Let me start off by saying this is one of my first personal computing articles. Let me round that statement off with this one: I feel my ideas are so good that if I had a few billion dollars I would attempt to make a hostile takeover of apple (though leaving Steve Jobs in place). Apple makes great computers: we all know this. Anyone with an iPod knows how us

I am really dumbfounded as to what happened the the grand old party. The party of civil rights. The party which was fiscally conservative. I am not judging, I am just curious. The GOP was the party of Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln was actually the first Republican candidate. The republicans were also historically in favor of a central bank and a central currency. They were also pro-federal government as opposed to the democrats, who were pro-state,

You should have no problem with this decision, right? Oh, wait... courts are only right if they concur with YOUR opinions. You needn't talk much about oppression. You seem well acquainted with the concept. If the people disagree with you, then use the courts. If the courts disagree with you, then they are wrong. All hail Emporer

The reason we don't live in a true democracy is that sometimes people don't know whats best or beleive something that doesn't coencide with what the founders of this country felt (and it is up to the supreme court to decided this). The supreme court has the the authority to overrule the verdict of the people. Hence the three branches of our representitive government. The judges are chosen by the president we elected. That president can do things the ma

No, as I have tried to point out, the courts have the say on what is constitutional and what is not. At that suggestion, I am shouted down and told that I am too court happy and don't like the government to operate the real way, by people changing. The point is, truth/opinion/bull shit, it doesn't matter. If it is unconstitutional, it frankly doesn't matter what anyones interpretation of who makes a good parent are. Being gay does not affect your paren

You must not be a US citizen. Enviromental whackos hate conservatives even when they support the whacko agenda. So whether this guy is mongolian or Tibetan or what, he is a Lefty in the US. I will ignore your obvious ignorance this time. Stererotipical bigoted right winger.

No Sandy, that is the LAW! The President cannot enter into any treaty with out the advice and consent of the Senate. You are welcome to look it up, but you are wrong and I was not applying logic, just the facts. You were applying the logic that he can't enter into the treaty without the consent of senat

Non Partisan. Did you like that? Well I truly will try. The future is hard to determine, as we all know, and it becomes even harder when you take into account what the government might do to help. So I will try to first give the scenario where nothing is done till imminent disaster is near. The next 100 years will bring us a warming globe, shrinkin

Dr. Guy, that is flawd logic. The fact is, the president DID enter into the treaty whether he had senate aproval or not. He was not representing himself, he was representing the american people, and the United States, and therefore the United States is bound by its laws. The question then becomes was it legal for the president to sign it, but that also becomes void because the public, and congress knew about his actions, and since they did not question

Bakerstreet, you seem to not understand the concept of constitutionality. It doesn't really matter if voters feel I would make an unfit father, because I like you, have the constitutional right to have children. Likewise, that can not be taken away from people by a law passed, but rather by a court who deems ON AN INDIVIDUAL basis if certain people do not make fit parents. Generalizations like "gays would make bad parents" are both unnaceptable and unl

Ain't no buts to it. No ratification, nonbinding. Signature or not. That's one of the major things about the protocols. And as you might be aware from previous posts from me, I could care less what the world thinks. That is in fact not true. Ratification is just a clause that requires a number of countr

Dr. Guy, while the actual event involved an actual resisting arrest takedown, the sub plot regarded what the paratroopers would do with the people (assuming the didn't resist arrest). They deemed it impossible to try them in a civilian court because they could never let the world know of the planned attack. They decided they would have to kill the people by getting them to "resist arrest". Lucky for them, the people really did resisit arrest.

Bakerstreet. you are DEAD wrong. Homosexuality is not a choice, though choosing to live in an openly homosexual fashion. Do you choose to be attracted to women? No. Its just who you are attracted to. Likewise, if you were to be attracted to men, it wouldn't be because you chose to. Ask any gay and they will tell you they did not choose this, that this has been with them since they started feeling sexual thoughts. The constitution protects ones right to

I got home from the latest press briefing today at the North American International Auto Show. This time it was a rolls royce press brief. Now, I happen to really like Rolls Royce, and I like their cars and I respect them. This car cost $500,000. It was a really nice $500,000 car, but none the less it cost $500,000. This shows what a society we have these days... we L

Homosexuality isn't a choice, and I personally feel that being in a wheel chair takes more away from being a parent then being gay. The people who approve a law don't decide its constitutionality. Hence the three branches of our government.
