  1. Don't blame me on Leaked: Obama's Rules For Assassinating American Citizens · · Score: 0

    I didn't vote for the moron....TWICE. Heck, Bush was just about as bad....Homeland "Security", patriot act etc...

  2. Find a good pre-pay on AT&T: Don't Want a Data Plan for That Smartphone? Too Bad. · · Score: -1

    Switched to straight talk a few months back after my death star contract ran out. Haven't looked back.

  3. An old one I remember on DMVs Across the Country Learning Textspeak · · Score: -1

    back in the late 80's, a nice restored 60's Chevelle SS had this one: SSA-DAB but it didn't make sense until I looked at it in the rear view mirror. Apparently the Missouri DOR didn't use a mirror :)

  4. 2nd Amendment on Machine Gun Fire From Military Helicopters Flying Over Downtown Miami · · Score: -1

    Training? BS! The government has NUMEROUS "fake cities" all over the USA for this purpose. They are doing this, as training, but not for overseas deployment, but for the day that either Obama, or some other president, enacts Marshall law, takes away your rights, guns, and forces you do OBEY their orders. THIS my friends, is one of the reasons for the 2nd amendment. They would have done this long ago, if not for the fact that there are millions of firearms in private hands. In WW2 a Japanese Admiral, Yamamoto was asked about invading the USA, and he basically said it wouldn't be worth it, because behind every door was someone with a gun!

  5. Wi-Fi OFF on Have a Wi-Fi-Enabled Phone? Stores Are Tracking You · · Score: 0

    Who keeps their wi-fi on all the time? Runs the battery down. I just turn mine off/on when I need it.

  6. They need to rename this on The World Remains Five Minutes From Midnight · · Score: -1

    to the "The Bulletin of the STUPID LIBERAL Atomic Scientists, because that's pretty much what it is.

  7. Good! on HP Software Update Cancels Food Stamps · · Score: -1

    Good! Make them get up off their butts and work instead of living off the taxpayers!

  8. Send congress on Trip To Mars Could Damage Astronauts' Brains · · Score: -1

    Send legislators....they have no brains.

  9. Will NEVER happen on Campaign To Remove Paper From Offices · · Score: -1

    I've been in the photocopier, printer, fax business for over 30 years. I've seen these paperless office ideas come and go for the entire time. In the mid/late 80's there was the governments "paperwork reduction act" that increased my volumes. Then, the government passed the HIPPA law and my volumes increased. A few years ago, the entire industry went to a multi-connected device that can scan, fax, copy, print...people were suppose to scan their documents instead of printing them. My volumes went up again. Every time the government comes out with new rules, changes the laws, my volumes go UP, not down. Most of it, in my opinion is that bureaucrats, be they in private companies or government, "need" paperwork to justify their jobs. Also, you run into the old problem with "we've always done it that way" people. In the early 80's as fax machines became popular, people would not purchase them, because they always had a messenger service. Now we can't get them to use scan to email because...yep, you guessed it, "we've always had a fax machine". People are comfortable with paperwork for some odd reason, even though 99% of it probably ends up in a shredder somewhere. Even though my business is paper, I keep all of my documents on PDF, if for anything else, they are SEARCHABLE instead of having to FIND it in a pile of papers.

  10. live axel on USMA: Going the Extra Kilometer For Metrication · · Score: -1

  12. Idiots on Pirate Radio Station In Florida Jams Automotive Electronics · · Score: -1

    Unless the cars don't have that little thingy under the door handle, they could just use the key to open it. He was broadcasting on 104.7mhz, lets say his sidebands were within tolerance... Anyone know what frequency those key FOBS use? 2.4ghz? That's some harmonic to get into those to screw them up....

  13. Red Nitro? on What Debris From North Korea's Rocket Launch Shows · · Score: -1

  14. IR3 will only end on Krugman: Is the Computer Revolution Coming To a Close? · · Score: -1

  15. in 1975, when I was in High school on 2012 Another Record-Setter For Weather, Fits Climate Forecasts · · Score: -1, Troll

    Time magazine & researchers were telling us what to do about the upcoming ICE AGE, and how to survive it. Now, the same idiots are telling us about global warming (whoops...climate change). The earth goes through cycles....and it is billions of years old. 5-10 years of data is but a blink in cosmic time.

    Only LOOKS conservative....due to the liberal bias of the rest of the news organizations.

  19. If you really want to eliminate on How Corruption Is Strangling US Innovation · · Score: 2

    corruption in the U.S. political system, TERM LIMIT the legislators to ONE term Senate gets ONE term, 10 years, House gets ONE term, 5 years. And at the end of the term, they MUST wait 10 years to run for the other chamber, to prevent them from ending one body of congress, just to get elected to run for the other body. Also, BAN all lobbying. Put K street OUT of business. You want to talk to a congressperson? Go to their LOCAL office in their home district, not DC. Next, congress will meet M-F, from 9am to 5pm, with only the traditional holidays. NO "spring break, NO Christmas (whoops "winter holiday) break. Also, there will be a dormitory built for them to live in while in DC, at no cost to congress. All meals provided for, single rooms. Also, transportation provided by shuttle bus to and from the capital. If you want to bring your own car? That's your business but you will not be refunded for gas/mileage. By doing this, the "hardship" of having to maintain two residencies will be eliminated. Next, all healthcare will be provided to them under the OBAMACARE mandate. They will have to live within the SAME LAWS they pass for everyone else. Doing most of these, and 70% of the career politicians will just give up and leave the chamber on their own free will. What DC needs is an attitude adjustment. They are NOT "kings & queens" to be swooned over and made to think they are above the rest of us. Time for NEW BLOOD in DC, which is what the founding fathers wanted in the first place. Come to DC, stay a few years, return to your home district and let someone else with new ideas come here. What we have now is a different version of the Politburo, but without the crappy soviet ear cars.

  22. Screw Africa on UN Summit Strikes Climate Deal Promising "Damage Aid" To Poor Nations · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Look at the continent of Africa...pretty much everything south of the oil fields IS A WASTELAND. A black preacher said it best...."you blacks ain't built nothin' ". Yep, pretty much hits the nail on the head! Why should countries, that actually BUILT up their nations, be forced to once again prop up countries that want to run around barefoot, shooting each other with spears? Oh, but their countries are run by dictators? Yeah, and where do you think the trillions already handed to these countries (unicef) has gone?

    I was 17 when this thing launched...remember it well, all the hoop-de-doo about that gold disk. Either the Klingons will get it, or maybe the Borg?

  24. Twinkies! on Scientists Develop Sixty Day Bread · · Score: 1

    Wonder (no pun intended) if they borrowed some of the technology from what allows the twinkie to last 20 years LOL.

  25. Too many LAZY people on Just Say No To College · · Score: 1

    The problem isn't so much about not going to college, but having the drive to do something after you get out of college. My job requires me to be on several 'higher learning" areas, and the common thread I see is LAZY students. They are more worried about hooking up, getting drunk/stoned/high, or some other alternate level of conscientiousness than to worry what they are going to do if they graduate. Granted, they are 18-22 usually, and that would be job #1 for the most part, but, if they had counselors who would explain to them what life was going to be like in a few years, maybe it could penetrate their polluted brain cells. I skipped the traditional 4 year and went to a trade school for two years. I have been employed & successful for the past 35 years. I had a high school counselor who was the best in figuring out what I loved to do, encouraged me and suggested a school to improve my skills. BEST thing that ever happened was skipping the 4 year college route. And, when I graduated? I was DEBT FREE!
