    Obama: Jesus Is A "Son of God"

    Not to mention the report today referencing his use of "Jesus had doubts"....

    Federal tax rates

    How is that logic even possible? So the "poor" makes $25,000 a year, and at a 10% tax rate would pay $2,500 - leaving $22,500 for living expenses. The "rich" who makes $1,000,000 at a 10% tax rate would pay $100,000. That's $97,500 more than the "poor." Seems like the "rich" is paying quite a...

    A Time to Dance

    But Tom - the first part is in the privacy of your bedroom. The second part was in front of God and everybody. Can't you see the difference? (facetiousness intended)

    Obama Eats His Words

    "Is that what I said? Who put that on my teleprompter?!?"

    Prosecutors say Marine sold "Nobama" stickers

    Sign your name to it, with no reference to your rank or your military affiliation. Totally legal.

    Prosecutors say Marine sold "Nobama" stickers

    I think the "Armed Forces" thing is where it gets fuzzy. We have a LOT of websites, organizations, etc. that are associated with the Armed Forces in one fashion or another; best I can say is, those are run by civilians, or ex-military members. I'm still not convinced that they can actually prove...

    Our Newest Jet Fighter - It is Special!

    Free - that was exactly my point. Even more so, the short-sightedness of those making the decisions to declare these airframes "fighters." They're not serious about the F-22 or F-35 being fighters; instead, they've looked at the world situation and said, "no one is even close to us, we don't...

    Prosecutors say Marine sold "Nobama" stickers

    The only thing they can get him on, is what they're apparently charging him with: Article 134, Conduct prejudicial to good order and discipline. But now the prosecution has to make the case that he's a Marine 24/7, and everything he does, both in uniform and out, represents the Marines. But...

    Luke 15:7

    Put it in context. Look at verse 2: And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. And the "book end" of the passage, verse 10: Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. So...

    Our Newest Jet Fighter - It is Special!

    I didn't miss the point at all. I specifically addressed the point. No matter what they say, if they actually thought there'd be a scenario where aerial dog-fighting was critical, they'd be building to the F-16 platform concept. The primary uses of these platforms are to be bomb carriers and/or...

    Our Newest Jet Fighter - It is Special!

    If anyone thought there'd be actual dog-fighting, they'd be building these planes around the F-16 concept. The F-22 and the F-35 aren't meant to be fighters; they're meant to be "missile and/or bomb launching platforms."

    Court: Think We Can't Overturn Laws?

    Nah; the Justice Department will offer the required 3-page, single-spaced response; and we'll hear something from the press secretaries about what he was really trying to say; and then this will become a non-issue for the media until June, when the Supremes issue the official report. Remember...

    Judge, Jury & Executioner

    For me, there is too much information missing to make a judgment about this subject. For example: Do we know for sure that the father didn't call the headmaster and make the request to have his daughter expelled? Do we know what the school's requirements about living arrangements are? I...

    Obama warns Supreme Court

    But that brings up an even stickier situation, doesn't it? What happens if the Supreme Court strikes it down, and the President ignores that and tries to enforce it? States then have legal precedent to refrain from complying ... which would necessarily lead to the President having to make a...

    I'm afraid, unfortunately, yes.

    Obama warns Supreme Court

    I thought Obama was some kind of constitution professor? And he implies that the Supreme Court somehow doesn't have the authority to overturn federal laws? Wow.

    Fundamental View of the Bible

    From post #23: I point you to a "rule" found further down in the Forum rules post: So far, your conversation for the last 8 pages has not addressed fundamentalism, but has extensively questioned translations (i.e., traditional view vs. modern view). You have yet to show that your topic is a...

    Why is DHS loading up on 450 million rounds of hollowpoints?

    Agh. I missed the part about it being an IDIQ contract. I'm sick of contracts at this point in my career. Our directorate "contracts expert" has made me re-write a contract three times now...before she finally admitted that she's applying O&M rules to an R&D contract.... As for receipt of extra...

    Fundamental View of the Bible

    Van, what was my very first response to you? It was asking why you placed this thread in the fundamental baptist section. Has that changed in 8 pages? You've incorrectly assumed that the term "debunk," used on page 2, was in reference to somehow proving you wrong. I say incorrectly because...

    Why is DHS loading up on 450 million rounds of hollowpoints?

    Actually, we have a few months to go; government fiscal year ends 30 September. My directorate submits funding requests quarterly; and we usually have end-of-year "fall-out" money that gets identified around August.
