My view on the minimum wage is that market forces have already been pushing entry-level wages to a point past $5.15, but you just have a few hold-outs that refuse to knowledge the market-based increase. Thus, you get high turn-over in entry level work when workers realize how much more they could be making other places. Ideally, employers should be raising wages on their own, but refuse to acknowledge that paying workers more to retain them improves efficiency.

Mark my words, if the Democrats in Congress cut off funding for this war, the Republicans will score big politically by portraying the move as putting the troops in immediate danger. If there's one thing I've learned since Bush has taken office, its that no lie is too dumb for the majority of the public to believe.

Global warming is defined as an increase in the average temperature of the earth's atmosphere. The theory doesn't say it makes it warm all the time, just warmer on average. Do people really not know that?

Trust me, you're better off.

Yeah, that was pretty bad.

Editted for reasons elaborated on below.

You're right.

CNN finally picked up the story, and according to them there was one person wearing blackface.

Biden should do what I do and save his dumb ass, condescending, ignorant comments for anonymous posts on internet message boards.

Because your opinion matters so much to me.

Some things are worth repeating until the idiots involved get the point.

Ahem.

And, in my opinion, none of you know enough about music to make a better White Album than the Beatles did. holy shit, what in the hell are you talking about? Ever heard of it? edit: Yes, you can be easily confused by someone's post when you edit half of it out.

I don't think he actually watched the video.

I'm glad he has you as his lawyer, because he was doing an exceptionally bad job attacking me on his own. You guys can attack me, attack my marriage, attack my career, attack my dog, whatever...but that doesn't change my opinion about the White Album. And, in my opinion, none of you know enough about music to make a better White Album than the Beatles did.

Best I could come up with, since my wife was nagging me to go to marriage counselling as I wrote it.

That's all true, but since John Kerry got politically raped over a bad joke a few months ago, I really can't blame her for playing it safe.

This thread has my 3 favorite attacks on me: 1. Someone implying I'm bad at my chosen profession because they didn't like something I said that has nothing to do with my profession. 2. The suggestion that my marriage would be in better shape if only I didn't post something the suggester didn't agree with. 3. A comparison to TheMikeSC because I insulted someone who actually deserved it. **yawn** There must be some kind of "How to Start a Flame War with SuperJerk" talking points sheet I don't know about.

I'm guessing you missed the point of my last post because you're illiterate.

Damned if you do...damned if you don't. If she hadn't retracted it, the conservatives would being going bonkers over how she called her own husband evil.

I guess I just didn't realize that old men walking and slowly hitting tiny balls into tiny holes was the kind of action-packed programming the HD market had been waiting for. My mistake.

What was the joke?

JMS started on FF with issue #527, published back in the summer of 2005. Ironically, his first storyline featured Reed taking on the U.S. government over its attempts to use his technology create its own super-heroes. I shit you not.

Just saying.

sorry. i didnt realise tsm had punctured rusty hooks into your eye lids & forced you to read this thread. for a teacher, you're not very tolerant. you're intolerant to a fault. dare i say you're being a jerk. For a random guy I've never heard of posting on an internet message board, you seem like someone who is unable to comprehend the difference between an enthusiastic, yet facetious, comment intended to make a point, and an actual attempt at commanding people to do my bidding. Also, by claiming that if I do not agree with the attempts to edit the White Album I should not be reading this thread, you are being intolerant of my right to disagree or offer criticism of other's opinions.
