— Ace A post I hoped I'd never have to publish.
But you can use this thread to sing songs about how Wonderful Obama's first term have been -- how he's solved every problem and made us all prosperous, free, and safe -- and how the next term, by gum!, will be even betterer.
I'm really glad the unemployment rate has declined from 7.8% to 7.8%! The latter indicating 7.8% of a greatly diminished employment pool, by the way.

Yet another way is to find someone in the above mentioned position and kicking them firmly in the ass; it does tend to lead to road rash problems though.
Four more years of road rash, here we come.

15 Only those in the cities will resort to cannibalism. I'm pretty sure the deer population will last 10-12 years where i live.
And then there is the feral Hog population.
Those Hogs will eat the city people, who stumble out into the countyside...and keep growing in number.

I told her to forget it.
I will support her while she goes to nursing school, if she decides to do so. I cannot see her doing this (she alredy has a Master's in library science). There are no jobs, and those that are available pay very little. It's why so many are leaving the workforce.

Remember the days when the economy was doing okay and you could leave a job you didn't like with an actual thought that you could find another job in a reasonable length of time. Now, you get the character building pleasure of remaining in a job you hate because the hope is gone.

I spent years training my daughters manners, including how to eat properly at a table, and here we have a First Lady who eats like a starving bumpkin with her elbows on the table, no pause between shoveling in food as fast as her gaping maw will accommodate it, and then shows all the class of a 13 year old with the eye rolling at someone sitting right freaking NEXT to her.
You know what, you low rent bitch, you and your grifter husband are an embarrassment to the country. At least the country in which I was raised.

From link at Drudge to Newsbusters,
CNN correspondent Jim Acosta was positively giddy while covering President Obama's inauguration parade on Monday afternoon, and didn't hold back his feelings on-air.
"You know, I feel like I should pinch myself right now, Wolf. I can't believe I have this vantage point of history in the making," Acosta gushed.

Obama has done many things during his time in office that are clearly impeachable offenses.
Obama has willfully ignored our laws. He ordered his Justice Department to no longer enforce the Defense of Marriage Act, and has consistently refused to allow States to enforce immigration law. He ignored the WARN Act just before the election. He refused to prosecute New Black Panther Party members who disenfranchised voters in Pennsylvania. He will not allow illegal immigrants married to homosexuals to be deported. And he oversaw the huge Fast and Furious Operation and subsequent cover-up, an illegal operation meant to gain support for gun control that led to the deaths of several Americans.
Obama appointed three officials to the National Labor Relations Board in January without Senate approval—even though the Senate was in pro forma session. Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution gives the President authority to appoint senior federal officials if the Senate is in recess. In this case, they were not.
He has violated Habeas Corpus by signing into law the National Defense Authorization Act, which allows the government to detain United States citizens without a trial.
Whether Obama’s actions relating to the tragedy in Benghazi, could be considered impeachable or just shameful is a matter of debate. What we do know is that our Libyan Ambassador, J. Christopher Stevens, and three other Americans are dead because “Commander in Chief” Obama did absolutely nothing to help them when they came under attack. Then, he lied about what happened to cover up his misdeed and tamp down the controversy before the election.
The Declaration of Independence states, in part:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that their Creator with certain unalienable Rights endows them that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. - That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, - That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
Yesterday, Barack Hussein Obama took the presidential oath of office for the second time. “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”
And for another four years, America will be burdened with a President who refuses to uphold the law of the land-unless we stand together as American citizens and demand a lawful leader.

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as “bad luck.”

Grandpa remembered the Depression years. And told me his experiences.
Where he was, they started out hunting deer when times first got hard. By the time of Pearl Harbor, they were down to squirrels, because every last damn deer had been shot out by desperate people trying to put meat on the table. That purported 1930s "recovery" under FDR? Didn't reach back up the holler.
He got to be a seriously good shot, hunting squirrels at a time when ammo was expensive and scarce relative to the family budget.
Those days are likely to come again. Except now there are many many many more people in America now as opposed to then. With a lot more guns. We'll find out what people hunt when the squirrels have also all been shot out. Long pig, most likely.

This is not necessarily a bad thing. Though I feel for the laid off troops, I can think of no better use for them at the moment, then to be brought back to the United States, and fired in this miserable economy, and thereby adding to the chorus of people who are not in a good mood regarding the Jug eared fuck.

I had the same experience at a get together of my wife's rather extended family, including lots and lots of GOBs. Anyway, I was chatting with one of the real oldtimers, and he sneered at the idea that what we have now is hard times. He really did have to go out in the woods as a boy and shoot the groceries.

Here's the thing of it. The New York Times has an article up on what the Republicans are doing during the inauguration, and it's a series of examples like this:
Russ Schriefer, one of Mr. Romney’s top strategists on his most recent presidential bid, left on Thursday for “four or five days of skiing” in Davos, Switzerland. His wife, a journalist, was already headed there for a conference, and he decided to tag along. Though the couple hosted an inauguration party four years ago for out-of-town friends, Mr. Schriefer said that this time, “the thrill is gone.”
Not everyone has to wear a hair-shirt, but the tales of ski trips and Vegas steakhouse crawls show a core problem with the Republican leadership: losing doesn't really hurt them, so the fear of losing doesn't motivate them, so they keep on losing.

Congressional leaders have given President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden gifts, including flags that flew over the Capitol, to celebrate their inauguration. The gifts came at the conclusion of a luncheon with the Obamas and Bidens at the Capitol.
House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio presented the flags and said he hoped the inauguration would inspire more unity among lawmakers in Obama's second term.
GOP Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee presented photos of the inaugural event to the pair. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia presented vases etched with images of the White House.
And the salted head of their former Khan, Mitt Romney....

You don't want to use a bone saw on deer.
I imagine it's the sausage making equipment. A small electric grinder (I have a hand crank grinder, but fuck that) and smoker for making 20 lbs at a time isn't that expensive. I have both, mostly it's just extremely time consuming. As in an all day affair.
But if you're going to be making sausage in quantity, the costs go up very fast.

Republican Senator John Thune, who was shown walking onto the inaugural platform with Secretary of State Nominee Senator John Kerry, attended several inauguration activities.
"Inaugurals are always times of new beginnings, fresh starts if you will, and I hope this presents that opportunity for us. The President, if he will reach out to Republicans on Capitol Hill, and Democrats for that matter, I think we can do some good things together," Thune said.
As one of the top-ranking Republicans in the Senate, Thune was also at the inaugural luncheon and he stressed the importance of both parties coming together for the swearing-in of a president.
Thune also hopes now that the president is not up for re-election he will be willing to work with Republicans and show leadership on some of the tough issues facing the country.
John Thune confirmed for idiot. Also confirmed for going steady with John Kerry.

We aren't going to get to make any arguments to the American people. The Media will censor any speech of which they do not approve.
They control all the major access to the public. Being right (as in correct) does you no good if you aren't permitted to get the word out.

What they won was a cultural election. They "beat the other guys". They care very little what Obama's all about. They care more about a cultural victory over an enemy they've been propagandized to hate.
And they've projected that onto us. They think we have no concern whatsoever about the specifics of the Obama presidency, the debt especially.
They think that we, like them, only oppose him because we're on the other team.
And we're on the other team because we're rich plutocrats.
Or poor rednecks.
Or whatever stupid stereotype fits their schizophrenic views.
Or that we're just racist. Because in their mind there are no issues, there are only teams. Since they like Obama because of his race, we must hate him because of his race.

I think you "get" this point.
I often point out that prior to the development of Film, Actors were considered to be the utter trash of the community, fit for little more than associating with drunk bums, prostitutes, gamblers and thieves. The sort of people who went into acting were usually of low moral character, and habitually pursuing debauchery in all it's forms. Their audience were relatively small, limited to what could be fit into a theater, and their revenues were likewise small.
With the invention of film, suddenly they could appeal to much larger audiences, and as a result, they could receive much greater compensation. This gave them the opportunity to "preach" at the audiences with their "art", and it gave them the financial means to support political ideas which they favored.
They were still the same shitty gutter-trash type of people, but now they had the means to influence others which they did not have before. We need to return them to pauperism and sever them from their ability to finance lifestyles and politicians who are against the best interests of our nation.

No thanks. I haven't watched the tee vee all day, excepting turning on The Five. They had a live feed of TFG chewing gum, while watching the parade. Gutfeld made an appropriately snarky comment, then I turned it off.

With all due respect, this is merely the worst sort of credentialism. And, when all is said and done, where is she going to find a job in her field? Public libraries, college libraries, school libraries? Every last one of them financed by the taxpayers' dollars, and infested with union drones, who will cling to their sinecures until they reach mandatory retirement...if the government paychecks keep coming. When the various levels of government hit the financial wall, what services are going to be cut first?
Already, in England, seniors are stealing library books to burn in their fireplaces for heat, because insane government energy policies are putting them into fuel poverty. Look for it to happen in the USA, too, seeing as Woks With Dogs has just embraced Gerbil Worming in his coronation speech.

It's an emotional reaction. A lot of people were/are in love with the idea of a "Black President", just so that they can glory in the thrill of demonstrating to people how "un-racist" they are. They are simply in love with the idea of a "black" president.
A long time ago, I said the Republicans should have done this first. It would have been a grand slam home run. I KNEW that a bunch of people would support someone just because they were black. If only we had gotten out in front and done this first, we, and the nation, would now be reaping the reward of people doing the right thing, even if it was for a stupid reason.

I think we would all benefit if their sources of income took a serious hit. Real work would be good for them. (and it would be good for us if they were kept busy working instead of politicking.)
Copyright law nowadays is just insane. At the time the Constitution was written, copyrights and patents were both 20 years. Patents are for things which are actually useful and benefit mankind, yet they are only protected for 14 years. Copyrights are good for 80 now, and can be transferred to heirs after people have died!!!

Of course, they've gone post-racial to the condescending paternalistic hipster racist. So there's that.
A long time ago, I said the Republicans should have done this first.
It was supposed to be Powell, especially in 1996. As much of a cipher as he was and as much as a dick as he is now, he wouldn't have been an ambitious and ideological dick.

Ronald Reagan was 30 years in the making. He spent years gaining experience as a governor and decades debating anyone who would go against him.
After the way the Republican Party was led over the past 15 years (favoring incumbents, even when it came to Specter vs. Toomey, caving in on fights over fiscal discipline), it shouldn't be a surprise that there weren't many Reagans around in 2008 or 2012.

It's may be tactless to point this out on this sacred day, but they - white liberals - didn't do much bad to Boulder or Malibu or Marin County or Williamsberg in NYC or the whole state of Vermont.
I understand that even the white parts of ultra-leftie Norway and Sweden remain quite livable.
A whole 'nother demographic ruined Detroit, Gary, Camden, Birmingham, Rhodesia.
To the point that white liberals did anything to Detroit, it was to invite in and, worse, to enfranchise said demographic, that 'nother demographic.

Easy. Don't publish your findings.
Do you like your TSP/IP protocol?
Send a check to the AMS.
Or rather, since you're always saying how intelligent you are,
I am not. I am a third rate mathematician.
Which, I guess, is praising by faint damnation.
you should be able to come up with multiple ways to monetize your findings.
That would take time away from the actual findings. We live in an age of specialization. I can't do everything myself. So I have to do the work and it gets stolen by others to monetize it.
Or maybe, just maybe you could have chosen a more remunerative field than mathematics.
Could have, but then some other mathematician will be doing the hard work and getting screwed. Also, being a public school graduate whose parents never went to college, I wasn't entirely aware of the options available to me, so I just rode the winds of genius. Little did I know we don't grow scientists, we import them.
How your dissatisfaction with your lot in life, which after all is the sum total of all the choices you've made, justifies stealing someone else's property eludes my understanding.
But it's not your property. You stand on the shoulders of giants. Wearing golf shoes.

That's it. Any criticism of him is labeled as "Racist." That's why he's got the GOP so terrified to raise a word against him. Nowadays, racism is the unforgivable sin.
I tell people to look beyond skin color. If he was a white guy, everyone could admit that he is a total clusterfuck. Hell, he wouldn't have even been able to get elected as Senator in Illinois, let alone elected President. He is a incompetent, inexperienced nobody with zero reasons to taken seriously, but because he's considered to be "black", you aren't allowed to point this out on Television.
Powell shot himself in the foot in 1996 when he came out as "Pro-Choice." That announcement made it impossible for him to win a primary as a Republican. In retrospect, I am glad the traitor bastard fucked himself over with that announcement.

This isn't American's Country in progressives eyes, rather it's their country and they are going to try their hardest to destroy our culture and remake it into something we will no longer recognize.

Why are patents only good for 14 years? I will argue that something which is useful to all of society in perpetuity ought to be at least as well protected as something which is trivial or entertaining to a society.
I can live with Patents and Copyrights being equal, just as they were when our constitution started. What I cannot stand is the fact that left wing assholes keep using and abusing copyright protection to finance themselves forever.

I believe that copyrights should be protected, but not for any longer than should a patent be protected. Copyrights and Patents should have at the least, equal protection.
That being said, I see no moral reason to protect copyrights for people who want to steal money from me by helping to elect Socialist politicians. In this case, it ceases being a matter of what their rights are, and becomes a matter of what kind of weapon can I use against them in this war?

I don't understand why time matters? If someone creates intellectual property, why should there be a clock running on how long they can own it?
>>>
I'm not being snarky. I truly don't understand this perspective. It does not seem conservative to me.
You cannot own by God that which you cannot hold. As such ideas can't be owned as a matter of right by God. You have no "right" to own an idea as a matter of fact you are given by nature to copy good ideas that you see, that is in fact how human progress occurs. The concept of a limited statutory ownership thereby allowing profits from for the purposes of encouraging new works is a total legal fabrication of modern times.
Under your idea the Holy Bible would still be "owned" by the Catholic Church reproductions of which they would control. Ford would be paying royalties to the family of the inventor of the wheel for every car sold.
The clock is supposed to give you time to make money off of a good idea or artistic work, whereby man's right to copy is abridged for a time, after which the idea passes to the public and joins the combined works of man from the Epic of Gilgamesh to Paradise Lost, representing mankind's progress of thought, another block for others to stand upon.
We all have good ideas built upon the blocks that we got from older generations. After a time, it is our responsibility to turn our ideas over so that others may build upon them.

The RC Church would only own the Vulgate, if anything. There were hundreds of Greek-language versions around before St. Jerome translated some of them into Latin.
And Henry Ford invented the assembly line, not the car. Gottlieb Daimler is generally credited with the invention of the car.

the idea of copyright unto eternity is actually rather new
The concept was to create a period of guaranteed monopoly of commerce, it really was Disney that altered the concept.
I have a hard time understanding why there should be a market for selling copyrights for the sole purpose of lawsuit mania when the originator has long passed, see Birthday, Happy.
I am not an IP pirate and I do know that real time piracy is murder on gaming companies etc etc I pay my way of course when Big law is making money on wobbly lawsuits for the RIAA against granny whose kid downloaded some Ministry songs....
I am slowly gettting apathetic about the whole concept Horryweird has soured me on enforcing their ability to enslave me no offense.

Since arguably the gospels were written by the founders of the church, they would own the whole NT.
>>>And Henry Ford invented the assembly line, not the car. Gottlieb Daimler is generally credited with the invention of the car.
My point wasn't that Ford invented the Automobile, it's that he didn't invent any part of the automobile and would have to pay royalty to forge steel, a royalty to use wheels in his car, a royalty to use the otto cycle in his engine, a royalty to use breaks, (who would in turn be paying a royalty to Newton's family for use of the laws of heating, cooling, Amonton's laws of friction, Coulumbs laws of friction et al) no one would ever invent anything new, because to do so would use old knowledge which would mean layer after layer after layer of royalties.
Every major written work and major derivative. What if by copyright printed versions of The Federalist, Two Treatises of Government, Aristotle's Politics, could be placed under controlled distribution this day using copyright? They would be owned by elites never printed and we the rubes would never know we could be free.

I don't know Ringo. I just mentioned Hammerfall in the forum and a the song I mentioned turned up in a quote in his next book, so I'm claiming credit.
Ring of Fire would be good. The Belisarious books he Flint co-wrote with Weber would be awesome.

That's where I'm at. I am in support of the concept and original implementation of copyright as well as disgusted at how it's become so twisted and abused. Unfortunately, discussions about copyright general devolve into accusations of thievery and other ad hominems so I tend to simply avoid them.

She's vulgar, and stridently insensitive to the sensibilities of a large segments of middle America, and obviously puts the lie to SCOAMF "is in the corner for the middle class", or as the Obamas like to say "working class families" a phrase that FLOTUS clearly isn't even remotely familiar with.
