Wait, are you thinking that people are considering Obama based on his stance on issues?
Even if anyone knew what they were, most of the voters are like, "should I vote for the black guy or the woman? It's a good thing I'm not a black woman or I wouldn't know who to vote for!"
Listening to the local alternative radio station, expecting the typical anti-conservative lies. But, Oh My God, one (female) DJ was going on like "I don't know whether to vote for the african-american or the woman. Can you imagine the difficult choice if I was a black woman!"
Uh, maybe the Leader of the Free World should be chosen by their stance on the issues instead of whether they are black or female?
That's a good question. I couldn't understand why the Democratic voters re-elected Rep Jefferson after he was caught with $90k cold cash in his freezer by the FBI.
Of course, only the Republicans are corrupt which is why they should always resign whereas Democrats should stay in office.
What will it take? As a start, how about voting the bastards out? Oh, unless they are a Democrat that were caught with $90k in their freezer, then vote them back in.
What is really strange about the so-called rebellion of Washington State, is that they also passed a law to allow an enhanced driver's license to be issued. Dependent on approval by Homeland Security, it will have an RFID chip and other additional information that will allow people to use it instead of a passport to cross the border with Canada. It will not be required for everyone, only the people that want to pay an additional $40 and use it in lieu of a passport. (Cheaper than a passport.)
So, Washington State's "rebellion" has more to do with an unfunded mandate, not privacy concerns.
What's wrong with bombing civilians? How do you think we won WW2?
It wasn't the atom bombs that caused the Japanese to surrender, it was our napalming their cities.
In Germany, we would bomb the cities, and then send another wave as the ambulances and fire crews were mobilized.
You can't win a war without demoralizing the enemy and removing their support.
Same thing as our conflict in Iraq. We aren't being beaten militarily. They have won the public relations war and convinced the mass media and the Democrats in power to surrender. That's the only way they can beat us.
"Nice try, but it is a violation of federal law to bring a fire-arm onto public school property. (The one exception being Police Officers in the course of their official Duties)"
Not true. My state allows a licensed concealed weapon holder to do so.
We have this core law against murder. It doesn't matter whether you use a gun, knive, car or a rock, it is against the law to kill someone.
He decided to violate that law. It doesn't matter *how* he decided to kill those people; the fact is, the other students were not allowed to carry a gun to protect themselves.
So, this shows that gun control only endangers the law-abiding.
Ah, this explains why there is such a high rate of gun crime in Switzerland, where every male between the ages of 20 and 42 must be enrolled in the National Guard and keep a military rifle and handgun in their homes.
It isn't vigilantism. It is about self-defense. If one of the murdered was allowed to carry a weapon to protect themselves, they surely would have known who to shoot. Anyone that has a carry permit is well aware of their legal rights and liabilities. Even when you are in the right, you are likely to go bankrupt due to legal fees. Permit holders do not shoot without being sure of their target.
I must not be using my rifles and handguns correctly, since I have not maimed nor killed anyone with them.
The facts: 1) Guns are not allowed on campus. It doesn't matter if you have a concealed carry permit from the state. (And, in fact a bill was just shot down that would have allowed permit holders to exercise their freedom.) This shows how well gun-control works when the criminal ignores the law. (Killing people is also against the law, but that didn't stop him.)
2) All of the mass killings in this country have occurred in places that had strict control.
3) The death toll at the University of Texas would have been much higher, except that some students pulled out their deer rifles from their trunks and kept the murderer pinned down. This is another case where guns saved lives.
4) There are many ways to kill people without using guns. Fertilizer, for example.
5) I don't have a problem with idiots walking around with guns. It is still illegal to shoot someone. And, there are many more idiots driving around with multi-ton vehicles which can do much more damage. Compare shooting deaths to highway deaths some time. And imagine what some twisted creep could do to a bunch of pedestrians, say at a street fair, with a pinned throttle.
Indiscriminately? You guys are on crack. Klinton fired them all just because they had been appointed by the previous Bush Administration. This is the ultimate hypocrisy of the Democrats. Bleat about how divisive the other side is, when every action you take is intended to foster more divisiveness.
Instead of commending the current Bush Administration for maintaining Klinton appointees based on their job performance and not their politics, you people have to whine about a handful of people that were fired for performance. And if you followed the Washington state gubernatorial election, you would have seen blatant voter fraud that allowed a Democrat to be made Governor although she lost 2 out of 3 vote counts. This clearly was a case of incompetence that required a firing.
And inferring that this had anything to do with current investigations is idiotic. How stupid can you people be.
All of the Democratic candidates are anti-2nd Amendment. The Brady Bunch is already gleeful about having a Democratic Congress and with a Democratic President will definitely attack the 2nd Amendment. Starting with guns that look scary.
I understand how you feel about the Republicans, but the problem was due to one party controlling everything. Even Conservatives like myself were not happy with their performance. I now believe we need to have different parties control the Congress and Administration. The absolute worst case would be to have the Democrats control everything.
Obama may have screwed up by aligning himself with Lincoln. A lot of Southern Democrats are still pissed off about the War of Northern Aggression.
Don't be putting the blame on the President or anybody else. If you are so concerned then stop breeding, stop driving a petroleum vehicle and purchase everything locally. Just don't send people with guns to take my money (ie taxes). I haven't bought into your hysteria yet so don't force your views on me.
I was looking forward to this game. I have a Microsoft joystick and it worked poorly. After I ran the patch, it didn't work at all! The forums were full of complaints about joysticks and using a keyboard/mouse sucked. WTF good is a flight sim that doesn't support a joystick, especially a Microsoft one?!!!
This is the first time I returned a game because it was defective like this. And it wasn't easy to return it, had to argue with the manager.
Did they even test it with a joystick? They must have figured it would be an easy port from the Xbox and never tried a joystick.
20-and-some million people disagrees with you and it doesn't avoid New York, hell, they live there.
It is almost impossible to get a license to carry a gun in NYC. So, obviously it must be perfectly safe to go anywhere there in the city since no one is allowed to carry guns.
Do you really feel impotent witout a gun? In the rest of the world we have dicks, we don't need guns to avoid feeling impotent.
Your dick must be impressive. If someone came at me with a gun or a knife, my dick wouldn't protect me.
I don't live in a world of fear. I know that I won't be helpless if someone with a knife/gun comes at me. I have confidence in my ability to protect myself. Most of the time I forget to bring a gun with me. I probably won't ever need it, but you never know what can happen...
And, before you think I'm just another cowboy, pulling that gun would be a last resort. Even if I'm legally in the right, my lawyer bills would bankrupt me. But it is better to be bankrupt than dead.
Take car as some kind of natural selection. There are accidents in US too, or do you avoid roads as well as NY.
I don't avoid roads, I even ride a motorcycle. When I'm in a car, however, I protect myself by wearing a seatbelt and on a motorcycle I wear a helmet. I probably won't ever need it, but you never know what can happen...
You are twice as likely to die in a traffic accident than we are to be killed with a gun. Gun-crimes do not worry us; we avoid the crime-ridden inner cities where most gun-crimes occur. And if we do go there, we can defend ourselves; we haven't been made impotent by our government and are not defenseless.
However, it is very difficult to avoid places where there are cars...
It's sickening how you people will promote your partisan politics when people are suffering. Just another excuse for Bush-Bashing. It gets rather tiresome. You guys lost the last two elections, get over it.
I suppose the Mayor has no responsibility in this? The fact that they ignored their 1000 page evacuation plans? Knew that there were thousands of people that have no way to leave, ignored their plans to use any available methods of transportation to move those people? Left them behind while legions of school buses remained in their lots to be covered by the flood? Required the sick and elderly to walk to the Dome and had insufficient food and water knowing that a Cat 5 hurricane was possible?
They knew full well how bad things could get. Instead of being prepared, they (and you) blame the Feds.
This shows how inefficent a bloated bureacracy is. And you want them to manage all of your health care?!! It is amazing to see how well private people, churches and disaster organizations have been helping.
Sure, there were mistakes made. But instead of promoting your partisan politics we should be working together to help these people.
Try reading the article: "wanted the prototype written in Visual Basic 5 (VB.5) in Microsoft Windows and the end-product designed to be portable across different Unix-based vote tabulation systems and to be "undetectable" to voters and election supervisors."

Washington state is a Blue state, we don't know what "Small Government" is. You can't blame the Republicans on this one.
BTW, how much taxes do you think we get when we sell Boeing airplanes?
Enemy combatants that are not wearing a uniform are considered to be spies by the Geneva Convention. They should be shot on sight as they were in WW2.
A vacation in GITMO is more than they deserve.
That's a good question. I couldn't understand why the Democratic voters re-elected Rep Jefferson after he was caught with $90k cold cash in his freezer by the FBI.
Of course, only the Republicans are corrupt which is why they should always resign whereas Democrats should stay in office.
In most places, leaving your secretary to drown because you were driving drunk and didn't want to get caught is usually a crime.
What will it take? As a start, how about voting the bastards out? Oh, unless they are a Democrat that were caught with $90k in their freezer, then vote them back in.
That kind of testing occurs too. They have these hydraulics that flex the wing over a long period of time to simulate many flights.
I was in Avionics so I don't know all these kinds of details, but got to watch cool stuff like this.

Great! So you agree with Bush that China and India should not be left out of the emissions caps since it will not hurt their economy.
