i'd say it would have made more sense the other way round,
like how most other people who write on rightwingnews seem to do.

Anyhow, i hope this means more interesting texts, while your youtube chan is of the same level as your writings, i prefer the writings.
I'm more comfortable with reading. :)

anyhow, congratulations DA

"In fact the media ignore Left Wing talk radio hosts who think Limbaugh should be executed for treason or liken him to Adolf Hitler."
That's not odd, everyone ignores left wing talkradio as far as i'm aware. ;)

He'll really be head of IRS?
That's almost as horrible as when we had a minister of budget who was proud she could add and multiply. :/

There is at least one thing Bush accomplished:
he has kept the US a safe place since 9/11.

I doubt Obama will be able to do the same with a quick closure of Guantanamo, a quick withdraw from Iraq, his issues with international wiretapping and his no-precondition policy.

All it takes to become painfully clear what Bush did offer is a new strike in the US.
But no doubt the leftist loonies would blame Bush for it...

Good point.

I doubt many people can give 5 names right away (except for the Swedes themselves and close neighbours), but i don't get what point you're trying to make with it.

Concerning hard-drives: the industry standard is that if you overwrite everything 7 times, the stuff that was on it before isn't retrievable any longer.
There is software that does it for you. Might come in handy, especially since people don't like buying smashed hard drives. ;)

That's only the tip of the iceberg.
There is an endless list of things getting taxed more so you wouldn't use them. (or at least less)

Recently, i stumbled again on the interview with Friedman on the international drug forum.
part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyystXOfDqo
part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37-zCyI6rmk&fe...
part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZNeZUROVM0&fe...

why recalling this specific one?
watch part 2. 4m35s till 5m45s.
it's exactly what's happening today with those taxes on soda, prohibitions on fastfood restaurants in some city areas (of a city which i've forgotten)

first something about "this is a goodbye message from the iraqi people".
at second throw something in the line of: "this is for all the orphans you created".

DA, maybe replace this vid with the bbc version (they are as silly to repeat the throw 3 ties, but...), they also include a short part of the questions afterwards. Io, he handled the shoe debacle very well there. :)

the romans knew it over 2000 years ago: panem et circenses.
that's how you keep most people nice and quiet while extorting them.
