  1. So from the actual study: Clearly South Dakota is doing much better. There the top 25th percentile is barely above the 25th bottom percentile in Washington DC.
  2. while I agree, it is not the point Plame was never outed But the politics will not let the truth happen Funny how you post that in a thread you started, where you are trying to use politics to alter the truth.
  3. Mistakes will be made. I didn't see any malice here.
  4. As I heard it: Pool Journalist asks for a list of allnames present at meeting with Obama. White House asks military to supply the list. Military does to white house, who supplies to pool journalist. Pool journalist writes story, gives to white house for approval. White house gives approval. I think I would give equal blame to military and white house.
  5. Sounds like the government is quite able to provide good health care then.
  6. Without context that is a pretty silly question. I am sure that both races have the same inherent ability to aquire knowledge. However if it is harder for one race to get into an education system, or if the education system available to one race is worse than the one available to the other race, you will end up with one race "dumber" than the other race.
  7. I like how under this subject capitalists become the biggest socialists. The VA has been a big problem since the 70s according to most of you. Most of you signed up with the knowledge that the VA system was not good. If this were any other subject, most of you complaining would ask questions about personal responsibility and/or taking responsibility for your own decisions.
  8. Excellent. What do you suggest that is more effective and less expensive? State parks don't have regulations? There is not State Agency managing these parks? WOuld you suggest no oversight? At least you have admitted that you want some regulations. Rush seems to think no government and no regulations is the best way to go. Yet, I don't see him travelling to Somalia any time soon.
  9. We know where Bush was during the attack and for a while after.....he was reading a children's book.
  10. Did you pass civics in school? Congress passes laws that empower the various agencies to make regulations. Do you REALLY think Congress passed every one of the Federal Aviation Regulations (to give just one example)? HE has it right The gov was never intended to work the way it does today All laws were to be voted on Now there is no representation because apointed bureacrats just creat rules as they see fit. So, to answer your question Yes, he most certianly did You on the other hand....... So you want congress to vote on all regulations coming forth from any federal agency? You also want small government? Or do you simply believe most regulations are useless and should just be discarded and there should be no federal agency overseeing any of it?
  11. In other words, you don't know for yourself when you will consider the science settled. Have you been away? Or are you just too afraid to answer questions that may expose your? When do you, rushmc, think the science will be settled? I answered your question You must be afraid to answer mine I answered all your questions. No You did not Sure I did....it is right beside where you answered my question.
  12. Unbelievable. It is useless to argue about the invasion of Iraq. SH needed to be removed and we did it. The point now is to investigate the BHO administration and their political motivation for the Benghazi murders. I especially would like to see HC fully discredited in the process. Meh, four people died...who gives a shit...rather put effort into a couple hundred kidnapped girls, or a myriad of other atrocities. You want nothing but using a couple of dead Americans for political brownie points. You don't give a shit about them, you just care if it can be used against a politician you don't like. Their families care. Way to annoit yourself as captain douchebag. If you were killed representing your country do you think your family wouldnt give a shit? They wouldn't be the first service members to die, with family members who will never know what really happened. Tillman's family only found out because he was an NFL player before. This isn't about providing closure to family members, it is about political ammunition. Funny how pointing that out is a douchebag move, but actually doing it makes you a patriot.

  17. Sorry, I don't subscribe to the fantasy that the world is consipiring to silence your opinions Marc. You keep throwing out that the science isn't settled. I am not sure what that means. Can you explain to me what that means to you. When would you consider the science to be settled? I can still find "experts" who will state that second hand smoke isn't bad for you. Yet, I consider that science pretty settled. Is man causeing the temp increases? I am very confident that at best this is an unknown Do you think the science has proven this otherwise? I have highlighted my question, maybe you couldn't find it before. What would have to happen for you to consider the science settled?
  18. Death is relatively cheap though. Long term disability is a lot more expensive.

  20. lol.....just as long as you get to cherry pick exactly which expert you get to believe right? I love how you found an article on BreitBart and have now made 6 or 7 posts waiving it around as the big smoking gun.
  21. I am trying to understand this argument. Are you saying that insurance companies want helmet laws, because somehow that would make them more money? How exactly would that work?
  22. Absolutely that happens...consensus can change, and often does. That doesn't make it a "desperate attempt" though.
  23. ok: That is what you consider a correction?
  24. Which is an interesting question. What if an agnostic or atheist wanted to address the assembly prior to them starting to ask them to do the right thing? Would that be allowed, or does it have to have a notion of faith? If it HAS to have a notion of faith, then aren't you favouring believers over non-believers?
