That is true, if the facts are being reported from a different perspective, perhaps with a slightly different emphasis. The problem with Fox News (I can't speak for RM's other companies), is that they have too many activists who don't care what the facts are. I used to watch Fox News, because I wanted to have my opinion challenged, but there were just a few too many times when I would have to go to my computer to fact-check the talking point that had gone unchallenged the past week, or to simply hear the other side of the debate, that I eventually realized that it wasn't worth my time.
During every presidential administration for the past 30 years...When Reagan took office, the top tax rate was at 90%. Obama suggested increasing the same bracket's rate from 36% to 39% and was accused of being a socialist.
Sadly enough, you're probably right. I'm sure that any attempt to obscure or change your license plate is illegal, but this is something completely new, and not in any way analogous to painting different numbers on an existing plate, or covering the plate with a bumper sticker.
So, does it take an expert on Islam to know that the whole lawsuit is bullshit? Or do we have to be lawyers? I can agree with some of your sentiment, but it doesn't take an expert, in any field, to criticize an atrocity.
Not to mention that the middle east is not the entirety of the Muslim population. 31% of them live in India. Assuming that all Muslims conform to a middle eastern stereotype is a little like assuming that all Christians are hillbillies from the Appalachian mountains.
Because it causes every democratically elected official to be less effective. They have to fight harder to promote a bill that nobody would have a problem with, when "you have the wrong letter after your name" is already a deal-breaker fro most.
And who can blame them, right? I wondered when I'd start to see fresh pleas for alternative energy sources. If you've got that card, now is the damned best time to play it with the BP disaster fresh in everyone's minds.
Absolutely...It's like when a morbidly obese man has a heart attack and the doctor plays the "maybe you should lose weight" card. The only part I would disagree with is the phrasing "card" which implies that the prevention of spills is not a valid reason to move to cleaner energy.
I have to admit, I was wandering how many men in clean white coats were producing drugs in the seventies, but people from the 1900s had the exact same problems we do today. Drugs were largely deregulated, and people had no problem buying "medicine" from snake oil salesmen. By legalizing this, it will fall under the control of the FDA, and we will come a little closer to seeing his "men in white coats".
From Uwe Boll's wikipedia entry (this is priceless): "Another reviewer wrote that Alone in the Dark was "so poorly built, so horribly acted and so sloppily stitched together that it's not even at the straight-to-DVD level."[16] For example, in one scene a character who was "killed" can visibly be seen getting up as the actor prematurely made the move to get off the set."
Maybe she should have done that two hours sooner and saved herself some embarrassment.
You're absolutely right about the lack of realism. We're talking about a video game where actors can fling fireballs, ninjas can freeze people and rip their spines out, and Gods get their asses kicked by the aforementioned actor, all while fighting on giant cinder blocks. We have enough cognitive dissonance to not question these things in a video game, but when someone tries to work a signature move, goofy catch-phrase, or other video game artifact into a movie, then we realize how ridiculous they are.
We do have miles per gallon in America. Requiring an extra line that converts this to gallons per mile doesn't hurt anybody, but I remain convinced that this is a non-issue.
No sarcasm at all. The FDA helps us distinguish between effective medication and snake oils being sold as "herbal", "homeopathic", or "all natural" remedies.
We laugh at the ridiculous claims of the famous "pigmy" leader's regieme whilst falling victim to the same scam in our own backyard. Look at the weight loss scam products that are out there that have spawned almost a billion dollar industry. It would seem that these shady product vendors bring a product to market long enough to make a large sum of money before being discovered as, at best inefffective and at worst, outright fraud. I find it funny that we laugh at the "Super Drink" while we become easily duped by advertisements on TV that claim super weight loss.
The problem seems to be that you have to grasp this item with both hands. So, if you're too busy to take a break, then who is going to tell you when it's time to see if it's time for a break?

Right, she's a one-eyed mutant with an ancient alien for a pet, and he's his own time traveling grandson. You'd think they'd have more to talk about.
I think they should add speakers and show "everybody Loves Hypnotoad". That would make the drive home less stressfull.

I own a few music CDs, and some of them sold less than a million copies...I'm glad to hear that I'm the copyright holder.
If it can properly rate if these people are hot or not.
I think we need a site called "bot or not". You look at someone's browsing history and determine the likelihood that their system is infected.

Should've chosen Keith Richards. Man's practically indestructible. If we could reverse engineer him, we'd have a genetically perfect superarmy.
An army that's only useful for an attack on the playboy mansion or a large alcohol factory.
Now that Afghanistan has all these resources, what do you think they're going to build?
That's cruel. Trying to decode random noise will make you go mad.

That, and the jury is predisposed to assume that if you're being sued, you're probably guilty.
got a torrent?
No, but still enough to be annoying.

Understanding the limits of your own knowledge is the furst step on the path to +3 insightfulness.
I thought +1 Karma bonus was the first step.

This is why FDA approval is a good thing.
Any chance a large amount of oil would fix things?
No, but I'm unfamiliar with Guatemalan politics. Which party do we blame for this?

A better analogy might be "That's a nice coat you're wearing. You look like you make more than $20,000 per year, so you're guilty of tax evasion"
