Your post is a complete contradiction. First you say "the REAL reason it's going to happen is because import businesses want it. I actually import goods from China/India, and it takes weeks to deliver. Eliminating this shipping time is absolutely key in a competitive environment."
Then you say, 'The days of 'Hard-Working-Corporations-Can-Solve-All-Our-Problems' are over. It is now time for government to solve all our problems."
Which is it? If you want it so bad for your company, you should pay for it. If it is such a good deal, someone with capitol will pony up the money and be raking it in from all of the people like you who want faster shipping times.
You do realize that there is a difference between "the water cure" and waterboarding right? The water cure involves forcing the recipient to drink large quantities of water resulting in gastric distension and can lead to death. The Japanese when using this during WWII would then smack the recipient's belly and cause the stomach to burst. Waterboarding involves running water over the face of the recipient, simulating drowning, not forcing them to drink it.
Except that it is not based on an officer's hunch. They have to have already made contact with you for a legal reason, ie a traffic stop, and they have to have "reasonable articulable suspicion" which is by definition the opposite of a hunch.
The thing that gets me is that if I click on one of the new "links" on the left or on my gmail inbox, I cant use the back button on my mouse to get back to the home page. I have to go back to the top left and click the "home" button. Why do so many websites now have to break the way the web worked by not using normal hyperlinks?
Many people have been suggesting this for years, its usually called a voucher system, but the entrenched unions and administrators refuse to give up their stranglehold on all of that money.
Actually no, its not the states' representatives that voted for it. Its the people's representatives. Thanks to the 12th amendment, the senate is no longer the representative of the states. If the states themselves were still to pick the senators, then your statements would be correct and the states would have no one to blame but their own representatives.
I think you still miss the point. Yes we elect a representative to vote for us, but that does not mean that he is obligated to vote the exact way a majority of his constituents would like on a given topic.
If the majority of constituents do not feel that after his term is up, he voted the way they would have liked, they THEN have the ability to replace him with someone else.
Most people already do celebrate Christian holidays, look at Christmas, and Easter. I think the real problem is Christians being forced to secularize their holidays. Cities are no longer able to have Christmas parades, they have to have holiday parades. Easter break has now become spring break. So please stop celebrating Christian holidays so that they can go back to being Christian.
This already happens. I get checks all the time saying that if I cash the check, I agree to be automatically signed up for a credit protection program on my credit card, and pay $25 a year.
You have to think hard before you consider DIRECTLY supporting an institution that is that dangerous.
Sorry but a lot of what defense contractors do is just that, defensive, not offensive.
Fuck the Amish and all other religious extremists.
Why dont people realize that being this against religion is just as extreme? Our nation was created to be a safe haven for people to worship freely, you are entitled to believe what you want, just as the President is entitled to believe what he wants.
USC has a pretty decent graphics program for their masters degree. The also have distance education so you could essentially stay where you are and get the degree.
First of all Bush was up front about how long it would take. Secondly, the only reason people are clammoring about the amount of American lives lost is because the media has to let everyone know everytime someone gets hurt over there. The casualty numbers are still FAR less than the number of people that would have died had saddam been left there.
The Constitution of the United States, Art. III, defines treason against the United States to consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid or comfort. This offence is punished with death. By the same article of the Constitution, no person shall be convicted of treason, unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court.
What Bush did was the EXACT opposite of treason, he is the only one who had the guts to go after the enemies of the US.
According to Article II Section 4 of the US Constitution: "The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors."
First of all we are NOT a DEMOCRACY. We are a republic, and yes I am against democracy, just as the founding fathers were. Go read the federalist papers and see just what the founding fathers invisioned. http://www.law.ou.edu/hist/federalist/
"preferably by directly storing the compressed video data without reencoding, ala DirecTivo."
DirecTivo, does not reencode the data, it stores the stream exactly as it comes from the satellite. This is why there are no quality settings like on other stand alone Tivo's which do take a digital signal, convet it to analog, then convert it back to digital to be stored.
This law is nothing like the emissions standards in California. Those laws do not take away the liberties of people who have not, and dont plan on breaking the law.
It is different in that yp.yahoo.com, only searches business listings in your area, the Google Location searches all websites that contain any address that matches the location specified.
Don't you mean revise science, the Bible hasnt changed in thousands of years (note the dead sea scrolls which are the same as the current versions of the Bible). It is science that changes its mind everytime something new is discovered, cant they stick with one story.
I dont know what your talking about, my monthly electricity bill is around $160. I guess that could be due to the 10 computers running 24/7 but they couldnt take that much power could they:)

Except you forgot the part about "willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment". The SF Mayor did NOT accept any penalty.

Notice how he said "citizen" of a free country, not terrorist.

Wow that is one of the worst written posts I have ever read! Try using some punctuation next time.

Yeah that actually works out to be apporximately 667220327295957771496812.95574857 or 6.67x10^23 address per square meter on the surface of the earth!
