  2. r YOu suRe yoU teach hiStory? what'd i git wrong? sure managed to bullshit the good-people on the AP board that i knew something... Did Lincoln ever pretend he or his fellow Republicans would leave the South to its own devices? More importantly, did they believe him? Apparently not, since they almost immediately seceded from the union post-election. They were probably even less convinced when Lincoln began raising a big ole army... (I think you may be a bit confused with or are conflating party lineage?)
  3. Here's another one that Obama's "base" has willingly overlooked: [video:youtube]UQXZoM__vU0
  4. Just not sure how you can call his latest whopper a "misstep." Stunning.
  5. Sorry Kimmo. It's just too hard to explain things to someone who thinks vaccinations are a government conspiracy, but, at the same time, thinks it's ok for dear leader to monitor his terrabits, spy on reporters, deliver guns to Mexican drug lords, and take health coverage away from one group to give to another.
  6. A few more lies and assorted evil deeds. NOthing you libs would care about, though... [video:youtube]eDfmUK833hc
  7. Dude, you otta hear yourself now!

  9. Them republicans aint the president or interfering with my life. So, basically, no, I wasn't interested.

  11. Has anyone here checked on Kimmo?

  13. Prole, I stand corrected. Touche.
  14. Dude, did you read any of my posts? at all?
  15. don't let socrates here you say that! WHY DID HE HATE DEMOCRACY????
  16. Nailed it. You could substitute any other name for "Monsanto", and the issue would still be the same. And, unfortunately, your misguided argument would still be the same. My argument against GMOs (their usurpation of the natural environment) would have presented a stronger case than the one your fear-mongering, dreadlock I-522 friends managed to concoct. Again, do you think mandatory childhood vaccinations are a good idea?
  17. Nailed it.
  18. Dude, he was in another one of his drunken stupors. Can't we cut the guy a little slack here?
  19. Prole fancies himself a keeper of inside knowledge; a sort of meditator perched on a higher shelf. Hence, when any sliver of common ground is acknowledged by those he views as his enemies, he rolls his eyes and sighs loudly "well duuuhuuuuh." But the real secret is this: those he perceives as his lessers are usually far more dialed in than he is--and the lonely shelf he sits on is full of volumes he has never bothered to read.
  20. That pin looks collectible. You should dump it into a large plastic baggie and store it in the freezer.
  21. Source Not to worry. Monsanto also purchased a company that is studying how to stop colony collapse. In 10 years Monsanto will sell plants that kill bees and as a sideline sell the antidote. Can you say Cha-ching $$$$$$$ If you've got money and don't mind ethical controversy buy their stock I don't know if this colony collapse thing is credible enough to stop the machine, but it would be interesting to see the FDA and/or Dept of Agriculture forced into performing an Environmental Assessment or a full-blown EIS under NEPA that considers all of the direct, indirect, and cumulative affects of GM seeds before they issue any more approvals for trials or patents.
  22. Sounds like maybe you're a little too emotionally invested in this thing?
  23. That part was pretty funny. And, after all, what girl wouldn't want that on her resume? Can you describe your responsibilities during your time at SeaWorld? Um, yes, I frolicked in a small tank with kidnapped Orcas. I tossed them fish when they performed prescribed tricks and, on occasion, I gave them supervised handjobs.
  24. This is the correct approach, IMO. The human health/gross-out strategy is just more of the same in a long line of emotional, ideology-driven BS. It has never worked. The way these GMOs can affect the natural world is the way this 522 battle should have been fought.
  25. Respectfully, you seem to be better at asking questions than answering them.
