Dammit, that adds another person in the Religious Right to be burned at the stake when I'm the Grand Inquisitor. That's fucking sacriligeous!

Now I understand why Muslims get pissed at Muhammad cartoons. That bastard did the same thing, and.....

bottom line....

if you are truly a progressive and you believe in the rule of law, then bush, cheney and all their staff are war criminals, guilty of crimes against humanity

and the congress for not impeaching and imprisoning these people are accessories after the fact, and are thereby guilty as well
Tell me how I am wrong!

The only thing I would add, is we are all accessories and guilty for allowing bush and this goverment to invade another country in our name. The majority of this country have turned their heads and looked the other way. We the people have done nothing to try to hold these pricks accountable for starting this war or the crimes they have committed in our name. Its easy to place blame, but alot harder to look in a mirror and also see blame.

I understand that. Especially since since we're basically just a space rock hosting meat and plant biology hurtling through a infinite void.

I can see it now, a season of freakishly many and powerful hurricanes and tornadoes, with understandably cooler weather during the actual storms, and there'd be some yahoo saying, "Land o'goshen ma, it's only 45 degrees, where's Al 'Global Warming' Gore?"

I always wondered what the LA in LA Fitness Gyms meant, Los Angeles or Louisianna?

I've been self-teaching myself for over 30 years. It's not exactly like Texas high school students discuss logic and reasoning.

As for my 2 associates and one bachelor, when I had one course in Freshman Rhetoric, we were mostly taught how to use the computer to get assignments, and transfer them completed back to the instructor's electronic briefcase.

You presume way too much.

Yes quantum and particle light wave theory is definitely one of my favorite subjects of pursuit.

Another is how can Iraq be at once a peaceful democracy and yet be a genocidal 'killing field' or more precisely walled up killing ghettos.

However, education can be an inpediment too learning, why look at our MBA resident.

Well, I was going to explain the difference between weather and global warming, but others beat me to it. So I'll point out that the Earth isn't hurtling through an infinite void. Imagine a napkin as space and it's floating horizontally. Now imagine a small ball as earth. When you place the earth on the napkin, the earth creates a depression in space. We're literally stuck in orbit around the sun.

WSJ: FDA Withholds List of Chinese
Heparin Suppliers From Congressional Probe

WASHINGTON -- The Food and Drug Administration is withholding a list of Chinese heparin suppliers requested by congressional investigators looking into problems with tainted supplies of the blood thinner, saying confidentiality agreements prevent release of the companies' names.
...

We American citizens aren't allowed to purchase pharmaceuticals produced in other nations because other nations don't assure the purity of the pharmaceuticals like "our" FDA does .. right?

But not only are the pharmaceutical companies who sell in the USA allowed to import over 80% of their ingredients from other nations, they are also protected from revealing their sources.

In dogma it's "just the way it is". In metaphysics it's duality theory, or negative and positive polarity is required for this hallucination to continue to exist in material form. Or the "glue" thats holds it all together.

A lot of that has to do with the theory of dark matter, and sub-quantum "particles--strings--tissue" theory.

Now imagine my napkin(s) at a Texas barbeque.

I would recommend go to wallyworld (which has it) or similar and get some Tetley's British Blend premium black tea,
thats the real authentic strong stuff (stand your spoon up in it) and has a real tea flavour, cheap too and comes in 80 qty round teabags.

That also reminds me of a Calvin & Hobbes joke. Calvin was explaining just that very thing to his mother. And then the view pulls back to show him in roller-skates saying, "By the way mom, I broke the pitcher while pouring myself a cup of lemonade while roller-skating across the kitchen floor."

The last panel show Calvin's very ticced off mom, as only Bill Watterson could draw them, mopping and muttering, "How can kids be so smart and so dumb at the same time?"

LOL, I was in fact checking mode. :-)

If your poking at me I said it “CAN”. I did not say it’s an absolute concrete rule of universal law. It’s up to an individual to set their own limits as to what they can and can’t accomplished.

So did I.

I see reading comprehension isn't your forte.

Hard to tell someone they are wrong Marko, especially when they are 100% right. Nancy has completely failed in her duty to defend the constitution! I for one, will never forgive her. What a disappointment.

Yes. Our solar system is orbiting another solar system? Where? Regarding our galaxy, the Milky Way's hurtling through a void doesn't affect us. LOL.

Actually it's not a void either. Most of our universe is missing. Probably gas and dust. But we're having trouble finding it. Wonder what dark energy is? And why gravity is so weak?

I liked the blogs you picked out today, except for the Daily Howler. I disagreed with his premise.
He kind of missed the whole point of the Clinton campaign and of Mr. Robinson's column.
She was supposed to be the 'inevitable' candidate. Heck, they didn't even plan on campaigning after Super Tuesday!

This is Clinton's argument in a nutshell; Vote for me, because Reagan Democrats are too racist to vote for a black person! That's why they're called Reagan Democrats, after all.

It's also kind of funny for a blog to accuse an analyst of having divine rights while having at the bottom of the page "The incomparable archives"

A majority of the House GOP has voted against motherhood.

On Wednesday afternoon, the House had just voted, 412 to 0, to pass H. Res. 1113, "Celebrating the role of mothers in the United States and supporting the goals and ideals of Mother's Day," when Rep. Todd Tiahrt (R-Kan.), rose in protest.

"Mr. Speaker, I move to reconsider the vote," he announced.

Rep. Kathy Castor (D-Fla.), who has two young daughters, moved to table Tiahrt's request, setting up a revote. This time, 178 Republicans cast their votes against mothers.

178 Republicans actually voted against Mothers' Day.

Apparently, this was part of a general attempt to prevent the House from getting anything done...
