    the problem is that people like you are so self deluded that you think you can drive after downing a few and expect the rest of us to suffer the consequences of your self serving attitude.

    So make them override it. kowtowing to them is hardly a right or respectable call.

    for most cases, the illegal's documentation is so bad than anyone with an IQ above room temperature can tell the difference. My sister in law worked for awhile at a company that employed illegals. When the inkjet printing on their Social Security cards are already running, it's pretty easy to spot the fake. she quit shortly thereafter.

    While that may seem like a valid excuse for the pseudo capitalist running around in this country, all that means is that the wages being offered are too low for the work. After all, supply and demand works for products and labor. Unfortunately, most businesses think that capitalism is only good then it helps them and not the other way around.

    Enforcing the laws against the employer is not profitable (for the employer and the people they own). Blaming the aliens themselves provides not only a convenient scapegoat but helps to pander to the more bigoted parts of the politicians base of support. Keeping it possible to hire illegals is also good for business, as they can be underpaid, overworked and won't report any health and safety violations.

    Unless the argument is, in fact, silly. Otherwise your friends would be clogging up the courtrooms with equally silly arguments in order to be as big a pain in the ass as humanly possible.

    Just out of curiosity, how are you able to watch fox news when you are not in America? You certainly seem to have their particular line of corporate whoring down pat.

    Unless the money goes towards helping your rich friends ship jobs overseas and kill them furiners in order to take their resources, right?

    Actually, the republicans just chose to cut funding for tsunami monitoring, probably to pay for new paint job subsidies on corporate Learjets.

    What's really funny about your spewing is that you are actually ignorant enough to consider yourself one of the rest of us and not a simple minded idiot that you ridicule.

    Nothing like a false dichotomy to try to hide the fact that you are nothing but a cowardly bigot. why don't you go hide in the corner while the adults try to fix the mess you've created.

    Doctors have been going to movies many years before cell phones were even invented. I think you need to come up with a better excuse.

    and that's why I'm concerned. I don't plan on being a data hog by any means, but if they limit me to 40 meg a month or some other foolishness then why bother. Their terms of service are as clear as mud.

  16. Re:Google Voice and TextFree on Facebook May Bust Up the SMS Profit Cartel · · Score: 1

    I've toyed with using virgin's 25$ a month but I don't trust the wording on the contract. Just how "unlimited" are things like web browsing and the like. Now that they have non contract Android phones for under 150$, it almost sounds too good to be true, which means to me that it probably is.

  17. Oh, please.. on The Encroachment of Fact-Free Science · · Score: 1

    The only reason you keep your "facts" to yourself is that you know that the competent people here will be able to poke so many holes through them as to render them a joke. 2 + 2 = 4. That everyone (except perhaps you and the other paste eaters) accepts that as truth. this is not groupthink it is a fact. Anyone (over the age of 8 or so) attempting to claim that 2 + 2 = 27 would be ridiculed as they should.

  18. Re:Another drive by hit piece on The Encroachment of Fact-Free Science · · Score: 1

    Free thinker is just another sophomoric attempt at wordplay for those who don't want to accept the truth but lack the moral backbone to simply admit it. If you want to dress goth, smoke clove cigarettes and pretend that you are somehow special that's your right, but don't pretend that the grownups have to give you any special attention.

    do you feel the same about the Holocaust? And if not, then how much time should be given to the alternative theories in order to provide balance against all of the people who actually know what they are talking about?

    Beyond that, a theory is falsifiable, meaning that it is possible to come up with an experiment that could be used to test the theory. Currently, string theory does not really have any tests that could be applied to it.

    The fact that you call fetuses babies shows why your claims are false. They are not babies and not amount of hand waving will change that fact. Just because you think that you opinions have the force of fact does not mean that they do, your insinuations that you are a reasonable person does not make this claim true, and just because you find the being lumped in with fellow "busy bodies" like creationists to be unflattering does not mean that the comparison is false.

    Funny how you conveniently omit how much of the money they earn. Unfortunately for you the rest of us know it's way more than the percentage they pay in taxes. that's probably why you are an anon coward. You want to whore for you masters but not enough to expose yourself to ridicule.
