    There are lot of factors that lead to this. The Media being a big deal. So is first past the poll and our unlimited campaign money.

    If the debates were proper formal debates that would go a long way. I don't think enough americans care about that sort of thing though.

    Ah, so not a lack of functionality just not shiny enough for some.

    I am a big boy I can do without the handholding shiny.

    What DR is postgres missing?

    I really want to know since I use it all the time. Streaming replication works great.

    If you can afford an $80k vehicle you don't need to drive more than 3 hours. You can take a plane and sit in first class.

    It's a luxury car.

    Cheap gas fueled car is not going to be an option anyone buying this considered. A BMW 5 is not cheap.

    Care to elaborate?
    Are there no cases were murder is acceptable?

    I take it you have never watched a loved one die a slow death over the course of weeks or more.

    If I believed in a hell I would tell you to go there.

    Once you head down this road you make preparations ahead of time, divorce if necessary.

    CO poisoning is quick. We are not talking about breathing over minutes or hours. We are talking about just a couple lung fulls. You won't have time for most of the nasty effects.

    No that was propaganda.
    My family lived through that horror you jackass. The Nazis only used that message for the outside, the people knew what was going on and could do nothing about it without also facing their deaths.

    Read the proposed law. We are not in 1939 and there are no Nazis checking how we vote.

    What does that have to do with it?

    The death penalty is not vengeance, it is only preventing the person from continuing to be a danger to others. Society does not set out to murder, only protect itself.

    Usually they do not exclude suicide except for a short term up front. A few months to a year is the common exclusion term.

    Even if the DailyFail was being truthful, they shaved what a couple days of misery off the end of a life. Sounds wrong, but not quite so horrible. If I end up in that condition I hope someone is so generous.

    What would the toxicology screening find?
    That a dose of morphine that would not have killed a normal person might have done him in? Or that since he was on morphine for so long he was on an unusually high dose?

    Choosing to kill yourself and killing others is quite different. If you cannot see that you are beyond help.

    Life insurance will NOT GO TO DEBTORS.

    Life insurance is payed to the beneficiary not the Estate. Life insurance can not be claimed against for debts of the deceased since it was never paid to him.

    Creditors will lie to you about this, they will attempt to swindle you out of the money.

    One of my greatest regrets is not noticing when a doctor did this. They left the morphine drip machine unlocked and showed us how we must not turn it up. I was only 14, but I really wish I would have realized what they were trying to tell us at the time.

    Is there much of a difference between prescription opiates and street ones? Seems like everyday you hear more and more about the prescription ones being sold on the street or abused by radio personalities.
