And what criminal charges have come forth?

Nothing because its all BS, and you and your ilk are fools drinking it up.

How that $6/gal gas working for you and yours?
Democrat policies at work.

I hope they make it detect people on their phones too. That’s apparently more dangerous than drunk driving…..
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), driving a vehicle while texting is six times more dangerous than intoxicated driving. The Transport Research Laboratory found that writing a text message slows driver reactions by 35 percent, while drinking alcohol up to the legal limit slows reactions by 12 percent. Another study stated that texting drivers react 23 percent slower than intoxicated drivers do.

I have no empathy for Liberal fools who push lies, nor the fools who drink it up.

Don't get mad learn the truth.
99% black on Black murders. 1% black on black murders.
Fix the big issue and the 1% will fade away.

Where is CNN or any the main steam media on the 99% issue? They just stoke the flames of racial division.

34 seconds of not a care in the world. Drink it up.

Everyone needs some happiness in their life.

This one's for you Bob. Drink it up.

[Hook]
Hangover, hangover, hangover, hangover-over-over (bend over)
Hangover, hangover, hangover, hangover-over-over (bend over)
Party’s over, it ain’t over
Try to make a bad memory over and over
Hangover, hangover, hangover, hangover-over-over (bend over)
Hangover, hangover, hangover, hangover-over-over (bend over)
Party’s over, it ain’t over
Care to find a single piece of me, game over
Hangover
Hangover
Hangover, hangover, hangover, hangover-over-over
Hangover, hangover, hangover, hangover-over-over (bend over)
Hangover, hangover, hangover, hangover-over-over
Care to find a single piece of me, game over

[Verse 1: Snoop Dogg]
Drink ‘till you’re drunk
Smoke like a broke stove
Don’t quit, take flight
I can’t remember last night
It’s aight, this the life of a superstar
Sci-fi with that boy trooping hard, couping cars
Snoop be hard in the paint
Drink another cup until I fall flat
All lead and then some
1-5-1, done dilly
Really for sure that
I’m throw back intoxicated
Change over, game over, hangover, faded
Body shed, miss

[Verse 2: PSY]
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe catch a lady by the toe

[Pre-hook]
(Take a shot!)
Drink it up and get sick
Bottom’s up, get wasted
Pour it up, drink it up, live it up, give it up
Oh my God, dammit, there’s the fucking limit
Pour it up, drink it up, live it up, give it up

But I can’t stop
Making bottles pop until the wheels fall off

And I can't quit
I wake up in the morning do the same shit
Wake up in the morning do the same shit

[Hook]

[Bridge: Snoop Dogg]
Waking and baking, shaking the flees
Caking and baking, raking the cheese
Early in the morning in the bathroom on my knees
Tipping and dripping, flipping the flow
Whipping and dripping a drink on the floor
This is the only way that I was taught a long time ago
Seoul, Korea, you’ll see a G-a like me-a
Never would there ever be another like he-a
G-A-N-G-S-T-A, nothing left to say
I done smoked my whole day

[Verse 3: Psy]

[Pre-hook] + [Hook]

[Bridge]

[Hook] + [Pre-hook] + [Hook]

http://lyrics.wikia.com/R.E.M.:Let_Me_In

Yeah all those stars drip down like butter
And promises are sweet
We hold out our pans with our hands to catch them
We eat them up, drink them up, up, up, up

Heyyyyyyyyyyy, let me in
Heyyyyyyyyyyy, let me in

I only wish that I could hear you whisper down
Mister Fisher moved to a less peculiar ground
He gathered up his loved ones and he brought them all around
To say goodbye,
Nice try.

Heyyyyyyyyyyy, let me in
Yeah yeah yeah
Heyyyyyyyyyyy, let me in

I had a mind to try to stop you
Let me in. Let me in
Well, I got tar on my feet and I can't see all the birds look down and laugh at me
Clumsy, crawling out of my skin

Heyyyyyyyyyyy, let me in
Yeah yeah yeah
Heyyyyyyyyyyy, let me in

Heyyyyyyyyyyy, let me in
Yeah yeah yeah
Heyyyyyyyyyyy, let me in

I replied generically on the video, but as a reply to anything regarding cap & trade this reasoning doesn't track. Maybe it would sorta be appropriate as a response if what cap & trade consisted of was a flat tax on gasoline.

I'm also for repealing the subsidization of all dirty energy -- and the entire environmental movement would likely agree with me on that (even alleged fraud Al Gore!).

So here's the only real connection. In both cases we're talking about market externalities -- cases where market transactions between two entities cause harm (or benefit) to people not involved in the transaction. This is never desirable; you want prices to reflect the harm or benefit you're causing those other people, otherwise you open yourself up to malinvestment's ugly stepsister, malconsumption (and yes, I made that word up, but it is just like that other made-up Austrian word, only regarding consumption instead of investment).

One highly-regarded way to bring externalities under the auspices of market forces is to use Pigouvian taxes. Sometimes you get some centrally-planned tax rate (like all flat sin taxes), but ideally you want some sort of market-driven mechanism setting the size of the Pigouvian tax -- which is what cap and trade is all about.

Anyways, I'm just leading you to water (100% piss-free!), I don't really have much hope you'll drink.

Up the butthole with this one, dear sir!

A friend of mine had a mirror at the end of a hallway in his house that covered the entire wall (or rather, it was the wall). People would walk right into it, even with the reflection.

The best was watching a 7 y/o kid hit it at full speed holding a plastic cup full of pepsi. The kid was fine, but most of the drink ended up on the ceiling.

> going to refuse getting various shots that will keep you alive.

LOL @ swine flu vaccine keeping me alive, you're a real sucker !!! drink it up, dude, enjoy that vaccine it was MADE FOR people like YOU ! We'll take our chances with diseases and our immune systems in my house. ( and we've already done the swine flu anyway )

p.s. people usually live to be about 85 in my family and 90 in my wifes family and most of them dont take any of your "life extending" pharmaceuticals at all.

So remember kiddies, eat those pills, drink those cocktails, accept your injections! The medical industry may be wholly profit driven on your symptoms and despair, but you can rest easy they're doing the best they can for their stockholders.

Quite so Psychologic. The life expectancy metrics are not reflective of the quality of US doctors, clinics, & hospitals. It has far more to do with choices of individuals regarding diet, sedentary lifestyle, and overindulgence (booze, food, smokes & drugs). Infant mortality is a strawman. When you look at the data, it is obvious the reason is America's far greater 'pre-term' birth rates which are riskier and result in higher mortality (duh) no matter how good the doctors are.

it only takes one person to qualify a country as having excellent health care.

You can rage at the conservative perspective as much as you like if it helps, but reality is what it is. Conservatives think that excellent health care equals excellent doctors, clinics, hospitals, & medicine. Neolibs think that excellent equals a socialized entitlement.

Based on WHAT?

Based on the fact that our health care is excellent. The numbers you cite have very little to do with our health care providers being somehow 'inferior' to European counterparts. They are the result of the poor choices of our citizens. In fact, American doctors are superior at identifying and quickly beginning the treatment of patient conditions. The problem is the PEOPLE want to be 'healthy' while at the same time they are smoking, drinking, drugging up, screwing around, driving stupidly, laying out in the sun, pigging out on junk food, and not exercising.

Definition of inferior

WHO is weighted strongly towards issues that are more political and economic than they are related to actual quality of health care. Regardless, I take issue with the loaded, inaccurate use of 'inferior'. That somehow implies that the US system is full of incompetent doctors, crappy clinics, lousy hospitals, and poor quality medicine. That's simply not true.

Your beef is not that we have 'bad health care'. Your beef is that we haven't scored higher on the WHO's artifically weighted list. We're #37. Oh NO! Our system is 'terrible!'... Uh - no... Just... No. You keep bragging how much better Canada is. They're #30. That's a REALLY big difference, eh hoser? :eyeroll: Just beceause the US is not #1 on the WHO's list doesn't mean our system is 'inferior'. It means: 1. That the WHO's metrics are skewed... 2. US citizens need to stop having thier kids early just to suit thier careers... 3. Americans need to quit being hedonistic, bacchinal, sluggards and start eating less & exercising more.

"But we spend SO MUCH MORE MONEY...!" This is another strawman. Americans spend more per capita on EVERYTHING. Food. Cosmetics. Widgits. Soap. Computer games. Movies. You name it - the US spends more per capita. You think maybe - just maybe - that our spending per capita on health care has more to do with our macroeconomics?

I'm surprised he or she doesn't just knock the glass over and drink it up off the table... Seems less troublesome.

Seems like there is a shit load of "I dont care what Matt Damon says on principle", which is all well and fine. But in the end its also isolationist knee-jerk reaction to idiots to drink up celebrity drivel.

Im not drinking it up - Im just plain agreeing with well put view, which happens to be expoused by MAAAAAAAAAT DAAAAAAMOnnNNnnnNnnnn

haha! you made my drink come up my nose
