Saden - totally unrelated, but did you feel the earthquake early this morning out there?

WHAT?!!! There was an earthquake? I just woke up and I slept like a baby the whole night. I live in Bellevue which is 13 min drive from downtown area so maybe it just didn't reach my neck of the woods.

Haha, well I guess it wasn't too bad then. I saw the link on Drudge Report.

Both. The State taxes are yours and the Federal taxes are ours. The Constitutions of the State and the Republic outline how they can be collected and how they can be spent.

If Obama and Congress wants to spend our money on infrastructure or to upgrade and repair the energy grid, that's legal. But anti-smoking and reproductive funding is just nonsense. Those are people's choices.

My politics are very simple. If I'm not hurting anyone or breaking any laws then leave me to my business. Don't stick your nose in it.

Bush had no right to take our money and spend it in Africa. Like I said, I feel for them, but it's just not the way to do things. There are plenty of charities and outlets for people to help out if they want to. Africa isn't my thing. Mine is helping out retarded people in the Richmond area. This is my community and we take care of our own.

Feel free to make a donation. It's still a choice.

[quote=saden1;524010]You'll get your money back when I get my money back for the Iraq war. In the meantime a little self reflection might be in order. The truth is better than 50% of Americans don't give a shit about you, especially with your "first world" attitude. I would go even further and state that they care more about godforsaken turders than you.


My granddaddy aways said attitude takes you to altitudes. From the sound of things you seem hunkered down.[/quote]

Self-reflection? Are you posting from a monastary? Forgive me if I'm not as enlightened as you. Answer some questions for me. I'm sure you can answer because you're spiritual.

(1) What was God thinking when he made mosquitos?

(2) If God is a woman, is she a Redhead, Blonde, or a Brunette?

(3) What would chairs look like if people's knees were on the back of their legs?

(4) How can I bend space so that I can get to Jupiter from Earth in 2.5 seconds. E-mail the answer to NASA. They want to know this one too.

(5) Is it possible to do a Jedi mind trick in real life?

(6) What kind of Barbecue sauce does Jesus prefer, Teriyaki or Honey-Mustard?

(7) Is break dancing really dancing or acrobatics?

I'll be holding my breath for the answers and doing some self-reflection. :Smoker:

[quote=Trample the Elderly;524076]I'm sorry. I wasn't aware that they let women blog from Saudi Arabia. Who's bitter? Pay for your own abortions and you'll get no static from me.[/quote]

You just make assumptions as if you know what it's like to be a woman. Try being a black female on top if it.

If you have a problem with abortions, that's fine. But don't make some asinine sweeping generalization about how women have so many rights and such and such and make it a "who cares" type of attitude. I mean if it's too many rights for you, I promise there's space for you in the Middle East.

Alright, perhaps some people do care. Let me get to the point. I could care less about women, black people, or anyone else that isn't related to me or doesn't live in a ten mile radius of my house.

With the exception of my black woman boss who sends me work, my black male boss who signs my pay check, and members of the Washington Redskins [U]I could care less[/U]. Why would I? If they didn't pay me or don't wear the burgundy and gold I wouldn't care about them either. My boss lives down the street but that's not the point.

When you think to yourself, they don't know what it means to be this or that. Just remember, not everyone cares. Do your own thing. Just don't expect everyone to care or understand. I don't expect anyone to understand my point of view, even though it's outlined in the Bill of Rights. They think I'm nuts at work. So be it.

You missed my point. Women in this country have more rights than anywhere else on the planet.

No, I pay to live here and I'll live and breath where I see fit. Besides, I like my Western medicine and my indoor plumbing.

It's probably hard for you to understand a twisted sense of humor like mine. I don't expect you to. You don't honestly think I believe in my magic trick do you?

[B](1) What was God thinking when he made mosquitoes?[/B]

God did not make mosquitoes. [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosquito#Mosquito_saliva"]Mosquitoes evolved[/URL] an effective method for survival through millions of years evolutionary process.

[B](2) If God is a woman, is she a Redhead, Blonde, or a Brunette? [/B]

[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aesthetic"]Aesthetic[/URL] judgment of god is free, complete and perfect within itself. Supposing that god exists and was a woman she would be a redhead, blonde, and a brunette.

[B](3) What would chairs look like if people's knees were on the back of their legs? [/B]

Mankind would have gone extinct long ago and they would not have been around to invent chairs. No creature could survive a [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_genetic_disorders"]genetic defect[/URL] of that magnitude for long.

[B](4) How can I bend space so that I can get to Jupiter from Earth in 2.5 seconds. E-mail the answer to NASA. They want to know this one too.[/B]

Theoretically speaking the only means of archiving speeds greater than light (d / v = t; ([URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jupiter"]483,780,000[/URL][SIZE=1]dJ[/SIZE] - [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth"]93,000,000[/URL][SIZE=1]dE[/SIZE]) / [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_light#Use_of_the_symbol_.E2.80.9Bc.E2.80.99_for_the_speed_of_light"]186,282 m/s[/URL] ~ 2097 sec) is to use a [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wormhole"]wormhole[/URL]. Practically speaking we don't know how to open a wormhole and if we were able to and go through it you would simply end up on the other side in trillions of pieces.

[B](5) Is it possible to do a Jedi mind trick in real life? [/B]

You can with [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_argument"]persuasive arguments[/URL]. Unfortunately persuasiveness is a lost art, many attempt it and nearly all fail, and many can not distinguish various [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persuasive#Methods_of_persuasion"]methods of persuasion[/URL]. Often persuasiveness is confused with stimulating.

[B](6) What kind of Barbecue sauce does Jesus prefer, [COLOR=black][FONT=serif]Teriyaki[/FONT][/COLOR] or [/B] [B]Honey-Mustard? [/B]

From a historical point of view Jesus had access to the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mustard_plant"]mustard plant[/URL] and [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honey#Mediterranean_region"]honey[/URL] where as the soy plant, primary ingredient of teriyaki, mainly grew in the far east and confined to that region until [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soy#History"]15/16 century AD[/URL]. Statistically speaking it would be safe to assume he preferred honey mustard because that was the only option of the two available to him.

[B](7) Is break dancing really dancing or acrobatics? [/B]

There are no rules against it being both that I am aware of. You can be both good and bad ([URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enlightened_absolutism"]Benevolent Dictator[/URL]), a wave and a particle ([URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light#Wave.E2.80.93particle_duality"]light[/URL]), godless and righteous ([URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Meslier"]Jean Meslier[/URL]), right and wrong (conservatism :p), so on and so on. Anything and everything is possible, some possibilities are more desirable than others and some possibilities are statistically impossible. To answer your question, it can be both dancing and acrobatics.

[quote=Ruhskins;522776]So spending millions of dollars (and hundreds of lives) on a war we didn't have to fight doesn't bother you at all. Especially an expense that we probably didn't need and may have aided to the economic nightmare we're in?

I'm a Dem, and I oppose this subsidy (and I believe it has been overturned), but I try to be smart and look at the big picture. The money spent on this is nowhere near as much as Iraq has cost this country.

Let me ask you this, are you also against torture? Because if you are, guess what, you funded it directly also.[/quote]
Who was tortured ? Do you mean having water poured on a mans face who would poison or kill millions is torture ? Exactly what injuries are caused by water boarding ? The CRA / Subprime bills passed by Carter 77 and Clinton have cost much more than the war . B. Frank ( D ) , J. Johnson ( D ) , F. Raines < Clinton Ad,. > , J . Gorelick < C. A .> ran fannie Mae , Rubin , Clinton cabinent ran Citi and Raines worked at AIG . Add our cost into failing SS and Medi care ,,, the Dems have more than hurt us in the middle class . Not saying that the GOP has been anything special of late .
