  1. Re:RT.com? on Cuba Calculates Cost of 54yr US Embargo At $1.1 Trillion · · Score: 1

    If any presidential candidate announced they would end the Cuban Embargo you can be certain the candidate would be not occupying the Oval Office..

    I disagree. Any politician that said they would end the embargo and open up unfettered access so families could visit each other both in the states and in Cuba would garner a landslide with the Cuban voters. The whole embargo is based off Castro dissing the US when the revolution happened (Cuban not American) and the US doesn't want to end the embargo or it looks like the teeny tiny island bitch slapped us.

    "But making the battery a rental was done for a good reason here, not just out of corporate greed or control freaking." They could have offered it as an option and not a requirement then.

    The lever machines will increase the caloric burn of the voters. Another attempt to get the populace into better shape.

    Since the principal at my grade school, Sister Juanita, told me "If you don't start living a christian lifestyle I'm going to pluck out your eyes and feed them to the birds". True story!

    When did we start? Kings need to provide birth certificates?

    Because we should respect each other from the get-go, even if the person holds public office. Then, since everyone gets treated better, everyone starts acting better. Then everything gets better! Yay Us!

  7. Re:Let's nuke them to be sure on Are Some of North Korea's Long-Range Missiles Fakes? · · Score: 1

    North Korea barely has electricity, they certainly aren't a threat. A small group of rednecks with shotguns could probably take on their entire military.

    I'm unsure how many rednecks would be a 'small group'. Could you translate that into how many 'pickup trucks filled with rednecks' that would be? Thanks!

    Do they have fricking laser beams?

    From orbit, I presume?

    That would be the only way to be sure...

    you mean aside from what we do today by actively ignoring it or denying its existence altogether? (we being the U.S.A)

    problems will be solved by taxing the h*ll out of the common citizen.

    Once all the h*ll is gone it'll be the rapture and we won't have to worry anymore...

    I believe the use of "w00t" denotes the presence of sarcasm.
