You gotta watch those nasty little plankton, they put out a billion tons of CO2 a day. Lets tax them, and stop them from causing global warming, or is it global cooling now? I can't keep track of what they call it anymore... cooling... warming... whatever.
Ohhhh, Lord Rothschild, I want you to pass a carbon tax to end the CO2 that we exhale. No.? Just exterminate us all so that you can save the planet from us nasty CO2 exhalers.
Alex Jones has reported on this as well. As we all know, 9/11 was a "turn" for the worse in society. Another fake, "global" war to get the yuppies to submit to power, government lies, and propaganda. 9/11 was a false flag event, the same as the Gulf of Tonkin, which is now declassified, and has come out that Israel actually attacked the carrier.
What you will see, I would imagine is a false flag event, pulled off by those who are capable, and well paid, bring down the root servers. This has been demonstrated in the past, and is VERY possible, especially considering the recent DNS flaws that have spewed out in the media. They will come out, and say "Oh, we need Internet 2", and it will be totally censored. No porn. No free speech. And if you talk about a candidate, other than the 2 government run parties that are exactly the same, then you get unplugged. If you log on, without your DNA being uploaded, then they swat team you, and kill your family.
The way that criminal governments work, is problem, reaction, solution. They create a problem, judge the reaction, then pose as the saviors. Usually, they come up with a solution that will piss off a lot of people, and they do it to diminish freedom of speech, right to bear arms, freedom of religion... the list goes on, and on. One day, just one day, you will be sitting there, wondering where all of your freedom went, while you are a slave on a global corporate plantation.
VA Shootings? Governments love dis-armed peasants. It is quite amazing that the drugs that the guy was on was allowed by the FDA. Yeah, guns aren't allowed, but the drug the guy was on was. Gun Free Victim zones are the easiest target for someone doped up on Prozac.
In 1929 the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929 to 1953, approximately 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915-1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, 13 million Jews, gypsies, homosexuals, the mentally ill, and others, who were unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to 1981, 100,000 Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated. Uganda established gun control in 1970. From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Cambodia established gun control in 1956. From 1975 to 1977, one million "educated" people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
But NOOOO. This is America. It can't happen here. Nothing to see here, move along into your concentration camp.
Good. Let all the plants, algae, and plants die from lack of CO2. We can all choke to death after 10 years from the lack of oxygen. There are things you should not screw with, and nature is one of em.
Not everyone likes the same temperature. I like 70 degrees. My wife likes 75 degrees. I am quite sure that your neighbor might like a different adjustment. I may not like the temperature that he does. I won't adjust my house temp to save someone else energy. Sorry. Not gonna happen.
If people are worried about energy costs, then they may want to think about lobbying for a thermal, nuclear plant. Both are cheap, and cost effective.
This sounds like an attempt to further move the west coast into communism. With a Nazi as governer, I am not surprised.
I am a plaintiff of NCEL. NCEL was started by the "We The People Foundation". http://wethepeoplefoundation.org/. We are in the process of serving the papers to my state, and posting the video to the public. More will come soon.
It is imperative that we return to paper ballots, and they be counted in front of the public who voted. Machines are not to be trusted, especially when they are proprietary, created by a private company, and who's owner stated that "he is dedicated to helping the president get elected".

1. Telling this man to erase all his data, his OS, and all his software in order to load something that he doesn't want on his machine. 2. Telling this man to go against his principals, and what he believes in.
I wouldn't agree with you on either, and would advise you to help the man instead of telling him just 'go along' with the establishment store policies. That is one of the many reasons the UK has those Big Brother cameras down every street in London. You just "go along with it", and believe that the government will help you instead of you helping yourselves. Welcome to 1984, and This Perfect Day. Your type thinks that store and the government knows whats best for you, because you can't make that decision yourself.
They did this with the HTC 8125 claiming that in only had WiFi 802.11b, when in fact, the hardware was 802.11G. AT&T didn't want people to know that WM6 enabled G, so that they could sell the next generation model, which isn't that much more advanced.
As a nation, the US has made numerous commitments to the UN, and that includes agreements to follow things like the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. When we *agree* to follow International Law, we ought to, don't you think?
ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOT. I will NEVER allow someone outside my country tell me what I can, and cannot do unless they want to face my 2nd amendment rights in their face with my hand on the trigger. Thats why we have the 5th Amendment: "No person shall be denied life, liberty, or property without due process of law". We created the Constitution for a PURPOSE. If you don't know the constitution, then you need to learn it, and learn it NOW. The REASON that this country is so royally fucked is because world government favoring little imperialists have either forgotten, or either never LEARNED the constitution, what it means, how many people died for it, and what it means to be a patriot. A patriot's duty is to protect his country FROM his government. Ever watched the Patriot? Braveheart?
The Bill of Rights is getting stretched more thinly every day, and the anti-terrorist effort (though directed in part by well-meaning people) is cutting swaths in our Constitution.
Thats because little wimps sit on their butts and ALLOW it to happen. What ever happened to Thomas Jefferson, Martin Luther King, and Rosa Parks? Rosa Parks was a true hero because she KNEW that DEFIANCE was the ONLY option to push the sorry ass government we have in place into some common damn sense.
If you want to play the 'terrorist' card, I don't believe a damn word of it. Your damned president CREATED your 'terrorist' threat. He is not my president, I din't vote for him, and the election was rigged in the hands of Diebold machines, not the people. It is not who votes that counts... But who counts the votes.
If you are stupid enough to believe that 'jet fuel' bit, that supposedly brought down two of the largest towers in the world, then you need to go back to collage, and learn a few things about physics. And please explain to me the collapse of WTC7! Surely you aren't dumb enough to believe fire brought down an entire building when the building hardly had any fire in it at all.
The terrorist bit is simple bullshit. The only terrorists in this country are the ones sitting on their damn thrown in Washington DC, and NY at the CFR building. Government is not God. I listen to Alex Jones's show, I know what goes on in this world. I don't sit on my ass all day and watch Faux News, MSN-BC, and A-BC. Those media corps are controlled by 6 people. And you sit there, and honestly think that they are not government controlled? Look up Reichstag, and what Hitler did in WWII to play his own people into the demon of fear, and how he used it to enslave people into voting for him, THEN you look back to today, and look at what that sorry son of a bitch we have for president has done. You CAN NOT tell me they are different because you would be DEAD WRONG.

How hard is it, I mean really, to spell U.N.Constitutional? Why is it that people think that the U.N. is some kind of authority over American citizens?
I had to correct this because "Democracy is defined as 51 percent of the populous telling the other 49 percent what to do." - Thomas Jefferson
That is why we have a REPUBLIC. It should read "god help the future of our republic."
It was once stated that "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what is for dinner. Liberty is a well armed lamb contesting the vote." - Benjamin Franklin
'The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.'
I was looking for a version number after "Office".
First thing that came to mind was the M$ employees cowarding down while offering Ballmer in front of them for the cops which each have a Tony Robbins face ready to devour the over weight CEO while covered in Office XP CDs in an attempt to make him look more like a chocolate chip, IE cookie, and the cops have ads all over their kevlar jackets.
Running a comp repair shop I removed a Trojan that possibly came from the CIA. Breaking it down in HEX revealed that. It snooped IE cache, and was as easy to remove as running toolbarcop, then hijack this, then removing the binary manually. Dumped IE cache, then put the user on a cacheless firefox configuration. That fixed the problem.
Sounds illegal since we have this thing called fair use granted by the Supreme court. Not to mention that no one in their right mind would buy suck a broken product that only allowed a song to be played 3 times before you have to send off an extortion fee to a fortune 500 company, who made it's profits breaking anti-trust laws, and worming it's way through the Unconstitutional WTO.
Off topic Rant: HA indeed. Speaking of the WTO. The WTO has no authority over anyone in the states, and is not a part of the federal system either. The WTO is a self made wanna-be authority that is unconstitutional, therefore holds no authority over U.S. citizens. If an authority is not a part of the thee branches of government, or state. Therefore it holds no power.
Back to the point. How would such a device determine what song is 'copyrighted' and which one isn't? It sounds like a device that must have a dependence on some sort of hash, or tag, within the audio file itself. It must, otherwise, it couldn't tell what was copyrighted, and what isn't. It should be a matter of ripping the tag from the file before it enters the player at some point. How would it determine if it came from another country? If I download a song from Germany that is copyrighted, then there is no constitutional legal authority that tells me that I must pay some guy on the other side of the globe some fee in God only what knows type of money I don't use. I don't trade with Germany, so I don't have to comply with their laws, much less care.
If someone makes the "I have nothing to hide statement", I usually respond something to nature of, "Ok, why is your house not made of glass?", or "Then tear down your house, and re-build it with glass walls". That usually makes them angry.:) hehe.
Right, because lefties aren't influenced by money? Microsoft has billions of dollars in cash, more than enough to buy whatever politicians happen to be in power.
Corruption isn't just a conservative phenomenon. By the time you get to the White House, unless you end up there by mistake, you're already crooked. The process of getting there guarantees it. I'm sure Microsoft slathers its campaign contributions around so that no matter who wins, they owe Redmond a few favors.
The only reason any politician would ever break up Microsoft would be if they thought they could somehow capitalize on its demise, and I don't see any reason why that's possible. You don't win votes by torpedoing one of the crown jewels of the U.S. economy and its economic dominance, even if you're a leftist. There might be some saber-rattling, but it's not going to be anything serious.
Your faith in one batch of weasels over another is cute, but ultimately I think you're just setting yourself up for disappointment.
I see no reason to shell out over $200 for a platform when mine already has more 3D capabilities, has all the software that I need can be downloaded form a vast repository of free software, and runs perfect on my hardware without having to hunt for drivers, and disks. I switched from OS X Tiger to Ubuntu 7.04 last month. Bill can plead all he wants, but why put out all that money for software when I have everything I need for free.
Which is EXACTLY why we have the 2nd Amendment, and I carry my 2nd amendment on my belt. The Neo-Cons study this book like it's their bible or something.
ON THE ART OF WAR BY NICCOLO MACHIAVELLI CITIZEN AND SECRETARY OF FLORENCE
"Rome remained free four hundred years while armed: Sparta eight hundred: Many other Cities have been dis-armed, and have been free less than forty years; for Cities have need of arms, and if they do not have arms of their own, they hire them from foreigners, and the arms of foreigners more readily do harm to the public good than their own; for they are easier to corrupt, and a citizen who becomes powerful can more readily avail himself, and can also manage the people more readily as he has to oppress men who are disarmed.
In addition to this, a City ought to fear two enemies more than one. One which avails itself of foreigners immediately has to fear not only its citizens, but the foreigners that it enlists; and, remembering what I told you a short while ago of Francesco Sforza, (you will see that) that fear ought to exist. One which employs its own arms, has not other fear except of its own Citizens. But of all the reasons which can be given, I want this one to serve me, that no one ever established any Republic or Kingdom who did not think that it should be defended by those who lived there with arms: and if the Venetians had been as wise in this as in their other institutions, they would have created a new world Kingdom; but who so much more merit censure, because they had been the first who were armed by their founders. And not having dominion on land, they armed themselves on the sea, where they waged war with virtu, and with arms in hand enlarged their country."
So yes my Slashdot friends. If it weren't for guns, you would be worshiping King George. Governments love disarmed peasants.

But of all the reasons which can be given, I want this one to serve me, that no one ever established any Republic or Kingdom who did not think that it should be defended by those who lived there with arms: and if the Venetians had been as wise in this as in their other institutions, they would have created a new world Kingdom; but who so much more merit censure, because they had been the first who were armed by their founders. And not having dominion on land, they armed themselves on the sea, where they waged war with virtu, and with arms in hand enlarged their country."
So yes my Slashdot friends. If it weren't for guns, you would be worshiping King George. Governments love disarmed peasants.
Just one of many reasons that I will be voting for Ron Paul. McCain is not a Republican. He is a Neo-Con.
