I went through the US driving test when I was 17 and passed. It patheticly easy. I sat and waited for a bit in my car in a line. A woman came in. We drove through one side street. Turned left onto a large street. Another left at a smaller street which led back to where we started. She got out, and I went in to get my picture taken. No parking, no nothing. Not even a single right turn. I realize that you can drive from Florida to Washington (not DC)just making lefts, but still. Her only complain to me was to keep both hands on the steering wheel. I still never do. Imho a retard could have passed that test.
This is typically true. This is the reason for Al Quada enmity. The hatred of the U.S. based in the ignorance of the hater.
Ignorance? Osama attended school here. Im pretty sure he understands how things work around here.
Sometimes, sometimes not. In the case of the efforts against Saddam and on behalf of Iraq, it is quite true.
You are implying that our reason for going into Iraq was because Saddam was evil. There are plenty of dictators around the world who are much worse than Saddam. Because of Saddam, Iraqi people were all fed and taken care off. Look at some other countries where people are dying because of starvation. There is no reason why Iraq should be singled out.
Personally I hate the US, and unfortuantely I am forced to live here. The US is like a bully. And this bully for some reason likes to go around killing people because he thinks it will protect his ideas. Or to completely ignore others because they have different ways of living(Cuba).
Maybe thats exactly why you should have drive through pot joints. Make em smoke the pot on the spot. And watch em drive away at 5mph(most likely their top speed for the day).
Well considering the number of people over the years I've seen shoveled into a grave. I'd say there's no such thing.
Name of the country just jumped out of my head, but there is one that distributes drugs legally. Having doctors shoot you in the arm with a disinfected needle, after medical tests to make sure you can handle it, is a bit safer then having your neighbor poke you with the aids infected one. It can be perfectly safe with tests and limited quantities.
The Bill of Rights is no longer law, and can be violated by anybody who feels like it. For example, the FCC said that certain forms of communications were not protected by the first amendment. The FCC, not an appointed body, answers only to the president, not elected, decided on its own that the first amendment is wrong. Lets be serious here, the constitution is being used for toilet paper these days.--George Carlin(idea).
Not all jobs you may want are actually good. Who here never screamed
"God Damn I wanna be a PORN STAR".
Only to read later in the job description that you have to jack off 10 times, and then go have sex for two hours. All while taking loads of pills, blood tests, and getting payed 1/5 of what the women get(feminism at work).
I used it on my AP too. But when I did it in 02 you needed to have all your work down anyway. I didnt, whenever there was a hard question I didnt feel like doing, I would just put it in the calculator, wrote some BS until the calculator solved it for me. When I saw the calculator had a solution, I would just put an = after whatever I was writing and put down the answer as if it was from heaven. Finished test early, took a nap.
I used MatLab. Has great packages for most things. Statistics package, graphing package. These were the two I used the most. Much more powerful and faster then my 89. I was working with large images, decompressing them to thousands of pixels and then working on them. Took under a second to do something to every value of a 100x100 matrix. Better programing stuff also. Dont know about the algebra system on it, but you can use Maple for that anyway.
So has he taken action to prevent Saddam Hussein from going to trial?
I agree he has done nothing toward that cause. But I have yet to see any real steps toward actually putting him in a court house with cameras in his face with the entire world to see. The question is not whether he will be on trial, but who will get to see the trial. The point is that the current administration would not want him telling Americans on camera how he met with Rumsfeld, and how he received money from the CIA.
Statements from dubya dont mean much. Its the actions that count. Like the Grandparent said, he lied to the international community and US citizens. And he is still doing it, notice how the conservative news stations are failing to call him on it.
I found the first place I saw this:Questions Dont have time to look at em now, but ill check it again later. And yes I realise this is a pretty weak source.
I agree with the Anonymousy on top of me. And also scaring people is a great way for him to get himself re-elected. His insentive in keeping the American people afraid of Muslims is pretty good. Seems to me he is scaring people to look away from the shitty economy. We need to give him a standing ovation for putting more Americans out of work then Hoover during the great depression. The GDP and the rising Stock Market dont mean much if there are more people losing jobs every day. I agree with the guy whose sig is "All I know is that I had a job when Clinton was president"(or however he worded it).
Reminds me of the Seinfeld rant. He said: Why do you only have a picture of the criminal? Why dont they just arrest him when they are taking the picture? Thats why they have the front and the side shot. The front is him taking a picture, and the side is of him leaving.
In my high school someone somehow replaced all the backgrounds on every computer into a porno background overnight. Tons of computers. The teachers had to go around changing them all morning. We need to do the same thing with all these computers. Change it into a picture of Hitler and put fatherland instead of homeland.
Im a computer engineer, I do not say that I know every part of how Norton works. Or even how the powersupply keeps a perfectly steady current through the computer. Yet you seem to be implying that because you were a pilot for 8 years you know every security measure in place. Were you just a pilot, what was your rank that you presume to know know so much?
Youre right, I would not remove all counter measures currently in place. If only 10% of crimes here are solved, while in Japan its more like 1% thats not solved, I would like to know what the police is doing with my tax money. Ironically I am indirectly being payed by the government while I am typing this. I would be all up for paying for the police taking a quick trip down there to see how to actually become affective crime solvers. Not necesarily stop crimes how about we start just by solving a couple. Im up for improving them, and if that means throwing them out, so be it.
Any time someone is stopped from boarding a plane because someone thinks they are a terrorist is automatically all over the news. Remember the guy w/ the bomb in his shoe. Im sure there are other examples. The press is happy to report that any security measure connected with the air line is working. Add to that the fact that most news sources are conservative, and you get one shoe all over every news station.
Idea of Dean(heard it by accident while bored at grandparents house): The Bush administration has theories, and when facts come that show those theories wrong, they throw out the fact not the theory. So would you keep pouring money into something that has proven not to work. Example can be made out of anything you said. Seat belt: scientists found that seat belts were killing babies in front seats. Instead of just saying oh well, they save more than they kill. They found a way so these automatic seat belts would not lock when there was a baby in the front seat. They threw out the old seat belts and made new ones.
I am not the only one that knows about the planes, found another comment below that knew of em too. If you want to disprove them, like I said dont just say its crap. Find out where this came from(since Im not the only one that has heard of it) and show that its a myth.
Should Clinton have invaded China in order to stop their space program? Do you have a problem with technological advances in other nations? Im not Asian and I live in America(I dont consider myself a good American because I like to think for myself), and I think its great that they have a space program. Competition is usually good for technological advancements on both sides.

what lies on Fox News are repeated? please specify these lies that merits the demonization of that organization.
Slashdot does not have enough memory to store everything reported by Fox News.
Its just the psychologists they use for marketing having a little joke.
Move along people, nothing to see here.

I dub you stupid. Hating authority is very American. It was what got us started. In essence you just made yourself unamerican.
Could anyone find who the winner was, and why this was not listed in the Herald article?

So your qualm is with how I delivered my message, not the message itself? The only problem you have with it is that I did not say it was my opinion?
The site http://www.sacbee.com/content/news/projects/libert y/story/7989769p-8926319c.html does not exist. Although I am happy that you wrote something like this. I proudly live in IL where all our rep's seem to have voted nay. I plan to actually vote come election season and give them my vote.

Saddam? If you mean Bin Laden and this is a real quote then Im all for killing him. I have no problem with the truth.
