How are unnatural forms of birth control "inappropriate to the reverence for life"? I would think a highly appropriate way to show reverence for life is to not create more of it than you can properly care for.
Actually, she was testifying about someone who needed contraceptives for non-contraceptive purposes. Also, you do realize that the amount of contraceptive a woman needs is in no way related to how much sex she has, right?
AC is right. Foster Friess said it's a good contraceptive. Rush said that anyone who uses contraceptive is a slut. So the summary must be suggesting that anyone over the age of 45 become a slut, for health purposes.
(spoiler for anyone who hasn't seen the David Tennant episodes) He mentioned in one episode that he's still aging, and that he eventually becomes the face of Mogh. (Because that's what happens when you keep getting old but never die?)
Actually, he maintained computer networks and troubleshoots technical problems, so I don't know if he was any more of a scientist that any other sysadmin, but he was also written up for harassing coworkers about religion, and was let go when the mission was over and budget cuts required them to lay off somebody.
I would like to think that if he was an Amway salesman who had been written up because people complain that he shouldn't be handing out Amway pamphlets at work, and annoying others with his campaigns to demand more Amway friendly laws be passed, and whose main project just got cancelled, that he would be several steps closer to the chopping block when budgets get cut.

"incompetent people are inherently unable to judge the competence of other people"
Not sure why it took "research" to understand this. I thought everyone knew this.
The whole "if a good-ole boy with common sense got in there, he'd use common sense to fix everything" attitude has been a staple of American life for decades. That's part of why "Washington insider" is one of the worst things you can say about somebody. Could you imagine if CEOs were chosen by a pseudo-random sampling of people*, and people consistently said things like "don't choose that guy! He's a business insider. I'm voting for pastor wacky-pants, because he knows how to make this company right with Jesus"
* ("pseudorandom" meaning that everybody from your high school teachers to Puff Daddy tell you to participate, and it's open to whoever shows up)
And even if it doesn't, it will mean 85% of the American media being required to pretend that Santorum has good ideas that are in now way outside of the American mainstream. It will mean millions of dollars spent trying to hammer that idea into the heads of every citizen, along with the notion that Obama is even more "out of touch" because he is so far to the left of Santorum. I support crossover voting, but please don't turn this into a game of electoral "chicken".
In my area, people are so partisan that you can pretty much guess a person's opinion:
1. 80% of them would say "Obama's had 3 years and everything isn't fixed yet! His fault". (I live in a conservative state.) 2. 20% would say "It's all Bush's fault".
People seem to be blaming congress more than Bush. 2008 was a complicated affair, and we (meaning most voters) didn't see it coming. Congress, OTOH, has made it clear that their primary concern is grabbing power, and that the good of the country is a lower priority.
Since the start, this has been compared to the great depression, so McCain may have known that four years was not enough time to get everything back to normal. But do you think that a man of his age would pass up the presidency, and let the other party run the country in what was being described as the next great depression, simply so he wouldn't be known as the "depression president"?
I would hate to think if voting in an opposing party's primary were a federal offense. As a liberal in a deeply red state, I know that the only vote I have is my vote in the GOP primary. They will vote "Not Obama", and the electoral college system assures that "Not Obama" will get my share of my state's votes. I should have some say in who "Not Obama" is.
The only difference between what I'm doing and what Santorum is encouraging is that I am voting for the guy who I would want to see in office, if Obama loses. To me, it's important, but I understand that most people wouldn't care about that distinction.
But, Ron Paul only cares about your Freedom at the federal level. So, you may want to add a location parameter and a database to store the listings of what freedoms you have in which counties.
The GP in his "web host IP protection status" comment may be referring to the conditional safe harbor for "online service providers" and internet service providers. IANAL, and don't know if it applies here, but it is a provision in copyright law that says that if Google is just giving people a dumb pipe to deliver videos, then they can't be held responsible for the content of those videos. Of course there are ways around that, if they wanted to take down a Microsoft video (modifying their TOS, for example).
One of the more common reasons is "not old enough", and another is "that's what I'm waiting in line for". It would be interesting to see what percent of children in a pediatrician's waiting room have not yet been vaccinated.

I thought cannibalism in dogs was kind of rare.
Did you hear that from a scientist?
Africa is the oldest human society on earth.
Why is it upon the rest of the world to figure out "How To Feed Africa"?
Grandma is the oldest person in my house. Why should it be up to me to feed her?

So, you don't want to live in a country with birth control, because it is a slippery slope to forced combat.
Mr. Santorum, is that you?
Exactly
Do you know what else has poor soil? The Amazon Forest http://rainforests.mongabay.com/0502.htm
It took me a moment to realize you weren't talking about the company. Damn, you internet!
Sorry. I'll try to IMDB next time.

I didn't know that. I guess they'll have to come up with some crazy plot ideas if the series lasts more than a few more years, then.

Here's an ML function call to help you figure it out without Slashdot intervention:
fun caresAboutYourFreedom(candidate : Democrat) = 0

More like...

| caresAboutYourFreedom(candidate : RonPaul) = 1
| caresAboutYourFreedom(candidate : Republican) = 0
Do some reading man. ;)

Another example of how the US government is trying to shield people from the consequences of their actions.
Is it that, or is it the government trying to shield people from the consequences of other people's actions?
You buy a new car every two years? No wonder you never see a mechanic.
4. "for whatever reason"
One of the more common reasons is "not old enough", and another is "that's what I'm waiting in line for". It would be interesting to see what percent of children in a pediatrician's waiting room have not yet been vaccinated.
...they are controversial though...so much so that they tend to insight riots.
Do you remember when they were in that boy band, nSight? I think it was mostly to piss off blind people.
