This guy represents the American right in the same way animal rights protesters who kill scientists at research labs represent the American left.
Can you point me towards a credible source that lists the the scientists killed at research labs by animal rights protestors?
thanks.
of compounding interest.
heh heh
I thought it was the end of my life. But then, the kid grew up, the bills got paid, the ex wife disappeared entirely from my life, and now, at 60, things did turn out ok.
I even managed to work at least 2 or 3 years of what I called "retirement" then into every decade of my life since leaving home. It would come at natural intervals for various reasons. I would spend this time pursuing my life's passion - being a full time musician. It worked out wonderfully. I've had three distinct careers this way, in addition to my music, which I still chip away at. I don't mind that I'll have to have some sort of day job for another six years. I already have over 10 years of "retirement" under my belt.
I had a Multipla back in the late 60s, and loved it. It was a quirky alternative to a VW van for this now old hippy. I revisited the brand in the 70s, when I had an 850 sedan for a while. It was a remarkable little car: very well engineered, easy to work on, extremely economical, and surprising big inside - just like the Multipla had been.
If they haven't changed their basic engineering orientation, then Fiat should do well with their return to this market. I took a look at the models they're offering in Europe, and it looks like there's quite a few interesting ones in there - even a modern Multipla. The Euro prices look kind of high, but we'll just have to wait to see what they decide to bring over and how they decide to price it.
As for guys and muscle cars? Been there, done that, paid for the gas. It ended up that the girls liked my Multipla just as much as they liked my buddy's Sport Fury.... and the "back seat" was a lot "friendlier"...
Is selling more advertising at higher price.
That is the ONLY thing that these amoral carny barkers are interested in.
There are many thousands of citizens of the countries of central america who would take issue with your assessment of Liddy as "non violent". And while we're at it let's go ahead and contrast Ayers and Liddy. Ayers didn't kill anyone. Liddy, while too cowardly to do it himself, committed actions that resulted in many people dying. Ayers did his time on the run. Liddy in a country club "prison". Ayers dedicated his life and education after the radical days of the Weathermen to improving schools. Liddy got a talk show, which he uses as a platform to spread his vile hatred.
Apples and nails.
Oh?!?
Like strutting around in a swimsuit and high heels in a beauty pageant to further one's career? Or using your teenaged, unmarried, pregnant daughter as a stage prop to further your political ambitions?
Stuff like that?
Are you lost? Or are you just so bitter and angry that nothing gives you any joy whatsoever? It's not that hard to be both concerned about Iran, and yet simultaneously happy about a wonderful event celebrating a unique American musical form... you should try it.
As pointed out, we have our own dirty laundry when it comes to the loser of an election claiming power. And who knows who won this election anyway? Sure... there are a LOT of people in Iran claiming that it was "stolen", but there's also credible evidence that the current regime actually won the popular vote. There was a pollster interviewed on NPR the other day who - in spite of severe restrictions on polling - was able to get enough data before the election to project Ahmadinejad a winner by 2:1.
Kristol has consistently proven that he's both insane and blind. Why ANYONE should listen to his counsel is an open question.
I thought it was against the law for the insane to vote....
Seems like a pretty dangerous game to be playing for political gain, if that's indeed what Pence is doing.
IF?????
The entire Republican Party knows no other strategy than just that. It is ALL they do.
IF there were ANY reasonable ones out there.
But when you allow your political party to have a junkie hate monger as its chief media representative, there's really very little reason for me to even consider you sane, let alone treating your so called "opinions" as anything of value.
Say there... could you direct me a url that documents the Obama administration's proposal to send the gitmo detainees to "Bermuda with a wad of cash"?
thanks
I understand that you and your fellow right wing bedbugs are really, really afraid of those incredibly dangerous Uyghurs. That must be who you're referring to, eh? After all, wasn't it Uyghurs who were behind 9/11!!?!?!
How do you manage to get out of bed in the morning, what with all the things you need to fear?
Was it part of her job description and was she issued appropriate safety equipment?
are suspiciously silent on this topic....
No one should be surprised that Juan Williams joined the honking goose parade. He's been increasingly incapable of concealing his bought and paid for allegiance to the Murdoch/Ailes propaganda cabal of late, to the point where his usual phoned in "analysis" has been reduced to the same talking point crib sheet that all the rest of the right wing gang is using. Why he's been allowed to simultaneously pollute NPR, and retain his laughable title of "senior political analyst" is beyond me. Never very astute, he's become tiresomely predictable to the point of being offensive to most thinking people. Cut him off and leave him to flail around with his ideological bed mates over at Fox, I say. His opinion is nothing.
