It's also strange that people seem to keep forgetting that the United States is actually 50 countries not 1. Kind of the like claiming Germany should be called Europe just because it is in the European Union.
That is why the popular vote means jack squat in the end.
All perspective is relative and all space is infinite. There is no left and right. There is free and not free and all the variations in between.

You are criticizing us by moving the origin point to a location that makes you look reasonable and us crazy. That is dishonest/delusional.
What you don't seem to realize is just a few points to the left from your "reasonable" position are the historical governments of Hitler's Germany and Stalin's Russia. All you need is another major economic, cultural, or military crisis (almost there on all three) and the rise of a ruthless leader willing to use all that power Europeans have just handed over to their government like the good little sheep they are.
We on the other hand are pushing very hard to stay as far away as possible from those positions and are more than happy that you find it disappointing.
CNN is more guilty of looking into the sky to comment on the weather rather than look down at their feet as they step over the bodies left in the wake of their pet political ideologies and parties.
"We don't lie" is not the same thing as "We tell the truth"
They just conveniently forget to mention all stories that might go against their narrative.
This is a non-story. Anyone that is familiar with NIPR/SIPR military network would understand this.
A "forbidden" connection could be something as simple as using the wrong color network cable when setting up the NIPR machine. There are pages of rules on setting NIPR and SIPR connected machines near one another. Also it wouldn't be "secret" either because the network guys would have to actually set it up and give it access top to the network.
This is completely different than say setting up a personal civilian server in your bathroom and then totally ignoring the NIPR and SIPR machines the tech guys set up for you because you couldn't be bothered with remembering your password or encrypting your email traffic.
Yeah that was basically the same thing that happened to me. My nephew wants a gaming rig and my sister was asking me about it. Didn't know what to tell her.
I know we are long past that, so what game now is the recorded holder for "most ridiculous hardware requirements to run on max settings" these days?
Triple 4K monitors layout with Star Citizen/Battlefield 1? I've been so busy adult'ing this past decade I've not been keeping up.
I just realized my core machine is nearly 7-8 years old and the last time I threw a new video card at it was one that was already 3-4 generations out of date and that was 4 years ago.:'( Time to start spec'ing out a new box.
Pretty much for the first time in a long time we might actually be able to get some pretty crappy progressive rulings knocked down and get some of our individual rights back.
It is disappointing, where I'm at the protests have all been pretty tame. Florida doesn't put up with that kind of crap so they've been behaving themselves.
You haven't been watching the news lately huh? All the SJWs Nazi JV teams are blocking highways and attacking Trump supporters and the cops in the major cities.
Funny though here in Tampa it has been very quiet. Oh yeah that's right we have stand your ground laws here and shoot those kind of people if they turn into a rampaging mob.
Most of us do not oppose a safety net. What we oppose is people not even bother climbing high enough to need a net, but stopping at the net and getting comfortable and raising their kids there.
We also oppose people who spend their whole lives just living and not bothering planning on the future and then playing the little old person game of "poor little ol me needs help". What were you up to for the past 60 years?! You need the government to help you because you didn't bother having any kids, oh wait you had kids and they want nothing to do with you because you raised shit bags or were horrible to them?
This will be all great only if they deregulate the other half of the equation which is letting every ISP into every market. Currently as it stands there are mini-monopolies all over the damn place. This is mostly due to State and Local nonsense, but the FCC has a hand in it too.
Though it is all looking like a non-issue as wireless services are eating everyone's lunch at this point, and if SpaceX steps into the arena with their thousands of mini-com-sats Musk is going to turn around and eat theirs across the whole globe and all the way out to Mars.
In the immortal words of Inigo Montoya "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
There needs to be a rule that every time someone going on about our governments being Democracies just needs to slapped like the retarded child that they are.
You are correct, about that, but I don't think even China is willing give all the profits to be made off of the US. Half of something is better than all of nothing.
I think China, Japan and some of the others are going to come around to the idea that they are going to have to open up their markets to our products the same way we are opening to theirs if they want to continue to have a relationship with us in the future.
You know how much money we are going to save by stop paying the NATO bills that most of Europe has been welching on for the past 30 years? We won't need Europe to buy our goods on how much we won't be spending on their security.

Imagine the space program we could have.
Hillary did too, only difference, the masses didn't believe her.

Dude, I'm not white. WTF are you babbling on about?
Maybe. SJWs social justice warriors. Usually just whinny college kids. There are black college kids, so probably.
Yeah those guns that you "own" are just Battlefield unlocks. Not real guns.

Moving to Detroit?

Now I'm just back to worrying about zombies.
Got yourself a public school education did you?

Random inane post.
Random inane post to pull my mod points back.
Apple and Exxon going broke will not cause me any loss of sleep.
