No one is more liberal than I! 5% Conservative, 95% Liberal Social Issues: 0% Conservative, 100% Liberal Personal Responsibility: 25% Conservative, 50% Liberal Fiscal Issues: 0% Conservative, 100% Liberal Ethics: 0% Conservative, 100% Liberal Defense and Crime: 0% Conservative, 100% Liberal I think the only conservative part about me is that I think affirmative action sucks because and doesn't address any real issues.

It doesn't. Yes, the coriolis effect (from the Earth's rotation) causes things to spin different ways in different hemispheres, however it requires something very large and spinning for a while to be effective. The best example is hurricanes, which always spin ccw in the Northern Hemisphere, and cw in the Southern hemisphere.
Given his very short tenure, one has to wonder how good he would have been if he had not been assassinated. That is a story for a hypothetical question of the future. Well, I do have an extra time machine lying around. Wanna go back in time and save him?
The right is also trying to create a totalitarian plice state, with the Patriot Act, Ashcroft, racial profiling, etc. And the sorry excuse for a left in America isn't helping either. D or R, they're both the same
The worst movie to watch on commercial TV has to be Total Recall. They had to take out so much stuff: The guy used as a human shield, the swearing granny, and most of the blood and violence. I mean, without the blood and violence, why watch it?
Latour, You may think this is a knee jerk response, but it's not. I HATE the American left; I cannot elaborate the reasons why at this time, but suffice it to say they've taken much from me in their quest to create a utopia. This isn't paranoia,it's fact and personal experience. I'm not a true conservative; I am a libertari
Here's a thought: how about the term "American"? Seems to fit. Or "people"
neocon translated as "new conservative" if that helps anyone.
Great point Gideon. It infuriates me to no end when people have the audacity to judge the combat actions from the comfort of their own homes, without having ANY kind of knowledge on the subject or experience of combat. We ought to always err on the side of innocence until proven otherwise by competent authorites......wait
So, while the rules of your first person shooter game may apply to your cyber universe, they do not necessarily apply to real life combat. And we would be well advised to reserve judgement until those in the know have the ability to make an informed decision. You make an interesting point, but it's not just video games. War movies, which have be
Gotta love it when they use sub-standard means to remove profanity too. "You eat pieces of sh-scum for breakfast?"
We need to also protect our right to tell blonde jokes. Let's face it, 2 relatively smart people and one stupid person walk into a bar just isn't funny! That goes for Newfie jokes too
This is better than anything I have ever done in Chemistry. Although there was the one time I took out a ceiling tile. I was doing an "experiment" where I would put about 35mL of isopropyl alcohol in a large water bottle (like from a watercooler), and swirl it around so it would coat the sides and begin to vaporize. Then I would ignite the vapours with a candle on the end of a metre stick. For some reason, the concussive force of the escaping gases
BTW, what color is the bandwagon, and does it have those cool flags all over it? It's red and is used to transport several tools, including hammers and sickles
This kind of stuff has to be one of the biggest things keeping me from church (aside from near-militant atheism). It's nice knowing that I'm not welcome because I'm an L-word
I'm with you on the African-American thing too. That's iritated me for years. The thing is, not only is it a sorry-ass attempt at political correctness, it isn't even accurate or descriprive to who peoiple are referring to. Would a black person from Jamaica be African American? What about a white guy from South Africa? What about any of the ab
Sweet! Now I don't have to hold a broomstick and say "vvvvvvvvvvvvvv-vwwww! vwwww! vwwww!"
Gideon, of all the people I would expect to be doing this knee-jerk "liberals are Stalinists, Conservatives are nazis" crap on JU, you were probably the one I would have least expected. Yeah - getting a little sick of the Hitlers and Stalins having blogs I don't think anyone on JU qualifies as
Another thing that bothers me is when some people call every single person that lives in Africa an African-American. THEY CAN'T BE AFRICAN-AMERICAN IF THEY LIVE IN UGANDA! Can you tell that some things bother me? tell me about it. Uhhhhh...African...Ameri...Can...Amer...Canadian. Oh, hell. Can
The leftist agenda is EXTREMELY sinister. And we SHOULD fear it, as its logical end is the end of freedom for all Americans. They are advancing the concept of a totalitarian state that Stalin would envy. Gotta love how everyone on the left is Stalin and everyone on the right is Hitler. I may be a socia
Interesting, isn't it, that despite years of recruiting at "hempfests" across the country, the Democrats have YET to produce serious legislation as to the legalization or decriminalization of industrial hemp, let alone Marijuana? This is because the Democrats are busy pandering to a populace they do not intend to represent. The L
Yet the Luddites are the ones that are against anything that god did not invent, and so we are violating the laws of nature. While there may be some on the right, the only ones I have heard of are on the left. Left of Mao that is! So would that make the Amish far-lefters?
Mmm, convenient idea, but in reality we have tons of examples of how broken Marxist thought really is. Well, basically every attempt at its application that I can think of... It worked in Yugoslavia under Tito. Of course, Milosevic f*cked everything up afterwards...
Cheney because of his heart. Cheney has a heart?
