poll. Its CEO Joseph Farah has said that WND provides "the broadest spectrum of opinion anywhere in the news business", but acknowledges "some misinformation by columnists".[19] WND's content is predominantly conservative.[6][20] Besides providing articles written by its own staff, the site links to news from other publications.

Notable staff includes Jerusalem Bureau Chief Aaron Klein, former White House correspondent Lester Kinsolving, and staff writer Jerome Corsi. Its commentary pages feature editorials by the site's founder Joseph Farah, as well as by commentators including 2016 Republican P**********l candidate Ben Carson, Pat Buchanan, Ann Coulter, David Limbaugh, Chuck Norris, Walter E. Williams, Ilana Mercer, Bill Press, and Nat Hentoff.[21][deprecated source]

Controversies
The Washington Post describes WND's political lean as alt-right or far-right.[22][7][10][23] This view is shared by Michael Massing of the Columbia Journalism Review.[24] The Southern Poverty Law Center labels WorldNetDaily as an antigovernment extremist group.[25]

Clark Jones libel lawsuit (2000–2008)
On September 20, 2000, WND published an article[26][deprecated source] saying that Clark Jones, a Savannah, Tennessee car dealer, a fund-raiser for then-Vice President Al Gore in his p**********l campaign, had interfered with a criminal investigation, had been a "subject" of a criminal investigation, and was listed on law enforcement computers as a "dope dealer." It implied that he had ties to others involved in alleged criminal activity. The authors later put forward the theory that the publication of this article, as well as other WND articles that were critical of Gore, contributed significantly to Gore losing his home state of Tennessee that November.[27][deprecated source]

In 2001, Clark Jones filed a lawsuit against WND; the reporters, Charles C. Thompson II and Tony Hays; the Center for Public Integrity, which had underwritten Thompson and Hays' reporting on the article and related ones; and various Tennessee publications and broadcasters whom he accused of repeating the claim, arguing these entities had committed libel and defamation.[28][29] The lawsuit was scheduled to go to trial in March 2008;[30][deprecated source] but, on February 13, 2008, WND announced that a confidential out-of-court settlement had been reached with Jones.[31][deprecated source] A settlement statement jointly drafted by all parties in the lawsuit stated that a Freedom of Information Act request showed that the allegations had been false, and that WND had misquoted sources.[31]

Singularity

I am waiting for speaking in tongues and rattlesnake handling in the halls of Congress. If you allow one kind of prayerful expression, then isn't all established prayer practice admissible?

You know, the spaghetti monster people and the Satanic Temple people....

Careful about claiming Secular Humanism is a religion or they get a turn also, and can incorporate a lecture about the beauty of evolutionary science into the invocation....

Muslim call to prayer......

Hari Krishna.... With dancing....

Wonder from which direction that walkout storm might originate?

The Founding Parental Units discussed this, guys.....

no propaganda please Loc: moon orbiting the third rock from the sun

We have been blessed with a number of good friends who have helped a lot, particularly the neighbors who have the dairy goats. I feel a little guilty because I had promised to do the shots on their yearling does and totally forgot until yesterday, but we got them all done last night, so they will be ready to go to their new homes with other people who have dairy goats in a couple of weeks. Pete is helping select several whethers to work with for a couple of 4H children. He is having a blast helping with the training process. Right now NPP is getting our accounting up to date and some bills paid. If it were up to me, we would have been arrested years ago on income tax evasion, not my forte at all.
Next on my agenda is getting the training classes ready to teach come April, and working on the new puppy, who is a hoot but almost 75 pounds now and a lot of energy. What keeps us both alive is having too much to do and knowing we have to get it done. Being sedentary is not healthy, I learned that years ago.
Take care nad stay healthy yourself.

When we lived in Casper, WY the winter wind would blow 30 to 40 MPS (sometimes higher) for days. It usually stopped between 2:00 and 4:00 AM and wake most of the town up because it suddenly got so quiet.Often the wind was so strong it sucked large windows out of downtown businesses where the wind was funneled between the taller buildings. How in the world did we humans ever get used to those conditions? We travel today in heated 4X4 vehicles with survival gear. The cowboys and Cavalry rode horses. In the winter the troops preferred their bacon uncooked. Never could make any sense out of that.

As I understand your comment you're claiming this incident never happned?

padremike Loc: Phenix City, Al

Hey Geo! I'm still waiting for your response! What's the point of your comment if you believe I've posted f**e news. Defend yourself or fall on your sword. The NYT and many other papers have been taken to task for f**e news. I remember when the National Inquirer was famous for discovering aliens amongst us. Then something happened and they became a go to source. Have no idea what they're like today or if they're still in existence. The point here is that the Wiki Bible may keep WMD hog tied yet today it doesn't mean a thing. Who do you go to when you want to know the latest UFO sighting?

Good time for the conservative legislators to clean up the mess . If the i***ts leave , V**E!!!!
