    Go drill in Ogoni country. The natives will surely give your anti-renewable message a warm welcome. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

    If I'm using your 'standards', yes. Thanks for reminding me why I try to avoid posting responses to you. It's a total waste of time and energy. Enjoy your day. I quit years ago and have been scrolling past his posts since. It has made the SP experience more enjoyable.

    Crap, I just typed up a longer response but lost it when safari unexpectedly quit.. These two links should give you an idea regarding lobbying and harshness of nonviolent drug penalties. http://reason.com/archives/2012/04/22/4-industries-getting-rich-off-the-drug-w http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/dope/interviews/schlosser.html Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

    Which is why the private prison industry has a substantial lobby in DC against the legalization of cannabis. Ka-ching. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

    Source: http://www.cnn.com/2012/08/23/us/seal-identity-revealed/index.html Now, will these tools speak out against Fox News for this mishap, being that Fox created a much greater risk than Obama ever did?

    You just answered the OP's question right there. The broad use of fascism as a pejorative term is irrelevant as are the above 14 points referenced in the original post. Mussolini's definition was simple -- the meshing of corporation and state. It's happening not only in America, but all over the world. Here is one example in Northwestern Ireland where the police are protecting the interests of Royal Dutch Shell rather than the people who live there.

    Yup, it's about time republicans get used to having their own filthy tactics used against them. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

    From here: So, just so we're clear: 1. The Romneys have nothing to hide, even though they are hiding the tax filings being requested for disclosure, and 2. Though there is nothing to hide, the information on those those tax filings would "give democrats more ammunition." Even though there is nothing to hide. Silly for me to think that if there were nothing to hide they would release the filings, and that if there were no damning information on those filings, the democrats would have no ammunition, and would in fact look quite foolish (big points for Romney). I hope the Obama campaign continues to up the ante on Romney for these filings. Looking forward to either more desparate squirming or Romney scoring a big one by showing us the documents and putting the issue to rest (because as his wife says, there is nothing to hide).

    I see, so it is okay to belittle someone's service in Vietnam for political benefit a la 2004 swiftboating. These same people who supported those tactics (or at very least were silent about them) are now telling us that the President is using a dirty tactic for political gain. ***"As a citizen, it is my civic duty to tell the president to stop leaking information to the enemy," says Benjamin Smith, identified in the video as a former Navy SEAL. "It will get Americans killed." And now the commander in chief is a threat to national security because he gave soooo many details on how the military took down obl. The only thing sadder than the unfathomably stupid, childish and intellectually dishonest logic behind these tactics is the fact that this group garnered over $1M in backing. As normiss said on many occasions -- we are fucked. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

    Interesting, reminds me of this bizarre and fascinating story of Polish Neo-Nazis that discovered they are Jewish. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

    Agreed -- in my opinion these sanctions are far too lenient. More should be done to make an example and drive home the point that universities exist to educate, not to whore their massive stadiums, scoreboards and brands to "generate more revenue to allocate to academic research."

    Great choice -- a friend of mine showed me that solo for the first time just a couple of months ago. This is one of my favorites -- Hendrix's Axis: Bold As Love. 2:53 And then there's Funkadelic's Eddie Hazel in Houston 1979 Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

    Very interesting article. It explains quite a few things about an Egyptian woman I used to date years ago. She was beautiful...but man, she had so much cultural baggage it was sad, and it really held her back in a lot of ways.

    Do you work in the energy sector? I ask because I see you post these threads with the same theme repeatedly. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

    Your profession is showing. Just like British Petroleum professes to have cleaned up, eh. I don't buy their propoganda. Perhaps other peoples' biases incline them to do so. Yup -- and they did it for the same reasons as BP. Another energy giant getting big fat and lazy, cutting corners and assuming all is well in this part of the world and that one to maximize its profits that much more...and then look what happens. Now they're "performing heroics" cleaning up a mess that could have easily been prevented in the first place. How many more spills and cleanups shouldn't we forget? so, after the government declared gulf seafood as eatable did you drive down to the gulf and buy a basket of shrimp or other fishy products? I didn't, though I do trust the government to regulate fracking more than I trust the industry to self-regulate.

    I see, so Obama is to blame for eye-less shrimp, and not BP. Sounds like the republicans blaming the democrats for the mounting casualties in Iraq when that topic was discussed in 2005...or like BP washing their hands clean of blame for the mounting reports of sea life deformities in the Gulf.

    Well then, have you given thought to the notion that not every oilman out there is as responsible and ethical as you? Saying "let's get the really smart oilmen...and figure this out" isn't much different than a. the communists' flawed belief in the best of human nature, or b. the liberal elitists saying they know what's better for everybody. That, sir, is why regulations are necessary. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

    Oh do ya. Here's one from Airgump: Exxon wasn't doing that in 1989. I'll never forget Exxon Valdez, and I hope the generation after us doesn't either. THAT's what it took to get Exxon to the safety levels they're at now. Not a "commitment to safety" or "disciplined, smart", blah blah.
