I wonder if he knows the guy already resigned and is just angry that Obama hasn't nominated a replacement so he could fillibuster it.

A mere slip of the tongue. He'll take care of it when he revises and extends his remarks.

Rubio got caught grandstanding without facts and now looks like a dope.

Obama should announce, in an act of bipartisanship, he's firing the nonexistent commissioner.

What an idiot of a President we must have...asking for the resignation of a non-existent person...

"Are they all from the same basic area? Can it be a regional problem and not a religion one?"

It could be, but that does not appear to be the case. Asia, Africa, Europe, North America, Australia. Hell of a big region.

"See, America is mostly Christian, but our bombing other nations has nothing to do with being Christian. Bet those people in those countries however are claiming it does for the same reasons you blame their faith."

Absurd...It blamed on their faith, because they attribute it to their faith.

Should be *do with ourselves* not "to with ourselves".

Sorry...

I think we decided people cant not own other people. We certainly should be able to own ourselves and to with ourselves what we please as long as it doesnt infringe on the rights of others in more than an abstract way.

"Self-ownership (or sovereignty of the individual, individual sovereignty or individual autonomy) is the concept of property in one's own person, expressed as the moral or natural right of a person to have bodily integrity, and be the exclusive controller of his own body and life. According to G. Cohen, the concept of self-ownership is that "each person enjoys, over himself and his powers, full and exclusive rights of control and use, and therefore owes no service or product to anyone else that he has not contracted to supply."

It's good to see "libertarians" admitting they are propertarians. Most libertarians won't do that, even though it's a logical consequence of their views.

In my opinion without property rights all other rights are relatively meaningless.

Capitalism is a bogus premise? Can you point me to one that has worked better in practise, not in theory?

Then we are our own.

If we don't belong to ourselves who do we belong to?

Libertarian philosophy in their own words:

Propertarianism is the novel idea that all human rights under all ideologies, all values in all moral senses, all ethical codes in all cultures, all emotional desires and responses in all humans, and all cognition for the pursuit of action, can be reduced to and articulated as questions of property and property rights.

This is a pretty fair and accurate description of my views.

After all ultimately aren't WE our OWN property...

Yeah, I dunno why I try Donner.

You don't know why you try to put lipstick on a pig? It's a legitimate question which only you have the answer to.

"Back in September 2009, no doubt a majority of Americans probably believed that if this full retard spent $5 trillion in deficit money over the next four years, the economy would be doing better than it is.
But it isn't."

Yes it is.

This response makes no sense. Are you suggesting the economy is doing better than it is?
