Have you actually LOOKED at Ron Paul 's positions and voting record (rather than the Lamestream Media's smears)?
Did he write the newsletters that he published? Or was he ignorant of the contents of things that were going out under his name, and that he was making money on?
In either case he's not fit to be dog-catcher, never mind president.
Too bad the smartphone market is collusive. Smartphones and tablets use the exact same hardware, except tablets have much bigger and more expensive screens and batteries. Yet the tablets retail for 1/3 the price of smartphones.
Funny, I ust bought an Android phone for EUR 140. I've not seen any tablets that cost EUR 46.
(Ok, it's an Acer S120, with a fairly anemic 800Mhz processor and only 512Mb of ram, but it has a 800x480 screen).
Well, five of the 10 editors of Climate Research were unhappy with the paper being published.
And some of the authors of papers included in the review claim that S&B misrepresented their data.
I notice you don't dispute the other parts of the lie - you seem to want to defend S&B rather than the WSJ.
The international warming establishment quickly mounted a determined campaign to have Dr. de Freitas removed from his editorial job
Jones said he wouldn't publish in CR if de Freitas stuck around. That's a determined campaign to have de Freitas sacked? No, its a determined campaign not to publish in crap journals. Jones doesn't send stuff to Energy & Environment either.
The options used elsewhere are cheaper and produce better outcomes.
I've worked extremely hard, and I refuse to accept for my family any mitigation in what services I can purchase on their behalf.
Who would restrict what you can purchae on their behalf? The two systems I've used (UK and France) leave you able to spend whatever you want on health care, as far as I know this is the case in the other systems.
and see that the European model is grossly expensive due to rampant freeloading.
Rubbish. The main European systems (UK, France, Germany - 3 different systems) are all cheaper per capita than the pre-Obama/Romney system. I suspect they'll still be cheaper than Obama/Romney when it gets around to being implenented.
(The UK system is cheaper per capita than US government healthcare - i,e, it's cheaper per capita than Medicare+Medicaid+VA. I prefer the French one, it's a bit more expensive, but the service is better).
Professor Henry Brubaker, of the Institute for Studies, said: "While there will always be debate over climate data, it's important to remember that the state of the world's icebergs and glaciers remains wholly dependant on which group of tedious, hectoring arseholes is currently winning the argument."
If the climate models are so accurate, the surely these scientists can tell us accurately what the temperatures worldwide will be in the future?
Because there are unpredictable factors. We don't yet know how to predict volcanic erruptions for example - the biggest can change the climate for a year or so. Even worse there is no way to predict human behaviour - that is why the IPCC has to produce a range of different scenarios.
In 2003, Dr. Chris de Freitas, the editor of the journal Climate Research, dared to publish a peer-reviewed article with the politically incorrect (but factually correct) conclusion that the recent warming is not unusual in the context of climate changes over the past thousand years. The international warming establishment quickly mounted a determined campaign to have Dr. de Freitas removed from his editorial job and fired from his university position. Fortunately, Dr. de Freitas was able to keep his university job.
Of course that isn't what happened at all.
De Freitas was an editor, not the editor.
De Freitas arranged that Soon and Baliunas's paper was published without proper peer review. When people complained about the poor quality of the paper to the editors for Climate Research five of the editors (half the editorial board) resigned in protest of the actions of De Freitas.
So now the WSJ publishes simple lies in it's Op Ed pages. Interesting.
Absolutely. Anzya is paranoid. There is no EU requirement to carry papers in any member country, it's just that member countries are required to accept other countries national ID where they used to require passports.
I'm a non-French EU resident in France and I do not need to carry any ID papers at all.
Also as things age it gets harder to get replacement parts. look at the A-10. The Air Force has tried to discontinue it several times, however it keeps proving itself reliable in combat. Now they have to go so far as to reverse engineer new parts out of old parts in order to keep the planes flying.

So capital gains taxes are on investments
How dumb can you get.
Capital gains are taxes on gains not on investments.
I.E. they're taxes on income.
So why the hell aren't they the same as income taxes?

I'm not sure I follow. He wants to do away with [Federal] vice drug laws.Ron Paul is a champion of civil rights, in this regard.
He thinks it should be left up the states to legislate against drugs.
He's such a champion of civil rights he thinks businesses should be allow to discriminate on grounds of race.
It's a mere cooincidence that he hangs out with Fascists in Stormfront, the Third way and the BNP.

Can you imagine Obama thinking it would be a good idea to strap his dog to the car roof for a long drive?
Romney is weird.

Oh, the options offered.
Take that up with your politicians.

The fact is, I'd LOVE to have everyone have medical care
Well, since providing universal health care is cheaper than not doing it what's stopping you?
The key word here is "economically".
Of course it makes no economical sense to do that.
That's because we're not trying to solve an economical problem.
Nicholas Stern would like to disagree with you.
RTFA. Someone actually tried that, then they got fired.
Then use your stellar google skills and discover that the WSJ lied about what happened.

What happens when they run out of FLAC's (Four Letter ACroyms)?
Oh, that's why you're in prison being waterboarded as we speak.
Now I get it.
Which is what the Left told the Right would happen. But did those idiots listen?
Absolutely. Anzya is paranoid. There is no EU requirement to carry papers in any member country, it's just that member countries are required to accept other countries national ID where they used to require passports.
I'm a non-French EU resident in France and I do not need to carry any ID papers at all.
Ok tmosley, that's it.
Send out the jackbooted thugs!
Oh, we don't have any. Drat.
Let's just carry on mocking the afflicted then.
A 0.3% change in the rise. I cannot imagine how you can confuse that with the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere.
Oh, yes I can. You aren't confusing it, you're being an troll.
Also as things age it gets harder to get replacement parts. look at the A-10. The Air Force has tried to discontinue it several times, however it keeps proving itself reliable in combat. Now they have to go so far as to reverse engineer new parts out of old parts in order to keep the planes flying.
The A10? What about the B52!
Tell that to the Serbians who shot down [wikipedia.org] an American stealth fighter using primitive sixties-era Russian technology.
The usual claim is that it was Polish technology (radar system using an Polish military version of an ICL 1900 series computer).
Almost no change for very large values of almost no change.
The error bar at the start is clearly twice as large as the last one.
Unless you use t-mobile, you pay the same price, contract or not. Even on t-mobile, it's only a few dollars (under $10) a month cheaper.
My phone contract is only 20 EUR (USD 26). Adding $10 a month would be a 38% increase!
(Free mobile - 20 EUR gets me unlimited calls to the EU and US, unlimited data (speed reduced after first 3Gb in the month)).
Huge!
