I mean, I did. Right on this very page. Stay special, you.

And clearly, you discarded my response because yours was in some magical way vastly superior.

In other words thank you for no rebuttal whatsoever.

I will go ahead and repeat what I said earlier:

Amping up the regressive nature of the most regressive taxation system in the world is not even close to the same as "fiscal accountability". I would suggest you try again but you haven't really tried once.

In other words, your malarkey about the tea party being somehow in pursuit of "fiscal accountability" is malarkey at best. Your party wants only to bring more wealth to their favored class, which is frankly astonishing as it is only a further acceleration of where the vast overwhelming majority of this country's wealth already accumulates.

What if it is worthy of utter disdain?

How can you conclude that without reading it? Just because you assume (sans fact, as per your most favored m.o.) that communism is TEH EEEEVIL, doesn't mean that the book written by Marx on the matter is actually connected to any of your assumptions on the matter.

What did you want to gain from it, and why are you not gaining it?

I wanted some insight into the human condition

This seems counter to your oft-repeated bits about people "scaling" (or not). Why would you read the writings of one man - who mind you was well past dead long before Lenin lead the Soviets in a strange contortion (and eventual complete discard) of his theories - and pretend that it represents accurately the beliefs of vastly more people? Even more so, why would you be so arrogant to fake the reading to begin with?

What I got was the precursor to BHO's 2012 campaign against Romney.

I'm not sure what you could possibly be reading that would resemble the re-election of the country's most conservative executive in history over a waffling man who wrote the bill that was very much the model of the bill whose nickname bears the name of the former.

Or... and this may sound zany but hear me out. Maybe 51% of people did a risk/benefit analysis and decided that giving someone there password was actually beneficial for them.

Not possible. Only people who use devices in exactly the same manner as that proscribed by a /. nerd can be beneficial. (No wireless, less space than a Nomad...)

None of those complaints addressed the original claims: commercial free stations that started playing commercials.

And while the trucking company ads can get annoying, I'd be willing to bet a huge proportion of truckers have Sirus and/or XM in the cab (having been one myself).

Other than the rebroadcasted major market channels KIIS and Z100 on channels 11 and 12, what music channels are playing commercials?

Channel 76 and below (except 11/12) are all still commercial free. I can't speak for 77-79 (kids), and some of the 140+ Latino channels, but...

What music channels, exactly, are playing commercials on XM?

Stop screwing up the nerdrage with pointless facts.

When you approach something with hatred and disdain you will almost certainly walk away from it the same.

What did you want to gain from it, and why are you not gaining it? The answer to the latter is in your mirror. The answer to the former I'm not sure even you know.
