And making a million dollars an hour shouldn't seem strange or repugnant -- it's what every person should strive for. I'm disappointed that for somebody out there it does.

Good lord.

Sikh terrorists bombed a Canadian airplane once. All I did is float the idea that this could be related to Ireland, which despite being at peace for decades now, still has lingering tensions. It takes only one nutjob with a grudge to act on them.

Air India is a Canadian airline now?

Your aggressive tone is not needed. What I said was a legitimate argument, as is any suspecting of Islamic, Christian fundie, Anarchists, Tea Party, or Leftists motivations behind it. The flight was packed with Canadians, it was destined for Canada, and as the Paul Martin himself said "it was a Canadian tragedy." So get over yourself, your acting like I said something completely different than what was said.

It takes a special kind of creature to acknowledge that someone called out both sides...then say it was to "express outrage" with one side...


Here's what I felt the need to share that didn't meet your immediate approval, brittain: left wingers calling it a "far right wing militia" attack and right wingers insisting it's an Islamist attack. Now it's not even good enough for me to openly criticize both sides.

We're here talking about the attack and what happened and sharing news, and you come in to drop a stinking turd about "asshats" on "both sides" when that's not even what we're talking about. If you want to start a thread where this bombing is a chance for you to express outrage at left-wingers, kindly take it the f[inks] elsewhere.

Shoulda, woulda, coulda. With the information the government had in 2003, the Iraq War was the right choice. It's easy to sit here in 2013 and complain.

Anderson Cooper just said to be on the lookout for a black man with an accent.

Lot of detail there, CNN...

How?  It's night time!

From now on, I'm putting all sarcasm FAILs right here where they belong

Or we could have dealt with the debt a little...

The American people rejected Al Gore's idea to pay off the debt instead of cutting taxes.
This is not true. Gore received a half million more votes than Jr Bush.

That depends how you define conservatism. Changing the concept of terror from being a crime which should be fought by police and intelligence services to a war was certainly a radical change and a break with tradition and moderation.

Well, I obviously meant "conservative" in the context of American politics. It is true, as you previously pointed out, that modern American conservatism has little to do with the historical conservative ideology.

It's not.  Good old-fashioned conservative policy in America is isolationism and ignoring what is going on overseas.  While Bush didn't run on that in 2000, he did walk it.

Overall I very much support gun rights more as part of my puritanical support for absolute right to private property (means of violence should be allowed for someone to protect their private property.)  On pure merits of this amendment as is I am mostly neutral about but I lean against it most based on the fact that I think it can be a part of a slippery slope toward a gun ban.  Of course ever after Obama raised taxes on 450K+ my view of the Obama regime now pretty much channels Mao Tse-Dong Thought "We should support whatever the enemy opposes and oppose whatever the enemy supports" (Mao 1939)  From that point of view I applaud this amendment's defeat.
