I would say the US after 9/11 was more like a rhinoceros (maybe my favorite animal). It can't see well but it has acute hearing and its instinct is to charge first and ask questions later. Or not ask questions at all. It doesn't bluff and charges with the intent of making a big gash in the...

Legit question, has Boehner got any teeth? Well, lets see... First he can prevent Obama from nominating so much as a dogcatcher to serve in any position requiring confirmation. No SCOTUS nominee for Mr. Obama. So much for that legacy. He and McConnell can simply defund any agency given an...

Wait, the Earth is something like 3B years old. Its pretty conclusive, dozens of diverse analyses of rocks including isotope, ferro-magnetic and chemical are all in good agreement. Man has been around in relatively modern form certainly for more than 100,000 years and probably more like...

I say Obama doesn't have the stones for it. He may implement some appeasement measure for the La Raza types but I say he will not "open the floodgates". The guy could not even close Guantanamo, a facility under his direct and complete control as CIC. He is too timid to even exercise authority...

I've read the the US government is adopting a "hit back" policy towards cyberterrorism and cyberwarfare. Russia is full of primitive routers and communications hardware and I'm sure some of it is going to start working a bit oddly. We've been firing back at the Chinese for years now.

Oblate spheroid. At least that is what is taught in public schools in SoCal. Not sure what they teach them up in the great northern-central wasteland but it couldn't be worse than the Los Angeles Unified School District. I *love* geodesy and wrote an earth model that is getting some use around...

http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/392089/losers-victor-davis-hanson There are a lot of articles analyzing what happened in the midterm election but this one contains some language I find agreeable: "Fairly or not, the face of the Democratic party has been Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Harry...

“[T]he Genesis 8:22 that I use in there is that ‘as long as the earth remains there will be seed time and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, day and night.’ My point is, God’s still up there. The arrogance of people to think that we, human beings, would be able to change what He is doing...

At 21 they need a job and so have some skin in the game. I think people vote more carefully when they have something at stake.

I think he is in trouble for taking a swat at his wife. Everyday that clown spent in Washington helped the republicans. Few will forget the buffoonery.

There is huge divergence between the data and warmist claims of calamity. Certainly there is insufficient hard data to justify destroying the world economy. He isn't saying that GW isn't real, he is questioning the lack of scientific data that supports the GW assertion.

Lowering the vote from 21 to 18 was a mistake but it was not entirely a democrat scheme. It has more to do with the fact that an 18 year old can be a soldier and lose his/her life in war and at that time involuntarily under the draft. Probably those people should have the vote, right? The age...

lol I noted that Harry Reid's post election comment was "the message is clear, the American people want us to work together". Freaking hilarious. Harry, You are Fired.

The GOP is pretty clear on its strategy. They are going to attempt to craft bills as bipartisan as possible for jobs and energy and send those bills up to Obama for veto. They are going to try to preempt Obama on immigration with a bipartisan reform of immigration laws and send that bill up to...

lol The next step is we just go straight to pay-for-vote. Candidates will just literally raise money and buy votes directly and the one who can raise the most money wins.

The problem is his perspective. He doesn't understand the extreme volatility of conditions on our planet. He doesn't know what actually merits some worrying. Maybe a bit long to ask someone to watch but the point is that Earth is hammered regularly by rocks, scorched then glaciated by...

lol

I could not believe it when the fed didn't raise rates in 2004 when the value of my home and everyone's in my area nearly tripled *in one year*. I thought their damned job was to prevent overheating events by regulating via interest rate adjustments. Instead they simply mashed the accelerator to...

Very well. Tossing you onto ignore.

That level of classlessness and depravity is pretty unique to the UK. You are British. The oddity about it is that some of the best people I met up north were also British. You guys pretty much define the boundaries of good and bad in the LOS.
