Well thank God the people that actually make those decisions don't agree with you. Actually, the people with authority to make that decision - congress - do agree with him. However, bureaucrats in charge of Thousands Standing Around are imagining they have more power than they do (like that's rare for paper-pushing desk jockeys) witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Planes don't bother me. I'm scared of the mass shipping ports and all those metal cargo containers going through them. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Tuna, your life is already in the pilot's hands when you fly. Personally, I'd feel better if every cop (off duty and official business) were allowed to carry onto planes. Plus the pilots. Plus the FAMs (if they ever get enough to put them on flights regularly). Hell, sonebody asked my why I should trust select groups over everyone with a CCW (CHL, PP, whatever), and you know what? I didn't have a good answer. Maybe we should let granny carry onboard if she wants to and has a card. She probably wouldn't be knitting though. The idjits in red coats won't let you bring the needle things into the terminal. ps - all that comes after installing some serious doors from cabin to cockpits. pps - I don't really expect anyone to try another 9/11 style hijacking attempt. Really, wouldn't every guy on that plane be tackling the scumbag and beating the shit out of him? Just not going to happen again. Time to look for places it hasn't happened. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

So CIA asked SecDef to have the military keep a terrorist in Iraq. CIA shouldn't have, and SecDef probably should've said no, but that's another issue. Do these writers just think everybody qualifies as a prisoner of war? For shit's sake, POW status doesn't freaking apply to every asshole with a bomb. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

That's why we should allow pilots to carry, and give them a real door. Let the door protect the pilots, and the pilots protect the plane. Then, if it really comes down to it, let the fighters protect the rest of us from the plane. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Not really. Alabama will go to Bush, no questions asked, just like Jersey will go to Kerry. It's one of those things not up for debate. Since I would vote for Bush if limited to the big two, I'm ok with making a statement instead, and voting for who I actually want in the whitehouse. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Of course, if I were to post who should win, I'd have to tell you about Michael Badnarik. I can tell you why in just one sentence: He is the Libertarian condidate. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

You want no rhetoric, but you want people to say why one should win? my answer: Bush; close in popular votes, but winning electorals by more than against Gore - Kerry won't get the swing states. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Time is a fallacy based on human perception. there is no river of time, or flow of time, or time travel. Time is a name we give something that doesn't exist. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

(A) do you have a link for that review? (B) not seeing it in theaters is exercising my first amendment rights, not having them abrogated (C) when you send your kids into the military for the opportunities, there's a chance they will die. I haven't seen anything on that segment other than your posted review, but so far I'm not feeling any worse for her than any other parent who lost a child to death in the service. actually, I think I'm feeling elss for her right now. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Touche. Republicans have done it as well. My point was that racial pandering is, was, and will be a specialty of Democrats. Then again, since the two parties are two sides of the same coin, of course the Republicans are picking up on it. Equally capable, yes. Equally culpable, no. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Maybe somebody should tell that jackass there is no swastika on the confederate flag. I stopped reading about the fifth paragraph when he said republicans relied on racial division to get votes. I'm sorry, I thought special priviledge was a Democrat's specialty: affirmative action, "I feel your pain" speeches," etc etc. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

oh heaven's sake, is that horrible substance on the loose again?

In a formal setting, yes. Just like retired military officers are called by their ranks in formal settings. Hell, in a formal setting, senators and judges should be referred to as 'the honorable' so-and-so, regardless of how honorable they are. ps - they are not senior and junior. there is no "Herbert" in the current presiden'ts name, as far as I know witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Yet more proof that the judges of the Ninth Circus are an activist court and will remain the most overturned court in the system. Bill, are they requiring everyone to suddenly declare one religion? Are they requiring everyone to recite the pledge? So what are they "establishing?" That ten to twenty percent are not the majority but still have rights? Sounds about right to me. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

I've generally associated that cop out with kallend, not you Andy. (please go easy on godwin's law, I just happen to have studied that example more than most others) Nazis sent juden und untermensch to concentration camps. That law "was applied precisely as it was intended to be," as well. Does that mean we should pretend it doesn't exist, even though it relates to problems our own country is facing? (I could also use Rhodesian intolerance based on race and religion, or Chinese lack of human rights, or a dozen others - I chose that topic because I can debate it more readily) ps - yes, I see hate crime legislation as a problem, and I am referring to the USA as our own country, though I don't know your citizenship. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

A committee was formed to reduce government waste in spending. It found $60 million in waste, and that waste was eliminated. The committee was touted as a huge success. Then the cost of the committee was made public. The committee cost $300 million to set up and run.
