It’s the real reason NH doesn’t want to lose the first primary. All their (remaining) local news and TV is fully funded by political ad money.

I swear our Roku remote it’s made of flubber. If it falls off the couch, it can bounce yards/meters from where it fell and somehow get under things that look impossible. And all silently.

While the news has always been a for-profit industry, Citizens United turned election years into billion dollar windfalls for news outfits.

I’m pretty sure that’s why USA Today owns almost all the local papers in my state. They can float the payrolls between election years, or cut a bunch of local reporters and send their own around following primaries in the state with the most campaign money each week.

Not really, it’s the same as caulk.

If you stand there telling people to go kill those guys, then you will be arrested and won’t be protected by the first amendment.

And the second amendment, until very recently (Heller 2008) and depending on which fucking commas you want to recognize, started with “A well regulated Militia (capitalized)” and even then the Supreme court said there can be exceptions to personal possession. Though the current joke of a court would probably put their dicks in that decision as well now.

I’m pretty sure the downvotes missed your point completely.

Jeff Davis wasn’t tried for treason because he had to be technically in another country once the states seceded. This was because the military occupation, and readmittance of confederate states to the union was relying on them being a foreign occupied territory. Whether that was really necessary in the case of a civil war could be argued, but the congress seemed intent on operating within existing laws at the time, rather than making new specific ones with the remaining union members.

I think that the foreign lands policy should have meant that they could have a said fuck em and ratify constitutional amendments without the confederate states.

Call me crazy, but maybe erring on the side of caution makes sense when we’re talking about the right to own tools designed to kill things.

The problem all the other little fish that see the inconsequential punishments, but can still royally fuck up elections even just as poorly coordinated little fish.

VW and Porsche engines area really oil cooled. They have oil cooling radiators inside fan shrouds with thermal expansion baffles that open when it gets hot and close to prevent overcooling in winter.

They didn’t really overheat very often of all the shroud and engine compartment seals were in place and the baffles were in good working order.

The reason you can often go start up an ancient air cooled engine is mainly that they don’t have any water pumps (and water) to sit in them and rust up. That any that there’s no crazy fuel injectors or fancy electrical systems to fail. Just a Carb and distributor to clean/adjust.

Couldn’t read past the intro without giving away an email, but I hope VDO survives. I restore german cars for my hobby and Conti and VDO make a bunch of the parts I often need.

Neither is trashing the climate with pointlessly big vehicles just to compensate for whatever insecurities they have. We need to either tax or regulate these stupid vehicles back to a reasonable and safe size.

But he (and the GOP as a whole) also has deep hate for people of color and the Muslim population in particular. Doing anything that helps that party continue controlling our lives of face eating leopard level stupid.
