    Phil Robertson bout ISIS : "Convert them or **** them"

    I think this is a great opportunity. Let's arm Phil Robertson and his followers and ship 'em over to fulfill his strategy.

    Want pictures of Miss Hybrid and I together?! Spend credits at her store! (for charity, of course!)

    Ha. This would be something I'd gladly empty my account of points for, but I'm afraid I've pretty much already done that and I know my highest balance probably pales in comparison to some's (yeah, I said some's. What).

    Do You Guys Think Mitt Romney Is Running For President Again?

    If there's one thing I'll give Romney over Obama, it's that he's obvious with his corporatism. It's like the Democrats and Republicans; they both give you big government, but at least one is honest about it. That ***** honesty in either example isn't enough to get my vote though.

    muslim riots in paris

    As a European, I feel quite free to speak my mind here and tell you that that was probably one of the stupidest things I've ever read, and I've read the likes of georges and Sam Fisher.

    The Bullshit Clinton's "We Left The White House Broke"

    Moderates like myself don't vote for evil, lesser or otherwise. The false dilemma trap is their game, and it's in your head. Don't fall for it.

    U.S. Ain’t One Of The Top 10 Most Sexually Active Countries

    I wouldn't put too much faith in this; this article links to a blog which then links to nothing. Just numbers from seeming thin air. Here's the study I've been going off of, though admittedly I couldn't with five minutes' effort track down the original data...

    British Government Doesn't Need a Warrant to Spy on British Citizens

    I can't say anything to this specifically, but as far as I know, many of the countries in Europe have intelligence trading schemes which effectively amount to the countries spying on another's citizens for that country in question - i.e., it may be ******* for the German government to spy on...

    Do You Believe in American Exceptionalism?

    I believe in American exceptionalism in the past tense. The country's past is what made it great (which isn't to say there wasn't plenty of ugly in there as well, but that's the same everywhere), but it's what it's doing today that counts today. And what it's doing today doesn't strike me as...

    NASA physicist working on warp drive

    I imagine it's a little more than a couple years away. Many more; the problem with going faster than light is that the acceleration to light speed requires effectively infinite energy due to mass, and as we all know, infinite anything doesn't exist in reality. The most promising discovery on...

    ​Vodafone Reveals Scale of Gov't Snooping in Phone Networks

    No, the worst part is that we did more than just 'let', we encouraged it at every election. We got only what we voted for. No more, no less.

    Marine Le Pen's confidence vindicated by Front National election triumph

    I'm far from an expert, but from what I've read: France is one of the biggest beneficiaries from the EU in general. Their farming industry is largely EU-subsidized (which seems to mean these days largely German-subsidized). I actually agree with knocking down the EU a notch in much the same way...

    Oregon Joins The Ever-Growing List

    About fucking time. It's been embarrassing to my state that it a) ****** the **** in the first place and b) didn't immediately repeal it, especially when the other states started. But hey, better late than never. Now Washington is only marginally cooler! Ha!

    Is Industrial Civilization Headed for "Irreversible Collapse"?

    As a student of power engineering, I want to stress this point: historically, only one thing has consistently lowered energy consumption (and I would wager this extends to other forms of consumption as well): price. Double a car's fuel efficiency? People drive twice as much. Double the price of...

    Wal-Mart, China, and The Bill Clinton Lie

    So...I've got to be frank. According to my scroll bar there, you've managed to turn more than half of this page - in a thread about Walmart and China - into the Philbert Show, of which you are the co-star. Have a good think about whether you want to be the co-star of Philbert's show. "Who's the...

    Georgia Passes Law That Allows "Guns Everywhere"

    Oh Mayhem. I'll allow myself this one reply, because it isn't really about guns or the NRA, but you. The reason I'm not interested in discussing these topics with you any further is because you're not interested in discussing. You're not interested in debate. You're interested in crushing...

    Georgia Passes Law That Allows "Guns Everywhere"

    And here you highlight the problem I suspect Mayhem is missing - FBI statistics are telling us numbers, not meanings.

    Georgia Passes Law That Allows "Guns Everywhere"

    This is part of the problem I'm talking about; we don't have good research on the subject, so all we get is screaming. Maybe this will make Georgia a safer place. Maybe it will make things more dangerous. We don't know.

    See earlier links. Read them this time if you're honestly interested in the answers to your questions. On this we agree. But it doesn't paint the pleasant color you want to see. Losing what, exactly? Interesting bar for 'conspiracy theory' you have. Ah look, words in my mouth.
