  1. Nothing is up. It was dead in '87. There hasn't been enough political support to bring it back since '87. Might as well clean up the CFR.
  2. News : FCC officially pulls the Fairness Doctrine from its rulebook | Radio-Info.com
  3. I don't think the problem is "bottom line thinking". It's Wall Street thinking. Companies aren't worth anything to them unless there's constant growth. Even if a company is making money, it's not good to the stock market unless they can buy and sell later for a profit. No growth, and they don't get to suck off the money. So... if a market for a given company is flat, the only way to show growth is to cut costs. Nothing ever goes in the other direction, because any real growth gets sucked off. I know there are exceptions, but that's the mechanism. Of course, automation has killed off a lot of factory jobs too.
  4. Nice one, Nate! Plenty of firepower too.
  5. That's about the size of it. There are a few popular interpretations of the 2nd. SCOTUS chose to straddle the fence.

    I think it changes to Senior Member when you hit 500. Once you hit 5000, you get a free visit to your local shrink :-)
  7. Title insurance is pricey, and may not be required if you're not financing. Dolomite, if you want to talk to my girfriend, she's well versed in all the gory details. Her job now is closing forclosure properties for a HUD contractor. If she can't give you an immediate answer, she can most likely point you in the right direction. She has worked in every end of real estate. Hit me with a PM if you're interested.
  8. You're a good American. Hope you had enough money left over to buy a shiny new bat.
  9. I have a .410 single shot that my daddy gave me
  10. Probably better to just sit Obama in the corner with his dunce hat. If it does come to a registration, I'll be lying my ass off.
  11. Sorry in advance if this is a repost. Rand Paul's email was dated today. Help Rand Paul Defeat the UN Small Arms Treaty! - National Association for Gun Rights
  12. Their politicians are idiots, but I'm thinkin' there is no shortage of guns in Kalifornia either.
  13. Old and crotchety is more like it. :-) . At least Nicemac approves :-) PS: smileys aren't working right now.
  14. You didn't get pissed because Penn didn't try to convert you.
  15. Just to be fair, that should have been a taco. Don't need any gay stuff with that bunch.
  16. Yep. The only thing better would be a two fisted grip.
  17. I have the DVD, and my avatar on two other forums is Not Sure with a rifle. It really is a good prediction of the future.
  18. Spend 30 minutes on the interstate... any interstate, and report back . We're breeding idiots like flies these days.
  19. Need to borrow a center punch? I have one that needs to be staked too.
  20. The people of the US don't want an excellent president. They want someone that tells them what they want to hear.
