I distinctly remember when I was assigned new hires, fresh out of college, all with a minimum of a BS in CS, usually with glowing letters of recommendation from the "somebody" in the undergraduate program at "university", and I remember very well just what a bunch of utterly helpless dunces (most of) these people were! I also had the pleasure of training two Vietnam vets, who had only marginal exposure to machine rooms and data centers and no repair training! Armed with common sense, a high school education and the ability to reason both these men had, within two years there own service areas, while the college boys either quit or stayed as analysts.
Education is a tool, if you don't know how to use it, (it) was a waste of money!
It's a sham, a distraction, there's no "there" there, we are drowning in well established "third" parties none of which can get on a non local (city/county) ballot! The REAL power in the USofA will never allow a "third" party to succeed!
Remember, the US is NOT a democracy, it's an oligarchy, the biggest corporations are calling the shots, The Shrub, Obombemall, are (regardless of foolish rhetoric) the same extension of the real goals and policies of their masters.
The old man & the crazy bitch would have done/not done exactly the same thing as O'Bomb-em-all/I'm-biden-my-time! The President/vice President do exactly as they are told by the big money bastards that REALLY put them in office!
I just love how people will fall for one bullshit line after another, Ron Paul is just another self serving parasite, capitalizing on the unending gullibility of the American people, didn't anybody learn their lesson from "change you can believe in"? or "hope", learn the lesson, get a clue, if the cocksucker was any god damn good he'd be getting a flight in a Paul Wellstone aeroplane! Just go ahead and challenge the status quo and see if anybody hears about you!
I'm SICK of these simpleminded bastards endlessly believing in one lying crooked scumbag after another! Back in the 60's there was a sign "what if they gave a war and nobody came" How about "what if they had an election and everybody wrote in Mickey Mouse"!
Then maybe you should have encrypted it and kept it behind a firewall, no?
If I leave my front door wide open, at sidewalk level, leave home, on a busy downtown street, how long will it take before somebody helps themselves to my stuff?
"Inferior" Homo Neanderthalensis lived as a distinct group for half a million years, surviving the toughest conditions imaginable with very limited technology, I's say that the modern hiker, who dies of exposure/starvation in 40F weather within 200 yards of a road is inferior! Could you live a night wrapped in several animal hides, probably without a fire, in ice age weather -70F?
The problem with juries is that people with jobs that don't offer paid jury leave (almost all of them) want you to lose money and participate in a charade, playing along with the corrupt, arbitrary, capricious and above all political game being used by an elected prosecutor to gain points so as to further his/her ambitions! The outcome is that most jurors are not workers, but rather are retired or otherwise unemployed. All this leads to a very disgruntled jury pool, unhappy people who consciously or subconsciously undermine the entire process.
The police don't really care who is or is not guilty, they only want to get a case off their plate, the prosecutor will, however use any case as a tool for self-aggrandizement, he/she will make a toy of the unlucky/guilty/suspect, including but not limited to "perp-walks", press conferences/releases, etc designed to cast a guilty shadow over the accused.
And in cases where the death penalty is carried out in some states they try to take/seize assets from the condemned's family to get him/her to sign a document making him/her to pay for his/her "execution".
I am getting off topic, to make a short statement like "Evidence? we don't need no stinking evidence!" would summarize the entire diatribe.
Like that bald headed pantload Dr Phil said "People who have nothing to hide, hide nothing". As a trite little saying (he's full of those) it seems innocuous, but when you put a little historical perspective on it you see that it is yet another door way into absolute dictatorship!
Bush did not get elected nor did he get re-elected, do you really think that the government is really those mindless clownish petty crooks in Washington? The Government is and has been made up by the largest corporations in the world, both in and outside of America! The little crooked scumbags in Washington collect money and read from the scripts provided to them by their corporate masters!
GSA (General Services Administration) is switching to Gmail as part of their migration to the "cloud" you wonder who got the bribe to make this stupidity happen. After many relatively trouble free years with Lotus Notes, the airheads hear the new marketing-speak buzzwords "Cloud Computing" and to impress their equally airheaded managers and to look smart they decided to move from a proven enterprise class application to somthing oriented towards small business and end user applications.
If the lack of any serious security wasn't enough, the fact that a US government function now is at the whim of all the civilian (non governmental) connectivity issues that keep popping up from time to time!
Good thing their keeping their Notes servers up for the time being.
Every time I hear some luser mention the "cloud" I want to scream!
You can bet that France and Germany are going into the Nuclear energy business together, only the reactors will be in France. Must be that the political landscape makes this kind of shell game plausible to the German people (let's move the reactors over the border) after all French fallout wouldn't dare cross into Germany.
They (law enforcement) REALLY, REALLY HATE IT when the get caught on tape (so to speak) committing murder, beating the helpless, framing citizens, violating the "laws" they are sworn to uphold, yup it pisses them off!
Just a little "for instance" in San Jose, CA some year back two burly young 200lb plus officers wearing body armor responded to a "disturbance" at the home of a 4' 10" tall 88lb woman who it turned out had psychological issues, she had not taken her medications and was panicking because her child had become locked in the bathroom, she had been using an Asian-style vegetable peeler to try to pry open the door, when the aforesaid burlies saw the peeler they "thought it was a cleaver" and as we know two large men are no match for a distraught 89 pound woman! The officers, "fearing for their lives" opened fire and shot the lady many, many times (cops NEVER shoot to wound or disable) at point blank range!
IMHO, these men are COWARDS, SOCIOPATHS AND MURDERERS, but of course they were rewarded with paid leave and a pat on the back!

If you fail (have the risk factor) you WILL be denied health/life insurance.
At least at rates payable by a non multimillionaire!

"if a corporation would do that, it's OK, but if a govt. does it, it's not?"
There is no difference, the corporations ARE the government!
Yup!

YES, an intelligent response!
RAH!
You don't read much, huh?

Common sense, protect your shit!

These grammar Nazis all really wanted to be secretaries, so they could sit on the bosses lap and play with his Dictaphone!

Didn't Tesla stop making the roadster? Not that I could ever have afforded one, nonetheless a very exciting product.

It turns shit into chocolate pudding!
Mmmmm!
And here I thought they were "swamp rats"!
The vote doesn't matter!
Once again, for emphasis..

I really am just stating the obvious!

Who do you call when the murderer wears a blue uniform?
"Community policing" = "Occupying army"
