Try to read in what you will - the fact of the matter is that the vast majority of folks only squeal about how much money is being spent if they don't approve of WHAT it is being spent on .... and they are silent on "spending" as long as they money is being spent in a way that they personally approve of.
The money wasted by the right to "get something .... ANYTHING" was a taxpayer-funded political vendetta. A poor use of public resources imho.
The key here is..."imho."

Yes....but spending money investigating TORTURE is a waste of money

and whether they put those letters in post or not, virtually all posts here are opinions. Some try to play them as "fact" and they only look foolish imho. But an opinion based on a fair and intelligent examination of the evidence is, I believe, far more valuable that rejurgitated talking points and cutesy emoticons.
you mean like the rhetoric some on the left are using.....if your against this president....you must be a bigot?........like that?......just askin.....
that's kind of an oversimplification. what people are saying is that there is an undercurrent of racism in things like the birfer movement and the garbage about not letting kids see him make a speech telling them to study and stay in school.
the rest is just the same soreloser garbage that led them to spend 70 million to investigate a popular sitting president so they could undo an election.
Gosh... If it was two white kids that beat up a black kid, Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton would have been right there to get their mugs on tv and to right this terrible wrong. I wonder where they are because it was two black kids beating up a white kid. Wouldn't it have been nice for them both to have showed up to say how wrong this was? Maybe the white people of this country need a couple of big mouth, tv opportunity grabbing, no acount lead asses like Sharpton and Jackson to go from crisis to crisis to represent us white folks.
If there is soma involved, count me in.You know, I do hope they continue making laws to stop what offends someone, then we can all live in secluded little cubes, talking to no one, eating nothing but bread and water, and wearing only skin tight jump suits. Oh, and everyone's skin will have to be dyed purple so there is no difference.

Then people believe in segregation to some degree.No.
Using that logic you might as well shut down all girls schools too.
Next.
Those who voted for Prop H8 in California do.

Train of thought map: Your post started me flashing back to the time when I was reading Orwell and other sciFi stories of totalitarian futures.

bullshit....when gays have to sit in the rear of the bus,use their own drinking fountains,cant get served in restaurants,then you can say gays have been SEGREGATED....Prop 8 was about changing a "custom" that has been around for centuries.....that wont happen over night....

Doesn't seem so much like fiction these days, does it?

I'm pretty sure I could get laid if I went to Vassar.
...i bet Dave would be scoring nightly....you know the dude with the smile in those commercials for the pill that makes you have "reverse shrinkage"....
I really am thankful to my highschool teachers for having much of this genre of literature as required reading. It helped instill in me at a young age the importance of the fundamental protections of our freedoms here in the USA and the dangers of limiting them.Not in the least.

Lately I have been wondering if those fiction writers didn't happen to know more than they were credited for. Each year Orwell, Lovecraft, and Asimov seem more and more accurate.
The Democrat party cannot stand anyone who isn't in lockstep with their "progressive" agenda and will play any card to discredit, smear, besmurch or create prejudice to advance their socialist agenda.

My school didn't, our students were more encouraged to join sports and crap like that instead of study anything deep. I read them all on my own, started reading whatever I could when I was in elementary school. Went through all of Lovecraft and Asimov by the time I was in junior high, and then Orwell was an on and off read. Asimov is actually one who should be credited for most of the advances in technology we have seen in the 20th century and even today, it was his "personal communicators" in one of the Opus books that sparked the idea for cell phones, now they look and are used just like what he had discussed there. It's uncanny.
