Everything you do now in the US is illegal. You are born and will die a criminal and only your political donations will determine if you end up with a record or jail time reflecting your criminality.
Here in upstate NY I would say our local news on TV is just as uninformative as most news outlets. I will say there is a AM radio station that provides great local news that is relevant and informative. There are so many shady people in the government and the local news on TV doesn't even pretend to care.
There is so much corruption in this area it should be a news reporters dream, but I have never heard anything but fluff BS on local TV news.
Oh, and the AM station that is really good at local content has stated that if the FCC installs something like the fairness doctrine that they will likely close their doors. Way to go FCC you are the problem and the cure....wait a minute??
Many other quotes from other politicians have used "blood libel" in the same context as Palin and there was not a blink. Scrutiny against Palin is 100 times more than any other politician. Having different standards and then a bias against her political party makes the whole situation look more like a witch hunt than news or the political process.
In the past few years I have seen Slashdot go from a group of somewhat biased, but thoughtful group to zombie mob of hacks. Palin is likely smarter than half the people who post on this forum. I don't even like Palin all that much, but a normal citizen works their way up the political chain and it seems by all accounts she has done a good job and you all hate her for it? What is wrong with you people?
Remember the quote "I can see Russia from my house."? Yeah, that was a great SNL skit, but Palin didn't really say that or anything like it.
The Paul Revere scandal, guess what, even a historian on Paul Revere said she was "technically correct".
You have a congressman who is the equivalent of a flashing pervert and everyone defends him to the hill, but some woman from AK wants to make a difference in the country and everyone froths at the mouth like rabid dogs.
You wonder why only perverts, scumbags and thieves end up in government?
The emails haven't even been reviewed fully and you are already making excuses why they show nothing more than a hard working public servant. Everything with Palin is some huge complex conspiracy theory, that is nearly insurmountable by the hordes of reporters and left wing pendents over the past few years.
This twisting conspiracy of course headed by what you and other liberal 'group thinkers' coin has an idiot moron of a woman. Think about that...
Like Palin or not you have to admit that the media goes way out of the way to try and destroy her. The media has been caught pushing many lies about her as though they are facts. The media does not give other politicians the same kind of scrutiny, not even close
This is Alaska's way of pissing the media off, making them jump through a few hoops before they start to unfairly and unevenly try to target her on the emails. The media are being asses, AK are being asses right back. Who cares.
Breitbart is about the only real journalist left in the US. The fact that you dismiss him to listen instead to the normal liberal liars with whom your personal bias agrees say's something about you. The fact that you are proven 100% wrong I doubt will even phase you. You are quite sad, unfortunately you are not alone.
Your low score should show you what you should think of slashdot posters. Slashdot posters don't like truth and love cool-aid from the liberal media. That wont ever change.
You and your personal bias got in the way of truth again. When will you liberal brainwashed dolts ever learn. It was obvious from the start the hacker story didn't quite line up. You are sad.
You personal bias makes you sound incompetent. It was so obvious this was not a hack job and you gave cover fire like all the other brain washed liberal 'hacks'. You are so sad.
I ended up treating my IT career like I treat a night at the roulette table. I busted my balls at doing a lot of good work for a lot of stupid people who would rather spend a million dollars on an empty solution than use an in house solution that costs near zero. When I found something I liked, I moved into a niche field. I cashed out my chips for a stable company of medium size. The only way to survive in IT is to only have 1 foot in and one foot out. Like be in HR, but be the database expert in your group.
Unless you are insanely smart thus being able to write your own path (and I mean tear apart a diesel engine, program in C and python and have an argument with a co-worker about 1992 tax code all before lunch smart), then you will burn out in IT.
I don't understand the fascination with picking apart every little thing Palin says. She was correct in saying that Paul Revere did warn the British against provoking the colonial population. Paul Revere did not gallop through the streets screaming as most of us are envisioning, so whip that grin that you think you know more than Palin. I bet most people don't know of Revere's warnings to the British forces, so we can all stop acting so smug that Palin's version of history wasn't spot on when what she was talking about with marginal accuracy 97% of us didn't even know.
If you have to look something up on Wiki to prove Palin wasn't accurate about an event you didn't even know happen, when do you sit back and think; wow, I'm a little douche?
I haven't seen this much BS on one thread since the last global warming post. Palestinians will never be a State because Hamas, who is back by Iran, has in their charter that Israel and Israelis should be destroyed. Arabs of whatever sect have just as much right over Israel's land as they would over Spain's land. If you think Israel has no right to it, then Spain has no right to their land.
Israelis controlled much more than they have now far longer ago that the idea of a 'Palestinian State' was ever conjured up. I don't like giving $4Billion a year to Israel as much as the next guy (or any other country for that matter), but pretending like the Palestinians have some kind of claim to that land when King David ruled that land around 1000ish BC is delusional.
Israel won the land they have now from a war that was launched against them from 3 different Arab 'states' (I know, odd of Arabs to start a war). Israeli kicked their ass and the land was ceded to them. Anyone here in the US ready to give up the south west US states because Mexicans are pissed that they lost a war long ago?
In closing I'd like to say that if you walk in the Arab controlled parts of Israel, you (assuming you are a westerner) will likely be harassed if not maimed or killed. This is the reality of the Arab world and is why a US journalist covering the 'democracy uprising' or 'freedom uprising' in Egypt was rapped in the middle of the day, in the middle of the 'freedom protests' where everyone could see. They yelled JEW! JEW! JEW! as she was raped.
If you all want to pretend like war wont be launched against Israel as soon as there is a sign of weakness, you are a fool. If you think the Palestinians will ever accept the US in any way shape or form other than as an enemy, you will find disappointment at every turn.
Don't network any of the systems. That's it. Problem solved.
Watch the first season of Battlestar Galactica and you have a design model for the cost of a netflix subscription.
Establish a 15% flat income tax (income is any money had this year, that you didn't have last year).
Establish a 10% VAT tax.
States who participate in the federal program and have no other taxation get a cut of the collected taxes from said state. States what do not participate in the program and DO still tax at the state level simply don't get a cut, but still pay the same as every other state.
There are NO deductions, write offs, exceptions, exemptions AT ALL FOR PERSON, NOT FOR PROFIT or COMPANY.
Oddly enough I watched a documentary on Gerson Therapy for cancer and coffee enemas were highly recommended to fight cancer. I'm not saying I buy into it and there was a lot of other less odd treatments Dr Gerson pushed for, but it is interesting...
A friend of mine and myself went to Colorado a few years back and rented a Jeep which came with a GPS. About half way into the trip we decided to drive around the inner foothills which was a blast. We decided to turn on the GPS to find our way back into Denver and what seemed like a reasonable road turned into a dirt road, then a off road path, finally a goat path. The GPS had a reading of a fork or turn ahead soon so we knew we were going to be in the clear soon. One of the best metal images of my life was driving on the side of this mountain with a solid wall of rock to my left, not enough road for my tires on the narrow path because on the right side it dropped down 1000 ft or more (so I was literally driving half on the wall of the mountain). I look at my friend in the passenger seat and because of the extreme angle we are at I can nearly see down the shear cliff to my right and that British bitch chimes in at that very moment "Turn right, now". My friend and I look at each other, he looks out his window practically hanging over the cliff smiles and says he didn't think he would appreciate me making that turn right now. We did make it off that goat path finally, but we did complain to Enterprise about their GPS who frequently suggested we drive ourselves off multiple mountain sides that trip.
Oddly enough the house I bought last year which is not in CO and very much in town doesn't show up correctly on any GPS. Perhaps this is a curse. Although when I go to sell this house I want to sell it as a grow house and get some good money for it. Cops not being able to find my house could pay some dividends.

You were so amazingly wrong with your 'insightful' post it makes me laugh.

I was a history major, does that mean I get to turn people in that use phrases in the past tense?
