So, if we become financially successful, and can afford to give our children a better education, you want to deny us that "In the interest of trying to give people some sembelance of an equal playing field?"
Huh? No one is saying anything remotely close to that. Maybe if you didn't build your arguments on false premises, you'd actually understand what "the ideologues" are trying to say. Enjoy your vote for Strawman '08.
The federal government really isn't the appropriate place to deal with any kind of primary educational policy.
It's called investing in our workforce to remain competitive in a global economy. I realize long-term planning isn't the Republican's forte; sorry we see things differently.
YOU, traveling in a 2000 kg car at 90 km/h, what if you hit someone?
Right, because there's no difference between a car being *driven* on a designated roadway, and debris uncontrollably headed in an unknown direction. Your critical-thinking skills are...lacking.
-- he's a talented Senator, but he's never actually run anything
Are you calling a presidential campaign some sort of easy task? It took skill and considerable leadership for Obama to compete and win against the Clinton political machine in the primary, especially in his ability to successfully navigate through the month-long, round-the-clock Reverend Wright BS. If Obama was weak on leadership, he would not be the Democratic Presidential nominee.
I don't get it! who cares? what will an employer do if they read your profile unless you post things you shouldn't any ways?!?! Where is the issue? do you privacy nuts also behave the same way in daily life? if so it's a surprise you have any friends at all
Instead of being an asshole, maybe you could take up reading as a hobby?. This isn't exactly unheard of news, but being a hostile and arrogant prick must feel good, eh?
Simple passwords? Heh. There are rainbow tables for common SSIDs plus all passphrases up to 12 characters. That means that your password of "n-#$-sdkj3[[" (which most people would not consider weak or simple) is cracked just as easily as your passphrase "rodentsoup11"
Wow, that sounds really effective against a 64-bit passphrase that only needs to be entered once per connecting device. What ever will I do?!?!?!?
The "Secret Question" system is completely worthless, and doesn't require any sort of "hack" to defeat; what does this have to do with whether it was Palin?
is storing copies on any laptops I deploy to executive management.
Anyone who stores local copies of these on their own computer and then get arrested/checked at customs can expect to be answering some very unpleasant questions.

I'm not the GP, and no I don't advocate privately run police forces. Just pointing out that we've already got a little slice of that experience, and it's troubling to see.
Powderly is not Tibetan, not a resident of China, a foreigner who traveled to China for the express purpose of making this protest, and achieved nothing in this protest. Powderly and his protest is nothing like Park's protest.

Women's gymnastics are more about grace and fluidity (like the tumbling passes and balance beam).
Now, if you'd rather prove me otherwise, how is women's gymnastics about strength?
The reason that they have such "grace and fluidity" is because of their strength. It takes considerable strength to move the way they do.
Well, it only looks tragically insecure, as is it well-known that for licensing rights reasons, TNG wasn't allowed to show the crew reading from their RSA SecurIDs. So truly, voice authenticated RSA isn't that unreasonable, is it?

Or, you know tell her that she should not be storing ANY data on her computer. ALL data is to be saved to the network shares for backup control and security. If she needs to access something on the road, use VPN.
Riiiiiiiiight. Because your solution works really well on airplanes, client-sites w/o internet access, or anywhere else where network access may not be available.
Good job on coming up with novel solutions to difficult problems. Are you in middle-management by chance?
The fact that he doesn't like gymnastics makes him sexist? That is hyper political correctness.
What are you even talking about? I was responding to your statement "The way I read it was as more of a "I know all you guys watch this stuff and care,..."
Problem is, the "way (you) read it" was incorrect, as your reading ignored the difference between using the word sport and "sport". Syntax matters, and when you ignore syntax, you end up responding to arguments people aren't even making.
So no, not liking gymnastics doesn't make the remark sexist. Calling it a non-"sport" that only women could care for made the remark sexist.
Must suck to live like that.
No, it must suck to be incapable of parsing simple sentences, immediately jumping to defensive and arbitrary "PC! PC!" stances, and responding to arguments that aren't even being made.

Where are you getting your numbers from? The Illinois Senate career of Barack Obama stretched from 1996 to 2004, when Barack Obama was elected to the United States Senate. Starting in 1993 and throughout his state senate career, Obama also taught constitutional law part-time at the University of Chicago Law School, as a Lecturer from 1992 to 1996 and as a Senior Lecturer from 1996-2004, when he was elected to the U.S. Senate.
Prior to that, Obama taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School for twelve years, as a Lecturer for four years (1992-1996), and as a Senior Lecturer for eight years (1996-2004)

He said, watch how I run my campaign -- you'll see my leadership skills in action. At the time, I wasn't sure what to make of his answer -- political campaigns are often very messy and chaotic, with a lot of turnover and flux; what conclusions could we possibly draw from one of those? Well, as any political expert will tell you, it turns out that the Obama campaign has been one of the best organized and executed presidential campaigns in memory. Even Obama's opponents concede that his campaign has been disciplined, methodical, and effective across the full spectrum of activities required to win -- and with a minimum of the negative campaigning and attack ads that normally characterize a race like this, and with almost no staff turnover. By almost any measure, the Obama campaign has simply out-executed both the Clinton and McCain campaigns. This speaks well to the Senator's ability to run a campaign, but speaks even more to his ability to recruit and manage a top-notch group of campaign professionals and volunteers -- another key leadership characteristic. When you compare this to the awe-inspiring discord, infighting, and staff turnover within both the Clinton and McCain campaigns up to this point -- well, let's just say it's a very interesting data point.

It's quotes like these that keep me coming back to /.

I disagree.
