I'm on board with this.

Hillary Clinton - 3.5 years (Go big or go home.)

Is there a bonus for calling all of the state races correctly?

the Senate by Harry Ried's direction has not passed a budget or even brought one to the floor for a vote for 4 years. which is a violation of the Constitution and is ILLEGAL , and you think they are doing their job :shock: First of all... The Senate under Harry Reid's direction has not passed a ...

“You claim to be sitting on a mountain of obvious evidence” More BS, I’m done. So you didn't say, "There are many credible independent sources that are in conflict with the government’s numbers"? No, you did say that , but you apparently don't want to provide or are incapable of providing those sour ...

Heaven forbid, someone make you put effort into articulating and defending your position. I am old enough to remember the government telling everyone that nuclear power will be so cheap, there will be no need to meter the usage. Show me the estimates and the real numbers. Bear in mind, as you do ...

I’m sure all government agencies are qualified to tell people what they want to hear. Yeah, that's kind of the vapid, baseless response that I expected. Surely, for all the organizations stating that the ACA will sink the economy, you can find one that has found a plausible scenario, in which the A ...

Someone should "fact check" the name of the law.... Okay. In addition, HHS believes that by adding competition to state markets, CO-OPs have the potential to promote efficiency, reduce premiums and/or premium growth , and improve service and benefits to enrollees. HHS notes that by their nature ...

and since the Obama care bill originated in the Senate. does that make it an illegal bill constitutionally? First, I'm going to entertain this as hypothetically correct. As this would be a violation of the power of the House of Representatives, it would have to be the House of Representatives ...

If you want civil discussion then give civil discussion. too bad it's always the others guys fault and not your own. we are all for change as long as it's the other guy that does it. Cuda, the issue isn't civility. Nowhere did Roid, Top Gun, or myself say that E&C lacks civility. Where Roid and Top ...

I expect said values and partisanship to have rational, well-reasoned explanations to back them up, yes. There are many people in this world whose politics I disagree with yet can have worthwhile discussions with, but I don't count most of you here among them. Those days have long since passed. i ...

Sure. The next time I use a side-street to bypass a traffic jam, I'll be sure to cast scorn at myself for bullying myself off the highway.

I would disagree in this particular case, but if you don't mind funding long walks in the park and caviar lunches then why should I? So are we grinding gears into a discussion about Congressional compensation now, or does this somehow relate to the Constitutionality of Congress forming a committee ...

Every lawyer I know would disagree.

well unfortunately the "Plan B" is not a sure thing either. just because the super committee either doesn't come up with a plan OR the plan is rejected is no Guarantee that the mandated cuts will take effect. for those cuts to happen, you need to have one of the Washington Bureaucrats recommend ...

BlueFlames

Congress has already approved the consequence that they face, should they reject the super-committee's recommendations. I don't fully understand it, but this part seems out of place to me. It seems to me that congress should only be voting and deciding on issues and consequences that take effect ...

BlueFlames

The President and Congress are committing treason with their 'super-committee.' Please tell me I'm not the only one who sees this. >_< Based on what I've read, Congress authorized the creation of a committee to make deficit-reduction recommendations. The bill authorizing the creation of this ...

BlueFlames

Okay, nobody else has had anything else to say about it.... At 11% approval rating for congress I expect a lot of incumbents to be given the bums rush. National approval ratings for Congress do not equate at all to local/state-level election results. Sub-25% approval ratings for Congress are nothing ...

Liberals will never accept the fact that everyone doesn’t think just like they do, they don’t understand why, and therefore to protect their egos, anyone who disagrees with them, must be defective in some way. More correctly, political partisans cannot accept the fact that others don't think the sam ...

First: Don't tell anyone your GF's name is George.
Second: Tell your dad he can keep your old GF, because you don't want anything that's had his meat in it.
Third: Go round to town, after dark, and buy yourself a new GF.

Wait, where was this going again?

BlueFlames

Can't help much on this subject, but.... Lastly, for now, does anyone have any concept of how the additional 6 dimensions may be defined? Pressure, potential energy? You can't really try to think of additional spacial dimensions (beyond length, width, and depth) as other physical quantities. There ...

If we'd waited too long, there wouldn't have been enough political will to go anywhere. I think Bush realized that we had a unique opportunity to actually do something productive in the middle east, and seized it while most others would've been pontificating about \"better\" options and letting the ...

BlueFlames

Bush argued a much better case than he is given credit for, but his case was badly misrepresented by virtually everyone (especially anti-war types.) I think his vision was solid -- replace a tyrant with a representative government in the heart of the middle east, prove that it can be done, and ...

I just checked, it is locked. Not sure what happened there. It's because you can destroy the reactor from outside the red door. You need to block the player's line of sight to the reactor to force him into the room. That said, cruising through the level during the exit sequence is a really cool ...

[/lurk] I just finished \"Roundabout,\" and I must say, that's the most appropriate level title ever. The locked doors are a great simulation of the arcane right-of-way system, and even when you figure out which route to take, the matcens pump out some traffic to punish you for making progress ...

Try to remember, Bush is not running for president, McCain is, and he is no slouch when it comes to advocating science and technology. He also vocally advocates an across-the-board spending freeze, indicating that, at best, federally-funded science programs would be left to cope with inflation ...

Suncho's just being a complaint whore again... Now that PXO is down, he's got to find something that he thinks is bad, make sure everyone disagrees with him, and then start a righteous crusade against that something. He's kind of like Ralph Nader in that way. ;) So, yeah, the nitpicky polls are ...

Well, if you don't like the Longhorn default skin , there's always the Classic theme in Windows Wootacular Edition . Of course, nobody would fake a screenshot of a beta OS to run up hits on their website. On the other hand, if they're still crunching code, I don't think that anyone at Microsoft yet ...

Vin Deisel's a decent actor. Good enough for action movies anyway. Plus, he scores nerd points for being a D&D player.

I'm not a big coffee person myself... On late nights, when I'm digging through a mountain of Modern Physics homework, I have been known to go through an entire box of Pop Tarts though. Nothing quite like a raw sugar buzz at 4:00am to get you through that last problem. I got a few laughs out of my ...

dedicated servers should only ban... Not your server, not your money, not your rules. Server ops can ban whoever they like because they spent the money assembling and maintaining the box, and they're paying for the bandwidth you're using. You can either play by their rules or get used to being ...

With the disasters that were Episodes I and II, I'm shocked that Lucas sprung the cash to bring back James Earl Jones' voice... I expected him to try to get Hayden fake it to further bastardize the Star Wars line. Sad thing is, I know it will be a train wreck of a movie, but I'll end up spending $8 ...

Ohio's secretary of state said that if the margin of victory was by less votes than there are provisional ballots, then those ballots would be counted.

Good bye, election results... See you in two weeks, assuming you aren't acosted by bands of roaming lawyers.

Kerry wants two more active divisions in the Army, and Bush has his eye on Iran... Oh, and recruitment rates have sagged since going to war in Iraq. There aren't two divisions just lying around, and the military is too tapped already to [successfully] invade another nation, so where are the troops ...
