    Samsung 43" Plasma TV $298 +$19 Shipping

    I picked up the 51" version of this from BestBuy for 399. While it is nice, it ended up in our bedroom. My Living room has a large skylight so is very bright during the day. Compared to my 7 year old 42"Westinghouse, it was noticeably dark. It is a nice set though.

    If Anders Breivik is insane, are all radicals insane?

    Gonna have to call you on this. Cortez was responsible for the downfall of the Aztec's but that does not mean he hated the natives. The Aztec culture was one based on human sacrifice to their so called "gods". Cortez's conquest of the Aztecs was assisted be several other tribes who were...

    Obama Invokes Executive Privilege on Fast and Furious Documents

    This is worse then Watergate. Watergate was about a break-in and a cover up, but NOBODY WAS MURDERED. F&F has left us with a dead federal agent along with a uncounted number of bodies in Mexico. And it was done to serve a left-wing political purpose (more gun control).

    Shift on Executive Power Lets Obama Bypass Rivals

    You don't need to portray Obama as a Muslim. You just need to portray him as going to a anti-American christian church for 20 years.

    Shift on Executive Power Lets Obama Bypass Rivals

    This, and your later comments, show that you have no respect for our form of government nor any understanding of fascism. When W was president and when democrats opposed every thing he did (including blocking multiple judicial appointments; and one specifically because he was a Latino, re...

    GOP blocks President Obama's bid to eliminate Big Oil Subsidies.

    So oil companies shouldn't make 3-5% profit on something they manufacture? The reason why they make so much is they sell so much. Additionally, those "subsidies" are tax breaks that all manufacturing sector businesses get. Should we end them for everyone then? Oh, and what about a special...

    Limbaugh: Women who receive contraceptives should have to post sex vids online

    Your perpetrating a lie in this statement. This was not about "ACCESS" to birth control. Women already have this access. This is about a religious institution being forced to PAY for someones birth control for non-medical reasons.

    GOP pushing Blunt amendment: another attack on womens healthcare

    So I'm going to have to pay for some girl and some guy to be able to have sex and not only will I not be able to be part of it, I won't even be able to watch it (hey, if I'm paying for it, I might as well get something out of it). Seriously, what ever happened to personal responsibility...

    Interesting read: Net worth of all 43 Presidents from Washington to Obama

    Is this how much they had while they were president or lifetime/when they died? If post-presidency is taken into account then this is incorrect. Bill Clinton has made close to 100million in the time since he left office.

    Should states give their Presidential Delegates Proportionally?

    Lets take the state of Alaska. Its rather small, having only 720,000 people living their. Figuring the US pop is 330m, that means that Alaska has only .2% of the population. Yet having 3 votes of 535 in the electoral college gives them .6% of the influence there. The people republic of...

    John Glenn Frustrated on 50th Anniversary of Friendship 7

    In 1960, at what really was the start of the space program, when we put a man on the moon within 10 years, entitlement spending was ~25% of the federal budget. So 75% of the budget went to programs like NASA, or the military. Today entitlements account for 70% of the budget. We just don't...

    How concerned are you about class warfare in this country?

    Do you understand anything about history? First this country was not built on just mfg jobs. Agriculture played a huge factor on this nations growth through the 19th cent. When you look at the 20th century, when did we hit our mfg peak? It was at the same time when there were no other...

    Obama recess appointing Cordray

    What Republicans did was the same thing that Democrats did back in 07/08. Additionally, senseamp has also revealed himself to be a standard liberal in another way. He would rather insult those he opposes rather then debate them.

    Obama recess appointing Cordray

    And you have just proved my earlier point. With liberals, the ends ALWAYS justify the means. Just because Reps did it before does not give Obama the right to take a shit on the Constitution.

    Obama recess appointing Cordray

    Oh, and what did Reid block of Bush by keeping the Senate in session? Steve Bradbury’s appointment to head DOJ’s Office of Legal Counsel for one. To quote Reid - “I had to keep the Senate in pro forma session to block the Bradbury appointment, that necessarily meant no recess...

    Wrong. http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2011/12/15/presidential-nominations-and-withdrawal-sent-senate The 2 or the 3 recess appointments were nominated less then three weeks ago. The was no time for the Senate to Advise and Constent. What Obama has done is a abuse of power.

    Obama recess appointing Cordray

    Now here is a bit of irony. If Cordray performs any of the duties of the bureau he would be in violation of Dodd-Frank. How? Apparently the specific language in Dodd-Frank says that authorities under the Act remain with the Treasury Secretary until the Director (Cordray) is "confirmed by...

    Obama recess appointing Cordray

    Again with the hypocrisy. Reid did this exact same action during the last two years of the Bush presidency and liberals like you were all for it. Obama shows he is a authoritarian thug. Even when rules and precedent keep him from doing what he wants, he just does it anyways.

    Obama recess appointing Cordray

    You and your like are a bunch of hypocrits. When Bush did a recess appointment you guys took it as a affront to the constitution. But now that Barry does it and violates the constitution to do it (since the Senate was in session), its ok. With liberals, the ends ALWAYS justify the means.
