Now I almost never agree with Diablo, but this is funny.

"Watch your spelling. The plural of penis is "congress.""

This is simply a case of the GOP that cried wolf. Maybe there is something to the allegations, and maybe there ain't. But at this point a good portion of the public is just sick and tired of hearing trumped up bull%&#t allegations all of the time.

I stumbled out of McSorley's many a time in my twenties (1990's). They only offer two kinds of beer there. McSorley's light and McSorley's Dark, and it only comes two mugs at a time. Unfortunately you can barely get in the door on a weekend anymore. 20 years ago we were always be able to get a table.

So much for small government conservatism.

Do the same thing they did with Bin Laden.

Could a pro gun person on here explain to me why they are against background checks for all gun sales. I am serious about this, because for the life of me I can't figure out why any honest law abiding person would be against this.

#19 - What a bunch of Bull&^$t. Show me some valid statistics where left leaning adults are more likely to do any of the crap you posted above.

2 - 3 lbs of crappy crackers a week! Yick!

One more schmuck who is so much smarter than everybody else. Good luck with that.

Who was the lucky guy that got sloppy 350,000ths.

#3 - Couldn't have said better any other way.

Once gas prices get to high, people will drive less, and start buying more fuel efficient vehicles. That in turn will slow demand for oil and the price will once again drop until it reaches a point when people start to drive more again. Haven't we seen this before.

Madscientist has this correct. Their is no free lunch with coal or any fossil fuel. To release the energy in coal you must free op the carbon. In this case as a carbonate, but to get the metal back the carbon has to be removed as CO2. In the end the net gain in energy is probably minimal if not negative.

#17 - I guess we will have to agree to disagree. But as a reminder, the republicans thought they had the last election in the bag, because in there eyes it was so obvious that everything Obama and the Democrats did was wrong. If they think following the same course of obstruct, obstruct, obstruct will work this time, then I believe they are in for a rude awakening.

If by 2014 the economy and the markets go south and the GOP has done nothing but obstruct, they will take the blame whether it was their fault or not. Just standing against everything that Obama and the democrats want is not enough. By standing in the way of every effort to fix the economy by the democrats makes them look petty, and they will pay for it at the ballot box again.
