Here's how the government will track you down and throw you in guantanimo if you are republican. http://voices.washingtonpost.com/ezra-klei...ual_mandat.html

"Cantor said he doesn’t release information about the incidents of his own threats to the media because it will only ratchet up violence. But he did say a bullet shot through the window in his campaign office in Richmond Monday evening, and he has received threats because he is Jewish." haha, I won't release information, btw i had a bullet go through my window and got anti-semitic comments. But I won't release any information.

if it's at the beginning of a session you only need 51 votes...or...something like that.

Do you think they will work to repeal this rule when the whining stops, or will this become sacred as all the old cranks feel about every rule in the senate.

Elarton's a good looking man.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Mar 25, 2010 -> 06:20 PM) oh yea. my bad. you realize that was a joke to show just how obnoxious that position is. This violence and threats need to stop UNIVERSALLY. Because if people don't start saying how radical it is, it's going to take a real tragedy for people to take a step back.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Mar 25, 2010 -> 05:15 PM) Romney was on WIND this morning. He tore into Obamacare pretty good and explained how drastically different the plan is from his. You see, this one is nicknamed Obamacare, whereas mine was Romneycare. And mine was in Massachussetts, whereas this happens in the country. It's completely different.

Those gunshots and anti-semitic comments are okay because republicans also called people the n word and f*****.

you do not want to get me started on how columbia missouri used their bike grant. UGH

What's funny was the explanation for why pods was such a good baserunner was his instincts and reads. edit: out of curiosity does anyone know if instinct can and should be pluralized? I've never thought about this before.

In a democracy you can have a revolution without killing people. You can even have a revolution without making death threats, throwing out epithets and cutting gas lines. I'd prefer a revolution have a coherent message, however.

man...AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I thought the DH was our wise moment NOT GOD DAMN EVERYTHINGAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

er, if kristallnacht was merely this, nobody would remember kristallnacht.

I think this is a big victory for drug reform no matter if it passes or not. The fact that it's on the ballot is big.

makes sense. couldn't tell if he meant all time and was then mistaking who knows wha waaa waaaaaa

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Mar 24, 2010 -> 01:28 AM) I guess that would be 1 AL player since 2000 or only 1 over 70. Only 69 times has a player stolen at least 40: #1 is Pierre with 8, #2 is Crawford with 6 #3 Podsednik, Rollins and Figgins with 4. Of course only 8 times as a player been caught stealing 20+ times since 2000 and Pierre leads the way with 3 (he's also #1 with 24 CS in '04, tied with Alex Sanchez) no other player has done it multiple times. only 69 times since 2000?

i think that faxing nooses, vandalizing and making death threats is the definition of crazy ass...but not to kap.

i have a feeling with grassleys long-running shtick and scott browns shtick soon everyone in the senate is going to buy a beat up truck and say "HEY I'M JUST LIKE YOU"

we are surrounding beckham with pierre and mark kotsay. that's sandwiching a steak with two cow pies.

Yeah, her vegan red velvet cupcakes were boss.

GENT•LE•MEN Here's a nice vegan dessert recipe to cool off with. (OR HEAT UP WITH, BUT THEN COOL OFF WITH THE ICE CREAM) Vegan Caramel-Apple Pie The Crust Best part. I need to re-work the recipe to make just a wee bit more dough so I can attempt a real, non-meddled with basketweave next time with a little more dough. I have also heard to chill as many of the ingredients and utensils used in making a pie as possible beforehand. The bowl, the fork, everything...next pie, I will try this and see if it improves the crust at all. Taste-wise, the crust was delicious, and the recipe a keeper. First, preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Then sift 1.5 C flour, 1/2 C. brown sugar, 1 t. ginger, 1 t. cinnamon, 1/4 t. allspice, 1/2 t. salt and 1 t. baking powder. Add 1/2 C. softened margarine, 1 tablespoon at a time, cutting it in with a knife. Then drizzle in 1 T. molasses and 2 T. cold water and mix the ingredients with your fingers just till the dough clings into a ball. Set aside 1/2 a cup of dough and kneaded the pieces into balls. Press the larger bit into a pie pan and bake in the over for 10 minutes. The Filling I have found a lot of conflicting ways to cut the apples to put in the pie. Some recipes want you to slice thin pieces, others want you to cube the apples or cut them in thicker slices. Which way do any of you out there prefer your apple pie filling? For this recipe I cut slightly thick slices, which I would make thinner next time. All taste testers agreed the apples could be a little mushier. Take 4 granny smith apples and cut them into slices. Sautee the slices in 2 T. margarine for five minutes. Remove them from the heat and toss the slices with 1 T. flour and 1/4 C. sugar. Set aside. Now, since the apples end up getting caramel sauce poured on them, I debated whether or not I should omit the 1/4 sugar. I think I ended up tossing the apples in roughly half that. The Caramel Sauce Worst part of the recipe for me. I winged it a little, which was in hindsight a bad idea. I also wasted a lot of sugar and margarine in the process. For some reason I always think that cornstarch is a suitable equivalent for arrowroot, and sometimes it is. But when making something as tricky as vegan caramel sauce -- I should have just dragged my ass to Whole Foods and sucked it up. But instead I thought, as I have thought at least several times before in my pie-making past, 'No no, cornstarch is like practically the same thing. No need to make an extra trip when you can be lazy!'. Disaster, always. The sauce ended up not gelling properly, and was a soupy mess. I still put some in the pie, however, and it tasted fine. I was afraid it might soak the pie crust, but it didn't. Next time if I can succeed in making it a little gooier, it will be an amazing sauce...I just need to play around with recipes and find a good balance. Combine 1/4 C. soy milk and 2 T. cornstarch; whisk and set aside. Melt 1/2 C. margarine in saucepan and stir in 2 C. brown sugar. Add 1/2 C. soy milk. Boil for four minutes, stirring. Add milk/arrowroot mixture after taking the saucepan off of the heat. The Assembly Pour apples and caramel sauce into pie crust. Top pie with the remaining ball of pie dough and cover with tin foil. Bake 35-40 minutes. Remove tin foil and bake for another 10 minutes. Serve with vegan ice cream. Delicious. Overall a pie worth experimenting with. Expect the caramel-apple pie with gingerbread crust saga to continue... from a friend's vegan cooking blog.

QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Mar 24, 2010 -> 02:39 PM) Why, did they go completely disco dancing or something? I havent heard any of it. more like a really boring early seventies bowie impression. the single was the best song on it, but even so, compared to time to pretend/electric feel/kids it's an album lots of bands could make.

There's a reason why wyden-bennet also wanted to blow up employer provided insurance. It was unsustainable. You either fix the problem now or you wait for it all to implode.
