Well, so much for Super Tuesday being some kind of "race-ending" event... at least on the Democratic side, things seem just as jumbled as before. On the Republican side, however, McCain cashed in on delegates, winning in practically all the big, winner-take-all states in the northeast, as ...

As an aside the smarter someone is (or at least the higher a degree they get/further they advance in a professional field) the fewer children they have on average. Well, if someone's education level always corresponded to his intelligence, then that might be true...in practice, all it means is all ...

...So it's not true?

Yyyyippeee! The British aren't all idiots after all!

Yipee! Super Tuesday is here...


To all ye in today's states....vote early, and vote often! Do your civic duty...


...as long as you're not planning to vote for the wrong person. In that case, the primary just got moved to March. Pass it on...

Because, if not, I'll have to downgrade my opinion of England a few notches...

Apparently, the British are reaaaallllly bad at History

Seafort: I understand that, from your point of view, Hillary is in fact right-wing....but frankly, from the British point of view, every single politician in America is right-wing. But, at the same time, from the American point of view, most British politicians are so loony left-wing it's not even f...

You know, all this reminds me of a bit of wisdom I heard once; if you go far enough one direction politically, eventually you come out on the other side. Apparently Coulter has now gone so far right-wing that she's met up with Hillary on the other side; fine with me... if she wants Hillary, she's we...

To quote Monty Python, "He's making it up as he goes along...".

Well, duh...


Not bad for the spur of the moment, huh?

Doesn't really explain why they tried to kidnap Geordie. They could have just said thanks and went on their way. Or simply asked to be taken home. Well, perhaps the Pakleds had previously been Space pirates, with the Smart Person using his Prodigous Intellect (TM) to trick people into getting bette...

Ah, well... time to start Retconing, then! Actually, all Klingon knives are naturally constructed out of Beridiumite Ladernum Alloy, which is natural subspace conductur that automatically cloaks it from all passive sensor scans. Or maybe since the knives are so ceremonially important to Klingons, Si...

Theory: The Pakled race consists of large numbers of Type A Pakleds (we'll call them Morons for the sake of conciseness), and a very few Type B, smart Pakleds (we'll call them Smart People), who design all the technology for the Morons to build. Each Pakled ship consists of numerous Morons and one S...

Hmm... are you sure it was all weapons that were banned? The only diaulogue I can remember was that specifcally phasers and other energy weapons were... but I could be wrong.

Anyone know anything more about this?

If it comes down to Hillary v. McCain, I think McCain would have a pretty good chance of beating her...because, once she's nominated, every single Hillary-hating Democrat and Republican is going to be absolutely desperate to stop her; and since McCain is already pretty popular with the moderate crow...

McCain wins Florida and 57 delegates in the winner-take-all battle there...not bad at all considering just a little while ago he was trailing Mitt Romney in most polls. On the Democratic side, Clinton wins handily, though since the state has been stripped of all its delegates by the DNC, it's hard t...

So, basically, we both agree that (1) Belief and ideology always have an effect on decision-making, and (2) a strict Separation of Church and State is thus highly improbable, if not impossible. What we disagree on is whether or not such a Separation would be desirable; I believe firmly it would not,...
