By this logic the First Amendment does not apply to the states yet either
No, because a court case has decided that the First Amendment applies to the states by the Fourteenth. They technically have to say the same about the Second before it applies.
I don't think there are very many potential converts on Slashdot. Slashdot is mostly composed of people who have already made the switch, and trolls. But considering that I'm probably not even talking to a human, it doesn't really matter.
Deficit is worse than higher taxes. At least higher taxes don't affect the people who can't vote yet(or, at least, not as much--guess who's going to have to pay off the deficit?).
Name me one prominent person commonly called neocon who is a Jew, other than Wolfowitz. The person has to also be currently active in politics as well.
The political party that started it all was the Federalists circa 1800. The political party that started it on a large-scale level were the Whigs and (Jacksonian) Democrats of the 1830s. But the Lewinsky scandal was one of the biggest ones in the last decade or two, the Republicans were clearly the accusers there, and now the same thing is happening to them--specifically to a member of the House of Representatives who happened to have been there during the Lewinsky scandal.
"It's vile," said Rep. Mark Foley, R-West Palm Beach. "It's more sad than anything else, to see someone with such potential throw it all down the drain because of a sexual addiction."
Dunno whether I'm the first person to come up with it, but IMO this is the perfect rebuff to the certainly not untrue, but key-issue-avoiding statement that "Guns don't kill people. People kill people", in the way it's used by "right to bear arms" people. Symmetry is beautiful.
If someone replies "But people protect people with guns", you can grin and retort "Well, people kill people with guns".
I've seen videos from the debate in the House of Representatives on Clinton's impeachment. One of the Republicans I saw talked about the lying(and that one only tangentially talked about it and the rest of the speech was about setting an example for children) and all the rest talked about the sex part. Although the lying was the more important issue in the scandal, it wasn't the issue the Republicans in Congress fixated upon. Hence, "karmic retribution".
I think that for the writers it most likely is the "principle" of the thing rather than the probably minimal residuals from what is nothing more than scraps of storyline.
From what I can tell, it's the principle, and the precedent. If they don't get the (minimal) residuals now, they might not get the (much higher) residuals later for other things.
I don't think they intend the occupation of New Caprica to be like Iraq, with the Cylons as the US. If you see that parallel, perhaps it is more in you than in the show.
The human resistance is called the insurgency and one of Tigh's tactics is the most famous tactic used by the terrorists. The parallels aren't exact but there is a clear resemblance.

The 2nd doesn't apply to the states yet. You want it to apply? Go to court, get a case up to the Supreme Court.
It's not real latin. It's parts of words from one of Cicero's works though.
Nah, the Magratheans are just sleeping.

The XBox 360 already has less than Sony's. The PS2 is still selling better than the 360.

Have you actually read Shakespeare? It's pretty much on the same maturity level as the stereotypical 16-year-old gamer.
It started when Debian Sarge was released. From here on out, the fabric of the universe is faling apart.
