Comment on RPB - Ron Paul Blimp (2009-03-30 15:03:36)
@Staplegun: Bingo. I sigh when I hear people bitching about Congress not working enough. Hell, if it were up to me, I'd keep their salary and only require them to work two weeks a year to balance a budget. Every day Congress meets, we lose more of our liberties.

@dieAntagonista: Interesting, I didn't think I called you a socialist at all. I called Kucinich a socialist, which is a label he doesn't try to run far from. And your interest in American politics is admirable, your confusion is also noted. Socialism is a sliding scale from full laissez-faire (the opposite) to full-on Hugo Chavez. There are degrees in the middle. Someone with a hint of socialism (such as George W. Bush with TARP) but still supports the free market overall would be foolish to call a socialist, but someone whose core principles are at odds with free market capitalism, such as Obama, would be much more apt to be called a socialist. If this is confusing, let me make it simpler - a better term for the modern day American "liberal" would be a statist, the belief that government is the be-all and end-all to our problems.

Slavery is abolished per the 13th Amendment, not 14th btw. @deuce: Who defines "minority"? The 14th Amendment and Civil Rights laws (which are statutory changes to the Constitution, rather than Amendments and would have left the founding fathers spinning) spell it out. Sorry, but sexual preference is not considered a minority. And if, in your opinion (or state, for that matter), it is, how is it discrimination by defining marriage as between a man and a woman? It is the very definition of marriage. Civil unions can be allowed side by side but calling for "gay marriage" is like calling for a "square wheel." And a true libertarian (of which I am not - I believe in moral order as defined by law) would likely believe that there should be no statute at a FEDERAL level banning or permitting gay "marriage." States should be free to allow or disallow such a certificate.

Cathy, Did they teach US History where you went to school? It most certainly is the United STATES of America, consisting of 50 separate states free to make their own laws based on how their residents vote. Remember, the reasoning was to promote competition between the states, so you can institute ridiculous liberal policies in states like New York and California, and pro-growth policies in states like Tennessee and Texas. Then, the people can vote with their feet for the policies they feel would advance their economic situation. Federal control of everything brings down EVERYONE when moronic policies like Obama's are instituted, and there's no escaping his taxation. And your idiotic example of "slavery" is spelled out in the Constitution itself, and thus not up to states to decide (see 14th Amendment).

I love how idiotic the Rupaul supporters were. YAH YAH GO RON PAUL REVOLUTION!! Then, when he drops out, they vote the polar opposite of his beliefs, Barack Obama. Yeah, going from the libertarian who votes against anything not specifically authorized to the Federal government to voting for the Messiah who has expanded the Federal government larger than any President has in the history of the republic. dieAntagonista is an even brighter example of this - only Kucinich was more of a rabid socialist than Obama was in the primaries. It's go to be something other than ideology, perhaps the voters just like to make a statement and don't really care what the candidates actually support.

Misspelled exaggerated. Both in the graphic and in wyrdstone's post.

Reading some of his headlines, he sounds like a moonbat piece of crap. So I guess it follows suit that you'd like him.

Regression! Please revert.
Comment on HTC Dream (2009-01-22 07:29:58)
This is the Touch Pro and I have it with Verizon. It is every bit as awesome as the picture shows. It'd be nice if VZW enabled GPS for all applications natively, but it's easily done with a hack found on ppcgeeks.com.
Comment on Florida - The Sunshine State (2009-01-19 23:25:06)
As a Jew Yorker, I'm dying to move to Florida. I've been there three times in the last three months, and going there again to tailgate for the Steelers.

Sampled these in Busch Gardens in Tampa. I definitely wanted to barf.

Glad I wasn't the only one, RSI.
Comment on Chris Matthews (2008-11-10 23:50:20)
Yes, Chris Matthews is a former aide to Democratic Speaker of the House Tip O'Neil and a former presidential speechwriter. Very much a democrat.

@reboot: Why are you a stupid piece of shit? Inquiring minds want to know.
