Re: Best Invention Ever Funny
It would have been funnier if the last module pulled a trigger on a revolver pointing at the guy's head who wasted his time building this thing.

Re: A question for Pro-Lifers
Taking property from someone and giving it to someone else is socialism.
If you moved your truck, I might call you an un-ethical dickhead, but I wouldn't call you a criminal.
I really hope that I don't get forced to pay extra for meteorite insurance. Would you want to pay for meteorite insurance?
My guess it would be covered under the catastrophic bodily injury clause anyway, so I would sue them when I woke up.

Re: A question for Pro-Lifers
1) That is an interesting argument, becuase there has been serious advancements in the field of ectogenesis, or artificial wombs, and so pro-choicer's may have to adress the moral issues of fetal extraction as apposed to fetal termination sometime soon. Abortion could be made illegal in the United states becuase of this technology.
2)If we do believe that an unborn human organism is morally equivalent to a born one, then the status of its humanity must trump the inconvenience of pregnancy, just as we cannot allow for the euthanasia of a premature infant due to the inconveniece to its care-givers.
3)This is because the infant child has a right to their own property, i.e. their own existance, and yet the nature of childhood precludes any abitlity for personal responsibility or survival on behalf of that child, until it reaces adulthood.
Also, socialism does not allieviate the suffering of the poor better than a capitalist system does, There has been no greater force to create more wealth (i.e. physical resources) and distribute it to more poor people than free market capitalism.
Using your logic, one could successfully make the argument more poor people die because of wealth redistribution than have because of income inequality.

Re: A question for Pro-Lifers
Interesting, I was expecting more hostility towards women who have abortions, since the pro-choice movement cliams that the "anti-choicers" are actually motivated by a desire to control women, rather than to protect the unborn.

Re: Fox News Isn't News. It's a Political Operation.
What if you don't like self-espoused communists and 9/11 truthers being appointed to important cabinet posts, or organizations which promote criminal activity recieving your tax dollars, and you don't like Glen Beck?
Who do you turn to then?

Re: Export USA: WMD
Well, according to everything I've seen here, as well as all of these comments on this post, our soldiers should immediately be thrown in jail for war crimes.
Every tank commander, every pilot, every footsoldier who obeyed orders to carry out Bush's attempt to exterminate the Arab race must be prosecuted, and perhaps even executed, just like the guards at Aushwitz who obeyed orders from their Nazi commanders - otherwise the Nuremburg precident has no meaning.
Anyone else here agree?

This guy is famous for playing fast and loose with his predictions for the housing market and financial industry, years before the crash. All of his predictions came true while nobody else saw it coming.
Here is one video of his fast and loose predictions, there are others with him making accurate predictions as far back as 2004.

Its in our best interests to listen to him. Nobody did a few years ago and look what happened.
