Uh-huh. I look forward to your continued posting instead of you actually working towards this, with this topic only to be broached again in the future when you feel there is enough groundswell for you to post such bullshit and get away with it. I don't expect to garner any support on this particula...

Very well. I'll report back to you when I've acquired the munitions to carry out my plans, at which point I expect, no doubt, that you'll report me to the police. So be it.

Martin Luther King and the civil rights movement managed to avoid all that. Need I remind you that the Reverend King came into a leadership role a full century after the Civil War - a century which, might I add, saw the Ku Klux Klan reach an organization strength in the millions, the destruction of...

You don't see how insanely dangerous and prone to backfire a militant, anti-christian vigilantie organization could become, and that it would only accomplish its goal at the expense of thousands of lives? Of course it would be dangerous. No great undertaking is accomplished without some amount of h...

So basically, you're advocating supression of religious groups by the threat of a violent militia that explicitely excludes Christians in a predominantly Christian country. Getting your movement labeled as terrorists and both inciting and legitimizing violent retaliation against you. Good call ther...

Frankly, the only sort of event that will both guarantee homosexual rights immediately and preserve them in the future against any Redeemer -type movements (as has now taken root in California, in reaction to the judicial ruling recognizing marriage there) is a full-scale, militant neo-abolitionist ...

Sens. Snowe, Collins, Specter and Lugar at the very least will likely be the most bipartisan on the Republican side of the aisle. There's even talk of McCain being more amicable to the Democrats than he appeared to be during the general election, because he knows his time is short and he wants to c...

This was announced today. If Hillary was thinking she was going to be SoS, I doubt Kennedy would have announced it so soon. I have my own thoughts on this; chiefly, that in this situation Clinton is to Obama as Johnson was to Kennedy, being offered a position as a token display of Party unity, with...

No, no. You need a heavy, Germanic name to be taken seriously in this world. When I have a son, I intend to name him Friedrich Wilhelm (after the philosopher, not the Kaiser) Ingram. Other fine German names are Walther, Konrad, Matthias, etc.

Anyway, something else: if it clicks and you start working for someone or a party and things are going well, the people who've been working at it for a while can probably point you to any additional education you might need or want. They can say that this community college is better than that one f...

So if you had a high school diploma you´d be able to get into better schools? Something like that. I've had it explained to me by several of my former teachers who know of my plans that, after a student completes two years at a community college, it's generally possible for him to get a transfer to...

What´s a GED? The General Equivalency Diploma (or the General Educational Development test) is essentially a diploma available for those who have not completed secondary education, which tests them on five different subjects (varying by geographical region). They're not as useful as an actual diplo...

I've already gotten my G.E.D., so I don't know how viable an option that would be. It's possible, I assume, but I haven't inquired about it.

First, several personal caveats that are essential to understanding my predicament: I am nineteen-years-old, and I've been out of school for two years now. I was unfortunately unable to complete high school, due to personal reasons that I'd rather not delve into here; suffice it to say that I droppe...

I know absolutely nothing about video game design, which is why I didn't comment on it.

I want to see World War I brought to life in a FPS game. There have been more Civil War first person shooters - in fact, there has never been a World War I FPS. It's high time that record was broken. The most common rebuttal to such a suggestion is, "How do you make trench warfare exciting?&quo...

None of which makes me happy about Clinton. I fear this will be remembered as the first mistake of Obama's Presidency. Though RedImperator did give a possible justification, albeit a cynical one. It does make sense, in a perverse way: Clinton, through her moderate-Republican-posing-as-a-Democrat hu...

Give her a nice padded resume for the 2016 run I suppose. That woman will never be President, I guarantee it. She'll be sixty-nine in 2016, for one, and she has no real base of support other than older, culturally conservative Democratic females. Republicans loathe her, and progressives despise wha...

Why are we there? And if you say "to establish a democracy," I'll reach through the screen and punch you in your useless goddamned face. What was the casus belli given to enter the country, again, and why are we there after it was proven to be fallacious? "Establishing a democracy&qu...

New York Daily News WASHINGTON - Barack Obama ended his campaign so flush with cash he's telling staffers to keep the change - and then some. Long-suffering political footsoldiers who toiled tirelessly, at least since September, to put Obama in the White House recently learned they will be getting ...

Because ArcturusMengsk tells us so? Uh, yeah. She bitches about corporate monopolies like Microsoft's Windows XP and calls herself a "conservative" at the same time. She's clearly no free-marketeer. The “welfare queen” and “states’ rights” arguments tapped into that portion of America dou...

Ten percent of the population is not politically negligible. The African American minority is only thirteen percent. It most certainly is, when one considers that the ten percent or thereabouts of the population who identify explicitly as 'fiscally conservative' don't always vote for whatever reaso...

Yes, we troglodytes. Congratulations. You've won the Internet! I have no interest in pussyfooting around with you. You are the enemy, and will be treated as such. Who's been talking only about economics? Obama was vulnerable to conservative criticisms on a variety of issues ranging from inexperienc...

It is my personal sense that Obama didn't have a greater margin of victory because of what he stood for, not due to the color of his skin. Bullshit right-wing mythmaking alert. For twenty-eight years you troglodytes have attempted to persuade Americans that they're really 'center-right', when in fa...
