The guy published his freaking birth certificate, what more do you want?
Actually that's a myth.
Obama's campaign published a modern duplicate of a Certificate of Live Birth which is most certainly not the same thing as a birth certificate.
I don't know whether the accusations stick or not, but it doesn't help Obama's case that he went to such lengths to dodge the simple question about his constitutional qualifications to run for President.
Importantly, a Certificate of Live Birth is issued to adoptive parents when bringing an adopted child home to the USA from outside of the country (as one example).
I didn't pay much mind to the accusations of him being foreign-born until the Certificate of Live Birth was produced. Any objective person who has gone through the process of international adoption would recognize that as something that doesn't disprove the accusations at all.
Ah but if all of the federal IT assets and headcount are transferred under a new department run by this cabinet-level position, the appointee will then have the necessary power.
It's pretty common in larger international companies to have a division or subsidiary that serves IS/IT needs to the rest of the company. IBM has IGS (which serves both internal and external customers). Johnson & Johnson has NCS. etc.
Bush did nothing to deregulate the financial industry.
He is a flaming chowderhead and guilty of high crimes against the people of the United States and the Constitution. But to be fair, this particular accusation doesn't stick.
OK what if you want to RTFM but don't know which FM to R?
apropos
If you know there is probably a command out there to do something that you want to do, use apropos to find man pages that contain the keyword you're after.
The idea of McCain dying early and Palin becoming president is the only thing that comforted some of us. Inexperienced as she may be (she is in fact more experienced than Barry Soetoro), she has a firmer grasp on the values of the America outside of the latte belt than any other major party candidate I've seen in a general election in a long long time.
Like it or not, once you get outside of New York City, San Fransisco, Chicago, etc. there is a big country out there with values and traditions that are deeply rooted and not generally compatible with the agenda of the smug liberals that hang out in places like this. The so-called "party of tolerance" has no tolerance for the broad swath of America outside of the small urban enclaves.
I have never seen such hysteria for a candidate in my life. With the type of overwrought messianic expectations that he faces, there is no way to go for Obama but down.
I have.
I'm hesitant to elaborate, though, for fear of invoking Godwin's Law.
Obama's proposed "Civilian National Security Force" should wear brown shirts just to eliminate any ambiguity about where he got the idea from.
McCain wouldn't have been any good, either. But the answer to the current malaise isn't a European-style socialist regime. It's government interference in the free market that got us in this mess to begin with.
US troops are in Iraq because of oil. This is the US government interfering in the free market. If the government were not involved, and Americans paid the true price for petroleum products at the pump, we'd be much closer right now to the reality of mainstream renewable energy.
President-elect Barry Hussein Soetoro is just going to bring us a different flavor of big government instead of getting the hell out of the way and letting real people come up with real solutions (and act on them!)
And even with scientifically rigorous documentation, my findings would still be disregarded because I do not have the right combination of alphabet soup appended to my name.
There would still be debates about the fundamentals of electricity today if Benjamin Franklin were subjected to modern standards of scientific method.
Some of your candidates didn't qualify even for a write-in vote in North Carolina. I'd like very much to be able to vote for Chuck Baldwin (assuming he can't get his theological agenda pushed through, I'm with him on nearly everything else). But his party didn't even have enough organization to collect 250 signatures to get on the North Carolina list of approved write-in candidates.
I find it likely that I'll be writing in "None of the above" tomorrow.
I recall as a kid how my grandmother's yard was littered with American toads. She was certainly in the right place for wildlife. Right next to a state park. Two acre pond in the back yard. Woods all around. The lawn seemed to dance as I pushed the mower back and forth. If I saw anything less than a few dozen toads while mowing the front lawn, something was wrong.
My grandmother is gone and my parents have since moved into that house. Now it's a treat for my kids if I can find a toad or two there.
My own home has much the same problem. I'm on a wooded lot, backed up against a city greenway with a stream in the back yard. There is plenty of habitat for the toads, plenty of food. Every now and then we'll see one. The neighbors who have been here 30 years say that during the summer the houses would have treefrogs all over them. I have yet to see a single treefrog. And taking my kids back in the greenway to look for salamanders, we have yet to find a single one while flipping over rocks and rotten logs.
I still have my doubts about man's part in changing the climate. But something is wrong. The amphibians are like the canary in the coal mine. And it doesn't take an expert to see that they are disappearing fast.
I support a development infrastructure for roughly 20,000 paid Linux developers. And I don't do that for free. But if you want to keep believing that Linux developers are kids hacking for free from their mothers' basements, go on deluding yourself.
h.264 is handled quite nicely by nearly every Apple product, many new cell phones, modern flavors of Windows and Linux, modern PC's without any additional hardware offloading. Television providers around the world are bracing to switch over to h.264 streaming and I believe some are already there. This is, effectively, the prevailing standard for broadcast quality high definition digital video.
Sure, BBC can provide a streaming option for those who prefer it. But I'd wager quite a few will opt for downloading the whole show and watching it stutter-free, which also gives them the option to keep it or discard it when done.
Where in the US Constitution is the Federal Government empowered to manage health care for US citizens?
Because if it's not enumerated,
The 10th amendment to the Constitution is crystal clear on this point:
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.

I like emacs but I'm not ready to change over to it 100% yet.
Is there a way to dual boot between Vista and emacs?
It's all a continuation of Clinton's policies, in truth.
But since he's a member of the Democratic party, he's beyond reproach here.
This is a common misconception.

Bingo. Look at how they treat real conservatives like Pat Buchanan or Ron Paul.
I wonder how long it will take them to figure out that Andrew Napolitano is not a neocon.

Speak for yourself.
The USA is a sovereign nation. We don't need your approval, or your phobia of the letter "z".
Government is the problem.

In a post-Obama world, any chick that isn't a barking moonbat hoplophobe becomes far more attractive.

Actually it varies from state to state.
