’Monkey Business’ is my choice.
“Hope is not a method.” - Common Military Saying
The above is a statement of pro activity. If any Soldier were to tell me that he hoped what he was briefing was going to come to fruition, that would be unacceptable. We in the Army do not have the luxury to ‘hope’ that things will end well. Hope will get us killed. Instead, we must plan and take action. Hope is not a method.
As a leader I can never ‘hope’ that my Soldiers have the proper training. I can never ‘hope’ that my Soldiers have the proper logistical supplies. I can never ‘hope’ that my Soldiers will survive the next mission. Hope is not a method; I live in the real world.
Fortune magazine is owned and published by Time/Warner, corporate parent of CNN among other media properties.
A “puff piece” on Hillary Clinton is hardly unexpected, and certainly not an endorsement representative of the majority of the nation’s business leaders.
“Poverty of goods is easily cured; poverty of the mind is irreparable.”
What would the polling data be on business people for Hillary. 15-20% maybe?
What’s going to happen to US industry when the global warming extremists like John McCain double the price of electricity? I would think all these factories will close and set up in countries where they aren’t scared of technology.
I dropped my subscription years ago because while they claimed to a be a business magazine they really only wanted to talk about women and minority owned businesses.
I got nothing against woman or minority owned businesses but I don’t see any reason to read about why they are such a great idea every issue.

Hillary Clinton represents big Marxist government. Business doesn’t love that.
Unfortunately, business has to cover its bets on both sides. They have to survive, no matter who is in DC.
Leftie political philosophy, from a DU commenter:
It doesn’t matter if it’s true or not. RUMOR IS TRUTH. The modern laws of media hype and political warfare have a useful tenet: Repeat ANYTHING or raise false concern over ANYTHING and it is likely to be planted in the conscious/subconscious of many voters.
r108,
I agree with you.
Hedging their bets, hoping that if HRC is elected she does not use her Marxists control to destroy them or at least put them at the bottom of the list.
HRC thinks of private business the same as she thinks of the military. She would destroy/control both.
You’re right The Whistler ... why pay for a subscription to tell you why women are such a great idea when I can tell you for free .. every day too if needed. wink
You don’t need to tell me EVERYDAY.

She would make them into her puppets.

I agree, good ideas and thoughtful discussion have noting to do with sex, geography, and at times your political persuasion.
BORING.....
Anna rolls her eyes.
The Wife takes my rolling my eyes VERY Seriously.

Anna,
You bring it up in every one of your posts.
Simply strapping a beaver between your legs does not make your comments any more potent.
The first time she rolled her eyes at me, I picked ‘em up and rolled ‘em back!Anna rolls her eyes.
For any voter trying to choose between the two candidates for commander in chief, there is no better test than this: When American strategy in a critical theater was up for grabs, John McCain proposed a highly unpopular and risky path, which he accurately predicted could lead to success. Barack Obama proposed a popular and politically safe route that would have led to an unnecessary and debilitating American defeat at the hands of al Qaeda.

Anna,
Maybe I was a bit harsh in my last comment to you.
Come by my place at your convenience and I will supply a complementary log for you to gnaw on.
Now now, Anna. No need to roll in the mud with the men.
Nah! If you want to make pay-per-view, you need to roll in the mud with other women!No need to roll in the mud with the men.

So you are pissed. Good.
This is a “big Boy” and “big Girl” place.
People in here will slice and dice you if that is all you have. They have done that to me and I have deserved it.
Coming in with these hyperbolic expressions of female superiority on a post about HRC is sure to draw a reaction to your comments.
You seem like a nice person and intelligent, but your constant harping and tangential diversions into personal biases’ based your ability to suffer PMS, endure menopause, and squatting to piss does nothing for me.
Love Ya, Stay in touch.
How about some cheese with that whine.
The “Hillary issue” isn’t about feminism, it’s about totalitarianism. Come to think of it, there’s not much difference between the two. Feminism wants women to dominate men, and Hillary wants to dominate everybody. She just uses the feminists to gain power.

R108,
“Feminism wants women to dominate men, and Hillary wants to dominate everybody.”
You got that right, as witnessed here, I love to tug at them.
This is is more about Hillary and the uninformed who support her Stalinist/Marxist form of government.
Nothing would suit Hillary better than to have a Clam bump...eerr...errr,,,,bake bake… on the East Lawn every night.
"Now now, Anna. No need to roll in the mud with the men.”
It’s only the perfume and makeup that separates the two.
likwidshoe and Proof apparently you failed to notice I wasn’t the one that did the mud flinging first. If you imagined I would let others disrespect me for unnecessary reasons you were mistaken.
Eneils Bailey, You have once again neglected to show me where I did such an injustice to merit such rudeness from you. Either you explain yourself or I will assume I was at no fault to your actuations and your actions were simply serving your own needs at my expense.
I am fairly confidant that no one else here shares your opinion about me and may I suggest that if you do continue having an issue with me then you’re welcome to email me at . Regardless of my gender your blatant arrogance towards me is uncalled for.
Anna,
Whatever you said, no thanks.
likwidshoe and Proof apparently you failed to notice I wasn’t the one that did the mud flinging first.
I didn’t fail to notice that.
But who cares? Why are you calling me out? I was just giving you a little good natured ribbing. Sheesh.
Anna,
Come on, be a big girl.
But don’t make some nebulous statements about your intellectual superiority based on gender.
You are a smart girl, not to be beaten down by the likes of me.
Come on.
That’s it. Kiss and make up. Just keep your mouths closed.
I have to keep my head turned, an old girl friend once blew me a kiss and I caught the clap.
Come to think of it.
I am not sure that is the kiss she blew that caused the problems.
I’m with ‘shoe on this one! I too, did not fail to notice. I merely hoped that a little levity might carry us past a moment of unprovoked rudeness.likwidshoe and Proof apparently you failed to notice I wasn’t the one that did the mud flinging first.
