Navydads Political Talk Rules and Guidelines

1. Whether Republican or Democrat we are all on the same team - The Navy's
2. Name calling or threats to any member because of their political stance will not be tolerated
3. Respect each others political views and debate them in a civil manner
4. Only a healthy debate will be allowed on this site
5. With the rules in place please feel free to join in on the debate

John and Luis have set a wonderful example of how we should debate things in a civil manner. I just want to be up front with everyone who participates in this discussion that I will not let this get out of hand. I want to warn everyone that this site is here to benefit us with our children's journey through the Navy not to slam each others political beliefs.

That being said I do understand that the next commander in chief will be relevant to us Navy parents. I encourage healthy debates when it comes to politics. It's what makes this country so great. We can have our own beliefs and we get to vote for whom we want in office. All I ask is for everyone to debate in a healthy manner not in a negative manner. Express your views and let others express theirs. I do not want this to be a negative response to this candidate or a negative response to that candidate. We all know that political talks can quickly become shouting matches and this is not the site for it.

Whichever candidate wins this election will be the one that we need to stand behind and support because this person will be our children's commander in chief. In the military it doesn't come down to whether you are a Republican or Democrat. In a time of war it comes down to protect your brothers in arms no matter what branch of military they are in or what their political, religious beliefs are. Navy, Marines, Airforce, Army and Coast Guard when it comes down to it will fight side by side to defend this great country's freedoms no matter where they come from.

Sincerely, Navydads Creator

Comment by Mike Stark on May 7, 2010 at 3:20pm: Bureau of Labor Statistics

The summary at the top of April's report

"Nonfarm payroll employment rose by 290,000 in April, the unemployment rate edged up to 9.9 percent, and the labor force increased sharply, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Job gains occurred in manufacturing, professional and business services, health care, and leisure and hospitality. Federal government employment also rose, reflecting continued hiring
of temporary workers for Census 2010."

So someone must of assembled all these reports into Excel and generated the graphic. You are welcome to dig and check the data if you want.

Real GDP grew 5.6% in Q4 2009 and 3.2% in Q1 2010. You could look it up. That still leaves us in a deep hole, but the numbers don't lie. The economy is beginning to recover. There's a long list of problems to deal with still, but getting turned around and moving in a positive direction is kind of a necessary condition for attacking these problems.

Comment by ctyankee on May 7, 2010 at 2:12pm: What is the source of that data? Is that the indefensible "saved or created" statistic?

Comment by Mike Stark on May 7, 2010 at 11:39am: Discuss

Comment by ctyankee on May 7, 2010 at 7:56am: Hey Cora,

How can anyone have nuthin' to say in a political group??? When all else fails stand up and shout "Fifty four fourty or fight!" That is usually good for a laugh and gets the ball rolling again :^)

Comment by Robert Hartman on May 6, 2010 at 9:01pm: Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will have perverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government.
