I got a pretty good handle on your political beliefs by your stance on rights. No one whose stance on rights is as amorphous as yours is a conservative. Col. Kwiatkowski is. "The Dimmer" isn't a liberal label; it's a label given him by people who were far more conservative than he to...

Maybe they're happy about it. Some people aren't happy unless they're enslaved. When I was in the military, a friend of mine always bemoaned how he had wished basic training was tougher. He said, "They should be allowed to throw us through windows!" I think some people have the same opinion...

Lt. Col Kwiatkowski does not back political correctness. She is probably a paleoconservative/libertarian hybrid, like me, though I've never heard her label herself. I've read countless of her articles, though, so I'm fairly confident about that. The thing is, being a paleoconservative, she...

From: Former GOP congressman predicts new Sedition Act | Raw Story Those of you who lovingly fawn and slobber over government, those of you who feel the need for a master governing your lives, even though that master is comprised of humans as fallible (or moreso) than you, is this what you...

The opinion of a USAF Lt. Col, who, it can be presumed, is a little more familiar with military justice than the rest of us keyboard commandos, doncha think?

Patently false. They teach in basic training that the Bill of Rights still applies, and that you still have every civil right you had before you enlisted. They are, indeed, two separate animals, and they exist in parallel. And in our system of government, the military is under civilian...

I haven't saved them, but I've read of them maybe half a dozen times.

Being that the charge is that he released classified material to an uncleared party but not a foreign government, the possible sentence is up to 52 years. So it's not treason, and not a capital offense. And again, perhaps we should give him a trial first, whaddya think? Allegedly. To the...

Manning has rights under the Bill of Rights. The UCMJ further codifies them without subtracting from the Bill of Rights. They cover that in basic training. The conditions Manning is experiencing have been published in several places. He's locked up 23 hours a day, deprived of a pillow and...

I read stuff by a bunch of liberals on this forum. I'm not one of them. I'm a socially conservative libertarian. We libertarians, who love the Bill of Rights, believe, among other things, that pre-trial confinement is to ensure the accused shows up in court, not to punish. And punishing is...

Hmmm... think we should give him a trial first, or just storm the sheriff's office, break him out and string him up? And would it be just a show trial, or should we wait for a conviction? I don't know about you (actually, I do, based on what you've posted on the matter), but perhaps we...

This info must be VERY old. I clicked on 4 states road conditions maps and every one was a bad link.

Brad Manning Has Rights! by Karen Kwiatkowski At the culminating point of the movie A Few Good Men, Colonel Jessup, played magnificently by Jack Nicholson, angrily tells...

Nope. Any whiff of any objection to this particular sexual perversion will result in the one who objects being slammed by superiors. The homosexuals will have extra rights, which is what they have wanted all along. Hate crime laws will be applied to a ridiculous extreme.

It most certainly is a choice. You choose to put rod A into slot B or you don't. That's what makes you a homosexual. Urges, preferences, desires, all that means nothing. If you have sexual relations with someone of your own sex, THEN you're a homosexual.

There's a shocker. I gotta lie down.

I used to think that it was, but the Bush administration and several people on this board have disabused me of that. The only difference which group in power makes is which set of rights are being stolen.

He's even proposed requiring car (and presumably truck) manufacturers to build in technology that will block cell phone signals. I never heard him address how that would affect passengers that want to use the phone while it's moving, or how that would affect emergency calls. This rule-making...

Like Big Sis' recorded announcements in Walmarts admonishing the people to call the police in the event of some emergency. Why is local crime the business of the DHS? Seems like everything is now. Anybody think this is a good thing?

Another use for the hair dryer and extension cord is that the heat helps with removing decals from a company that you're leaving.
