    Osama Bin Laden Dead.

    :bsflag: PLEASE. WTF did BuSh ever do to take one iota of credit for locating Bin Laden? After tucking his tail and refused to provide the requested troops to prevent Bin Laden's escape in Tora Bora, he threw in the towel and gave up the hunt in 2002, then allowed his CIA to breakup the Bin...

    Osama Bin Laden Dead.

    No. But you can bet that any criticism of Obama about this from Rush, Beck, Hannity, Malkin, Palin, Cheney, et. al. will be a ploy to steal votes. Cue the criticism from the right in 3....2....1....

    Dont you just LOVE the Obama Criminal Organization??

    You are getting the treehuggers confused with liberals. Most treehuggers are liberal, but fewer liberals are treehuggers. Having said that..... http://www.world-nuclear.org/info/inf41.html Gosh, which party was in control of the House and the Senate in mid 2007??? :rolleyes: Obama...

    Dont you just LOVE the Obama Criminal Organization??

    Amazing. One GOP senator's mere unsupported accusation that Obama's goal is to increase energy prices is turned into a "fact" that Obama is a "criminal". :rolleyes: The reason Bush was being criticized for not "making money off the oil after we invaded Iraq" is because, THAT was used as one...

    Sharia Law

    Sure you did. But thanks anyway. :D Gee, I drop by out of the blue and there's been no posts here for like 4 days. Getting slow now that Foss left? :confused: So how's life in Michigan? Counting the days before the GOP up there take all your voting rights away? They just voted-in a...

    Sharia Law

    So how was that rally? What? Didn't happen? http://www.salon.com/news/politics/war_room/2011/03/03/sharia_protest_cancelled Seems like you fell for it. This was never on the WH agenda. Another conspiricy amplified by the right-wing fringe of Fox & Friends.

    Global warming theory in chaos after report finds increased solar activity may COOL t

    Wow, so NOW you are celebrating the fact that global warming is NOT the result of increased solar output. Kinda blows a hole in your previous attempt to debunk man-made global warming in this thread, while at the same time supporting my debunking of your "theory". Self-*owned* :bowrofl:

    Top 1 percent took in 23.5 percent of total income

    My bad, I mistakenly attributed that statement to you when it actually came from the link you referenced. Which begs the question, if you don't agree with that statement, then WHY did you include it in your reply? Obsfucation? Ignorance? Looks like I have to add PROJECTION to the growing...

    Top 1 percent took in 23.5 percent of total income

    So you like it when he blows his smoke up your skirt? Got it. Shag, we're saying the same thing. The only difference is you are attempting to delegitimize static analyisis by claiming future behavior changes will have unpredictable effects, and only through dynamic analysis, where you are...

    O'Donnell Wins, Castle Loses

    She, who when I think about, makes me NOT want to touch myself.

    Top 1 percent took in 23.5 percent of total income

    Well, due to population growth and new workers entering the workforce and retirees leaving the workforce, that's not precisely true. Rather, the fraction of the working population in each quintile is constant and it is the income thresholds at the bottom and top of each quintile that changes...

    Top 1 percent took in 23.5 percent of total income

    Shag, where do I start w/ so many targets? MOVING GOALPOSTS First of all, this topic is about income disparity and growth, not class mobility. While they are related, they are NOT the same thing. Cal’s and your insistence of bringing class mobility into this discussion represents your...

    Conservatism does not equal racism. So why do many liberals assume it does?

    Maybe its because even the GOP admits they themselves are racists. :rolleyes: It is disingenuous to suggest that ALL liberals believe that ALL conservatives are racists. But to deny that ANY PARTY, especially republicans / conservatives have at least some racists elements is equally...

    Top 1 percent took in 23.5 percent of total income

    Typical conservative condecending response. I've forgotten more about statistical analysis than you'll ever know. And Kos linked to the sources of data, care to prove it false? Or shall you hide behind ad hominem attacks, dismissal and condecension like you usually do?

    DADT part 2

    So, you reject the parts of our constitution that you don't like. Got it.

    DADT part 2

    Since shag was awarded the "last word" by our mods in the other thread, I have no choice but to start a new thread to announce the latest court ruling against DADT: The verdict is in, the court rules DADT unconstitutional.

    Study shows Obamacare won't reduce healthcare costs

    Oh WOW, a Murdoch hack at a health insurance industry-friendly rag thinks ACA will cost more and send this country to hell. :sleep:

    Top 1 percent took in 23.5 percent of total income

    Again, false rhetoric unsuported by the facts (at least w/ respect to the top marginal tax rates).

    Top 1 percent took in 23.5 percent of total income

    Its pretty simple, Cal. This isn't rocket science. Those whose incomes are close enough to a threshold between 2 income brackets and happen to move across it within any given year are simply averaged in with everyone else in the new bracket for that year. Only a small fraction of people in...
