News:

Don't get me wrong, I greatly appreciate the fact that you're at least putting effort into sincerely arguing your points. It's an argument I've enjoyed having. It's just that your points are wrong and your reasons for thinking they're right are stupid.

Yeah, so.  I went off the rails a bit.


But if you're trying to describe the feeling that you realize the world is going to take an extra big shit on your child for being who they are, then I can't help think that "disappointed" is the wrong word to be using.

Quite simply, it means you have negative feelings for who and what the child is, which (if I understand you correctly) is not what you're trying to say.  It's pointing the negative feelings in the wrong direction.

You should be disappointed in the world for taking a shit on your child, not disappointed of your child for getting shit on.
If I understand Ippy correctly, that's what he meant.

Got to wonder how much of that is conspiracy theory especially coming from that site.

They're rehabbing the old internment camp in Florence, AZ.  This is a matter of public record.

they received rehab funds in 1952. Do you have anything more recent?

:lulz:

I got Nigel'd again.

:lulz:

The funding increases for Phoenix and Florence are for existing prisons that are completely unconnected to the FEMA system.  In all, claims have been made that there are 8 supposed FEMA camps in Arizona.  Every single one has been debunked by multiple sources.

Yeah, but you can't prove those existing prisons aren't SECRETLY connected to the FEMA system!

they're doing the office x-mas party today. I've been trying to avoid it because it's just a lot of christmas and Hanukkah music. but as an assistant, I get drafted to set up for bullshit like this. so I've done my set up, now I'm OUT!

I managed to escape before they began warming up. I'm trying not to make a big deal out of not going because I don't want to shit on anybody's parade...

But seriously, I find it a little alienating to have to do all this christmas stuff while I'm at work. I fills me with BAH HUMBUG, it really does.



oh fucking christ, they're caroling outside of my cubicle
I can't handle this today
That's what your office Christmas party is like?  Every office Christmas party I have ever attended had food and booze and did not involve caroling.

Aneristic Illusions / Orly Taitz for Senate!
December 13, 2011, 06:30:22 PM
Fuck yeah!  This century is awesome!

According to this two week old article, she has raised about 3/4 of the money she needs to be on the CA ballot.

Quote"I received $2,445 towards $3,420 registration fee," she wrote on one of her websites. "I need to collect $975 more in order to register on the ballot in CA as an official candidate runing for U.S. Senate. With an unprecedented level of corruption in the US Senate, House of Rep and courts, there has to be at least one person with the strength of character to speak up the truth about our Thief-in-Chief."

Meanwhile, Taitz spent the weekend in New Hampshire trying to keep Obama off the ballot there, according to Talking Points Memo, which is supported by the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.

Here is her campaign website: http://www.runorlyrun.com/

I see there that she has raised the money she needs to get on the ballot and will be registering "shortly".  Splendid!

Oh, look!  She's having a slogan writing contest, where a lucky slogan writer can win a $100 Wal*Mart gift card.

QuoteWe are looking for a catchy slogan that can be used to promote Orly Taitz's candidacy. The slogan must comprise of a few words not long sentences.  Not all slogans can be accepted because they may be the same or very close to ones we already have or have been submitted by others.

If you wish your name will be posted on our Slogan Contributors Wall.  If you don't want your real name posted to our Slogan Contributors Wall, enter an alias and we will post that name.

Deadline is Dec. 20, 2011.
Judgment  by Orly Taitz is final.
The reward for the winning slogan is a $100 Walmart Gift Card.

I registered on Tea Party Nation a while back so I could comment on something.  Now I get several emails/day every time a new article is posted.  I have come to refer to these emails as "The Daily Derp".  I got one yesterday where the first line made me LOL.

QuoteRush Limbaugh is America's voice.  He is the most powerful, most well known commentator on the radio, TV or the internet.
:rush:

The article was called "Rush's Wish", and it starts off about how Rush expressed his hope that Obama would fail when he was elected, and then praises the Republicans for intentionally sabotaging the economy to make Rush's wish come true.
:amurrica:

The article is here if you want to read it.

Looks like a repeat of the '68 DNC in Charlotte next year is possible.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/12/09/democratic-national-convention-occupy-charlotte_n_1138820.html

QuoteThe protests may be a dress rehearsal for Occupy Charlotte leading up to the Democratic National Convention. An estimated 50,000 people will visit the city during the DNC, transforming the moderately-sized banking hub into the center of the universe -- or at least the nexus of the 24-hour cable news cycle -- for the week.

This is not lost on Occupy Charlotte and other Occupy groups in the state. Luis Rodriguez, 33, an organizer with Occupy Charlotte, said he's talked to several members of occupations in Asheville and Raleigh, as well as a group 90 miles away in Columbia, S.C. "Everybody I talked to said the DNC is ground zero for everything," he explained to The Huffington Post. "Everybody wants to be involved. We're estimating several thousands of people coming especially from the Occupy community."

The article also talks about the City of Charlotte trying to pass anti-occupy ordinances.

Dammit!  Rick Perry and now Michele Bachmann.  That debate had the potential to be hilarious, but it's going to suck if it's just Santorum and Gingrich. 

The debate will be good for Newt, though, because sharing a stage with Santorum will make him seem likable.

a debate to be moderated by Donald Trump,


My brain actually cramped, just then.   :lulz:

I'm disappointed.  This thing seems to be going over like a lead balloon.  Only Gingrich and Santorum have agreed to appear so far.  Huntsman and Paul turned it down immediately, Romney turned it down after waffling for a few days, and the others are still waffling.

Also, it's going to be on cable channels that few carriers provide, so most people would have to watch it on the internet.

This article does not show language.

What it does show is that dolphins can use their sonar to differentiate between similar objects of similar size, and that a sonar blip emitted from one individual that bounces off an object can be interpreted by another individual that receives the bounce. Nowhere is there any indication that dolphins can send these messages to sonar between each other, only that the return sound bounced off an object can be interpreted by any dolphin. These images aren't communicated, because, except for the intervention of the researchers, every individual would be receiving the return sonogram at the same time, even the emitter.

For it to be language, dolphins would have to have the ability to emit sounds which replicate the return signal and send them directly to other individuals. There is no evidence of this.
Thanks Kai.  I misread the article and thought that's what they were doing.

Newt forgot to (or couldn't) pay the $1,000 filing fee in MO, so he can't even get on the ballot in that state.

I think we're being trolled.
I have a similar feeling.  Newt was also the first one to sign up for a debate to be moderated by Donald Trump, and I think that's going to be a circus.

PMZ,
really hopes he asks the candidates questions about Obama's citizenship.
