  1. the funny thing is that it was the democrats that put forward the motor-voter law, enabling people to register to vote while obtaining their drivers license, effectively starting the whole voter ID thing in the first place.
  2. to be fair, I thought that when Duncan first went to the hospital with symptoms that he had told them he had been to west Africa, and they turned him away. it was on his return to the hospital via ambulance that he was finally diagnosed with ebola. it seems to me that if he tried to be admitted and was turned away that his family would have a case, especially considering the subsequent survival rate of the others who received treatment.
  3. will the real communist step forward please?
  4. not only do you assign stereotypes to anyone who disagrees with you, you don't have enough imagination to come up with anything other than calling someone a low wage-earner. if that's your only measure of what defines success, it's no wonder you're so bitter.
  5. he's right. you could market that talent, and maybe someday obtain a moral high-ground based on your salary and/or the type of car you drive.
  6. as much as I would love to see that happen, it never will so long as people will vote for candidates that promise to give them things. I could go for that as well.
  7. all abortion clinic bombings in the US were perpetrated by Christians, so we must ban Christianity and kill all Christians before they come for us.
  8. "Everyone asked, 'Do we have to pay this back later on? Is it a loan?' They said, 'No. It's a gift from Obama,'" he said. "If I wasn't eligible, then why give it to me in the first place? They knew we were living in an adult home. They knew our shelter was being paid for by the state. It's not like we lied on the application."
  9. I'm only quoting this in case you somehow realize just how ridiculous a post this is and go back and change it. what a pathetic waste of board space. can't you even make an effort at putting forth a salient point to accompany your childish trolling? the democrats got their butts handed to them. try to be less like a 5th-grader and just take your lumps like a man.
  10. if you can have one after that last photo, you should be proud.
  11. since Harry and the dems instituted 'the nuclear option' in the senate, a super majority is no longer required. that's coming back to bite them big time.
  12. nice......David Dewhurst isn't even on the ballot for anything. he lost the runoff for LG last May to Patterson. Abbott is polling 16 points above Davis. there's no chance that Texas will become a 'purple' state any time soon, unless the Texas voter ID law is overturned and Obama starts handing out all those green cards.
  13. it's a good thing so many students are graduating with degrees in useful fields of study, like art history or philosophy, or they'd never be able to pay those student loans off.
  14. not only is that hysterically funny coming from you, but how is it a 'shot' for him to say that bills have been sitting on Reid's desk when it's 100% true? you're calling people 'partisan'.
  15. did they actually say that forensics, autopsies, or evidence is actually interpreted as being biased against blacks? I thought they were just voicing concerns that 'authorites' (my word, not theirs) may be biased in their own favor. that's a lot different than making accusations of racial bias.
  16. but they never say that it's an issue of white people making the rules.
  17. how is Obamacare based on 'old conservative ideas', and why is it considered a 'bandaid at best' when it was sold as a complete overhaul of our helthcare system?
  18. I never automatically vote the incumbent out, but I've never actually voted for anyone, either. I've always voted against the candidate that appears to be the greater of two evils. they all suck. every one of them.
  19. not only stupid, it sounds like panicked desperation by a bunch of condescending egotists.
  20. yeah, I've seen some really unilateral discussions happening from time to time.
  21. that's certainly a good description of the average, everyday, facebook-american.
  22. or possibly quarantine. not frustrated. amazed.
  23. there absolutely is an easy answer: take a consistent stand and stick with it. in placing military personnel into quarantine and then undermining state governors' similar actions with their own citizens, he is being completely inconsistent. that's the point.
  24. the military may function as it's own separate entity, but the president is commander-in-chief of all the armed forces, so he's absolutely directly involved and completely responsible for the military's involvement in the fight to combat ebola in west Africa, having been the one to deploy the troops in the first place. I don't understand at all your statement 'United States Goverment handles the Ebola crisis not only seperate from the military, but the state to state legislation differs. (working unilaterally)' state to state legislation differs? unilaterally??? the president has insinuated himself into the manner in which individual states handle the ebola scare, specifically by making statements and taking a stand against what governors Cuomo and Christie felt was the proper way to handle the issue in their respective states. Obama has also taken it upon himself to appoint an 'ebola czar', increasing the federal government's role in the handling of the issue even further. when you have a president ordering quarantines for the soldiers that he deploys, and at the same time speaking out against any such quarantines here at home, after having directly involved himself in how this is handled both in Africa and domestically, then you indeed have a hypocritical handling of things.
  25. it can't hurt. it would certainly elicit some interesting responses.
