    I always liked the cartoon in an issue of the Dragon that showed a guy being pushed into a shower with a bunch of cats tied to him... to simulate the average fight with a pack of kobolds, i believe it was.

  4. Re:Update on this story on DOJ Could Ban Texas Flights Over Anti-Patdown Law · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    So many people who claim to have such great knowledge about the constitution seem to miss that last line in Section 8:

    "To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof."

    And, of course, you specifically seem to have missed the preamble:

    "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

    I understand though. You hate society, you hate the idea of people working together, you hate the general idea behind the formation of the United States. You have this ludicrous opinion that the Constitution is the ONLY law of the land, when it would be impossible for a society to exist without laws... but then, you don't like society do you, even though you've gain immense privileges by living in one.

    The biggest problem we have in Washington is some jackass named Eyman who's an anti-government dick who has been making his living on the donations of other anti-government asshats for a decade.

    This is the same stupider than shit conservative talking point that idiots on other sites use.

    You ignore all the other taxes that are paid by people who are not on the higher end of earning scale, many of those taxes placing a larger burden on the poor. You cherry pick a single fact and thinks it makes the case: it doesn't. In the first year of income tax, less than 1/2 of 1 percent of people had to pay it.

    Here's another good one.. the top quintal owns 87% of ALL resources, perhaps they should pay 87% of all taxes?

    The simple fact is, greedy little whores have been leeching this country dry, borrowing on our children's and our grand children's futures for the last 30 years. They have failed to reinvest as EVERY generation before them did, so not only have they leeched 13 trillion from future generations, they've allowed the infrastructure to fall into disrepair. Worthless little maggots like that dickless wonder down in Texarse talk about Texas being better at helping Texas than the federal government.. yet when his state is burning, and after 25 federal grants to help, he enough of a fucking hypocrite to whine like a little bitch that the feds aren't doing enough.

    It's time to castrate all the anti-Americans out their that want to destroy the country, and repair the damage they've done since Ronnie the Imbecile was top dumbass. Raise tax rates back to the level they were in 1960, and make it so they automatically rise if their is any deficit in a year; lowering if we run a surplus. Then remove the power of congress to change that automation, after all, all they do is pander to worthless pieces of shit.

    Since YOU don't voluntarily go out and pave a road, or clean up contamination from the air, or water, I'd suggest people like YOU who want other people to volunteer so you don't have to pay your fair share are the true leeches of society; greedy, self-serving, anti-social, and probably a few other choice words in their. The level of greed in these anti-American, anti-tax pieces of shit is only matched by their total lack of a fucking clue when it comes to what made this country great, even though they give lip service to patriotism and such. They are worthless trash, and they are THE cause of many of the problems in our society.

    And yes, that was being polite on the subject.

    I agree with what you're saying in general, however, in this case this news hit the local channels the same day as a report on the companies in the Seattle area scrambling to find people for these types of jobs.

    The simple matter here is, because of revenue declines, the state is making budget cuts. Those cuts are probably going to eliminate this program, a program that is needed to keep up with the demand of just local area (Washington state) jobs in the field. It's a total failure of this and the last generations responsibility to re-invest in the future of this country for the betterment of future generations, and this country as a whole is suffering immensely from that.

    It's not even that simple. It's like saying the police picked up everyone who owned a blue Taurus, threw them in jail for years, tortured them, without any evidence they were anything other than someone just driving along.

    In fact, it's probably worse than that, considering the amount of money that was being given out for "possible" terrorists to be identified early on in Afghanistan... it'd be like the police doing all that because someone was paid enormous amounts of money to suggested you might have once driven a blue Taurus.

    If that's all we need to do, there's a whole bunch of people i'd be happy to tell whomever it is in charge that they once may have had a watch like this.
