We are living under a Nazi (NAtional soZIalistiche) regime. The Legal system "experts" and most of the public are dead wrong about the correct meaning of Article II "Natural born citizen."

44 This just happened, about 11:30 this morning. I was doing an hour's prayer vigil I with 40 Days for Life in front of a mixed use building that houses an abortion clinic. There are apartments in the building' supper floors; it's a weird setup. When my hour was over, a 20-something young lady walked out of the building and asked if "it's even legal" to have an abortion clinic in a residential/business building. We chatted for a few minutes. She had 4 or 5 piercings in her face and tats all up her neck. She had just moved into the building and was disgusted that the landlord didn't disclose when she signed the lease. She may come down and protest with us, and said she's going to talk to the building owner.

85 GOP in Congress should say:

We're not passing a fucking thing except baseline CRs and small Debt Limit increases until the end of Obama's term unless Obamacare is repealed.  No new laws, no authorizations, and we'll filibuster every single nominee.  We aren't even going to TALK unless repeal of Obamacare is on the table.

Instead, we will subpoena every last document and every last official from the bottom up, and put them under oath about how the multitude of ways they are oppressing the American people.

And when the Dems want to talk instead of insisting we destroy this country for our children and grandchildren, we'll, maybe we can see about letting Mr. Obama not be a lame duck.

---

But they won't, because they are pussies.  There is nothing objectionable in that plan whatsoever. It puts full responsibility on the Dems and yet still puts pressure on them.

That's why they won't do it, and that's why most of them don't deserve to be there.

99 Presumably, it would have been destroyed with the One Ring. At the very least, it would have become just a plain ring with no power. There's quite a few days between the death(?) of the Witch King and the destruction of the One Ring. It's should have drawn all kinds of evil to itself.

117 A young man is captured by pirates and is persuaded to join the crew rather than walk the plank. After a few weeks at sea the captain speaks to the man and asks him how he is getting on. The man replies that on the whole he is enjoying things - the rum-soaked drinking binges, the plundering, etc - but there was one thing missing.

"What's that?" asks the captain.
"Well, there are no women" replies the man.

"Arrr" says the captain "Follow me!" The man follows the captain to what appears to be a barrel, on top of the barrel stands a coconut with a face drawn on and a few strands of wispy straw for hair. On the barrel is a crude outline of a woman's body and between the legs is a bung hole. "We calls her Carmen," says the captain, "and you may take her as you will". The man explains that he was unlikely to make use of her and goes on his way.

However, as the months go by with no respite, Carmen appears more and more attractive to the young man. Finally he can resist her no longer and the man has his wicked way with Carmen the rum barrel. To his amazement the experience is far more satisfying than he could ever have imagined!

The next day the captain greets him again. "How did you get on with Carmen then, lad?" he asks eagerly. The man replies "Rather better than I thought... actually, it was rather good!"

"Good," says the captain, a great beaming smile splitting his black-bearded face. "It's your turn in the barrel tomorrow!"

Realistically?  (for a given value of "realistically", since we're talking about a fantasy story)  The remains probably would have been burned, and a bunch of rocks piled on top of the melted metal bits afterwards.  The Armies of the West would have been rather concerned about the possibility of someone getting corrupted by the remains even without taking the ring into consideration.

 

Unrealistically...

240 122. It was another of the Republican Leadership national AND state siding with the "electable" incumbent vs. the former congressman. The Republican Party leadership mounted forces pro-McCain, propagandizing the deal JD Hayworth had made benefiting AZ Indian Reservation Casinos. AS IF that could ever out weigh the corruption that McCain begets everywhere he sows: his daughter, Keating Five financial fraud devastating the savings and loan financial business, NAFTA, anti-free-speech campaign finance COMPREHENSIVE REFORM PKG, comprehensive immigration reform for amnesty pkg, comprehensive reform prohibiting over the counter sales w/o Dr. Obamacide Rx pkg, comprehensive immigration reform for amnesty II pkg, ... Regardless of whom McCain directs the derogatory "wacko birds" to target, simply slandering all of the innocent children mothers and fathers outside of Waco at Mt. Carmen, TX illustrates exactly what McCain would like to see happen to his political opposition. Even there, it was before 9/11/01 and the Patriot Act, under the order of "Because I Could" Bill Clinton and Janet Reno. As if the media was more credible then than now? Refusing to allow Americans their constitutional rights and legal counsel with protection under THE Law of the Land, McCain would order the extermination via explosives, tanks, armaments and fire of "wacko bird" constitutional conservatives, AFTER Sen. "No torture!" tortures the community nonstop for weeks under seige, bombarded by blaring non-stop evil noise of permeating destruction. And of course, the media would be there promoting McCain's version, that the victims ALL DESERVE to burn to death, having tried his patience, having refused to submit to authoritarianism, the victims were executed without trial by jury. Thing is, when you fall in Alinsky line, you're setting up your own take down. As if you are more special, not as dumb as the bloke whose head got blown off because law enforcement policy has become heightened confrontation, kill first, then produce the pre-fab story to CYA.
