  1. I just slept for 11 hours, allowing me to wake up at my normal time. I feel much better now.
  2. I remember a few years back hearing about how doctors were leaving the state of WV because they couldn't afford malpractice insurance. Nice to hear how all of those sue happy fucks drove away their own healthcare.
  3. Holy fuck please rewrite this so it makes some sense, you might have better luck.
  4. I think that one of the points trying to be made here is that if the Fed can find info on you, then anyone can find info on you. Just because the Fed isn't making a target out of you, someone else still can, using the same info that can be easily found. Throw in a couple of well placed contacts, and things really coming out into the open.

  7. I didn't know there was a church of Mitsubishi
  8. Be easy as hell to drop in a fuelie 302. I'll talk to Evan about getting it moved. If you ever decide you don't want the car anymore, I've got dibs
  9. Well now, turns out someone out there gives a shit about the constitution http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8RTEI0G0&show_article=1
  10. Cobra = faster Charger = nicer, especially for daily driver duties I would suggest deciding which aspect is more important. If it were me, I'd go with the Charger, as I can't stand the feel of driving a mustang (with the exception of the '05+ mustang, I finally got to drive one and actually kind of liked it).

    I should be on a payroll, doing work for free sucks.
  12. We didn't start it. But it's growing.

    Ron Paul

    He has never voted to raise taxes. He has never voted for an unbalanced budget. He has never voted to raise congressional pay. He has never taken a government-paid junket. He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch. He voted against the Patriot Act. He voted against regulating the Internet. He voted against the Iraq war. He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program. He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year. Congressman Paul introduces numerous pieces of substantive legislation each year, probably more than any single member of Congress. Congressman, Doctor, Veteran. Ron Paul has been a Congressman for 20 years, an OB/GYN, and a Flight Surgeon in the U.S. Airforce.
  15. And here it is, before I pass out. http://www.cato.org/raidmap/ This link is to a map showing many instances (and the stories) of police raids gone wrong. This is not all inclusive, there are plenty of other events that haven't made it here, but this should give you an idea as to what could happen to anyone.
  16. Americans were granted the constitutional rights to pursue happiness, so long as it doesn't infringe upon the rights of others. That's where laws come into play, to provide guidelines and punishments for harming the rights of others. Cut and dry.
  17. First paragraph - I read news stories about once every other month about police raids going wrong, where they bust into the WRONG HOUSE (not even whats listed on the warrent) in a no-knock raid, and either getting shot at by a victim of the police, or killing someone completely uninvolved. I'll look for links after work, as I should be leaving 10 minutes ago. Second paragraph - You are badly stereotyping people there. I live in a bad area, so I'm a criminal? I smoked a joint in college, I'm a criminal? I travel to other countries, I'm a criminal? I sell my car and don't report it to the IRS, I'm a criminal? I own legally purchased firearms, I'm a criminal? And who is to say who I am "in real life?" That doesn't even make sense. Third paragraph - I honestly think you are overestimating the number of criminals out there. Increasing police power can lead to terrible things, we don't want to go down that path. Stop being so narrow minded and look at the big picture.

    And this is why I <3 Howard.
  19. http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8RSHTDG0&show_article=1 Looks like this might have mixed results, depending upon the length. If the strike is less than two weeks, it will actually benefit GM. Maybe there's something else going on here....
  20. Look at what is in TODAY'S news... http://www.newsday.com/news/local/newyork/ny-nyroc245387882sep24,0,2760679.story
  21. What I understand here, is that Tim is not a fan of due process. Well, due process is what keeps INNOCENT people out of jail. Tim, lets say I didn't like you for whatever reason. I make an anonymous phone call to the local PD, and tell them you send your kids off to school every day with drugs to peddle. Then, I call the terrorist hotline, and make up some BS about how you are a member of Al Qaida. Next thing you know, there is always someone over your shoulder. Your kids are getting harrassed constantly by the school faculty, possibly even kicked out. You are on a police list to get pulled over whenever seen and searched for contraband. Maybe the cop will plant something on you, because you are labeled as a bad guy, and they are pissed that they didn't find anything. Then, since you think due process is such a bad thing, you are held without bail, found guilty by a judge who doesn't want to spend the time convincing a jury, and locked away for a long time, or worse. All because I made two BS phone calls. This is the future you are advocating. You are the person that scares me to no end, because your reasoning doesn't involve worrying about what could happen, but rather blindly believing that the government will never use its powers for evil. I live in America, the land of the free, but if we keep going in this direction, it will be just like living in communist russia, only with elections. I'd rather have a few criminals go uncaught, then have to worry about being falsely arrested.
  22. Isn't Honda in Marysville a union shop? I thought Toyota was too, but not sure. And as for cars being cheaper without unions? I wouldn't expect them to change the prices of the cars, just the quality.
