 | A Special Prosecutor in IRS case is Obama's Dream? - Scoop on 5/22/13 at 3:55 pm
I was thinking the other day that Obama would benifit from a special prosecutor.
It shuts down the story for a very long time, years probably. Ken Starr was appointed in August of 1994 and it was a few years before it all came to a head.
We'll get the ol' "Not going to comment on an ongoing in...

I've bought a lot of stuff from eBay over the years but only sold one thing and it worked out great.
Trying to sell something now that would get great action if it got some eyeballs. It got 7 views in the first 10 minutes and it has been buried ever since. No views since shortly after the listi...

One scandal is manageable, especially for Obama.
Two scandals are manageable for Obama.
Three scandals are not manageable, even for Obama.
All of these are HUGE and happening at the same time.
Our President is either clueless or complicit.
He is either not in control and incompetent o...

| Discuss the historical context of this tornado: - Scoop on 5/20/13 at 9:36 pm
Due to forecasting and media, no tornado will ever eclipse the death toll of the Tri-State Tornado.
I don't think a tornado will ever stay on the ground as long as the TST, either. A 219 mile damage path is simply unimaginable and proves that the TST was possibly the greatest meteorological anoma...

Struggling blue states are struggling due to unsustainable allegiance to unions and oppressive taxes.

A doctor is supposedly live tweeting from a ophthalmologist conference on compliance with Obamacare and most of the doctors bounced as it was going on.
Tweeter is a Dr. Kristin Held.
Legit?

4 lane overpass over I-20. One unit is on top of the overpass on the east side of it so east bound traffic can't see him up there as they approach. He is shooting radar down at eastbound traffic as they pass under.

Is it to prepare to kill us all or is it to use the pretend unlimited resources of the federal government to bypass a legislative attack on the 2nd Amendment by choking off the supply of ammunition available in retail outlets available to the public?
It's the latter.

Don't understand the hate.

| Tactically, Drones could never intervene in a domestic terrorist attack. - Scoop on 3/7/13 at 5:19 pm
These are the reasons:
Armed drones would have to stay in the air around the clock above high value areas in the U.S. to even have a chance to react to a quickly developing ground threat. Besides the legal issues involved in that, they may have to all stay up there for years 24/7 before a threat ...

This is what is so creepy to me.
No one would argue that American citizens are fair game for a human piloted A-10 dropping a Hellfire.
A drone is piloted by a human. The only difference is that the human is not sitting in it.
