Increasing property taxes to spend on public schools, raising teacher pay so they don't feel the need to unionize, and getting involved in the curriculum at your child's school, are how you can fix it.
Whining and repeating illogical arguments you read on one of Grover Norquist's websites will kill public education and return us to a feudal educational system, in which the rich get learning and the poor get training.
"You might be joking, but if you voted for the person you felt was the best choice, you have nothing to apologize for."
You will have to apologize for having felt that way.
All of the facts were known about W, and all of the things he's done were predicted. Only the "random events" on which he hung his predictable acts were not predicted.
I got my Yorkfield from a kit-builder long before Newegg actually had them in stock. Call around. Someone out there ordered 5 or 6 more than he had plans for.
Rush Limbaugh just signed a half-billion dollar media contract.
You can bet the need for responsible refutation of right-wing lies will not be eliminated by the simple expedient of clearing them out of the White House and Congress.
And it'll be a decade or more before the Supreme Court is wrested from their cold, dead, Strict Manipulationist fingers.
If Redmond saw a value in that, they'd wax Linux on speed.
Linux is more likely to have users who can benchmark an OS. Windows users only know their newly installed version is faster than their old one. But in 18 months, they'll say it's dog-slow, even though objectively it may not have changed at all.
MS has been working on the boot-time issue, but only really caring about making it faster with each version and not about competing with Linux.
Linux, being behind on market share and having an inferiority complex, feels the need to point out any time it can take a nip out of the monster's heels.
The Internet, like television, has become a farm, where website developers raise eyeball-bearing click-monkeys like you and sell them wholesale to advertising resellers.
Once again, as with TV, you are not the customer of the Internet, you are its product.
Then either he doesn't sound like a Conservative or you don't get that laissez-faire is exactly the sort of un-self-regulating system that results in massive swings, with the up-swings making a small portion of the population fabulously wealthy and the down-swings making a large portion of the population utterly poor.
And such systems are not "cyclical" in the sense of predictable waves. They are "volatile" in the sense of unpredictable processes.
As for Elections, the key is to remain standing in front of those who have already chosen you, while attracting those who have not yet chosen, without losing too many of the former. In other words, if you have the nicer face you'd better have a great ass as well.
(To rebalance your minor distraction, yes, Republicans in Congress introduced and voted on the act that repealed the bucket-shop laws and created the unregulated gambling instrument known as the Credit Default Swap that caused the massive amplification of the housing-default problem. However, in the process they relied on advice from Alan Greenspan, who supported this piece of deregulation, and Bill Clinton signed it, for whatever reason. The Republicans had attached it to a larger, somewhat un-vetoable spending bill at the very end of a Congressional session. But Clinton was always amenable to "reasonable" easings of government control of business. It's the reason his economy was the best we've ever seen. He just should have had someone who remembered the Depression explain why Mr. Greenspan was wrong this time. Even Vegas is regulated on how it can mix credit and chance. Following that Act, the next Administration proceeded to pour gasoline on the flame, and not care that the curtains were on fire, since these were truly people whose only mental state is "fire good", and to whom "maybe we should get control of this" is a sinful thought.)
I bet if you add up all the votes CowboyNeal has gotten on Slashdot Polls, he could win this election.
(And yes, that's just the sort of "math" that's usually done by political operatives to create screed like "Obama will raise your taxes". The fact is, no matter who is elected, someone's taxes are going to go up to pay for the trillions of dollars in irrational, self-serving spending done by the Bush Administration. Why not make it the people who made the most money from his policies?)
That technical niggle was not the crux of the defense, really.
The reason the plaintiff won't appeal is that hyperlinking is even less than quoting in terms of importing statements made by the linked/quoted person.
The reason it will never come up again is everyone else will be smart enough to say "but your honor, YOU just followed the link."

Sarah Palin already has her T-shirts printed up

Freedom from proselytism is in the Constitution.
You can worship as you please, but if there's a tax dollar supporting the school, keep your Flying Spaghetti Monster out of the biology texts.
That's because empirical evidence shows that Facts == Liberal Bias.
"Unless Palin is actually teaching the class her outlook on evolution has zero to do with her relation to education."
False.
Educational programs are the result of political processes.
The problem is, you were offered the filet and the trout almondine, and both were quality meals, but you wanted hot pockets and weed.
If you want people to vote for someone other than a Democrat or Repblican, run a third-party candidate who can get more than 4% of the vote.
"You might be joking, but if you voted for the person you felt was the best choice, you have nothing to apologize for."

Now they pay no attention to it because it is atavistically pledged to a single candidate.
States aren't people.
The President should be elected by a nationwide popular vote, not by overcounting the votes of the winning party in each state.
Then vote for the guy who will make it less worse than the other guy while you do the work of changing the system.

McDonald's should offer anticoagulants as a condiment.
"and they charge only a very nominal fee on top of it"
Sounds like a conflict of interest to me.
Why improve security when it makes you money to leave it ragged?

But it hasn't slain anything.
laissez-faire is how criminal societies work
when you throw away all regulation, natural selection takes over, might makes right, and pure politics is your economy
Since when are your eyeballs the "community".

P.S. google this to get the answer
2 * sqrt( pi * ( 450 / 2 ) ^ 2 ) mm / 160 nm * sqrt( pi * ( 450 mm ) ^ 2 ) / 12 m/s
oops. forgot to carry the 2.
a 450-mm wafer would actually take 3.8 days to write
and that's for just two layers
80 nm line width?
12 meters/second?
assume 5x5 mm die size
31250 80-nm lines spaced 80 nm apart can be laid on this die in one direction; twice that if the orthogonal direction is involved
each of these lines is 5 mm long, so their total length is 312.5 meters
at 12 m/s this will take 26 seconds per die
a 450-mm wafer, on the other hand, if treated as one big die, would take 31.5 minutes to cover in crossing lines.
CowboyNeal resumes breathing, and takes his finger off the main power switch.
