I'm gonna get me some of this... You see, Will, unlike people who say things like this: I do not wish ******, even on the sort of absolute scum who would say such a thing. Let me state two things clearly: 1) I wish you, Will, no harm. May you live out your life until its natural end. And 2)...

Oh georges. You're nothing if not consistent...here's one of your problems: What you think is 'direct and straight language' and your unabashed opinions are right-wing angst and ****. You prove this to all of us pretty much every time you post. Here's your other, I'd argue bigger problem...

I disagree with this post. ...mainly the word 'emerging', and by association, the 'n' in 'an'. I also have some reservations about the word 'seems'.

This was pretty much what I wanted to say. :clap: So I'll just repeat it for prosperity.

I always thought DOMA was a pretty clear breach of the Full Faith and Credit clause (I mean, I guess that breach is intentionally built in to the law?) as well as, one could argue, the 10th amendment (though we all know that one seems be nothing more than toilet paper for ages now). Prop 8 and...

Same here. :clap:

It warms my heart to see stupidity really getting called out. The topic of the death penalty will always be one of those keen moments in school for me; back in high school I was all for the death penalty and we had a speech project to pick a subject and argue for it in front of the class. I was...

While there isn't a lot of data at this point, what data there is points to **** doing no worse with gay parents as far as performance/behavior in schools were concerned (I posted some studies in another thread debating same-sex marriage). Without considering and simultaneously addressing...

I've always wondered how they weight the ratings for those; many really old titles show up in that list for reasons I can't figure out, at least superficially (being that they only have 50k votes, for example, compared to the titles around them with 500k votes). At any rate, the beauty about...

I should warn you that this thread is not new, and the post before mine is several months old. Which is just to say, feel free to continue pressing Will to answer the question we all want him to answer.

It's game time, bitches. http://nbcpolitics.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/03/26/17460260-supreme-court-hints-that-it-wont-issue-sweeping-ruling-on-same-sex-marriage http://www.latimes.com/news/politics/la-pn-supreme-court-gay-marriage-ruling-20130326,0,1511924.story...

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/progressivist You're safe!

Wouldn't this be georges losing it? Edit: Or, the other losing it...ha ha. Maybe both, in their opposite ways.

A Guide to Mass Shootings in America :cool: Though these are, of course, not necessarily indicative of "normal" *** ********, so I defer to HHJJ's sound logic: And that's all I'll say on that. As for the OP: can anybody explain to me "Catholicism: condom edicts" for 3m?

The article doesn't really add any more information than the headline, but here it is anyway*. *Actually, you should read the article just to read the comments and figure out how Obama and Romney are somehow included in said comments on a story that has absolutely nothing to do with them.

Pollution isn't just China's problem... China’s Poison Air Is Becoming Its Leading Export ...and I've already posted that some of it is reaching as far as the California coast. China is the prime example of the follies of the environment VS economy debate; quick growth comes with a very steep...

Ha ha... :hatsoff: He's had it coming for a while now.

Thanks for proving my point. Other than my reference to your infatuation with him, I haven't said a thing about Obama nor made any intention to, in defense or otherwise. More ignorant assumptions and generalizations. Says the Frenchman.

Don't worry, it's just become part of my morning routine. **** up. Turn on computer. Check e-mail. Vote in Miss FreeOnes. Eat breakfast. And so on. It even works out conveniently tomorrow as I apparently can only vote once more, in the last two hours of the contest. Which would normally be...

...no kidding. Ban hugs?! :facepalm:

I do have something to add, actually. You consistently come off as really stupid. Your single-track posts continue to push this image. You are the epitome of a right-wing sheep - your existence's only consolation to me is the knowledge that at least the States doesn't have a monopoly on this...

I fully agree with all of this. If it could be done accurately without agenda...but it can't. Even if technology were 100% accurate and effective, we'd still have that agenda element. If you weren't allowed to say 'ghetto', 'gang bangers', 'Obama' or 'leeches', would you have anything left to say?

To be fair, being mental and being a gutless armchair warrior are far from exclusive to each other!

You probably already know this, but it's a ****** effort. Will doesn't occupy the same reality as we do. As in, he has a mental disorder of some kind or another. I don't mean this as in insult; I mean this as my honest best attempt to explain the incredible consistency at which he operates...

I'm really, really glad you don't get to vote in the US. :facepalm:

And then... You don't say. :1orglaugh Are the nation's textbooks still mostly being produced in Texas?

Just doing my part. :hatsoff: Besides, the information is so easy to find...

Your problem, as usual mp, is that you see everything through the incredible (I use this word by its literal definition: not credible) bias and double standard of your own experience. One of the reasons science is what it is is because people figured out hundreds of years ago that their...

I **** to tell you this, but your personal experiences do not reflect the norm (one of the many reasons why personal experience is worth fuckall in debate). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_by_gender * 99% male on to 91% female. I reject your premise. * Yes, this is only one 'facet' of the...

No joke. Still, Have to agree here. He may be a tool, but at least he's beginning to point in the right direction. I am normally for states' rights, but in this case I entirely disagree...and now that I'm reading over the 14th Amendment, I'm curious how any bans of same-sex marriage are...

That Machester looks suspiciously like my ol' Manchester...

To be fair, I'd prefer an abacus to Vista... I'm still using XP. It just works. Granted, I'm using a netbook and therefore enjoy stark limitations on what my hardware would be able to do anyway... More to the point, most of the growth in the gaming industry is in mobile games. $0.99 app games...

In my days of dreaming up ideal healthcare systems, this is actually pretty much what I come up with. There is a massive challenge, however, in deciding thresholds of how much of which behaviors constitutes higher costs. How fat is too fat? How much ******** is too much? Considering how the...

I agree with this...though it ironically leads to supporting a single-payer/universal/something-we-don't-have healthcare system. Well, depending on your disposition. You either: Support one's right to ***** themselves to any extent and then you get to pay for it (what we have now) To avoid...

To be fair, it's really just mp...and hey, how do you know I'm not purple?!

:1orglaugh Sorry, it had to be done... Didn't Alabama already do that years ago? Or was it Arkansas? I'm glad you've cleared that up for yourself! Eesh. Maybe you should go join the class, mp. That focus on critical thinking would do you a looooot of good. Anyway, as for my thoughts at the...

Re: >>> LAST Round of Miss FreeOnes 2013! Who's going to come out on top?! $10,000 up for grabs! Is there any way to set preferences with this voting, or could there be in the future? It's a matter of small convenience, but it would be nice not to have to hit 'sort: Alphabet' and 'Hide thumbs'...

...christ. The last few pages are a stark reminder why I pretty much ignore most of the forum during this contest. Ugly stuff! But, that doesn't stop me from voting and I've always had a soft spot for women who can get righteous discussing politics. So here's my support, for what it's worth!

Ride a bike! :D I can attest right now that Portland drivers are among the worst I've encountered anywhere, though for a different reason than you might immediately think of when you picture a 'bad driver' (the more stereotypical meaning for me is illustrated by Cincinnati, where really almost...

I hear they ride unicorns in Finland. And unicorn reindeer.

The broken clock has reached one of those twice-a-day events... I second Mayhem.

Ha ha ha. Good video... Agreed.

I third this.

Autistic is a possibility. I was voting sociopath for a while, but it's tough to narrow it down. Now I'm thinking Schizophrenia: Sound familiar, no? In any case, I think Will's too consistent with his inconsistencies to be chalked up to just dumb alone.

I also want to second this. :thumbsup: It's certainly much cheaper in the long run. I don't know why fiscal conservatives aren't for it.

Are you talking about the TIMES article or the HuffPost article about the TIMES article? Because the TIMES article does address this. It even gives credit to the Republicans for trying to get through Tort reform. The article also takes about a 'safe haven'-type solution which together with Tort...

:clap: I have yet to see any compelling arguments that lead me to believe it isn't about control. Sure, for specific individuals it may just be their religious beliefs...but I'm willing to bet it's more often about control than innocent belief, and anyway, religious beliefs are about control...

And now for the real question: what the hell does that have to do with the article? Your bottomline is of course true, but it's a bit of a meaningless one. The implication being that because it's worse somewhere else, we should be happy with what we've got - I certainly don't accept that. And...

Oh georges. Your selective and intentional ignorance as usual fails to surprise. Maybe next time you could read the article, instead of going straight to your usual hard-on for Obama and 'the ghetto crowd' as soon as you read 'healthcare'. Moving on for those that don't have the time to read...

I thought I'd offer a change of topic with this article in the latest TIMES that talks a great deal about the healthcare system in the USA and why it's broken. From HuffPost: The TIMES article is here. It's a long article, but I think it's important for anybody in the US for obvious reasons...
