    because we can

    Robert Graves quotes the new Emperor Claudius, speaking to the Senate... "I shall do nothing unconstitutional... My family has run this empire since you so spinelessly handed it over to us." (read G.W.Bush and Co.) I hope you sorry fuckers who voted for him the second time are god damned happy.

    Trademarks

    Actually...if you google my name it will offer a link to urban dictionary where it will say that I created the definitive definition (or is that redundant?)...for pwnz, which is the infinitive of the word in question. So I think that I own the word and I will sue everyone, including Google and Tech Dirt if I don't get paid a lot of money. I am certain there is some justifiable reason for this...

    Re: Re: Spam

    "The United States ARE somewhat supposed to be akin to the European Union, just more inline with one another. States are supposed to be their own little kingdoms that all obey a common set of rules and fund a common military."

    That little misconception was settled in 1865 when the guy in the gray suit gave the guy in the blue suit his sword. And the correct verb is now IS, not ARE... "The United States 'IS'"--not "The United States 'ARE'". There effectively have been no 'States'Rights' since the court ruled in favor of the 'commerce clauses'. They own us, bubba.

  • On the post: Police Officers Can Search Your iPhone Following Arrest For A Traffic Violation

    Charlie Potatoes ( profile ), 22 Jan, 2008 @ 10:58am

    In Texas,as in most states, if you carry an in-state driver's license, you can be taken to jail for any offense with the exception of speeding, for which they must give you ten days to appear. Non residents do not have even that exception. So the officer can follow you until you fail to signal a lane change, arrest you, and then toss you and car, including your iphone or laptop. And none of you see a problem with this? Duh.

    Sticks and Stones:

    W.T. Sherman once said that if he owned hell and he owned Texas, he would live in hell and rent Texas out. Still, half our (Texas) problems are caused by yankee carpet baggers coming down here, taking over our school districts, our courts and legal systems and voting in their own brand of Neo-Con right-wing christian evangelical zealot bull shit. The sad fact is that the whole country sucks and not just Texas. Bush is from Connecticut and it was in Florida that our election was stolen. So kiss my rebel ass, you belly- aching morons, and go sweep around your own back door.

    Re: Not To Mention...

    Our first commenter said 'the countries' don't want them'.. wow... nice going.. to interpret the mood of a nation.. tell me...do you begin by asking the guys in the marble palaces if they want it or do you start on the end of the country with mud huts and lean-to shanties? how the hell, exactly, do you know what the country wants or does want? In Texas there used to be an oil-well company that advertised with the motto, "Don't have an oil well? get one!" same principle here. I suspect the people who want or need this product do not make it into your survey when you opt to speak for the country, bubba.

    not a good idea

    that won't work for the same reason that they canceled the Texas State Fair's annual Dallas Parade of Virgins.. One was sick and the other refused to march alone...executing all below 80% would leave Mike writing and me posting...

    Re: China

    ah, whippersnappers all... hehe when i was a boy the japanese econony was trying to rebuild..our markets were inundated with the shoddiest, cheesiest, crappiest products imaginable...we used the term "jap crap" and would turn most products over to look for the ominous 'made in japan' label required by law, then not buy it. well...not to belabor a point but now they make cars that run 250,000 miles while our detroit crap falls apart at 100,000. i suggest we sit back and watch china figure out how it's done.

    Jack is asked if people will find his 'sirloin burger' more attractive than the competitor's 'Angus'... best commercial in a long time, it made me laugh out loud.

    Re: He's no hero

    Let me see if I follow your reasoning. A little guy tries to make money off a big company who makes their money abusing little guys and he is no hero? ok.. so what is it that he did wrong..impersonate a Congressman? A CEO...? Very Republican reasoning, Guy. Lots of family values involved, im sure. Or is it homeland security he is violating? I never can remeber your excuse of the moment.
