  1. Good luck finding anyone to work for than. By your own definition, everyone is evil as no one will agree with you on every single issue.

    Do you have a better system of governance? The Federal Republic system of the US was better than any that came before where the people had no power, and has been better than other systems since, but if you come up with a better system, I am sure everyone will follow your lead.

    How would it get overturned? They broke the law in Florida (where the case was heard) and many other states.

    http://www.cybercivilrights.or...

    In Florida, what they did is considered a misdemeanor criminal offense and does not require the person doing the action to live in Florida. When they were ordered by the judge to remove the video, and failed to do so, it actually could have become a felony, they should feel lucky they aren't on the way to prison.

    Well, yeah, raping Monica Lewinsky in the oval office was a bit wrong. Lying about it was much worse. Just like Reagan, it isn't the crime, it is the lie.

    FYI, marriage is a religious ceremony. Those against gay marriage aren't against equal rights, they are against a religious ceremony being defined by the state. If you really cared about gay rights, the fight would have been to remove marriage completely from the state and make everyone get a civil union. The civil union was already available to all homosexuals. If you really care about the issue, you should be fighting to make civil unions give the same rights.

    To be fair, hours are made of minutes...so technically you could say that something drains in minutes if it takes 24 hours to drain.

  10. upholds the rule of law,

    Upholding the rule of law would be sending these people back to their country of origin with a copy of the proper immigration forms. These people chose to bypass the legal path to citizenship that is available and break into the US because it was "too hard" or "too expensive". These are the people who have no consideration for the laws of our country, so they don't support the rule of law. Allowing them a process to subvert and bypass the immigration procedures in place is allowing them to continue breaking the law.

    You mean like calling McCain old, but not allowing anyone to talk about Hillary's age this year even though she is only two years younger than McCain was?

    You can look forward to Hiro Protagonist's motorcycle in Snow Crash. Self driving, gyroscopically stabilized, with smart wheels and a air deflecting shell.

    Though at that point, much of the allure of a motorcycle is gone. Usually people ride motorcycles for the feel of danger, and the feel of freedom, which would both be gone in that bike.

    That mouse has buttons on the size, it is called the squeeze button used to bring up the task switcher. It also had a ball for navigation, but no button on the ball like the Windows wheel mice.

    http://www.apple.com/shop/prod...

    That mouse could be said to have infinite buttons, as it is touch enabled. It has only one physical button though.
