    they must be one step closer to translating ponies! Very exciting times we live in! Oh my!!

    The last time I may'd something, I got punched in the jaw. We used to may all the time back in the day. Now people get their panties in the wad. I blame republicrats.

  3. What the hell, Steve? on Apple Offers Free Cases To Solve iPhone 4 Antenna Problems · · Score: 4, Interesting

    You justify your phone having issues by basically saying that other phones are poorly designed too? That's not thinking different. That's thinking like a politician. What a great solution too. Here is our brand new super thin phone that has reception problems. Here a thick case to wrap around the phone to fix that. Gee, thanks Steve.

    Many of us would love to vote them all out and start over. Sadly, those who would get voted in would be of the same breed as it takes a lot of money. That money tends to come from the lobbyists. Vote for a Teabagger, get an extreme right wing asshole who no doubt cater to the corporate lobby. Vote for a Green Party member, get an extreme left wing asshole who will no doubt cater to the corporate lobby. What we need is a corporation to lobby for the people. I wish there were money to be made in that.

    Where do we cut? I believe starting with cutting the defense budget in half would be a nice place to start. We could clean up our debt and pay for healthcare with ease. Obviously, the Military Industrial Complex will have none of that.

  6. Re:Bad, bad news on Supreme Court Rolls Back Corporate Campaign Spending Limits · · Score: 1

    What is amazing to me is that this is not the biggest news in this country right now. I cannot believe nobody has even brought this up in conversation. It is as if there are other, more important things going on right now. Nobody seems to be paying attention. I'm hearing all about Haiti and the new Massachusetts Senator, but nothing on this ruling. This changes our country for ever if we don't bother doing anything about it. We're lost.

    What this will lead to is Joe Republican receiving a billion dollars from Exxon the likes to open up all offshore / back yard oil drilling and Bobby Democrat receiving a billion dollars from UAW and the likes to unionize everything even down to the family in your own home. There will be no incentive what-so-ever to listen to the guy who donates his $20 in hopes his voice is heard. Now you must have Billions. The next election will cost a hundred billion dollars. Save your money because they don't need it. Basically they just legalized all the under the table dealings corporations and politicians have been doing for years. They have no reason to hide it now. Want some sort of regulation on the banking corporations? Not likely now. Mega banks will pump a quarter years of profits into getting a handful of senators elected to help pass a bill that busts the industry wide open. Your opinion won't matter nearly as much as the shareholders. It's been this way for a while, but now there is nothing standing in any mega corporations way. What worries me is will this lead to the Great Corporation war of this new decade. I've had an uneasy feeling in my gut for a while, and I quit eating White Castle years ago. This roll back only confirms my negative feelings. Imagine how much FUD can be bought for billions of dollars.

    I'd rather be swallowed up by the approaching giant vagina than nearly poked in the eye by that enormous 60" 3D penis. 3D Lesbian porn only?

    Walter Cronkite was one of the first to inject his own opinion into the news. An opinion that many in the public listened to. News is not balanced if it is slanted with your opinion.

    When Edward Bernays (nephew of Sigmund Freud) came to Washington to assist in the public relations of then President Calvin Coolidge, the spin machine officially began. Bernays is the father of modern public relations and the foundation of politics as we know it today. The Nixon administration only elevated the spin game to a new level for political gains, although with every year, we see a more intense push of FUD for the ongoing struggle to wield power.

    Carts a great Idea on flat ground but they aren't at all effective climbing up the side of a rigid mountain. This is where muscle comes in very handy. At least until the Terminator robots take over our fighting.
