Specifically that once Morgan Stanley publishes their stock upgrades and downgrades, it's pretty much public information.
That's not what was happening. Theflyonthewall.com was publishing information before it was made available, so that their subscribers could benefit from it before the clients of Morgan-Stanley et al.
The gall of people, smashing two innocent and unrelated words together like that to create a third, wholly unauthorized word.
I hereby deem that the result of this activity be described as "smashcabulary" and the action itself "to smashcabulize". That ought to help clear things up.
We just need to find out why those extremists were leaving the site for others. Was it the banner ads? The trolls? Or did the lack of decent comment threading just annoy too many would-be suicide bombers?
Wasn't there a story a few days about CIA officers launching precision assassination attacks against military targets due to anti-anti-terrorist operations? I'm thinking today is a Bad Day(tm) to work at the Pentagon.
Yeah, but in that case it's advertised as a feature for the car owner. If your car is stolen, they can locate it and shut off the engine, making it easier to recover.
Just because what we have now is bad doesn't mean what the President and Congress are proposing is not bad. You can be against the monstrosity that is health-care reform without ignoring the problems that currently exist.
If they're in the theater of operations for the war and there's intel showing them to be part of the planning staff for Al Qaeda or the Taliban or whoever, then that's it. There are no civil rights in a war zone; there are no legal niceties beyond avoiding unnecessary pain and suffering (which is what the Geneva Convention aims for). So I say, kill the bastards and let their version of invisible sky wizard sort them out.
No one's arguing that the US government (or any other government, for that matter) be able to do this on our own soil (or maybe there are, there are nutcases out there who probably would think it's a good idea). My argument, at least, is if these people are in Afghanistan, Pakistan, or any other Randomstan, they're legitimate targets and their termination should be prosecuted using whatever tools are best suited to the job, without worrying about whether a judge agrees with the military and intelligence community.
When Medicare was enacted, the House Ways and Means Committee estimated it would cost $12 billion by 1990. In fact, it cost $107 billion in 1990, an increase of almost 1000%. Using the numbers in the CBO report and extrapolating the additional costs that will surely come into play, the end cost will be well into the trillions of dollars. You're an absolute fool if you can't see this for yourself.
It doesn't have to be. They're on the battlefield, shooting at American and allied soldiers. That makes them valid targets for any weapon system our military has, including unmanned drones.
1) Goes to another country 2) Fights on behalf of that country or a splinter group within it 3) Fights against the US and/or its allies
deserves protections offered by the Bill of Rights? These people are enemy soldiers, not just criminals. They deserve protections under the Geneva Convention, but that's it.
You really need to learn to read between the lines on these things. All of those "savings" are in there because the law, as written, states they'll exist. Unfortunately, there's no real way to show that those savings will ever really happen. So even though the CBO has to account for them, the reality is they'll never materialize. Just like with Medicare, which was projected to cost $x million by 1990 but ended up costing ten times that amount (or more), this healthcare "fix" will cost far, far more than doing nothing. It will, in short, bankrupt the United States (which is already bankrupt thanks to foreign misadventures and growing entitlement programs).
In ten years, when the US is falling apart into 20 different nations and you are all scratching your heads wondering what happened, think back to this moment in time and remember: I told you so.
It doesn't. The CBO report clearly says that pushing forward this healthcare plan will cost more than doing what we're doing now.
It should also be stated that CBO projections are notorious for being, if anything, overly optimistic. This is because, by law, the CBO must take Congress at its word as to what will happen. So when the law says it'll generate savings, the CBO has to include those savings, even though their own analysis shows no such savings will occur.
The Congressional Budget Office disagrees with you. According to their estimates, Obamacare will cost an additional $1 trillion over 10 years. In what way is squandering $1 trillion a way to save money?
I am. Not only that, but I lost my youngest child due to my ex-wife's negligence (he drowned in her pool five days after his 5th birthday). Charges should absolutely be filed against this assclown and he should spend the rest of his days rotting in jail. He's irresponsibility robbed that little girl of her life, there's no amount of crocodile tears he can shed now that will bring her back.
Too many adults in this country don't act like adults, and then when their children are injured or killed society says "Well, that's punishment enough." That strikes me as being suspiciously like the old story of the man who murdered his parents and then threw himself on the mercy of the court as an orphan. If you're stupid, lazy, or just plain incompetent and a child dies because of that, there is no end to the misery that should placed on your head, now and into the future.
Wickard v. Filburn dealt with a fungible commodity (wheat). This guy is performing a specific service that must be done under specific circumstances, so Wickard may not apply. Regardless, I'm sure we'll find out when the FDA comes knockin' in the not-too-distant future.
Considering how hot every single Persian chick I've ever met is, I fully support the idea of peaceful, loving relations with Iran, as often as possible.
Why not make an ISO of your CD available on your website and then provide any country-specific filtering? If someone wants it, they can just download it and burn a copy for themselves.

And this has been proven in a court of law?

Are you seriously arguing that someone who:
1) Goes to another country
2) Fights on behalf of that country or a splinter group within it
3) Fights against the US and/or its allies
deserves protections offered by the Bill of Rights? These people are enemy soldiers, not just criminals. They deserve protections under the Geneva Convention, but that's it.
Does that mean you fly to the States for complex operations?
It's worse: he's a Congressman.
Yeah, well, it's not my fault. I voted for Kodos.
Well, there's Mos Eisley. But yeah, Scientology is pretty bad.

You'll never kill SCO until you destroy all of Darl McBride's horcruxes. Rumor has it he has more than the Dark Lord himself.
Are you a parent?
I am. Not only that, but I lost my youngest child due to my ex-wife's negligence (he drowned in her pool five days after his 5th birthday).

You used Windows 1.0 in the Navy? Can't imagine why you'd be attracted to a program called Quarterdeck, then.

The beaver bag?
Isn't that one taken for a brand of feminine condom?
A story about possible life in Orion and not a single comment about green slave women? What is wrong with you people?
Now, get off my lawn.
