j_bot is finally showing us his true feelings about the death of the glorious leader of the People's Republic of NK... and it only took how many posts for us to see what we already knew? =

In j_bot's Marxist vision capitalism is 'freedumb'. 'Nuf said. You are so lame. It's definitely not worth the effort.

...and that's just his last six posts

I was doing you a favor by saying you're a liar considering the unpleasant alternative (blithering stupidity).

Wow. Behold the paranoid left.

You eventually call everyone you argue with regularly a liar. A harsh judgment to levy, and one I've never meted out so lightly as you. As for the rest of you "support of argument" I don't give a fuck. j_bot has a lot in common with the leadership of the DPRK who, in all likelihood, honestly believe "everyone else" is lying. Sad, really.

Gotta love j_bot's brand of democracy: "There's no need for additional elections. The people have spoken!"

Your combination of lies and getting the basic facts wrong is pathetic (Zelaya wanted to organize a popular vote on the constitution, jackass) And he ordered the military to do it for him. That's why they rebelled. Jackass.

That's rich coming from you, who in all probability haven't found an imperial war of aggression you didn't like. Obviously you didn't read the piece--and haven't heard of Charles Tilly. Remember, pretending to have read isn't the same as actually reading.

http://www.king5.com/news/cities/olympia/State-wasted-nearly-2-million-on-little-or-unused-cell-phones-134152503.html Nov 18 at 4:49 PM Nearly one-third of state-issued cell phones reviewed over a 12-month period by the State Auditor’s Office were used infrequently or not at all at a cost to taxpayers of $1.8 million. More than 2,000 of those phones weren’t touched -- not used at all -- during the audit period of March 2010 through February 2011. The bill for the unused phones was $533,000. The state spent $1.3 million on phones that were only lightly used in the time period. According to the audit, about 4,700 phones were used fewer than 30 minutes a month. The audit also found the state missed opportunities to save money by choosing costly and inefficient cell phone plans. “When we analyzed the use of phones serviced by AT&T, we found the state could save an additional $347,000 by changing most regularly used phones to a prepaid plan,” wrote Sonntag. The audit comes exactly two weeks after Gov. Gregoire issued a directive to all state agencies to cut down on the number of cell phones and cell phone costs. The state’s largest agency, the Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS), had the largest number of little- or unused phones during the time period. DSHS spent $1.4 million on cell phones in the year’s time on 4,284 phones. Of those, 649 were identified as unused and 1,327 were identified as not used much at all. The cost to taxpayers for those phones was more than $500,000. The auditor recommended that state agencies turn in all unused and little-used cell phones unless they’re required for emergencies. Sonntag also recommended that the Department of Enterprise Services (DIS), which maintains the phone contracts, use more pre-paid plans and offer stipends to employees who use personal cell phones for state business. According to the audit, some state agencies, including the Department of Transportation, already follow this practice. Sonntag commended state agencies that have already cut back on their cell phone expenditures. “I also would like to give credit here to state agencies that, in total, already have taken nearly 2,000 phones out of service and that have changed plans, resulting in an estimated savings of $732,565 so far,” wrote Sonntag. “We are confident others will follow as they work to be good stewards of precious public dollars.”

Good video. Reminds me of Charles Tilly's famous essay: "War Making and State Making as Organized Crime" http://www.scribd.com/doc/2846068/Tilly-War-Making-and-State-Making-as-Organized-Crime

Never mind that Zelaya was going to cancel elections. Never mind that the so-called military "dictatorship" that removed him has now stepped aside. Never mind that you have had your nose up Hugo Chavez's ass since day one... Yes you do, in fact, support authoritarian regimes.

Admit it, j_bot. You were crying too.

I never denied the climate is changing. But, hey, if you want to adopt the j_bot/libtard style of characterizing your opponents' positions to simplify the arguments you have to make, I can understand. It's a lot easier! Neither did I. I've just said it's unlikely that the unusually large quantities of CO2 coming from Dru's hole (or the uncorked CH4 coming out of his other hole) is causing it.

BTW, the "payroll tax cut" should be allowed to expire. Shame on both parties for promoting a free lunch at election time.

Unless you're casting your write-in vote for William Jennings Bryan, it's a pretty safe bet you're voting for these guys in November: http://www.workers.org/

Yet another great died yesterday: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-16236393 "Havel devoted his life to the cause of human freedom. For years, Communism tried to crush him, and to extinguish his voice. But Havel could not be silenced."

Very nice.

Unlike your twisted version, mine isn't compulsory.

Forget Kyoto. It's the 7 billion people who are the problem. Time to offer disincentives for people willing to limit their "contributions" to the next generation. And offer incentives to those willing to codify it.
