Ok, I shouldn't have said "finally," since people like Ken Lay were found guilty, but the point remains that Scoot got what he deserved. Still, others should have been punished for the Plame issue.
By the way, I found some Plame info, that is, I found her employment and cover history, to be precise...
Here's a quote: "Ms. Wilson was a covert CIA employee for whom the CIA was taking affirmative measures to conceal her intelligence relationship to the United States."
Heh, imagine if I had stopped after the word intelligence...Lol.

Good. Finally, a criminal gets punished despite his political ties.
Heh, I love Zombietime's stuff.
Question, though: Why do you call them "rich-ass hippies" and claim that they don't actually care? Is it just because of their cars?
Apparently it can:

"The hemp stalk can be converted to a charcoal-like substance through a process called pyrolysis, and used for power generation and to produce industrial feed stocks...Hemp as an auto fuel is another potential use. Almost any biomass material [i.e. hemp] can be converted to create methanol or ethanol, and these fuels burn cleanly with less carbon monoxide and higher octane."
So says the Hemp Industry Association.
By the way, I loved how the narrator tried to say dioecious.
Wait, what did you say about sons of bitches that you have to pass an exam?
Nice link, Proteas.
I'm watching it right now.

or complain about how Sharia is a RELIGIOUS RULE OF GOVERNMENTAL LAW, yet you all will piss and moan about an American politican professing a personal belief in Jesus Christ?
Only one of those pisses me off. The first one. If the nation democratically chooses Sharia, then maybe. But even then, Sharia disrespects the rights of "criminals," many of whom are not criminals under western moral traditions...
Look, if they want it, they can have it, but it's just a bloody stupid code.
Can't we just chemically neuter them?
What's to hear?
The science speaks for itself.
Geez, this is "citizen justice"?
I can't believe it...It's sad and cruel and wrong, really.

Connecticut is also richer, whiter, older, more educated, and beats the national average on the positive side on damn near every catagory.
Very much true, very true.
Yet we have:
Bridgeport and Hartford.
The national murder rate is "5.6 murders per 100,000 inhabitants," according to the 2005 FBI Uniform Crime Report (http://www.fbi.gov/ucr/05cius/offenses/viole nt_crime/murder_homicide.html). In 2005, there were 19 murders in Bridgeport, a city then with 140,177 inhabitants (http://www.fbi.gov/ucr/05cius/data/table_08_
ct.html) That's quite a few deaths. Hartford, a city of 125,086, had 25 murders (http://www.fbi.gov/ucr/05cius/data/table_08_
ct.html). Connecticut is not such a paradise...It's a great state, but, hey, now, we have our problem cities.
And lets face it, Connecticut isnt exactly on any drug dealers radar or any gang bangers radar.
I say again: Bridgeport and Hartford.
Your state is happy with the way it is, fine. Dont fucking push your garbage on us, on every state, with the federal government.
Most of our "garbage" works. High education spending, gun control and strong protection for civil liberties do a state good.

Yeah, I just noticed that too.
Weird, huh?
That kind of thing should get serious publicity, IMHO...

It's really quite simple.
1. Kids have no voice in the political process.
2. Kids aren't developed mentally to make decisions.
Don't Ask Don't Tell is discriminatory. If PFC Bob tells his buddy Spec4 Jones that he's heterosexual, than it's ok under DOD policy, yet if PFC Bob says that he's homosexual, it's a different story, according to the DOD. That's utter crap.
Your analysis is no better than those who advocate using the Bible to oppose homosexuality...
The Bible is something to, perhaps, consider, but it shouldn't be applied to everything verbatim.
It's a threat – not covered by freedom of speech protections.
Suing is a weak thing to do. I would have gotten them prosecuted.
Yes, there is no "conspiracy," but it is well known and well documented that certain media outlets cover the same events differently...
The south may have "issues," but Krispy Kreme is awesome...
Just kidding about the south, but, seriously, K^2 is good (K^3 is bad.)
The prick stole a car and killed two innocent kids.
The cops might have made a few errors, sure, but they're not ultimately to blame. At the worst, if they could have done something to prevent the deaths, there should be some sort of slap on the wrist, but I doubt they did anything.
Obama is quite american, yeah.
I still don't like him. He's annoying, pompous and doesn't speak to people – he speaks AT them.
John Edwards is a self-made aristocrat. What's wrong with that?

If we just lock them up for life without parole after 2 appeals, how's that sound?

Exactly. The UCMJ should apply to everyone equally, so, that way, even if there's issues (with men, women whatever), it's all dealt with fairly..
I like his "marque and reprisal" idea, but wouldn't that really just be inviting mercenary action?
I mean, it could be good, but that'd be like hiring, say, Blackwater, to take out Osama.
Yeah, I liked what Biden had to say, generally speaking, but I thought Osama and Hillary were too weak.
Oh, teachers, teachers.
I'm taking this US History "Honors" course...the joke is that we do less work than the kids in the "regular" course...no exams, nothing. Yet the course is based entirely around Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the United States," a book I had read, count them, two years before and concluded that it was B.S. then. I know the feeling of having an idiotic teacher...she was one of the two who created the class. What a commie.

Oh by the way, he's against the drug war as well.
That makes me very happy – The drug war is too expensive and it's not working.

Taxes are important for revenue, people!
If you call protecting people a "nanny-state," then you're gravely mistaken.

It says pg. 22 on the bottom and it's pg. 22 on my viewer. It's that GAO study you cited. This one.
And regarding the "economy before them," it may very well be true, but consider how our immigration laws have changed. They very much have.
