How to boil a frog?

""If you throw a frog into boiling water it will immediately jump out but if you put him in cool water and gradually turn up the heat, he will stay in until he dies." This analogy can be applied to the good ole US of A as well. "For the most part we still have this inalienable right [First Amendment]. Except for illegal, supposed, DUI Checkpoints, roving wiretaps, and the fact that now it is illegal in Oklahoma to put bars on your windows because they might be "preventing or delaying entry or access by a law enforcement officer." "They use these "domestic terrorists" to incite irrational fear in the populace in order to pass legislation detrimental to the Constitution, such as the "Enemy Belligerent Interrogation, Detention, and Prosecution Act of 2010" as currently proposed by Senators McCain and Lieberman. This is the most daunting piece of legislation that this country has ever seen. It removes the right to a trial for American Citizens and gives the government the authority to detain American Citizens indefinitely for "suspected terrorist activity." The legislation states that any citizen could be an "Enemy Belligerent" if you are of "potential intelligence value" or in "matters as the President considers appropriate." WHAT??!! How chilling is that? The President can deem anyone he wants to as an Enemy Belligerent and have them "detained" with no rights, no trial, indefinitely." full story -Savoy: Are you an Enemy of the State? |
UPC Exchange has just entered its Crowd Funding stage. Come visit the next best thing since craigslist! The Universal Product Code Exchange (UPC Exchange) website allows people in a local peer-to-peer environment to buy and sell any item with an universal product code label (UPC). In a nutshell: UPCX gives the price advantage of the individual to individual exchange of Craigslist, the ease, structure, and data completeness of Amazon.com, and the convenience of matching buyer with seller of eBay. This will create a much greater chance for a buyer to find a seller and give the seller a significantly higher amount pocketed for their items sold. We like to think of it as, "Craigslist meets eBay meets Amazon.com meets Half Priced Books meets any Brick-and-Mortar re-sale store in the individual's local community." Recent commentsGood Reads |
