Not that Obama was perfect by any means, but he did try to get Congress to remove some of the crazy powers the President now has but the GOP wanted those powers if it won so they refused. Or maybe it was just because Obama was black. Honestly, I can't even tell anymore why the GOP hated him so much there is video of it's leaders publicly stating they will oppose anything Obama does, no matter what it is. They weren't banking on Trump winning, though, and now the most unstable, thin-skinned, easily manipulated, foolish, childish, moron on the planet has scary, relatively unchecked power.
His mother was 100 percent white. He called himself black http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04... to race-bait and pander. Probably the most racist thing he accomplished during his presidency was to deny his white ancestry. So how the heck is his blackness part of why could couldn't achieve his goals?!?
But they never have a hard time showing up to vote -- allegedly multiple times according to some reports. If the tables were turned and these poor souls were tending to vote for Republicans, we'd see this vulnerability closed instantly by the blue side of the force.
Funny, libs make up a very large part of dot-com type jobs. So how did this become a rant about republican fascism? Are you suggesting Lord Bill is suddenly a republican? Enjoy your job being replaced by someone from China or India so your masters can spread the wealth.
Yeah the guys that want people to work for a living are the deadbeats. I hope your job is outsourced to India so you can praise the efforts of your liberal masters some more - yeah, they built that too.
Rwanda is actually pretty nice, lived there for 2 years - you're sounding like another lib-bigot lovely assuming that everything outside of your sphere of awareness is icky and should be destroyed.
Fed Govt does help with some very important things, indeed but it doesn't have to be the provider of everything. Transit, national defense sure. Defining school lunches content and morality rules nation wide - not so much.
Just like the big tobacco law suit money. How much of that is being used for smoking cessation or more importantly, to treat tobacco related illnesses? Almost none of it. It's a slush fund for pet projects. Politicians are rotten.
Well, you have a point. They also want the same perks in the military and don't have to sign up for selective service and combat is optional. Equal rights should come with equal responsibilities. There are some fixes needed.
Yeah, even the computers are being called racist now. I suppose the ACLU will call the output hate speech and the SPLC will label the manufacturer as a hate group. I wish there was a color-blind solution to helping with the socio-economic vicious circle some demographics are finding themselves in. Race baiting and gender politics are a failed method that keeps the poor folks dependent on the pandering scum politicians that have no real interest in actually helping them escape the shackles of the urban plantation (and not just blacks).
This seems a bit ridiculous. Should everyone be able to post all over the government websites too?
If NRA types posted on the POTUS twitter feed during his tenure, their comments would have been mopped up and no one would have cared. The double-standards are getting old.
What we should be doing is ignoring his Twitter feed altogether and let him howl at the moon all he wants. Caring about his knee-jerk Twitter remarks is only encouraging him.
Worker owned != communism. There are some similarities to communes and co-ops but communism is a horrifying scaled-up version that makes in mandatory and only rewards a government class. It always fails, sometimes it takes longer. China is doing better than most by having a weird hybrid thing going where some of their entrepreneurs are being rewarded for doing more than the minimum to get the basic rations. Your love of communism should earn you a stay in one of these worker's paradises.
I don't know why they call it whistle blowing when it is a mass document dump. Mr/Miss Manning dumped about 300,000 documents just to hurt the USA as much as possible. There is nothing admirable about that. Snowden wasn't much better. If they were passing information to a congressmen with a security clearance - AFTER attempting internal channels, I'd be a lot more sympathetic, but they are dumping it out there for all the world to see, especially the bad guys.
Need to bring back the death penalty for this treason - although the definition of treason has been narrowed to an unenforceable extreme. You'd basically have to give it to the enemy on a battlefield while stating that your wish to betray your country for treason while being broadcasted on TV for it to kick in nowadays.
Since 1791 when the 1st amendment was ratified: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to *petition the Government for a redress of grievances*.
And the right to petition includes the ability to, "make a complaint to, or seek the assistance of, one's government, without fear of punishment or reprisals". Being blocked by the POTUS is reprisal for the complaints made earlier. Posting a picture of the Pope looking sternly at Trump isn't a complain? Go back to the first amendment and read the part about freedom of speech.
That's silly. Should they also be able to post on the main web page for the Department of State with their semi educated diarrhea that even makes their barista friends roll their eyes? Simply laughable. if they want to spew some political filth, they can do that on a news site comments board, Reddit or even here.
Population is irrelevant. A more fair measure would be pollution/GDP. The amount of productivity achieved for the amount of pollution is what should matter, but if you do the math, it doesn't fit the anti-USA narrative since we will be in the middle of the pack. I posted it last time the green fanatic "scientists" brought this up but/. seems to have truncated my old posts and I just don't care enough anymore to repeat it.
Trump wasn't even in town. You're really going to blame him for the actions of the paranoid Turkish regime? Those pukes beating those protesters all had diplomatic immunity. They can be expelled and that's about it. Meanwhile, the Turkish president summoned our US ambassador to complain that we did too much to interfere with their security operations. Lovely stuff.
P.S. Soros is expecting higher quality posts, you better pick up the pace or the pay checks will get thinner or stop altogether.
A snopes.com reference? They ceased to be useful when they tried to apply their craft to politics. Their work nowadays doesn't pass anything resembling diligence or intellectual muster. They'll debunk anything right-leaning unless the proof is absolute. Try reading some of their recent postings. Anything political is garbage from them now.
Yeah, Sheppard Smith is going to destroy FNC with his MSM approach to anything political. He probably wrote that apology himself. We don't need another MSNBC or CNN, FOX will just fade into oblivion if they try to emulate that super-saturated sector of left-wing propaganda "media". BBC is so refreshing compared to anything the US calls journalism nowadays. Sad.
All the insects probably registered to vote in the last election and it still wasn't enough for the worst candidate in history to beat OC. Voter ID laws would have kept the insects in Europe!....you're welcome.
Your reasoned arguments and data don't line up with the common narrative that human-caused climate change causes all of the world's problems. Shame on you! I was going to blame it on second hand smoke, since that's a popular target of their wrath as well.
I suppose we should all be paralyzed with guilt for being born human, too.
Have you noticed that Creimer never seems to get mad? Even when you're bombarding him with non-stop insults. I wonder if he's a bot, responding deadpan with slightly relevant responses to key words in your monologue. ---Or, even better. AC is also Creimer talking to himself as some form of release?!?
Right through my physics bachelor in the naughties I got by without a calculator. All I did in every exam was take each problem all the way to an explicit nunerical solution and finish with the statement "if I had a calculator I would compute this". Worked great and got great marks, and really never missed the things since high school.
"in the naughties" Freudian slip? Must have been a fun decade for you.
Slashdot is hillarious sometimes - I can't believe the stupid stuff people can argue about. One guy is making a correlation about UID number to country of origin and they other respond equally inanely, but even less sensibly. You act like the dumb kids that are on the news sites bashing each other 24x7 about how the latest regurgitation from their political masters tastes....We're only supposed to do that part-time here.

"LOL Only because they learned it from the GOP which was named the "Party of No" for most of the Obama years. You reap what you sow!"
"We need to get this bill passed so we can see what's in it!" - Nancy Pelosi
"You can keep your doctor." - Barack Obama
With governing like this, who wouldn't have obstructed some of the previous admin's efforts?!?

Not even absolute zero is below 3 degrees Kelvin. WTF is a degree Kelvin?!

Absolute zero is -273 C or 0 K.
