Well, according to the strip search case, the courts cannot second guess the police. So certainly they cannot second gu4ess the President.
The appeaols court should be so briefed – on a roll of toilet paper Then the judge should be lead off with handcuffs and strip searched.

That would have been stupid of him.
Like I said, he’s been called.

FYI: I’m a Democrat
And if you’re so blasted smart, then prove it. You’ve been called.

O come now. being a Democrat has nothing to do with any sort of economic reform. That’s just window dressing. Being a Democrat instead has everything to do with femi-fem social values and laughing at rough hewn lower middle class folks who like different music and have different feeling about how family life should work.

Speaking as a cancer survivor, when I read articles like this and when I also read Peak Oil type arguments that the entire economy is going to tank and bring everything – including the healthcare system – down with it, I say – good – bring it on.

Following this logic, President Al Gore would have soundly defeated the son of George H. W. Bush ( also named George, as I recall ).
Romney and Obama are Tweedledum and Tweedledee, so far as polices and character are concerned. The number of bigots who oppose Obama because he is black will be offset by the number of bigots who oppose Romney because he is Mormon.
Obama is a known factor, while Romney is untested. The prospect of all three branches of the federal government being Republican will cause more liberals to turn out than presently expected.
Once the Chinese cease funding the federal deficit, however, whoever may control what would be left of it will be academic.

Drug dealers will buy them first thing.
The Mexican drug cartels already have. Currently they use them to smuggle loads of drugs over the border.
The Iranians recently downed a plane; while also reportedly drone software has been infected by a virus. Howto sabotage a drone will become a burgeoning field.

Cheer up.
There’s a good chance that, instead, the economy will totally implode and we’ll descend into barbarism.

In the interests of bipartisanship, Obama should cede the election.

Oh yeah!
And what about “how hard it is to get things done in Washington” and the magical “69 vote requirement in the Senate”? and yada yada yada.

Since the Democrats also favor the rich, it actually is unfair just to single out the Republicans as such.

9 percent of the population seriously believes that the world is flat.
Have you asked these 9 percenters how they define the word, “Congress”?

dckinder commented on the diary post What to Do When the Media Says a Protester Attacked a Cop by spocko.
Nobody wants the protesters to be violent ruffians.
However, nobody wants the protesters to be otherworldly, impotent, femi-fem wimps, either.
That would just reinforce the stereotype that “liberals” are folks how have substituted estrogen for civility and have nothing practical to say or offer.

There is nothing whatsoever wrong with the messaqe “Fuck the Troops.”
It is long past time we got our collective noses out of their arses.
As for Occupy Wall St., it is a transnational movement, filled with numerous Europeans and others who would have no problem speaking even more plainly to the over glorified baby killing US military.

dckinder commented on the blog post Mitt Romney May Simply End up the Last Man Standing
Yeah, and there’s not a damn bit of difference between him and Obama.
In the interests of bipartisanship, perhaps Barack should simply step aside. That would help eliminate that messy “democracy” business he so obviously dislikes.

What Central Directorate is going to issue these standards?
In order to make an omelet, you have to crack a few eggs; and that necessarily means disrupting things.

I have no use for this fellow Howley or the American Spectator; but mixing it up with the “authorities” and acting in a manner that “discredits” one is a necessary part of any serious movement.

dckinder commented on the blog post FDL Book Salon Welcomes Lawrence Lessig, Republic, Lost: A Declaration for Independence
The corrupting influence of money is true enough so far as it goes.
But there is a deeper problem. The nation state itself as a form of political and social organization is becoming obsolete as the 21st Century gives rise to transnational, networked, or purely localized organizations instead.
The nation state’s corruption we observe is the consequence of its loss of purpose.

Obama’s problem is that he is indistinguishable from Mitt Romney right now.
Romney’s problem is that he is indistinguishable from Obama.
The rest of the Republican field is a freak show. No matter how bad Obama may be; they are worse. ( Yes, I hate that argument as much as you do. )
QED: progressives need to worry less about who gets elected president and more about ripping the teeth out of the presidency. After all, if our votes don’t count, then who’s elected shouldn’t matter.

dckinder commented on the blog post The Poll Result that Should Scare the Obama Campaign the Most
Seeing as how Mitt Romney appears to be the most likely Republican nominee and that Romney’s polices are Tweedledum to Obama’s Tweedledee, many people will be tempted to vote for Romney just to shake things up a bit.
