rupert needs better lawyers -- is he hiring from regent:
Genius promoters for Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer thought it was a great idea to incorporate the Silver Surfer onto some 40,000 U.S. quarters - one prob - they didn't inform the U.S Mint.
Fox first announced the unprecedented marketing move last week and unveiled the limited-edition coins to the press.
While the front of the quarters, and George Washington's visage, remained unaltered, the reverse featured a full-color image of the Silver Surfer character, with the URL for the film's Website.
The coins, which were distributed 800 per state prior to the Memorial Day weekend, were meant to encourage fans who found the quarters to log on to the site and enter to win prizes, including a trip for four to the film's London premiere.
Unfortunately, the illegal tender's artwork, while creative, was carried out by the Franklin Mint without the cooperation, or even awareness, of the government, a point the U.S. Mint was quick to lambaste.
"The promotion is in no way approved, authorized, endorsed, or sponsored by the United States Mint, nor is it in any way associated or affiliated with the United States Mint," the government said in a statement. The feds said they didn't know about the promotion until contacted by the media.
While Fox has copped to launching the campaign without government approval, the studio maintains that it was unaware such sign-off was necessary.

They have to do something about the price increases... the whole nonsense of Immigration being self-funding is height of stupidity.
And then pay for a system that could track exits. Almost every other country in the world has exit counters, but the US is too cheap to install such a system.

Okay, except for the Deportees (cue Woody Guthrie sombody, wouldja?) all the rest of you need to go home! Now!
Most of you are white Europeans who've overstayed your visas, and you can stay. You aren't scary. It's the brown Catholic Mexicans who aren't really Christian anyway, who need to leave.
Oh, and the rest of you people from those countries that are Not-Mexico but might as well be, you need to leave, too.
Still waiting for the explanation of how this immigration bill will be enforced, and how the "Cap" will be both maintained, and confirmed.

You people don't understand. O'Reilly's people faced a special kind of discrimination, which they countered with a can-do attitude and a parochial school system. Surely this example is worthless when discussing non-English-speaking immigrants, who don't even speak English!

No U.S. senator has made more trips out to Iraq than Joe Lieberman. He’s a fixture out there. The regular junket has been a part of his campaign to be “Mr. Iraq” in the Senate. About a year ago, when I was working in Baghdad, I listened to a young captain vent about all the time and energy the Army was forced to expend on the regular visits of CODELs – Congressional delegations. “I guess our democratic process requires it. But I really wish these dopes would open their eyes and actually learn something, rather than use Iraq as a backdrop for speeches that fit in to some preconceived political strategy.” I later asked: who were you taking around? And the answer: Joe Lieberman.

They want to break down the white, Christian, male power structure, which you're a part, and so am I, and they want to bring in millions of foreign nationals to basically break down the structure that we have.

In a sermon this afternoon, Cardinal Keith O'Brien is expected to say that Catholic politicians should not expect to receive Holy Communion or remain full members of the church if they support existing abortion law.
He will tell worshippers at St Mary's Cathedral in Edinburgh that people must boycott politicians who do not speak out against the "unspeakable crime".

O'Reilly has always been an asshole, but sometime in the last few years he started to look at himself as a righteous defender of truth and faith and took it to a whole new level. As Franken documented, his capacity for self-deception is limitless.
He probably isn't even aware of how stupid he sounds when he criticizes Edwards for being rich just before hopping in his luxury car to cruise back to his mansion.

"The evidence does not suggest that the surge is actually working," said Alastair Campbell, the outgoing defense attache at the British Embassy in Baghdad May 20. According to Britain's Sunday Telegraph, Campbell also disclosed that U.S. commanders had decided that the criteria for "success" would be only a reduction in violence to the level prior to last year's bombing of the al-Askari Mosque in Samarra. That means 800 dead Iraqis a month - a figure that the Telegraph admits "few would regard as anything remotely approaching peace."

"Thousands of LiveJournal customers are rebelling against the company's recent decision to censor hundreds of sex-themed discussion groups, a broad swath that has led to the removal of literary critiques and fan-written fiction about Harry Potter.
LiveJournal, which is owned by San Francisco-based Six Apart, confirmed Wednesday that it deleted around 500 journals this week in hopes of better "protecting children." It said the deletion was prompted by activist groups, including one called Warriors for Innocence that claims to track sites promoting pedophilia, the sexual abuse of minors, and other illegal activities."

This is, in part, what Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris are talking about (excuse my borrowing Bill O'Lielly's catch phrase) when they discuss the pernitious aspect of religions. It is offensive, and should be especially so in America, to elevate any religion to the level of being the preferred religion of the 'power structure.' Besides that, the idea that the American Power Structure (Military-Industrial Complex, whatever name you give it) actually practises New Testament Christian behavior makes it even more absurd.
Counter-terror police have recorded a 37% increase in "suspicious reconnaissance" of potential targets in the first four months of 2007.

U.S. military commanders are talking with Iraqi militants about cease-fires and other arrangements to try to stop the violence, the No. 2 American commander said Thursday.
What the fuck is there to talk about?
The US gets the fuck out, NOW.
That will be a first step in stopping the violence, because our very presence INSURES that there WILL be violence.
This is not fucking rocket science.

That American casualties in Iraq can be laid at the feet of the war wimps, predominantly and by and large Democrats, who have done nothing but complain and hate President Bush for 4 years already. It is on their hands and conscience.

at the local level, though, the “corporation” is individuals. If I were police chief or mayor of a town, I would protect the businesses because they cerate jobs and tax revenue.
2 full Moons in a single month is the accepted definition of blue moon - you can look it up.

War On War Off
I don't really see the benefit in that, either.
Neither do I.
What about the people who live on the side streets? Why is their security less important? Is it because the businesses tend to be on the High Street? As always, the corporation is more important than the individual.
It's probably even dumber than that - some idiot probably thought they could look like they were "doing something about crime", and people went along with it without realizing that it would be the people who were innocently just minding their own business who would be losing their privacy.
But I'm sure that what's really behind it is all part of the same Big Brothery creepy stuff the authoritarians have pursued all along.

Someone should ask Cheeks how those farm workers are going to pay that large fine on minimum wage. Also, how getting back home to fill out the forms then back across the boarder while you "wait your turn" isn't a boon for the coyotes that tend to leave groups of people to die in the back of trucks.

A blue moon is when you have four full moons in a single season.
2 full Moons in a single month is the accepted definition of blue moon - you can look it up.
Actually:
The term Blue Moon has at least four related meanings. One is a common metaphorical phrase for a rare event that really has little to do with the moon itself. Full moons are given names in folklore, and two definitions of blue moon are a name for a rare full moon that does not have a folk name. One modern blue moon definition is a result of a misinterpretation of the Maine Farmer's Almanac, where a second full moon occurs in a calendar month. The older definition of blue moon is for an extra full moon that occurs in a quarter of the year, which would normally have three full moons, but sometimes has four. Oddly, it is the third full moon in a season that has four which is counted as the "extra" full moon and named blue moon. According to certain folklore, it is said that when there is a blue moon, the moon has a face and talks to the items in its moonlight.

Illegal farm workers getting paid minimum wage? Hardly. Most agricultural industries are already exempted from minimum wage and child-labor laws. Illegals aren't even afforded the bare protections that remain for legal farm workers. Otherwise your point is apt, though.

Yepper.
The first definition (second full moon in a calender month) was invented by Sky and Telescope magazine in March 1946, apparently by a contributor who misinterpreted the Maine Farmer's Almanac. This definition was subsequently promulgated in other news media, and has become almost the "accepted" one, despite its modernity. In March 1999, Sky and Telescope magazine finally published a very belated correction/retraction.

George Will is a wanker.
Here's an excerpt from his latest fecal throw:
Today conservatives tend to favor freedom, and consequently are inclined to be somewhat sanguine about inequalities of outcomes. Liberals are more concerned with equality, understood, they insist, primarily as equality of opportunity, not of outcome.
Liberals tend, however, to infer unequal opportunities from the fact of unequal outcomes. Hence liberalism's goal of achieving greater equality of condition leads to a larger scope for interventionist government to circumscribe the market's role in allocating wealth and opportunity. Liberalism increasingly seeks to deliver equality in the form of equal dependence of more and more people for more and more things on government.
[...]
This reasoning is congruent with conservatism's argument that excessively benevolent government is not a benefactor, and that capitalism does not merely make people better off, it makes them better. Liberalism once argued that large corporate entities of industrial capitalism degraded individuals by breeding dependence, passivity and servility. Conservatism challenges liberalism's blindness about the comparable dangers from the biggest social entity, government.
[...]
Conservatism embraces President Kennedy's exhortation to "Ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what you can do for your country," and adds: You serve your country by embracing a spacious and expanding sphere of life for which your country is not responsible.
[...]
Conservatism is realism, about human nature and government's competence. Is conservatism politically realistic, meaning persuasive? That is the kind of question presidential campaigns answer.
I don't even know where to begin on this shit. Maybe with the utter gall of Will quoting JFK to support conservatism.
yeah, like fuck head o'reilly will get out on the farm and pick his own crops and milk the cows, etc.
O'Reilly's male power structure has been broken for a quite a while, although I hear he likes to whip it out now and again, for old time's sake.

So yeah, now it's like old news.
I don't think I've ever put a long quote like that in a comment - if I've committed some breach of netiquette, I apologize - but I just couldn't believe the crap Will was spewing. I was going to put it in my own blog, but I don't know ... it's just so vomitous.
Anyway, I guess we should just consider the source.
Holden wins a yep/nope!
Today conservatives tend to favor authority, and consequently are unconcerned about inequalities of outcomes.

Tony Blair today defended his "thoroughly interventionist" foreign policy in a farewell speech in Africa.
In a passionate display of his commitment to Africa over the past decade, the prime minister urged the continent's leaders and the west to square up to the challenges ahead.
Speaking at the University of South Africa Business School in Midrand, near the capital Pretoria, Mr Blair said Africa was a subject "close to my heart" and had been at the top of his foreign policy agenda throughout his decade in power.

I guess I'm just not understanding your distinction here. What is a local level corporation? Does it have to be owned locally? Or would a McDonalds, or Walmart in your town be considered local? And, aren't local corporations just as able to engage in dishonest business practices as larger ones? And, finally, if people are so scared to live in the residential areas of town, because crime has been pushed out of the business district, who is there to go shopping at your business, besides tourists? This was the Rendell approach in Philadelphia, and while Center City has undoubtedly improved, the neighborhoods continued to deteriorate to the state you see today.
"Conservatism embraces President Kennedy's exhortation to "Ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what you can do for your country," and adds: "forget all that -- be really really selfish, and while you're at it, feel to steal from government, it doesn't deserve the money like you do."

The one totally irrational blind spot most progressives have is over immigration. It is completely illogical to continue to import millions of low-skilled people when we are laying off workers, at the Hershey plant in Oakdale California for example, over 500 of them, and shipping the jobs to Mexico.
Ask yourself how mass immigration contributes to the solution of any problem we face -- global warming, crime, congestion, urban pollution, loss of green space. Especially when we are importing people from countries that are making no attempt to control their own populaiton growth.
THINK about it for God's sake.

Did he really say "white Christian male power structure?" And McCain thought that was acceptable?
I don't think either of them believe in democracy one little bit, if they think what's really important is preserving a minority's grip on power (and white Christian males are a minority) no matter what the voters say.
This is the mindset that says we'll never elect a woman or black person or Jew or Hispanic. Let's prove them wrong.
