some of them also run around putting flowers at the base of them after their weddings! ....

it's just a small step away from blowing up FBI offices in the midwest too...

i bet the american indians have a comment or two about statues of columbus, custer, various presidents, etc.

hey mr. passive aggressive, if it bothers you so much, do something about it instead of whining. you're SO seattle...

Gee, a rant about the Lenin statue....there's something unique....

Intelligent detonation of others = dipshit-seeking missiles.

You can also get them on eBay.

In a hastily assembled news conference, representatives for the Discovery Institute had this to say: "For years, scientists have been explaining toad explosions on unproven viruses and fungi. This is all just a theory and it's wrong for them to continue to bias our children's minds by not educating them in the alternatives. Our theory of Intelligent Detonation is equally valid because, well, it's a theory. Good luck disproving it."

They should clear out the dead wood, but only through a highly visible public process.....called Congress.

I've seen the accuweather et al goobers at conferences. they're basically packaging and prettifying data and forecasts that's already been generated by the government. hardly a free market. as has been said, we shouldn't have to pay for it more than once and if they want their own weather forecasts, they should develop their own forecast codes, satellite systems, and satellite data ingest codes. Fat chance that'll happen.

So, Peter, were you complaining about liberal bias in the media when Clinton was in office or were you just happy to see the RNC manipulate it? Just curious.

Further comment here would be superfluous....

Only 'activist' scientists would be so bold as to say that shrinking polar ice caps are 'either a natural regional effect or the result of human induced climate change'. Damn librul poindexters always blaming humans! They must hate America! Clearly they have an agenda! http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/news/archive/2005/04/21/international/i112352D76.DTL

It's not wasted if they turn them into dog food......

So, ignoring the war for the moment because we know we're not getting good intel on that regardless who we listen to, if the media brings up faults in his policies or points out negative consequences, are they just doing their jobs or are they simply on a 'liberal witch hunt'? Personally, I think the press tends to give presidents a free ride (regardless of party). They don't ever want to threaten their precious 'access'. That, and the fact that doing investigative reporting costs money and they're realized they can still be seen to be doing their jobs by most people even if all they do is report 'he said this' and 'she said that'. Analysis and research cost money so it's rarely done.

Granted, there's a difference between op-ed pieces and hard news, but if there were a 'liberal bias' in the papers, you kind of expect it to be more explicity put forth in their op-ed pieces than in their actual news. Besides, I've still not seen any independent study that proves that news has a liberal bias. And by independent, i'm not talking either the cato institute or the some liberal think tank.

sometimes skyauction.com has good deals. your problem is that you want to travel during the high season.

So, in the last week there have been editorials in the Times blasting a) banning military recruiters from high schools b) the new budget from state Democrats I'm thinking "liberal media? wtf?" I actually happen to agree with the Times on this but let's see some admission from the rabid right that maybe the media isn't as liberal as it would like to think.

How do you know what I've been a skeptic of? I've always been critical of administrations. How can you not be critical of any politician as soon as they open their mouth? It's also what makes me a registered independent and not a member of a political party. All of them make me too ill to want to be an actual member.

Too bad you aren't as overtly critical of your own government more often when it so clearly deserves it.

"You idiot! The guidebook said you needed a #4 cam for the crux...not a #40"

Hey look! No one had to subpeona anyone to get the answer! ;-)

I guess if he'd been some funcationally illiterate blue collar type who just went ape shit after seen a Vote Green sticker on a Honda Prius, that would have been ok..... Before you get the idea that I'm condoning the idiot's actions, I'm not.

So, Fairweather, what is it you have against intelligence? Slow day over at Ascensionist?

[quoteBased on the amount of rabid liberal hatred they elicited, you know they had to be doing something right. By that twisted logic, Clinton must have been a great president too based on the amount of conservative hatred he's elicited.
