I doubt it very much (except if you ask people about historical facts and figures)Course the "study" was an anecdote as such, what's funny is that a real study would have given even worst results.That explains the entire American policy and politics, basically "what's going on" there.What explains the " entire American policy and politics"? A "real" study that wasn't actually made?Are you rjh in disguise?

Re: What's Going on in the Americas? Reply #29 – 2014-04-11, 05:49:27 The above picture I came across today is funny and also an interesting one because it tells a lot about Mr Obama.Anybody guessing what I'm referring to?

Re: What's Going on in the Americas? Reply #33 – 2014-04-11, 10:23:43 Does anybody of you have a writing desk at home? Did anybody of you work at a writing desk for a while?Nope, the telephone on the left side is OK, so you can make notices (with your right hand) while phoning.Nope, to enjoy your coffee in a coup is the courtly way to do it.Hint: If you have a writing desk at home something might be placed differently as in the picture above.Something dear and important to you
Re: What's Going on in the Americas? Reply #34 – 2014-04-11, 10:27:03 Actually I have a bunch of pictures and cards behind me, not in front of me. But taking notes with your right hand? What an odd idea.

Normally, people put the picture of someone dear on the desktop so he/she can sometimes look at it and not behind his/her ass on a radiator or whatever.Only a showman will pile up such (and so many) pictures that way Quote from: Jimbro3738 on 2014-04-11, 10:32:38He's left handed, so the coffee cup....I thought he is right handed. I've checked now. Indeed he is left handed. So you have been right about the telephone even so it wasn't what I had in mind. I hope he won't strangle himself with the phone cable during work

He's a showman.We seem to have a bad habit of electing showmen. Maybe it's a requirement of television, you have to put on a good show to even be considered. It's been suggested that some of our greatest presidents never could have been elected if they had to run in front of TV cameras like they do today.

Re: What's Going on in the Americas? Reply #48 – 2014-04-15, 06:34:19 Jay Carney is Obama's spokesman and quite often he make remarks on Russian propaganda. So far so good.The funny thing is that his kitchen is decorated with Soviet propaganda of the 20ies and the 40ies.How about old Soviet propaganda adapted to US needs?
