    not really related. I bring it up because while it is a serious crime, I feel its being brought out now to try and make the government look better so they can say "well, yeah we fucked up but look he is bad!!!"

    yes, bush started the wars, and obama has made it even worse. would have been better off pulling out as soon as he got in instead of what we got now

    Its been 6 years, I think obama can start to take some of the blame now

    there is no such thing as free healthcare. someone is paying for it. just because it is not you, does not mean there is no cost

    Obamacre that inspired a huge backlash from the right was a conservative policy suggestion from the Heritage Foundation including all the most hated provision.

    This is not the entire truth and you know it. Of course the admin loves to point out a bit written by the right. but what you conveniently leave out, is that it was never intended to be countrywide. What is constitutional for the state is not always constitutional for the fed, - 10th amendment issue

    as for iraq (and the wars in general) more of our troops have died since obama took over than prior to that. the reasons why? I cant tell

    no, disagreeing with the president does in fact get one called a racist, for example, I am not happy that bush has not closed gitmo, I am mad he still harasses medical marijuana patients after saying he would not. I am mad that my health care costs almost double what I was paying 3 years ago, and my coverage is no wheres near as good as it was. Im mad that I could not keep my doctor. Im mad that the cost of gas is still over 3$ a gallon. Not all of these things are totally the presidents control, but also none of them are related to his race. sadly, if im not called a racist by obama supporters at least once aday, id be shocked as it never happens

    It also is not cool the way the government went after him. I mean he recently outted himself as a racist asshole, but we do need to remember the big picture here which IMO is more important than the fact that he is an asshole. Check out this article from wired I found today - http://www.wired.com/2014/10/u...

    Let me stop and mention here that last week weev caused a storm when he wrote a racist screed for a white supremacist website. As usual I found out about it when my twitter timeline lit up with exhortations to do something about my client, the unpopular defendant. To me his bigoted viewpoint is just noise; the crucial issue here is not weev or his ideas but the future of criminal computer law in the U.S. You may think weev is an asshole. But being an asshole is not a crime, and neither is obtaining unsecured information from publicly facing servers.

    Minor stuff like buying a new fridge.

    ok, and a new fridge (worth buying to replace the one i have) is around 800 bucks

    Buying a new car or SUV or truck.

    yeah that would be awesome, are you going to give me the money to do it? im already out the 800 bucks on a new fridge.

    Cutting your electricity bill by installing solar panels and passive solar when you buy a new house.

    so now im out 800 bucks on a fridge, tens of thousands of dollars on a new car and you want me to spend tens of thousands more on solar (or hundreds of thousands more on a new house???)

    Replacing burnt out incandescents with modern LEDs.

    replace 100 bulbs that cost pennies with bulbs that cost 10-20 bucks? after all the other stuff you made me do???

    Really easy to do.

    Yeah, if you are rich. not if you are the 95% of the rest of the population.....

    Common Core actually addresses some of these ideas in that they address principles of how to learn rather than just facts and figures learning. The system still needs tweaking though and not just because people are complaining about the problem.

    Have you actually looked at some common core math problems? have you talked to any common core math teachers??? common core is a disaster. 22+22 is no longer 44. its now 40 (plus 4) it takes an entire page of paper to do 1 simple subtraction problem at the 3rd grade level. Its not teaching our kids math, its teaching them close enough is good enough.

    Seriously this is good news that I honestly did not expect.
