  1. Re:"Propaganda" on Obama Launches Change.gov · · Score: 1

    That should say "put them in private school" not "public" - ugh

  2. Re:"Propaganda" on Obama Launches Change.gov · · Score: 1

    Many public schools already have manditory community service. If you don't want your little darlings to experience hard work then home school them or put them in public school.

    The college community service thing is voluntary and is in exchange for a $4000 tuition break.

  3. Re:Censorship on Craigslist Agrees With State AGs To Curb "Erotic Services" Ads · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Even more mind-boggling is that making porn movies is legal. So it's only illegal if one of the people gets paid and the other doesn't.

  4. Re:I'd rather see someone involved in Free Softwar on Bill Joy For New National CTO Post? · · Score: 1

    He has something against hotel rooms?

  5. Re:Octopus? on Eight-Armed Animal Preceded Dinosaurs · · Score: 1

    Yeah, if an octopus lacked internal organs and had a jelly like outer skin.

  6. Re:I'll Tell You What It Means on Barack Obama Wins US Presidency · · Score: 1

    Didn't I see you on Digg? Sounds like the same clueless trash.

  7. Re:Two words on Barack Obama Wins US Presidency · · Score: 1

    I can - a Republican President with a Republican congress for six years.

  8. Re:Bias Language on Ballots on Discuss the US Presidential Election · · Score: 1

    Children are not - by law, capable of consent.

  9. Re:Money spent on advertising... on Discuss the US Presidential Election · · Score: 1

    People donated the money to make sure he won. It's not like he could donate it to charity.

  10. Re:any evidence on Discuss the US Presidential Election & the Economy · · Score: 1

    Actually the senate is dead even with 49 Republicans, 49 Democrats and 2 independents. Just trying to keep you honest.

  11. Re:Correlation != Causation on Patient "Roused From Coma" By a Magnetic Therapy · · Score: 1

    Considering that household pets have been shown to respond to acupuncture, I'd say that there is something to it, unless you're somehow claiming that animals are receptive to the "placebo effect"

  12. Don't be stupid on Study Links Personal Music Players To Hearing Loss · · Score: 1

    Buy a good set of headphones or you'll wind up at 40 with a hearing aid (speaking from personal experience) $50 is a lot cheaper than $1500 and all the inconvenience.

  13. Re:First thing I do with every game I buy. . . on Game Distribution and the 'Idiocy' of DRM · · Score: 1

    Of course more and more iTunes songs are unprotected, and are the only ones I purchase. So as long as there are devices that can play AAC files, I can play my purchased music. If you're going to make a comment like that, you should post the whole truth.

  14. Re:99% off-topic question on How Close Were US Presidential Elections? · · Score: 1

    No, he'll just use the excuse of "states rights" to allow the more backwards states to oppress the minority. Pass.

  15. Re:99% off-topic question on How Close Were US Presidential Elections? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I liked Ron Paul's views on the economy and his foreign policy, unfortunately he is also a misogynist, homophobe, and a religious nut.

  16. Re:Spineless? on Nielsen Sends Wikipedia DMCA Takedown For Station Descriptions · · Score: 2, Informative

    It's called the law. If you get a takedown notice you HAVE to comply. If someone files a counterclaim the information can be put back up.

  17. Re:Playing Since Tuesday on Mythic Launches Warhammer Online · · Score: 1

    I agree, Public Quests are a hoot, you don't have to group if you don't want to and still have a fair shot at the loot.

  18. Re:Sigh... on Ray Beckerman Sued By the RIAA · · Score: 1

    Between my wife and I, we've got a collection of CDs in the hundreds, and iTunes has gotten more of my money than I care to think about and I'm still opposed to the crap that the RIAA pull on general principle. If they hadn't fought the digital age tooth and nail then maybe they wouldn't be so desperate.

  19. Re:First impression: not cool on "Anonymous" Hacks Palin's Private Email · · Score: 1

    Sauce for the goose Mr. Saavik. It's hard to drum up a lot of sympathy when a government official gets their email rummaged through. Maybe if it happened more often, they might get a clue.

  20. Re:Hacking? on "Anonymous" Hacks Palin's Private Email · · Score: 2, Funny

    "I would have guessed it WAS the combination to her luggage" - Way to spoil a joke...sigh.

  21. Re:Hacking? on "Anonymous" Hacks Palin's Private Email · · Score: 1

    Was it really her zip code? I would have guessed the combination to her luggage.

  22. Re:This could help with many problems on National Car Tracking System Proposed For US · · Score: 1

    You win.

  23. Re:This could help with many problems on National Car Tracking System Proposed For US · · Score: 1

    The government "owns" the roads? How did the government pay for them?

  24. Re:_I_ know where your kid is... Do YOU!??? on National Car Tracking System Proposed For US · · Score: 1

    Hey Rush, I know you're in a pill-popping haze but did you even read the summary?
    "Leading private traffic enforcement camera vendors"

    This is nothing but a lame attempt to use fear to sell their crap.

  25. why pick on Internet radio? on Copyright Board Lawyer Responds On Pandora's End · · Score: 1

    "No one seems to be trying to defend or explain why Internet radio is being hit so much harder than satellite or broadcast."

    Two words - "no payola"
