    Why not just hire employees you trust to get work done and dump the bureaucracy?

    What does bringing in foreign law enforcement agencies have to do with anything?

    Imagine if the courts had this attitude of "let's stop bickering about who started it" ...

    Thief-ocracy.

    Sounds like: "The bully's goals are just as justified as the victim's goals of defending itself."

    Secular governments just create disasters like Cambodia, USSR, China, Cuba -in short massacres, starvation, and (in best case scenarios) universal poverty.

    Didn't some people just win the Nobel prize because they used a laser to "peek" at entangled particles without affecting them?

    Wouldn't that defeat the whole purpose here?

    That's what George W. Bush offered to do with Putin.

    He said no to that.

    More often than not that leads to polishing things to death and no one ever sees the results.

    That's the most superficial thing I have ever read.

    Pascal said the worst punishment for a lot of people would be just that.

    And he concluded this shows just how superficial most people are.

    What scares me is how the liberals at slashdot want to kill these injured people the first chance they get when they are still very much alive!

    This is like suing the weather for being to cold.

    If Adwords doesn't get you a lot of clients, you shouldn't be able to sue anybody.

    GOP shouldn't concede because democrat concessions (i.e. spending cuts) never last. Government only grows.

    Yes, I agree. My point was they suddenly start to care and start thinking about why people are leaving and addressing the fires.

    In my experience when someone says, "I'm leaving," Management suddenly starts to care.

    Kind of like saying, "95% percent of your company's competitors want you to pick this person as the CEO".

  18. Re:Better... on Nate Silver's Numbers Indicate Probable Obama Win, World Agrees · · Score: 0

    There are liberals and conservatives that agree with you, but I don't. Obama had a lot of open areas in his agenda when he was elected (he was accused of being all things to all people), and he changed things up after he was elected (mandatory health insurance, gitmo, etc). As someone who voted against him, I'm OK with Obama for that. Challengers should keep it agile to focus on the incumbants' record. The thing which I am NOT okay with is Obama and Axelrod trying to move the conversation away from his record.

    Can you imagine a job interview where the candidate responds to: "Tell me about your experience," with, "Let's change that topic"? That's a short interview.

    Management tends to dislike turnover. And this is exactly the place where you have control.

    The thought of getting agitated for taking a job or having my pocket picked is a major turnoff for me.

    If the US builds it, the US should have monolithic control.

    So many levels of imaginary history here ...

    How many Neanderthal fossils do we have? A handful.
    How many have been discredited by darwinists? All of them.
    Who is rigging the science journals to keep out differing view points? The people who believe global warming is real.


    So basically imaginary people were made extinct by an imaginary problem.
