He's not getting re-elected, either way. The polls are decidedly NOT in his favor.

Crist has been saying recently that he very well might not sign it.

hannity is so partisan i can't believe he gets away with it.

That he gets away with what? Having a waterheaded opinion? No laws against that here.

They should institute "merit pay" for senators.

Agreed. Not that this would ever happen.

I think we have enough of a conventional arsenal to take care of any threat without having to resort to the nuclear weapons stockpile at all.

Meh. Had a couple of ok moments, otherwise -- unoriginal and sub par.

http://www.tshirthell.com/shirts/products/a1288/a1288_bm.gif I dont get it. Just waiting for the gif to show the backprint with a punchline, but it never happens. "You know youre happy when.." what? Shure, the guy is an amputee, but i fail to see the humour... If you're happy and you know...

UM Hello dumbfuck, YOU ARE the one who was talking about taking away people's public assistance if they were using LEGAL substances.-- I was the one who said "you can't BUY those items with foodstamps". Yes, you fucking retarded window-licker. To arbitrarily test would be the equivalent o...

Why is it that you can't just say "YES" to the question posed in the thread? It's red herring time with you, because you can't just say "YES" all you seem capable of doing is complaining that YOUR drug of choice isn't legal while other drugs ARE legal. And, like I said in the ot...

I don't know any state that still has "food stamps". Just about every single one has switched to the debit card system. :lol: So you think there's no way around that... So, no, you can't directly BUY weed, cigarettes or beer with food stamps. You may be able to buy something, and trade it...

Nice try. The "technicality" of a law is laughable. In a society, and a nation where we value laws, the 'technicality' of them should be an absolute. If you want your drug of choice to be legalized, research your state constitution and address this 'grievance' you have in the appropriate ...

There he goes again. Apple and Oranges. Or, Weeds and Movies, whichever sounds best. You get your panties in a wad when you can't answer a question without bringing the "what about this? what about that? " bullshit to the discussion. Bottom line is, if it's legal, it's legal, if it's not,...

Hey look! Upinsmoke is talking about something that hasn't been possible for at least 5-10 years. I have no idea. Maybe someone who works in a convenience or grocery store can tell us how the welfare recipients are skirting the law these days. ----- No, I am not looking to trip them up on a TECHNIC...

Since UPINSMOKE has his panties in a wad in the welfare thread, what do you think? And, since we're talking about it, WHY do you think the way you do? Who's got panties in a wad? It was a discussion. Yeah, it should be legal. This is the reason: I think a human animal should be able to medicate its...

...but hey, since we're talking about welfare recipients wasting money... many welfare recipients smoke cigarettes/tobacco products and drink alcohol like it's going out of style. Should the government test for that also? I mean, since they're wasting taxpayer money on drugs and all that shit. Well...

It's alright to keep on drinking, because YOU like it, right? Those things SHOULDN'T be made illegal, is that what you're implying? "Just go after the illegal ones, because they're not MY drug?" Nice logic. No. You go after the ILLEGAL ones because they are ILLEGAL. Is that a hard concept...

...but hey, since we're talking about welfare recipients wasting money... many welfare recipients smoke cigarettes/tobacco products and drink alcohol like it's going out of style. Should the government test for that also? I mean, since they're wasting taxpayer money on drugs and all that shit.

Again with the 'but cigarettes and beer are legal" argument? I think we SHOULD test for ILLEGAL drugs. Don't want to be tested for illegal drugs? Don't get the government handout. It's pretty simple. It's alright to keep on drinking, because YOU like it, right? Those things SHOULDN'T be made i...

I realize this. I'm addressing VK's attitude -- "They're illegal , dammit!!11!!1" posts. "Oh no, sumbuddy smoked the pots!!!111!, They're on the welfare!!!!11!" I wouldn't call a pothead a crackhead because it's not close to the same thing, but other than that, he's basically ri...

If the cops can use a simple urine test to determine if a suspect is under the influence of a chemical, then it's already proven to be accurate enough in the eyes of the court. Is this where I put a facepalm? Ok -- *facepalm* What part of "would cost too much" and "not accurate"...

Illegal drugs are already illegal. We aren't talking about instituting new drug laws here. It's welfare reform, not drug enforcement. I realize this. I'm addressing VK's attitude -- "They're illegal , dammit!!11!!1" posts. "Oh no, sumbuddy smoked the pots!!!111!, They're on the welfa...

How many people hypothetically tested would be a "crackhead"? CRACKHEAD is a generic term that I use for anybody who is a drug abuser. Crackhead, pothead, pill head, meth head, whatever term you want to use, use it. And, I am not bitching about the government expanding services to anybody...

Not you. I never thought you were a conservative.

Since so many employers require drug testing, couldn't drug testing for those on welfare be seen as part of the "rapid return to work" justification for welfare? Just throwin' that out there. (For the record, I feel marijuana should be legal, and taxed.) I really see no reason for 80% of ...

How many people hypothetically tested would be a "crackhead"?

OH! It's the "victimless" excuse again. I don't see how a simple urine test to determine if a person is participating in illegal activity is a VIOLATION! of your rights, when otherwise the thing that's violated is flushed down the toilet. "Victimless" isn't an excuse. Make rapid...

How is finding evidence that you broke the law a violation of your privacy? Is it a crime with victims? If not -- leave it alone. What next? Drug-testing for a driver's license, marriage certificate or SS card? Government shouldn't be in the business of invading every aspect of your personal life. ...

I don't think it is a good idea. I'm all for limiting the time spent on welfare and tighter verification restrictions, but that would be an invasion of privacy.

Those scanners do not use visible light like a regular camera does so they do not produce spankworthy pix. That probably depends on the spanker. Every available kink in this world has adherents. That's why there's so many child molesters working in theme parks, or catholic priests abusing young par...
