  1. A very interesting take on the gun issue from none other than Richard Dreyfus.
  2. I would posit that the British military had far superior weapons and tech (for the period) than the colonial militias had.
  3. Let me explain further: Fear of losing the Senate drove the decision. They decided this would be the only way to get Obama's appointees through. That's my theory anyway....
  4. I think fear of the 2014 mid-term is what drove this decision.
  5. I can't decide which is better: The pseudo-Mercedes current model or the pseudo-Audi new model....
  6. The gauges are in the same location but the gauge faces are different and needle sweep is larger. They only cover half of the circle on the current cluster.
  7. Yeah, people tend to forget that bands like The Eagles, Styx, Kansas, The Doobie Brothers, Journey, Rush, KISS, Aerosmith, Boston (I'm sure I missed a few) were big in the '70s.
  8. Racist (noun) - Anyone winning an argument with a liberal progressive.
  9. Completely disagree. Even left-wing news organizations have reported on the administration's targeting of journalists. It goes far beyond what any other administration has done.
  10. This administration has a documented history of targeting investigative reporters. That's the part you are ignoring.
  11. Please. You won't even address the central issue and I'm the one whose done? I'm just done wasting my time with you.
  12. Since you have nothing of value to add to this discussion, I'm done.
  13. I've heard that CEOs of insurance companies that have spoken out about the ObamaCare fiasco have received phone calls from the White House not to do it anymore. There's nothing quite like Chicago mob politics on a national scale.
  14. If he had them illegally, then they should be confiscated. But the gun ownership isn't the issue here. Her sloppiness with her notes is not relevant either. What is at issue is the confiscation of her notes without a warrant. Even the left leaning DailyKos says it creates a chilling effect on investigative journalism and it isn't the only time journalists have been targeted in recent months. Why don't you stop dancing around the central issue with all this extraneous nonsense that has no relevance?
  15. Why couldn't they do it the old fashioned way by laying them out on the desk, taking photos with with a miniature camera, then putting them back. Actually seizing them is so....so...barbaric!
  16. None of that changes the fact they seized documents related to her government-related investigative journalism that we're NOT not included in the search warrant.
  17. Because it was a "fishing expedition"... Seriously though, what better way to intimidate her than an implicit threat against her husband by way of his employer, which it just so happens is a part of DHS. If not intimidation, then the gun search was a ruse to search her documents to what else she had without accusing her of a security breach. It's an intrusion on the First Amendment: http://p.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/oct/25/armed-agents-seize-records-reporter-washington-tim/?page=all
  18. Nope. The warrant was for illegal guns not documents. If they suspected he was up to wrong-doing in regards to passing information to his wife, then the warrant would have said as much. This is intimidation, pure and simple.
  19. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2013/10/26/1250840/-Armed-Federal-Agents-Seize-Reporter-s-FOIA-Documents-in-Predawn-Raid-on-Her-Home# So they go in under the pre-tense of searching for illegal firearms and a"potato gun" and walk with legally owned firearms and document not even named in the warrant. This is inexcusable intimidation of journalists not to mention illegal seizure of property.
