click to source Texas Rep. Ron Paul, a doctor, was asked a hypothetical question by CNN host Wolf Blitzer about how society should respond if a healthy 30-year-old man who decided against buying health insurance suddenly goes into a coma and requires intensive care for six months. Paul--a fierce li... |

Your Result HARDCORE CAPITALIST You are very capitalist. You believe in a free market system with no restrictions by a government...or no government except the corporate state. You want a dog-eat-dog world of intense competition, where only the toughest survive. It may not be a very nice world to li... |

Salvation was worse than I expected by far, though still better than T3. It's been a while since I saw it so I don't remember precisely what things I decided didn't make sense with the plot, besides not knowing where the humans were still able to get enough fuel from to power their jets and helicopt... |

Yup, I have your problem too. I seem to be irresistible to girls online, but in person they rarely want anything to do with me beyond the "friend zone", and it's not like the online girls change their minds when they see my picture or anything (which I let em see pretty early on) so it's not my appe... |

At least he is against war and the drug war and all of that. . Ron Paul is also against abortion. That so-called libertarian wants to make women the brood-mares of the human race. ruveyn Yes, but he also considers abortion to be a State issue, not something the Federal Government should be banning.... |

Seems to me that the Tea Partier's outrage is more focused on Spending than simply on taxes; after all, Obama is spending like a madman, and all of that money has to come from somewhere. If direct taxes are cut, what good does that do if we're just borrowing the difference from China (which must be ... |

Basically, inhaling one milligram of Uranium-238 ... |

I don't think that most of these racists are hard-core Ku Klux Klan-types, I think many of them are racist without thinking about it. That's because they were brought up in an environment where racism is just part of the scene and they don't give it much thought. That's kind of like how some Christ... |

QFT, I remember a similar thing happening in the mid to late 90's with the anti globalization protests that were in vogue at the time.

If you are a tea bagger you are either racist or a moron or both. Only morons follow men saying things they don't agree with. If you are not racist you should not be following a racist, unless you are a moron. If they are millions, thousands or billions it does not make them less racist or less stu... |

Agnostic, and I AM against Obama. I didn't expect much from him when he was elected, based on his voting record as a Senator (i.e. voting to give the telecom companies retroactive immunity for spying on Americans when Bush asked them to (and after he promised he'd never vote for such a thing), to ex... |
