It's a stop signal if conditions permit you to stop. If you blow through a yellow and a cop thinks you could have reasonably stopped, you can get ticketed.
My post was perfectly readable, and was the counter-anecdote to the original anecdote.
You, however, wanted to be a nonproductive commenter with a pedantic comment forwarded in an abrasive form.
Hence, bag of shit. In fact, your comment history matters not; "hey your honor, until I raped and murdered that hooker I went to lots of them without incident!"
Who gives a fuck? You wanted to be a pedantic shit in your response to me. Fine. I called it like I saw it, then you tried to get playful with your emoticon. Well, I ain't buying what you're selling. Also, fuck you.
Colorado isn't exactly a food mecca. [I] Ate at the Publican tonight in Chicago. . . at least two people brought nice cameras into the joint.
It happens a lot. (iPhone's "shift" is close to the A, hence the capitalized As)
Moto is has it even worse, as does any molecular gastronomy joint. To elaborate since I'm now at my computer, molecular gastronomy tends to get "tricky" with presentation. For example, there's a dish there called the X0563511 which is made of pork, but they shape it just like a fat cunt because that's what the shitbag who can't add jack to a conversation is like.
You know it, I know it. The current senate rules are that the Senate can inform the President they intend to filibuster, and that's that. Filibuster accomplished.
That's why the cloture vote is the equivalent of the filibuster vote now; stopping debate stops the filibuster. Period.
The rest of your post is blowing smoke. . . we're aware that there are Dems (Lincoln, Halter, Nelson, et al) that are breaking ranks to get pork/are really corporatists/just want to fuck up our days/whatever but the bottom line is the Reps are voting as a block, consistently.
The thing that really burns me up is it's a cynical ploy that amounts to this: "The country is fucked. If the dems can't govern, it will get worse, and then we'll be back in power again!"
And that's disgusting, more disgusting than a rep looking at porn.
It's a cute talking point I hear a lot. "Well they have to do it to prevent the evil dems from enacting policy and, you know, governing like they were elected to do!"
Problem is, it's wrong. Democrats weren't a minority party in the 90s until 95 (104th congress). Additionally, that Senate (since that's really where the bloc voting creates dysfunction and prevents governance) had a party line voting percentage of 80% for Dem, 88% for Rep. citation,
And let's not forget what we took up most of that congress with: impeachment.
I know you say you did, but you're either willfully misrepresenting them, a thundering moron, or a liar.
The whole "Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot" thing was tarring him with the same brush Rush uses every day.
Additionally, there's scads of refutations in Truth, Lying Liars, and Big Fat Idiot for multiple talking points, and outlines his own POV in an often humorous way.
Again, with lots of footnotes and cites pointing to where he derived his facts from.
But yeah, you go ahead pretending he calls people names for three books and can't have any political discourse.
Just a hint, re: discourse: I suspect the problem is you.
The health insurance companies, in their infancy, went after small businesses to sell policies. It was cherry-picking - if you're healthy enough to work, you probably don't need health insurance.
But way to think the government did it, and convince everyone you're not worth listening to about policy.
Anyone care to inform where the board went, or whether there are similar boards? It was the closest that you could get to a/. system, with the benefit of flat threads, lack of censhorship (negative moderation will kill initiative, and I don't mid sifting through crap if the total threads are expunged slowly and aren't more than 30 or so.) There were no "news for nerds," but that meant everything was code-related, and complete noobs were somehow filtered out.
As described on NPR this morning. You need mandatory insurance, no pre-existing denials, and subsidies/public plan all at once.
That's a significant part of the reason why it's difficult to implement; you can't introduce it by incrementalism. It only works if it's all or nothing.
Machiavelli's instructive here:
“It must be considered that there is nothing more difficult to carry out, nor more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to handle, than to initiate a new order of things. For the reformer has enemies in all those who profit by the old order, and only lukewarm defenders in all those who would profit by the new order, this lukewarmness arising partly from fear of their adversaries, who have the laws in their favour; and partly from the incredulity of mankind, who do not truly believe in anything new until they have had actual experience of it. Thus it arises that on every opportunity for attacking the reformer, his opponents do so with the zeal of partisans, the others only defend him half-heartedly, so that between them he runs great danger."
Also, libertarians are *not* always socially liberal and fiscally conservative. They claim to be, but they almost universally favor corporate deregulation. That's anything but fiscally conservative; in many industries, every attempt at deregulation has consistently resulted in monopolies and higher costs in the long run. There are many industries where the most fiscally conservative position is actually socialism.... Health care, power production, telecommunications, and most other essential services fall squarely into that category.
It's a weird line to walk.
I initially responded with "yes, anything that's a public good" but how do you define a public good?
Insurance simply works better if everyone's involved with the same plan, mitigating risk collectively.
Education is great, as it results in a more flexible populace, and enables self-improvement.
Employment is great, because everyone should work for their food.
But telecommunications - it's sort of a public good but is it the government's job?
Education? Health care? (I lean towards yes on all three)
I think if they don't disallow competition, government solutions are fine. If they suck at it, then businesses can compete with them on service/cost and make a living.
Socialism with a twist I guess.
I'd consider 400 years enough of turn the other cheek.
You should maybe look up what that line is in context, as it's Jesus saying "turn and offer the other cheek when struck on one", not some "lie in wait until NOBODY expects our revenge!"
American's coach is actually not TOO awful yet. I had to switch from United to American when United went to the Coach Premium pricing strategy, which I view as Tall Person Tax. (they shaved room off of seats in Coach to create a Coach with 4" more than their regular coach, which probably washes out to 2" more than American's Coach)
United non-Premium is awful at 6'1".
Southwest isn't too hot; as long as the person in front doesn't go hog-wild with their seat recline you're ok.

Grandparent poster was right.
It appears the answer is British Petroleum
posse.
But she passed a urinalysis AND a hair test? She's clean, just has poor judgment and is not very funny.
Which shouldn't preclude her from government work; she's almost overqualified!

You're still a fat cunt
Let me do it for you again:

Seriously, you don't know shit about cooking meat if you're not resting it.

The way I see it, propagandists should be first against the wall when the revolution comes.

But I won't buy an Ubisoft game. I really really want the Anno game and expansion. Didn't get them.
Same with any Ubisoft game at this point.
But way to think the government did it, and convince everyone you're not worth listening to about policy.

Thanks.
I'll second the Stack Overflow suggestion.
Due to AHK's quirkiness (limitations + my ignorance) I intermingle python/bash scripts with autohotkey.
My shitty tech blog posted something relevant to your interests.
Sean, is that you?

Not only did you completely miss the joke, but at least to moderators did as well. It's a honeypot, you don't want a deterrent like a dog post.
