You keep saying that like it's accurate. I had never heard of this guy before this thread. You keep saying that if it weren't for his views this wouldn't be a story. Fair enough. But I'd say it's more like if it weren't for his views he wouldn't be famous and if he wasn't famous this wouldn't be a story. It's a story because he's famous. If he played baseball or was high-ranking in the ACLU this would also be a story. But regardless of that, I think you are confusing the fact that it wouldn't be a story with the idea that people would accept it. If he wasn't famous this wouldn't be on the news everyday. But it's not like if someone told me about it anyway I'd just be like, "Oh well. Some people like to molest kids. What can you do?" I'm opposed to all molesters. People think he's a creep because he diddles kids. People know about it because he's famous. There's a difference between the two things. As far as people not caring when his records for leaked (or more accurately, deciphered). Yeah, that tends to happen. When bad things happen to bad people good people have a tendency to not care as much. When Mike Brown for shot in the head after stealing from a store and trying to fight a cop...shit happens. When Saddam Hussein was ousted from powers on false charges of WMDs...bye asshole. Hard to feel bad for people who are disgusting mutant monsters. This dude is a fukcing child diddler. Fukc him.

Who car... Damn.

I'd fair to venture that there are far more people who want a smaller military or want to intervene less than there are people like Zinn and Chomsky. You're generalizing the wrong way.

I made it over here as fast as I could. This hasn't sold yet, had it???

It doesn't play your Barry Manilow, though.

How is walking into your house and telling a little box on the way in to turn on the kitchen lights, set a timer for the streak you're about to take out, and play some Barry Manilow all while you're hands are still full with groceries/children/strippers not convenient?

Besides the Church itself, has anyone actually defended priests touching little kids? It's not like Lou is in favor of that. I've never heard him mention it and yet still I can promise that he's not in favor of it.

Maybe he's cool with diddling but incest is where he draws the line.

I think it's for people who think taking their phone in and out of their pocket is a pain in the ass.

WTF. Don't you have an iWatch? And you think this is pointless?

Cool. I'll let Amazon know.

Actually, they're more like Hasterts.

He's just saying they got a lot of Duggers. That's all.

Why wouldn't he just use one of the 650,000+ hundred dollar bills that Arte still owes him?

Anyone have one? Mine came last week. So far I've been impressed with two things. First, it's amazing all the things I thought this thing could do without realizing it isn't JARVIS. It's not going to know what year Bill Clinton graduated college. I just assumed that since the internet knows it, Echo would. But it can't really decipher all the information on the internet. Finding obscure facts like that is just outside of its current range. It's clear at some point it will get there. Maybe not this current version, but the world is definitely moving towards it. But I imagined, without thinking, that it could do stuff like that right out of the box. It can't. Second, I'm blown away with how useful I can see this thing becoming over time. Being able to just walk into a room and tell it to set my alarm, or set a timer, or play some music. And it can link up with home automation such as WeMo to control lights and heaters with just your voice. No need to even pull out a phone. And being able to just tell it to play music and having it play from Amazon Prime means I'll finally get some use out of that part of my membership. Anyone with it? Thoughts? Things you like? Things you wish it could do?

"Almost all republicans supported South Vietnam" is a fact? Define supported. Because I can think of quite a few in both my private life and who served in our government who stated their happiness in leaving Vietnam.

But we aren't telling corporations what they can do. We're telling people what they can do with their corporations.

There you go again.

Can I instead name the righties who were happy we left and stopped involving ourselves over there to kill and be killed?

The left loved this photo: almost as much as the right loved this photo: Amirite Juan?

Oh, so you are just pulling bullshit straight out of your ass. Cool.

I typed in the phrase as it was juggling through my head causing me to laugh. I wanted to find a way to include it. When I typed my post out and hit submit I was pissed to see the post above mine had the phrase in it. Came up with it completely independently but was just a little too late.

How does returning power to the people mean removing rights? Isn't that the exact opposite?

One of the board's most liberal member and one of the board's most conservative member both extolled the virtues of Ho Chi Minh. You're probably so caught up in "anyone who likes things I disagree with is a dirty liberal" that I bet you don't know who was who.

He has that face that always looks like he's whining.
