Today Billie Jo McAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie bridge
Pretty sure Billie Joe is supposed to be a guy in that one.
Yeah, but what did he throw?!?
Abortion wasn't legal back then. (Not that throwing babies off a bridge was)

The President doesn't have a birth certificate problem. His Hawaii birth certificate, which is a far better one than the one I got from Paterson, NJ has been shown. It's just something that those who can not accept him as a valid American President will accept. And something that to date has never been asked of a white President-elect. So yeah, an extra special thumbs down goes to Donald Trump for becoming the Birther's new flagship admiral. As if the way the man eats pizza wasn't unforgivable enough.Progressive tax rates with strong redistributive / anti inequality measures, responsible and representative government, rule of law, strong human rights.Hawkshaw for President.I, like your current president, have a birth certificate problem :) I'm a canuck.
But have we seen his college records hmm? HMmmmmm? What about his tax records where he is registered as an offshore entity and not a citizen at all?11?
Oh wait, wrong candidate. :P
I am aware that it is a manufactured scandal, I was joking.
I think the best way to be sure is to send troops into Canada to do some "nation building".
I am glad people piled onto that whole "pagan matriarchy" meme before it went too far. I was all like "pre-Christian Rome was a matriarchy?!" And China for that matter.

It's okay, Bob. Despite Hitdice and Lazar X, I can tell when you're joking.
I am glad people piled onto that whole "pagan matriarchy" meme before it went too far. I was all like "pre-Christian Rome was a matriarchy?!" And China for that matter.I seem to recall statements from my female anthropology professor in college that most so called primitive matriarchal societies just looked like that to the west because they had a more even distribution of power and even then most were 'matriarchies' because the women did all the work and made all the day to day decisions so society didn't collapse while the men sat around metabolizing chemicals for recreational value and waiting for something to kill.
There are matrilineal, matrilocal societies, though vanishingly rare. They're also, arguably, worse for the men than our historically patriarchal western society is for women.
I could have sworn I asked for advice on anthropological reading materials earlier in this thread.
Figures it takes a Dark Light Hitomi or Andrew R. to bring you guys all running back yelling about matriarchies and what not...

See, I don't read as much as listen to/watch lectures.
Anyway, seeing as how there are right-wingers to argue with and the liberal contingent is deigning to post in here again:
Any of you guys know anything about 350?

Oh ick.
Ick about 350 or about Tar Sands?
I don't really follow the environmental movement, but my NH comrades think this might be big.
I meant ick about the tar sands.
Was that really confusing to people? Have I not made my political leanings known here previously?
A quick anecdote: my mother worked with the state when there was a TOTALLY serious proposal to create a pipeline from the great lakes to the southwest to channel fresh water there. Like, if you want water, don't live in the desert you t***s!

Who knows? Maybe 350 are stooges of the plutocracy? Maybe Citizen Meatrace has had bad experiences with them in the past? Maybe they receive their funding from green capitalist fronts? Maybe they are secretly conducting experiments on Pygmies? Maybe one of their organizers stole your girlfriend?
"Oh ick" could mean a lot of things.
Quiet, goblin. ;)
Related, but tangental:
The woman responsible for women's equal rights in Japan died Sunday.
That's an interesting article. It made me want to go find communist propaganda that my Japanese comrades did on the woman question, but, nah, I'll let it go.

If you showed me a picture of George W. Bush kissing a baby, and I said "oh that a!%~!+@" would you assume I knew the baby personally?

It would depend somewhat on exactly where he was kissing the baby.

Listen you curmudgeonly troll: Do you know anything about 350 or not?!?
I know nothing about 350, other than what was on the splash page of the link you posted. They appear to be anti tar sands pipeline. So am I.
P.S. I'd rather be a troll than a goblin!

Got to love Dugout Dug, I hope he rots with Churchill. Nimitz should have been in overall command of South East Asia.

Hey, you leave our pipelines alone. Hippies.
Punching all these pipelines through is a big gamble for our government. I think they are hoping that they'll be able to paper over their economic / fiscal problems with oil money. They've certainly bet the farm on tar sands development and burned a lot of goodwill doing it.
I don't think it is the most responsible policy, but on this side of the border, they won their majority running on these types of policies, so, that's how she goes. Outside of the crown's duty to consult with the first nations, they got the 'will of the people' with their election. We will see how they fare next election.

Don't look at me i was too busy scolding them for racism to care about matriarchy

No, you were imagining racism.
If there's a bunch of black people in my neighborhood, and I say that I live in a (predominantly) black neighborhood, that's not racism it's a description...right?So when 99% of people angry about cultural marxism are white...and male...simply describing that trend isn't racism.
Similarly (to blend with another thread) saying that X% of criminals are minorities isn't racist (assuming it's true), but saying that they're criminal PURELY BECAUSE of their race...that's racist.
This isn't rocket surgery mang.

When I lived in Arizona, as a wee lad, 'Apache Junction' was sand. Sand and more sand, and way over there, if you squinted really hard, yes, there was more sand.
Now there's these walled communities everywhere with lush lawns, all requiring ridiculous amounts of water to maintain, resulting in water shortages and water rationing and people constantly out there on 'do not water' days watering their darn lawns. Unfrigginbelievable.
There's like six states fighting tooth and nail over the water coming over the Hoover Dam, and the current state of this country is such that we will *never* see a congress with the political will to do an infrastructure project of that magnitude again, because it (gasp, shudder) costs money (and doesn't line the pockets of any defense contractors), so there will always be more people, and there will always be less water.
But gosh, those big synchronized water fountain shows in Vegas sure are purty! :/
'The surest evidence that there is intelligent life in the universe is that it hasn't come to visit us.'
I live on the second driest continent in the world (Antartica is the first). The costal edge is wet and the tropical north is wet, other than that everything else is "dryer than a dead dingos donga" .
Environmental terrorists (read cotton farmers) have killed the Darling river by stealing all the water from it.
The Snowy river Hydro scheme and irrigation have killed the Murray River. The introduction of European carp has messed the river up even more.
There have been all sorts of crazy schemes to get water into the red centre.... Towing and shipping icebergs from Antarctica, piping rivers the other way over the Great Dividing Range, Cloud seeding and so on.
It has been estimated with the amount of sun and wind we get with 10 years investment and construction we could be entirely self sufficient in power generation. That's not including geothermal and tidal power.
If we could do that then desalination may become feasible.
But like you guys it requires the government to think long term and spend money on stuff we can use.... That and the Coal and Gas industries are f!@&ers that ruin stuff for us.

After watching this video, I've become deeply concerned about the state of things here in America. What can I do?
If you believe Police are corrupt thugs instead of public servants and elected officials are despots who govern the many irrespective of their consent you are a cultural marxist...
Holy s&@&, I'm a cultural marxist. Hold on...am I a cultural marxist because I'm right, Or because I'm Wrong?

I know they'd be more popular with people from Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island if their map of New England showed the proper number of states. :P
Fighting Cultural Tyranny
I had a comrade from Australia whose parents weren't allowed to name her what they wanted. They were immigrants from the Canary Islands and wanted to name their daughter Anamaria, but, so the story goes, the Australian authorities wouldn't accept a Spanish name and they hated the way Ann Marie sounded, so they opted for Rosemary.
She was pretty hawt.

That's weird because you can name your child anything as long as it is not offensive or will cause the child harm.
When was this and what state - it wouldn't suprise me if it was Queensland up to the early 1980's.
I haven't seen her in, oh, a decade or so, so I don't remember where she hailed from, but she was my around my age, so, mid-'70s?
But gosh, those big synchronized water fountain shows in Vegas sure are purty! :/

I'm still waiting for someone to design a water fountain in Las Vegas that sprays it up so high that none of it comes back down.
Hey, you leave our pipelines alone. Hippies.
We're coming to getcha, Bob! We have ways of making you pronounce the letter "U".
You can easily be both.And how!
Well, hello, Soren! I haven't seen you in a while. Nor, Fiendish Wilhelm either, I'm afraid. :(
Now we see the violence inherent in the system... revolution... er... whatever.
Pfft.
There's violence everywhere, even the Water Department.
