The federal government has real power. It can make laws, treaties and so on that the several states are required to abide by (within the bounds allowed in the Constitution). There isn't any weaseling out of it or leaving. Thus the government can speak for the US as a whole.
Wrong. The judiciary can overide and ignore laws and treaties negotiated and approved by the federal government. For an example see the Softwood Lumber dispute between Canada & the US.
No but I would like to go back to a time when Green peace actually told the truth. For example: for more thatn the last 20 years it has been illigal in Canada to harvest and trade in white woats. Yet every year we still see those same pictures of the cute little white coats on their anti-sealing propaganda no where do you see pictures of the seals that they actuall do harverst. I guess they are not cute enough.
Greenpeace is nothing but an organization of eco-terrorists trying to gain attention and money from the ignorant masses. To use their name and 'research' is oxymoronic at is best.
In a government statistical setting this name 'LizDicks' was sugested to identify the variable that counted the number of couples who had divorced and married each other several times. You probably have to be very old to get the joke.
I remember back when my son was about 5. He was watching TV one day when he got up and asked me, "Daddy why are there no commercials about boys"? I asked him what he ment and his reply was "There are lots of comercials about girls being whatever they want and being happy about how they look but none for boys.". After thinking about it for a while I realised that he was right.
I have been toying with the idea for a while. Not so much to have it wired into my brain but just connected via "bluetooth" or simillar method to a pocket recorder. Control would be by blinking. This would be the ultimate stealth camera. Battery life would probably suck though.
If I remember correctly there was a something similar in Germany. A cleaning company had a lot of workers who lived in an particular outlying town so the cleaning company got a passenger van to drive them back and forth. The local bus/train service then took them to court because of the lost business. I cannot remember how it all ended up but I seem to think that the cleaning company lost. (They got "taken to the cleaners" so to speak.)
It has been done. I believe there is a Internet company already that you can hire that specializes in this sort of cash recovery. However, I don't seem to recall where I saw this. It too was reported as a scam.
Their next step will be to have the libraries and books stores not only maintain the lists of books you take out but also the lists of books you take off the shelves to browse through.
"And that's a bad thing? Having a weak central government was the original intent. A weak government lacks the power to take your stuff or your liberty."
Really??
Patriot Act, Property confiscation laws....
The more I learn about the United States Govenment the more it seems that aside from being able to blow the world off the face of the universe it has very little real power.
I knew they would fchk it up. There is no way that Pavel Chekov would be anywhere near old enough to be interacting with them let alone be part of a star ship crew. Unless of course the reinstitued the Royal Navy practice of employing boy seaman.
You mean to tell me that Mr. Laton is not picking items out of the other two leaders pasts and using them out of context and applying inuendo in order to discredit them. I sugest that you watch a few of the NDP ads and liten ot his retoric.
Is that not how politics works in this day and age. After all is that not what he himself is doing with regard to the Conservitive and Liberal parties and their leaders?
Yes you have to admire a man who lives in govenment supported low income housing while he and his wife have a combined income of over $100,000 dollars a year.
Ignore the email. If you really have a problem the bank will freeze your account and phone you to come into the nearest branch and deal with the problem there.

Why would any one really want to, step into US teritory that is.
What is being off by a few percent when dealing with space stuff. I mean what could possibly go wrong.
1938 War of the Worlds radio broadcast. Almost 50 years to the date. Same reaction from the tough Texan crowd.

It does not matter the United States does not honor its international treaties any way. For example NAFTA, child labor and child combatant treaties.

And 40 million Americans have no healthcare, so what.

Hell, it was started by scamers, they wore three piece suits but they were still scammers.
My wife says that I cannot have one.......
