Asparagus makes your piss smell funny.

The reality of the matter is under the US system and precedent, if the Supreme say it is constitutional it is constitutional. There is no objective reality in law only the courts reality. It is what it is.

Remember, Canada was mostly settled by Americans who thought the revolution was just too radical. They were called Tory's, same as it ever was. Only exception was the frenchies.

Hey don't rank it too much they have the cheapest beer in Canada and their bread and cheese are ok

Hate to disappoint you guys but that stuff in made in California.

Random foreigners killing them is the norm, not unusual. It has been that way since Alex da Great. They expect that so it does not raise a stir. It only seems weird to us. But ist does not mean they like us in any way, they just see us as the expected assholes like the Russians before.

Love it!!!

A few brave expats will battle the yanks just like 1812

Yeah, the agencies which 1. Aid US businesses (census, NOAA, Standards, Patent Office) 2. Try to educate Americans and 3. Produce and control Nukes and dispose of waste.

I watched from Eastern Canuckastan as it way after dark. Crikey what a pack of hoosers. I can't remember what it is but I want to cut these agencies note: Commerce includes the Patent Office, Energy includes NRC and production and care of nuck weapons etc. Of course Education does Student loans and we won't have any more of that nonsense.

C'est la vie ::

But, there is no money in that.

We spent the day climbing up Algonquin Peak in the Alleghenies NY

You could pay them nothing and they would be every bit as corrupt, they go into politics for power and graft the salary is nickels and dimes.

How about a little out of the box thinking? There was a distinct possibility that the US economy would have crated in 2000. We had lost manufacturing and good union jobs in the 1980's. The Tech bubble in the 90's and the dot.com bubble after that kept the 90's popping but all things eventually end. By 2000 the industry stagnated and never really got back to where it was, the dot.coms cratered. What to do next HOUSING! it provided lots of high paying American jobs and near everyone could get a piece of the action. Keep it hot my lowering interest rates and taxes on capital gains. Eliminate regulations so everyone can play. It is real easy to make money when interest is a couple % and prices are rising 10%/yr. After 9-11 push the heat hotter! If it hadn't been done there would have been a massive depression in 2002 and Schrub would have been a one termer. Toss in a couple wars and scares to keep the righties happy. Eventually all booms have to end and this one just ended a bit too early for McCain. What people do not realize now is that cutting spending means cutting jobs, ending wars means less employment and dumping a bunch of unemployed killers back into the streets. Increasing taxes also reduces jobs. Cutting back unemployment, raising retirement and medicare age means more unemployed not less. Deficits-jobs surpluses - depression. Have a niceday.

A similar act already passes in Senate, O has indicated he will sign. As expected went to a "first to file" system instead of the current "first to invent" system. This is sure to screw the individual inventor and small company. It means if you invent something and a big company files an application first @ cost of $5-10K. They get the patent and you are SOL. Another cute provisions allows Big Banks to attack Business Method patents but not anyone else.

Ronald McDonald is a scarier clown than Penny Whistle in "It".

First thing I noticed was that he seemed to prefer Ikea furniture

In Australia they have preferential ballots where you number the names in the order of your preferences. In counting they look at the first preferences first and if anyone has 50% they win if not they go to the 2nd etc. The parties hand out cards in the order they want to be strategic.

Not fair, most Downs kids are good natured cheerful people not vindictive hypersensitive beyotches.

Anyone of you pansies watch the great debate last night, eh, didn't think so.

I determined this was all going to happen last fall so I transferred operations to the Great White North. It is working out well for me, have fun beyotches.

The view from the center of the universe is that it is pretty much a snooze fest, not that there is anything wrong with that as compared to the States.

On nice thing is where ever Gaddafi is becomes by definition a "command and control center"
