 | If Obama knew the IRS was targeting Specific Groups - EthanL on 5/17/13 at 4:51 pm
And lies under oath about it, or by deposition, whatever, he should be Impeached. Case closed.
Benghazi and the AP thing are non-stories, save for the fact we need to find the people responsible for the attack.
The IRS thing is huge, and could bring him down....

I've heard people say Obama wants gas prices to go up.

Rather than start a new thread blaming the President, Republicans, Libertarians, Democrats, or terrorists, lets just agree to give everyone the benefit of the doubt (save for the ter...

| So, the planet Krypton lives? SPOILER ALERT - EthanL on 4/24/13 at 4:22 pm
*SPOILER ALERT*
Dunno if this was discussed yet.
Noticed at the end of the new trailer, Ka-lel makes a reference to his 'world', as if it still exists.
Thoughts? Is Supes 'more super' because he had 30 years + on earth, as opposed to the invading Kryptonians?...

| 'Man of Steel' will redefine Superman's ability to fly - EthanL on 4/6/13 at 3:18 pm
I don't know if any of you noticed, but this seems to be one of the more interesting developments of the movie.
It appears to me that Superman has an endless array of powers that he just has to learn how to use, and it is all tied into his super-strength. From the previews, it looks like he 'lear...

| Question about Dr. Ben Carson - EthanL on 4/2/13 at 10:35 pm
He seems to be a very intelligent, knowledgeable, and sincere person. A far cry from [i]most[/i] in Washington (name a GOPer that closely resembles his line of thought).
My question is this: Considering the political climate, the cynicism that is politics, the toxic nature of Washington, and the ...

| Why is the Elephant the symbol of the Republican Party? - EthanL on 3/22/13 at 3:07 pm
One is forced to take the lead, and sticks his nose up in the air, while the others fall in line, stick their nose up the rear of the one in front of them, and blindly follow the leader.
But...seriously...why is it their symbol?...

Like the Donkey, if they do not want to do something, they lay down and do nothing, or they start kicking anything nearby, including other dumb-arse Democrats.
But seriously, why is it a Donkey?...

| GOP/Conservative birth pangs need to be real for any real 'change' in America - EthanL on 3/14/13 at 6:31 pm
I think more than anything, this is what is hurting the GOP.
Ok. Lets agree on something: Liberals/Democrats are shrewd politicians. They have been out-politicking the GOP for quite sometime.
And it's true we don't know what a Romney White House would have looked like, or how diverse it would...

And it will be Dolan from the United States.
I think everyone including this country has dirt on the Vatican.

| The reasons why 'Gay rights', is an uphill political battle - EthanL on 2/26/13 at 2:39 am
Sort of an answer to a thread that got whacked due to lack of political overtones:
I think the gay/homosexual lifestyle is a lifestyle of choice.
I think it's addictive, confusing for them, and especially now in a world that says its 'okay', hard to break from.
I think people have tendenci...

| Universal (inalienable) rights, or Necessary Evils? - EthanL on 2/23/13 at 3:24 pm
Most Americans would say we have 'come a long way' in, say, the past century and a half, and I guess that's true.
But it seems to me, and I consider myself still a young man at 37, there has been a slow descent into chaos the past 20.
Consider these issues that have been discussed [i]ad[/i] [i...

They had this expert on like last week Friday. He was mentioned in Dorner's manifesto etc.
Fuhrman basically said that the authorities in Cali didn't know what they were doing. He said this man was very dangerous, highly skilled, and that there was a 0% chance he was in the state.
He said a b...

I just got thru watching the remake of Total Recall, which I knew was wasted time. I wasn't surprised to see good guys blowing away bad guys, with one or two good guys going down every now and then.
What surprised me was how random people, whether it was in a workplace, shopping center, or street...

I am posing this question to conservatives, in hopes of no deflection, staying on subject, and in an even more desperate attempt to keep Barack Obama and liberals out this response.
Lets set the table. Liberals, I think, have gone too far in these areas:

Meh. I'm finally over it. I think about 'what could've been', and consider Coach Miles's place in CFB history with an OK Lite vote here and a play there, and I know the difference is razor thin between the two.
