What republicans have been doing for the last 6 years is not dissent, it's sabotage. Yes, everyone has their needs and wants, but what the right wants is built out of ignorance and stupidity and is hurtful to the country and they have said we will get 100% of what we want and you will get...

True, but they are winning. Every time somebody says "it doesn't matter which side you vote for, they're both the same," that is republicans achieving their goal. Obama and the democrats have tried to do good things to improve this country, while the republicans sole objective has been to spoil...

They are being ****** to work within the system that's ****** on them to stay in the game. This week, every single senate democrat voted to overturn citizens united, while every republican voted against it. That's a pretty clear message from both sides I think. True. Before his term was even...

Lame. Republicans are counting on people like you not to vote. If everyone votes they won't have a chance and we can start to fix all the damage they've done to this country.

I agree with what you're saying, that the citizens united decision precipitated a very steep downturn in the quality of government in this country, but if you think this isn't a partisan ******, I suggest you look back at the title and most of the posts so far in this thread.

I care, and you should too Johan. This shows that these America haters are finally starting to run out of lies and fabricated scandals about the president, and all they've got left is "OMG democrats had a fundraiser!" Sorry, I mean "money grab." I wonder what it's called when republicans do...

The area of ice is growing, not the volume, dipshit. Ice cover extent is thin, seasonally fluctuating ice that can completely disappear in a year. Ice volume is still rapidly decreasing. Can you just accept that you're not a climate scientist? And that the hundreds or possibly thousands of...

Here's a classic example of that cherry picking by probably the biggest habitual picker on this forum. A handful of obscure sites and blogs from a very specific google search. It's very easy to google for the answer you want and fool yourself into believing you're getting the right one.

Might as well give up, Johan. He'll never understand how tragically hypocritical that post was. For republicans in America, ignorance is something to be proud of. "Who cares if 95% of published work agrees. I found a single article on an obscure fanatical website that says different! You're...

Re: DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz says Scott Walker is "grabbing women by the hair and pulling Yeah, it pissed me off that they couldn't find anyone real to run against him, but still, by then he had shown his hand and everyone who voted for him knew full well they were voting against...

Re: DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz says Scott Walker is "grabbing women by the hair and pulling And more than half of Wisconsin still voted for him a second time anyway. Makes it hard to maintain faith in humanity.

^^^I think that actually IS the best looking asshole in the business at the moment. I would like it like it was the bowl that held the last ice cream in existence. Edit - Dammit 2012, this was supposed to be right after Catie Minx!

Re: DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz says Scott Walker is "grabbing women by the hair and pulling So, she has no place in politics because she's not hot enough? Huh, I wonder why republicans can't get women to vote for them...

Many people would argue that the British SAS are in fact the best special ******.

Re: DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz says Scott Walker is "grabbing women by the hair and pulling So, you must have been pretty pissed when Palin compared the USA to a battered wife under Obama then? Scott Walker's record on women's rights has been at least as horrendous as with any other...

Please tell us where this magical fountain of pure information is located, because from what I've seen all you've done in this thread is go out and cherry pick bits of information that support what you already believed.

Oh look at that, a conservative suggesting a policy that's already been proven to be a huge waste of time and money!

It's more Americans being shafted by republican "government" (do republicans offer anything else?). That should **** you off no matter what state it's happening in.

It's not "blind faith," it's "faith in the president of the USA." What you have is blind hatred with no basis in reality.

That's not true at all. Even if economic performance was the only indicator, there are plenty of ways to make short term gains that have long term drawbacks.

This is why today's republican party can't hope to get a president elected. Anyone extreme enough to survive their primaries will never be elected by the general population.

Ah, gotcha. So even though all indications are that it is more successful than anyone expected, we still have good reason to believe it's not going to be successful. Reality is going to catch up to you sooner or later.

How dare he make tweaks to improve the implementation of a new law, who does he think he is, a politician??? Um, the affordable care act is a raging success, and will continue to be. Don't you people ever get sick of being wrong about everything?

That right there shows how stupid they are, because in 2009 when they were gaining momentum, federal tax rates were at historic lows. If they really are about tax, then they are the stupidest movement in history.

I had several strokes after these 2!

Why? Because you'll never need birth control, so who gives a ****? Do you understand how insurance works? We all chip in. Those who need it get to take some back out. Those who don't chip in anyway. That's how it fucking works. Birth control is a very common and reasonable health expense for...

Unfortunately there are only a handful of people with both the finances and the public profile to even attempt it.

Yeah, that was a stupid thing to say, Hilldog is usually smarter than that. A lot of people are hoping the dems will put up someone else, but even if they don't she'll still be a thousand times better than anyone the right will put up.

Hahaha, I love this gif, they look like a couple of birds desperately trying to feed each other!

I think the problem with charging stations is that we're still waiting for the technology to catch up. When you can charge a battery as quickly as filling your tank, and get a similar range out of it, the switch will be pretty close to instantaneous. These guys have a phone battery that can...

Because the tea party has god on their side. When you are the voice of god, compromise is evil, and so is anyone different from you.

So, because the technology is not perfected now, there is no way that it will be possible in the future? Battery technology is getting better all the time, we're getting more charge into a smaller volume in less time every day. Fortunately there are people who are not as short sighted as you are...

Repetitious bullshit is all you've got. Australia and a bunch of other countries ARE showing you how it's done EVERY FUCKING DAY. Showing you how affordable education is done, how health care is done, how equality is done, how freedom is done, how functional, democratically elected...

Re: The "Obama Girl" finally came to her senses. You never made a point. You still haven't made a point. You made an extremely opinionated observation that countries that have successful democratic governments are unimportant and/or tiny. Ever since then you've been harping...

Re: The "Obama Girl" finally came to her senses. The point being discussed was government, you started bitching and moaning about how hard it is to be so awesome. I left my home country reluctantly for personal reasons, and when the opportunity comes I'll take the first flight back...

Re: The "Obama Girl" finally came to her senses. Well the rest of the world is sick of America's "this could never work" and "that could never be done" attitude about things that are working in other countries all over the planet. So things are a bit tougher or more complicated...

Re: The "Obama Girl" finally came to her senses. Just because I chose to focus only on one point because it was 7 am on a Saturday and I'm sick of Americans being shocked and amazed that Australian ****** were involved in all of your recent wars, doesn't mean I missed your point. In...

I'm going to pick on this because it's kind of a sore point with me. During the last gulf war Australian SAS was in Baghdad providing intelligence before the US had even entered the country. I remember reading an article at the time by one of the reporters who was kicked out of Baghdad prior to...

My home country, for a start, which consistently outranks the USA in any indicator of freedom you care to look up, along with plenty of other countries. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_freedom_indices So, you're saying those countries succeed where America fails because they don't have...

The concept of government is not a failure, the American implementation of government is. There's plenty of countries in the world with democratic governments that work great. The core of the division in this country is that some people want to fix it, some people want to give up on it, only...

Yeah but holy ****, who is going to decide what is "truth?" Every single lawyer that ever was, is or will be will have more work than they can handle until the end of time.

Yes, failbert, you sure are an expert on "just plain ignorant folks." But I am a little surprised that 4 star generals and admirals are not "hard core survivors and smart folks," I guess you have to be below average to get promoted that high in the military. I sure would love to hear you share...

But, the military are supposed to all be republicans! And republicans don't science!

Hahaha, I guess religious zealots and republicans need to have their own definition of winning, otherwise they couldn't exist.

It's stupidity to take any interest in things that may not fit in your own current set of beliefs? Well that explains the black hole of ignorance that surrounds you.

Good video MBG, but the problem is, half of America already knows, the other half refuses to acknowledge.

Yep, that pretty much sums up the entire argument from the right. Is failbert's position as stupidest under threat?

This is the whole problem. Even once it's built, the pipe needs to be constantly inspected and maintained. A common sense approach, not just for this but for all industry, is to have government set standards, and government managed and trained inspectors, PAID FOR BY THE INDUSTRY. For some...

I think it's the height of human ignorance to have so many qualified people tell us that this is happening but a significant chunk of the population refuses to believe it because they did a little bit of googling and found some talking heads that tell them not to. Nobody is disputing that the...
