The mention of Idaho reminds me of a story from a hippy friend of mine. On the way back east from Oregon she stopped off for a meal in Idaho. In all sweet hippy naivety she asked the waiter if there was a vegetarian option. His reply was "Ma'am, out here, we feed the lettuce to the rabbits. And then, we eat the

Nope. Reading this thread has given me cock lox.

Not Mountain Dew. Mountin'—don't.

That, and , they're full of shit because of the way they pick and choose what "sins" to get huffy about. It's right there in the Top Ten (commandments) to "honor the sabbath and keep it holy", but you'll never see any of these hypocritical pricks picketing a Wal-Mart for being open on Sundays, just as you'll never see

The thing about missiles is that we have the means to see where they were launched from, and retaliate. I have little doubt that if an American city ever gets nuked, the warhead will be delivered not by a missile but by a cargo container.

I'm not too worried about nutcase world leaders launching nukes. But I am worried about nutcase underlings who have or might be able to gain access to nukes and go off on their own, just as I worry about religious nutbags getting access to WMDs. If somebody's crazy/desperate enough to strap on a suicide belt, what

So then we're in agreement: Tax the billionheirs and the corporations. No more tax loopholes for corporate jets, and no more subsidies for sending jobs to China. Tax Capital Gains the same as income derived from actual work. Stocks and bonds are property, so tax them just like real estate. Legalize, regulate, and tax

Not every A.A. is a thug, but how many of the ones who aren't are active apologists/collaborationists with the ones who are? Same goes for whites—how many white non-racists have their livelihoods depending on covering up for the Klan?

I may be mistaken, but I think a really good way to control riots is to prevent them from happening in the first place. A good way to do that would be to revoke the cops' "License to Kill". Reverse the militarization of police, test all cops for steroid use, psychological screen for all police applicants to weed out

The fact that she has supporters—the fact that there's a significant chuck of the population who understands her, agrees with her, and would voluntarily put her in power—is more frightening than it is sad and laughable.

It's not even that cheap. I get better fried chicken for less money from the deli at Stop&Shop.

Not the poor suckers who work for Papa John's, who are denied health insurance even though it would cost only about 15 cents more per pizza. Meanwhile Papa John lives here:

Orson Welles was a celebrity, wasn't he?

Apparently some dude at the BK bought up all 23 of 'em. Didn't you read that story?

We're talking past each other. You're talking about only the Presidency, but who sits in the White House doesn't mean Jack if they face a hostile Congress. Have you been paying any attention for the last six years? The Regressives have shown time and again that they have no scruples about cheating to win. As for

They have a stranglehold on the House and enough of a hold on the Senate to gum up the works with constant filibusters, and their tactics are such that this is unlikely to change anytime soon. As for the White House...a really paranoid type might try to make the case that they deliberately threw it so as to be able to

"You know those guitars that are, like, double guitars?"

"libertarian"

To win the general election they would have to abandon their base.

So....just to be clear, Dick Pics are OK now? 'Cuz I kept hearing how they weren't. Or are Dick pics only OK when they're run out as maps by lady joggers? I'm wondering, if it had been some dude jogging out tits-and-ass maps, would he be a "hero"?
