The CIA only sends me signals through my tinfoil hat, dude.

Soooo...Muslims eschew usury...but, apparently, reaching into deep corporate pockets is A-Otay with ol' Allah...

Let's hope they stay halal and not collect any interest on unpaid judgement funds...

I'm shocked, grove, that you have distorted my intention.
There's a difference between being an aggressor and defending ones' self from the same. Gun control is in the mind of who has the finger on the trigger.
Good or bad, no legislation will ever regulate it.

Well said. This is why guns need to be restricted. Not because criminals can still get them, but that we have too many GOP idiots toting guns...

Having been stalked by a GOP woman totin' a gun...I know.

Hopefully, she knows from not being disarmed and pistolwhipped dizzy as she merited that I'm a real damn gentleman.

Glad I didn't...she's damn dizzy enough already...

One failed shoe bomb, and we all have to take our shoes off at the airport.

Thirty-five school shootings after Columbine, and still not a damn thing done about gun regulation...

This is why the GOP is being marginalized...Fittingly.

Thanks for your response, dzog.

Brilliant. An economic illiterate. I will say one thing, your ignorance on such a wide range of subject-matter is certainly awe-inspiring.

Actually, corporations losing their personhood and political power is the new economic literacy...which you are woefully illiterate in, may I add...

To Hands On Athens, and every hammer in ATown:

Time to have us a church raisin'!

We can rebuild this church. Yes, we can.

This is a shout out to Mr. Liverman and the other guys who run Hands On Athens; and to every swingin' hammer in ATown:

Looks like it's time to have us a church raisin'.

Let's make this happen. We can rebuild this church. Yes, we can.

I was a little puzzled by the wording of the statement in the article. "Value of tax breaks enjoyed by corporations in 2011, as measured by the Government Accountability Office: $181 billion."
Do tax breaks include normal business expenses like labor and depreciation, or extraordinary tax breaks only given to some industries and not others? Statements like that taken out of the context of the report are often misleading
[/quote]

Corporate welfare includes ANY tax break a corporation gets that an individual does not.

Would you as an individual just loooooooove to deduct depreciation on your personal vehicles and residence? Sure you would...

Strip away corporate personhood now. Outlaw corporate lobbying. Make all campaign financing public funds only.

Or the above crap will continue...

Want to know what the Left is really afraid of?

The damn unavoidable fact that gun sales have gone through the roof since Obama got re-elected, and it ain't Progressives buying the guns...

Has it occurred to Conservatives that their buying up all the inventory of the Civilian Marksmanship Program...for the first time in the history of that quasi-Federal agency...right after the re-election...not to mention creating record AR-15 sales,,,may have put Congress and the White House on the gun control thing...aside from Newtown? Hmmmm?

No, what Maher was saying is that the way the GOP right interprets the Second Amendment is [filtered word].

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free state..."

Pretty straight up, there.

@Man_Of_The_Mountain: I have six Merle Haggard 33s. Merle is a country music guru. Love some Merle.

I always wanted Merle and Charley Pride to do a duet together...

Good grief! Where are these women?! They must be outside my realm of aquaintences because I just don't know women like this. Or maybe I do but they are different around men or in their personal relationships. Maybe there is something about men that sets women off, something men can't or won't be aware of. Like ptmmac wrote above, "The problem is we build a self image that is at odds with what we actually do and get into all kinds of problems as a result." Food for thought, don't you think?
[/quote]

No, I just think I'm the sort of man that sends women into a murderous rage...I refuse to take any BS off women....Really pees them off...

@davidxto: And remember, with the Japanese, it took two atomic bombs, not just one, to bring them to surrender...Nope, not the flowery origami cultural vibe they put out today...

Best concert I have seen since Van Halen on their Hide Your Sheep Tour, which I saw on 14 July 82 in Augusta...

However, this is the best concert I have seen since, basically, partying was made illegal and kids had to start wearing helmets for everything....

No.

Keep this one out of the hands of the patent shysters.

Especially this genome.

The male nature is arrogant and selfish. Also violent and agressive. Those males who supress their primal natures successfully escape my condemnation. Those who don't, cause the world so much misery and grief. Unfortunately, the latter are far more numerous.
[/quote]

I donno. Having been ambushed, slapped, punched, scratched, shot, run over, and had electrocution attempted upon me by educated and accomplished women...with me never attacking them...I think women have that arrogant, selfish, violent, and aggressive thing quite down pat...

[quote][b]gman129[/b] - BTW, I remember when Johnny Cash was considered rock and roll.
[/quote]

Amen to that. RIP, Johnny.

This concert was a fun one, though.

I foresee Luke Bryan selling a lot more music than Aldean...though all the artists were fine country rock artists. Way fun time.

It's government. EEO applies. The bosses get them in their vehicles also, or they and the City Council get sued by the workers. Simple.

This is why there are personnel regulations...to stop bosses from acting weird.

The National Review is quatsch.

If Chelsea acts like the pusillanimous butt kisser of plutocrats that her father has been, she may expect Progressives to politically mow her...

The Clintonian era of the Democrats being Republican lite has ended.

Chelsea must keep this firmly in mind if she enters the arena...

I certainly do. Conservatives are not just wrong, they are evil. Same song, different verse. Is it any wonder that the Progressive mindset is responsible for over 100 million murders in the 20th century alone...we must rid ourselves of the evil in our midst? [/quote]

OK, first of all, abortion is NOT murder. The law says so.

You conservatives...you want to tote a gun to blow away anyone who interferes with your property or freedom...then stump moralistically about saving the fetuses...and stand there dumbfounded when such dysfunctionally obtuse values pertaining to human life are rejected at the polls by America...

Well, for as long as conservatives want to be foolish, they will continue to be politically marginalized...

[quote][b]jtsim[/b] - She did seem to be a leader. I wish we had someone like her. From what I understand about her she was not afraid to make the tough decisions and didn't worry if the people liked her or not. A true leader is not going to make many friends but they do have a way of getting things done.
[/quote]

She beat the powerless to enrich the powerful...That's not a leader; that's a damn brute.
