Man you make me laugh sometimes. Do you think America exists in a vacuum or something? Ignore the rest of the world and let us all run free without free market! The government should be invisible and never interfere with anyone! They should only provide law enforcement for laws that I agree with and only defend the nation against direct attacks purely with volunteer forces! Otherwise they should get the hell out of our way and let us have our free market! Is that the Libertarian ideal country or am I doing it wrong?

Hey that's weird. Drudge hasn't updated with the Palin story yet. I guess he's just busy and hasn't seen it yet. I'm sure if I submitted it in that tip section he has it would be up pronto in big bold red letters...

And they're not done yet, the early voting that starts soon also includes the ability to register and vote at the same time!

I've been a 2K guy since the Dreamcast days. They simply make better games than EA. If NFL2K was still around, I'd be buying it instead of Madden, though I've admittedly been having a lot of fun with Madden '09.
And to segue this into something that's vaguely on-topic:

It's quite strange, but I think O'Reilly actually likes Obama, to the extent that I think he may be a closeted Obama voter this year. He wrote a rather glowing piece on Obama on his website after they had that sit-down interview. Don't expect me to understand it. O'Reilly's an odd cookie.

Probably old, but McCain denys Obama is an Arab, and shouldn't be feared as president

Seriously, I think this is the worst part about this whole thing. I imagine it was a pretty well paying job and by all accounts, he seemed like he was doing a standup job (at least the accounts I've read anyways...). She should personally apologize to the man.
This is pretty much shameless.
He was saying that this was the last thing he wanted (for this stuff to go public the way it did) and that he tried to "protect" her from this. Wow.

You will see a lot of Republicans turn on Mccain if he loses. O'Reilly just sees the handwriting on the wall and wants to get the jump on them. "I always knew blah blah blah..."

Thanks for the reply, Jay. I'd say that American democracy just isn't for you, but it's all you've got.

Huh? "Ignoring the rest of the world" =! diplomacy and free trade with all, entangling alliances with none, aggressive wars with none.
A government that is mostly invisible in our daily lives sounds pretty good.
They should provide law enforcement but the legal codes do need some adjustment, certainly, unless you think it's appropriate for people to be prosecuted for victimless crimes.
They should not provide defense for other nations, and "national defense" does not include aggressive war. And yes, the military should not consist of people that did not want to serve in the military; an all-volunteer force is what we have now and we should never, ever return to using slave soldiers under any circumstances.
That sounds pretty ideal, sure.
Especially compared to Woodrow Wilson's style of governance, which is what I was criticizing.
Things like jailing people for government criticism. And making people fight in WWI via conscription. And getting us into the mess in the first place.
The first two paragraphs of the man's Wikipedia page reads like a list of terrible grievances.

To be fair JayDub I don't really know why they continue to go at you. I might not agree with you at all but at least you are relatively consistent with your views. That's pretty much all you can ask for in forum discussions.

It also makes it a lot easier to justify any future criticism. "I voted for this guy! I can't believe he's doing [whatever]!"Cheebs said:

Yeah he uses a hyperbole a lot but so do some of the guys on the left. He's always fairly reasonable though (argument wise I mean) and rarely makes it personal within the confines of the argument at least.

Bill Clinton has that same ability. He could walk into a room filled with people who hate him and win them all over before the end of the night.

Finally something I agree with you about. Murdering all those civilians wasn't necessary to demonstrate the power of the atom bomb. There was no justification for Hiroshima and Nagasaki as far as I am concerned. And I also agree with you that it is only considered "terrorism" when it happens to the so-called "good-guys". America has funded militant radical groups in attempts to overthrow the governments of nations they don't approve of on countless occasions and if that isn't terrorism or at least supporting terrorism then I don't know what is.
