The difference is she is right.

When someone gets in my face and yells" F you you #unt" my reaction would be to punch them in the teeth . That's not sucker punching . But maybe I'm just not as passive as most .

Oh ... Did you hear there are 147 FBI agents looking into Hillarys emails ?
That's 1% of the FBI looking into something a little more important then some little entitied #^&#^&#^&#^& stirrer getting what he deserves .

If they need that many agents looking into this, then the the issue must be small and hard to find.

That is not what the old guy did to the guy being led out by the cops. Pure and simple sucker punch.

My purpose is clarity. I don't think the story is real. Nebe's weld is holding also...

In a way you've stumbled onto it.

The FBI wants to bring this to a head but given the election needs to do it quickly. They have to show due diligence which requires people power.

I'd wager Buck's math is way off though. The FBI employees over 35,000 people and an agent isn't the same thing as a special agent. That 147 people are in some way involved doesn't' seem to be that big of a deal.

The FBI doesn't give a crap about the election .
You missed your calling as a fiction writer as you just make stuff up based in zero fact . I hate to break it to you but the FBI doesn't just throw 147 special agents on an investigation unless there is a good reason .
Actually maybe you should write comedy

Funny, you accuse me of fiction then state the 147 number are special agents. Can you cite a source for this that's credible?

Agent isn't the same thing as special agent, but at least I do find your selection of brietbart as credible a bit ironic.

you can only fake it for so long.....

The Fed, with its seven years of zero rates and $3.7 trillion worth of money printing, has faced criticism for being too market sensitive. Citigroup's Lee called Yellen's speech "a remarkable transfer to markets of the FOMC's authority to set future policy rates."

For investors, the question ahead will be how long the Fed can continue to keep the market afloat. Ultra-accommodative monetary policy is showing its limits in other countries, and Yellen's narrative that the dovish tone is being inspired by global weakness, not in the U.S., is gathering skeptics.

"If anything, I would say the global problems have subsided since December," Euro Pacific's Schiff said. "The real problem is the U.S. economy. The U.S. economy is weakening,"

Schiff said he thinks the Fed may attempt a rate hike this year, but any efforts at tightening won't last.

"The economy already is in recession," he said. "The question is, when is the Fed going to acknowledge it."

Take a look at the economy when Obama took office and look at it now. If people actually think that it has become worse under his watch, they have their head so far up their ass they should look up because they might be able to see out their mouth.
It's not humming along like it was in 2000 but it's close.

the only way to go was up, no one is suggesting it is worse but the pain we'll feel after phonying the numbers for 7+ years may be worse.......if you think continuing to paper over slow growth with zero interests rates and Fed printing of cash will not have serious repercussions..... your head is even further beyond the light of day....if you wonder why the middle class is disappearing...these policies crush the middle class .

Nebe, unemployment is down (WAY down), and the stock market is way up. Good things.

But median wages are lower than when he took office. It's not every day that median wages go down over a 7 year period. He added more debt than all 43 receding presidents combined, I think? And he did nothing, absolutely nothing, to shore up SS and Medicare. More people are on food stamps. I think more people are living in poverty?

There are important measures that are better now. And there are more important measures that are worse.

Not even close to 2000.

Oh, and GDP growth (one of the most important measures there is), has been pathetic. Slowest recovery from a recession, ever. Obama owns some of that.
