I disagree that it would necessarily be all direct replies as well. I think it would be fairly similar to what it is here; a lot of direct replies, but a lot of discussion as well. Don't discount the social nature of human beings.
The problem is that even the credit unions themselves downplay the availability of the free reports, since they too have programs to sell you one more conveniently than the free program allows.
Whether or not it's a good thing... I don't know. It seems perhaps a bit much to force students to help out... but then, it could do some serious good as well.
Dr. King was a great person. It makes him no less dead.
I wouldn't care who the person was; you shouldn't be claiming to know what a dead person would think in order to promote your own agenda. You are not God, and you are not that person.
I give everyone a default respect level of one. They go up or down based on my interactions with them. I simply don't understand why some people seem to give a default of zero... it just seems mean.
Put another way, I make no negative assumptions about anyone without evidence.
Exit polls, good sir, exit polls. They have 19% of the precincts actually reporting numbers, but they can get a much better idea by asking people as they exit the polls.
The leader of the current US Socialist Party was actually on Colbert a week or so ago, and basically said that he didn't get the whole "socialist" name-calling at Obama... he just doesn't represent socialism at all.
I was actually watching the election coverage mostly on BBC World News last night. It was kinda refreshing. They were a lot more lighthearted than the American commentators, I found... except for that blowhard John Bolton, but they got rid of him eventually (a bit after he attacked one of the Beeb's own reporters). Two of them basically called it unofficially for Obama way early on;^)
But yeah, they had Ted Koppel and John Bolton on there, as well as a few other Americans I believe... it can hardly be said that they were giving it a "British slant". The roundtable discussion method of presenting it was quite effective, I found.
Wouldn't there be huge amounts of interference if the spectrum was unlicensed? Could someone not just make a jammer for the frequencies in question and spoil it for everyone? Or do FCC laws cover that even when it's not formally licensed? IANAEE.

It's like your comment goes so far into flamebait that it overflows and turns into insightful.
Which is a contraction of would have.
Slashcode's moderation system seems to do it pretty well.
Only 3420 comments, but you get the idea.

If A supports B,
and A believes C,
it does not necessarily follow that B believes C.
Unfortunately that seemed to be one of the major repeated logical fallacies of the McCain campaign.
Meh, honestly, I'd expect that sort of partisanship on either site.
My hope is that Obama can help both get past it.
Give it a bit, it's been three days since the election. I doubt that repayment idea will disappear.

Yeah, how dare he inform the public of what is actually happening in one of the most important transitions that can happen in government!
Whether or not it should be .gov is really a technicality IMHO. He is the president-elect, after all.
They did talk about it, actually. There was also a YouTube video, one of the "Blueprint for Change" series.

Yes, because clearly the entirety of the rest of the world are radical Muslims.
The rest of the world looks at people like you and sees intolerance and hate. What response do you expect?

Sorry, your entire argument hinges on so many assumptions that I can't give a real reply.
By which accounts?
You said yourself that he will increase taxes on "those" making over $250K, and then quoted a number on how many *households* make $250K.
You then make a jump to $500K for some reason when creating your numbers (seemingly snatched from midair).
And then you're suddenly suggesting that liberals equate additional spending with sending money overseas...?
Yeah, you've melted my brain. Congratulations.
I was making a joke. I likely would have voted Nader in 2004 were I American.

Exit polls.
0% of the votes counted but they already had a mass of data from asking people for whom they voted as they exited the polls.
Exit polls, good sir, exit polls. They have 19% of the precincts actually reporting numbers, but they can get a much better idea by asking people as they exit the polls.
If I had mod points, I'd totally mod the parent flamebait just to spite him.

No problem. That's what the Parent button is for.
Ha! Not this time, Nader!
Barack Obama's stance on just about everything. I hear this argument a lot that he's just saying "change" without any concrete ideas for how to do so, but it's simply incorrect. The campaign's series of YouTube videos starting with "Blueprint for Change" also details what he'll actually do as president: You can watch the Obama campaign's videos here.

Or maybe you shouldn't be using a dead person's hypothetical opinions to promote your own agenda.
Border patrol using this on all laptops in 3... 2... 1...
