What a load of horseshit. The only people this affects are people who were captured actively plotting or engaged in warfare against the United States, its armed forces and or its allies. Why the fuck you idiots are so dead set on protecting their rights, and think its some kind of slippery slope to let us do what we need to do to protect the country and other free societies from those whose stated objective is the wholesale slaughter of you, your family, and even your dog if it came down to it, is completely beyond me or anyone else with two synapses to rub together.
I must take exception to the volunteer vs. Read FD statement. By real, I assume you mean paid, because, other then being paid and manning the trucks 24 hrs, there is no difference between volunteer and paid firefighters. They both do their jobs equally as well.
...maybe random sectors of the galaxy everywhere get sterilized back to lifelessness by magnetar events often enough to keep the average density of life in the galaxy near zero, because life simply can't persist very long?
What do you need to see, creationist? A sign from god?
Oh, how droll. Do you get points at your sing-alongs when you use phrases like that against the infidel non-drop-every-thing-and-scream-at-every-little-dr eamed-up-crisis-like-a-chicken-with-his-head-cut-o ff person you come across? Good boy! You get a biscuit! Calling someone a creationist simply because they disagree with your almighty 'faith' in science is a cop-out when you don't have facts on your side, and it's all you can resort to to try to get your non-well thought-out point across. I happen to have a strong faith in science myself, and science shows we can't have as much of an impact as those who are too caught up in their own sense of self-importance would like us to. The last ice age, volcanoes, and the billions of years that this planet has been in existence, yet some scientists using an incredibly short span of history believe they can suddenly prognosticate what impact we humans are having on a planet whose age is so large a number that we can scarcely wrap our minds around it say we're suddenly about to impact it more than all of the previous time combined, and suddenly people are dropping their mashed potatoes and jumping off cliffs.
You bash religion, against someone whose own faith isn't as strong as some family would like it to be, yet you yourself are following these scientists (have have just as much data against them as with them) as though they are you own personal Saviour.
Take a drink of water, sit back and listen to some music. It's really not as bad as you think.

Without proof of global warming being a flawed theory.
I have a theory that donkeys will fly out of my ass next Tuesday at 3:15 UTC. Purple ones at that. Can I get my theory put in the textbooks? There's no way to debunk it either, and it's got as much merit as proveable fact about 'Global Warming'.
Thank you, AC. Liberals LOVE to give away OTHER people's money, but not their own. The IRS will gladly take any amount you want to give. However, that's not good enough for some. They want to take the money that (collectively speaking) I bust my ass to make, and then fritter away on bullshit social programs that I'm not allowed to dare *question* one bit. Forgetting that it's my hard work that is paying for it. If the social engineers out there want to pay for their little programs, let them, but let them be the first to write the check out of their own account. That won't happen however. And this isn't some 'for the common good' tax. This is all based on dubious science at best, and at worst, it's pure fantasy. Prove it otherwise, and we'll talk. Until then, SOD OFF. I have enough bills to pay already.
Wow. You actually were able to post facts about Iraq instead of the made-up leftist garbage that is usually bandied about as fact on Slashdot, and not get modded down into oblivion? You are my new god.
No, you've got to be kidding. You expect someone who still thinks Gore won the election is capable of reading, much less coherent throught processes? You should be modded +5 Funny, but you won't be, as you've gone against the Slashdot Offical Groupthink Code (tm).
Slashdot Mirror
I'm running Internet XP. Whats what is says when I turn the little TV thingie on...
Leave it to the NYT to try to out a military research project that might be aimed at PROTECTING US FROM MISSLES!!
If you still read the NYT for any kind of real reporting, KILL YOURSELF.
You keep using this word, "right". I do not think it means what you think it means.

I think you mean Kiefer Sutherland....
It doesn't change the fact its an asshole attitude, and since you're from Norway, that pretty much explains it.
DUH. This is Slashdot.
Let me be the first to say...
Holy.
Shit.
(of course, similar things have happened to me....sadly.)

Well, then a hear LOTS of blacks being very insulting to each other every day on campus. Oh wait, its not offensive when THEY say it. Got it.
That's a big twinkie...
This is Slashdot. 5 minutes and you'll have plenty of ways to blame on the US. As sure as the sun rises.
You can't seriously use Al Jazeera and the word Journalists in the same sentence. You CAN'T be that dense. Oh wait, this is Slashdot. Carry on.
Thanks. Now I need a new kbard. C|n>K
When my cousin was away at college, he melted somebody's PDA in a microwave. He was suspended.
I would have opted to beat the living shit out of him instead.
...maybe random sectors of the galaxy everywhere get sterilized back to lifelessness by magnetar events often enough to keep the average density of life in the galaxy near zero, because life simply can't persist very long?
Thanks. I'm gonna sleep real well tonight now.
Blasphemy!

Well, since the kneejerk pussy liberals considered Clinton the second coming of Christ, then Bush in in good company.
Idiot.
HAHA!!!! You point to *FAIR* as an unbiased news source???!! You might as well pull up Baghdad (there are no American tanks here) Bob!!!

I'd like to place my order for one set of wings. On my back.
