My God. Your first post was bad enough. This is epic astroturfing.

I love how a warrant awarded in secret with contents that are secret to collect data that will be kept secret is supposed to ok this type of behavior.
If the NSA is tracking everything then, yes, I can have a beef that they don't stop attacks that might originate in the US.
Otherwise why the hell do they need to track EVERYTHING.
And the president - the elected official chosen to lead the country - is so hamstrung by the NSA that he cannot stop the interceptions and order an immediate investigation.
Maybe he's too hamstrung or maybe he likes what the NSA is doing. Obama has in no way been clear enough for us to determine which one of those is true.
I just love hearing liberals complain: you ignorant fucks should vote for us because you're stupid.
I'm sure that'll convince them. Perhaps they don't support you libs because you hate and ridicule them. It's your prerogative, you can do that if you want. But if you think ridiculing people will make them want to vote your way, then who is the stupid one?
How dare you make popcorn, that's so insensitive!!
That's not what the broken window fallacy is about.
Its not about generalized government spending. It about breaking things that are fine to spur on stimulus by spending money to fix the things that were broken.
This is not the broken window fallicy. They don't have any windows to break.
It's not like they had functioning rockets and threw them out so they could fix them.
Great sentiment, well stated.
God bless you.
Yeah, because its sooo much easier to 3D print a gun than it would be to buy a real gun (that'll fire more than one shot before breaking) on the street.
Stupid useless laws are useless, we should cheer useless laws not being passed.
Add to this the fact that that NSA has resisted, at every turn, telling Congress the truth about what they do.
You can't provide oversight to a group that does not tell you what they do or how they do it.
In the long run what will make the drug companies more money. Drugs that treat the patient for a few months and then they die, or a working treatment that the patient has to receive over their entire (longer now) life?
A cure for cancer would be a gold mine for a pharmaceutical company.
Totally agree that "fair share" is a very effective political tool and almost impossible to define.
I think one of the big issues that will be coming forward due to Obamacare is that the definition if rich is going to change. Obama has always said the rich are going to "pay their fair share" for healthcare so the poor can be covered.
It's just that a lot of people who don't think they're rich at all are finding out that Obama thinks they are and he is making them pay.
Then what Obama said wasn't true. Period.
It was Obama that made the rhetorical emphasis that his statement would be true no matter what (err I mean, period).
That's what the expression - period - means when expressed at the end of a spoken sentence.
Or perhaps that word does not mean what Obama thinks it means.
Never ask two questions in a business letter. The reply will discuss the one you are least interested, and say nothing about the other.
