    Vladimir, Stop this crazy thing!

    You are correct. 7 states have not made themselves a party to the agreement. The other 189 have, though. Surely you can recognize that something doesn't necessarily require unanimous agreement for it to be in place. The world, all but 7 nations, have said chemical weapons are a no-no. That's...

    Vladimir, Stop this crazy thing!

    I agree. The world has decided that chemical weapons are a no-no. So the next thing we need to do is obtain irrefutable evidence as to who used chemical weapons in Syria, then present that evidence to the world, and then react accordingly. Thus far, no evidence as to who used it. And for us to...

    Drug Testing for Welfare Recipients

    Humble, a few people want to punish the poor for being poor, and if they can do that by also stomping on what little self-respect and dignity the poor still possess, then all the more better. Clearly, everyone on public assistance is on it because of their own foolish decisions, or because they...

    Vladimir, Stop this crazy thing!

    It's not really our responsibility to intervene in a civil war of a sovereign nation, particularly if conventional weapons are used. As Congressman Brad Sherman noted, Putin's proposal, "may turn out to be the best thing to come out of Russia since vodka.” I cannot imagine anything good...

    At least you aren't hiding the fact that you are intentionally taking advantage of other people's ignorance. I can certainly see why you wouldn't like a 60/40 split at all.

    Vladimir, Stop this crazy thing!

    There is nothing whatsoever in the OP about Putin hating Obama. One hundred percent off-topic. Wrong again. You're one hundred percent wrong. Just because something is defined as slang doesn't make it acceptable. Every vulgar word is slang for something. Slang is defined as speech and writing...

    Leave it to another non-expediter to get it wrong. Every single ounce of Amonger's history is outside of this thread. What Amonger has said in other threads have no business in this thread when it's used to take a cheap shot at him. "So............IMO................this thread has NOT gone...

    Which has absolutely nothing to do with what Amonger posted. Didn't take you very long to take it off-topic and make it about the poster rather than about the post. One would have thought you had learned that lesson.

    Putin is anti-anything America does. You give him too much credit.

    Is this a short?

    Sort of. Measurable volts is a measure of differential. When the ground cables aren't connected and the circuit is completed with the tester, the electricity flows through the circuit. When the ground cables are then connected and the current is flowing through that particular circuit, the...

    "They get what they ask for doesn't matter what the load pays that's none of their business." "I don’t tell them anything other than the contract is for anyone who has a clean driving record and can pass a drug test and that they must be added to my insurance without raising my premium."...

    Drug Testing for Welfare Recipients

    A popular subject with some here on EO a while back, when Florida Governor Rick Scott signed the legislation. Those welfare bums are all on drugs. Why give them welfare when all they're going to do is spent money on drugs (and flat screen TVs and shiny wheels and whatnot)? The idea was to save...

    Obama follows Constitution on Syria

    It's not unprovoked aggression when we invade a "Muslim country," it's "liberation." He's been loudly banging that particular drum for a while now. Remember the Israel–Hezbollah War back in 2006? Because Iran gave military aid to Hezbollah, Kristol said such an act of Iranian aggression should...

    Doesn't really give them much incentive to accept loads. If you tell them which loads to accept, then you're not contracting them, you're employing them.

    It's not van logic at all. Show me any state law which says it is illegal for an unregulated vehicle to be overweight. Good luck with that. :)
