She also has ties to secessionists and thinks "under God" in the Pledge goes back to the founding fathers, if you don't mind more Daily Kos.

A lot is based on the blogger's opinion, but a lot is also sourced.

I seriously overestimated the speed of the fortress and the time I would have available, but I slogged through a year and can pass the file on. Mashing a bunch of pictures and words together should take no time at all.

Just shows people are running out of 'real' 'gaffes' to 'cast doubt' over 'Obama'. 'quote marks' are 'fun'.Looks like we can throw neoclassicalgate in with arugulagate, coffeegate, bittergate, wafflegate, soldiergate, islamgate, bidengate, berlingate, kenyagate, and chicagogate.

Everything Else / Re: Political and Social Theory Discussion
« on: August 27, 2008, 02:56:35 pm »I'm arguing about term correctness here. I have no issue beyond the word. It's like people calling whales fish. It has an established meaning, but would it suddenly be right if enough people said it? Of course not. Whales are mammals because they are defined as such. A whale does not suddenly become a fish if you call it one, just as a union of a nature different to the actual meaning of matrimony is not a marriage, despite how often people get it wrong.You don't lose internet points for missing the last word.

« on: August 25, 2008, 07:29:47 pm »In most cases the rich know what to do with their money, that's the reason they are rich. They are the ones that put up large scale investments, such as buying large tracts of land and developing them for whatever is deemed best at the time. Then the middle classes and lower classes all get paying jobs to help develop these tracts of land. All in all money circulates, the economy is stimulated, and everyone is happy.
Why would you want to ruin this awesome fun-time with horrible horrible taxes?
Obama might, but I can't see McCain going for it. Anyway, only time can tell.NASA is a low priority for Obama.
