I think the only game I was ever disconcertingly good at was Mechwarrior 2. Used to play it online back when Mplayer was a thing, before they merged with gamespy. Class 4 is for bitches, Class 1 is how the true badasses separate themselves. If you know wtf I'm talking about, then kudos and...

It's funny that you are trying so hard to make this fit the narrative you have in your head. You saw this story and immediately thought "GOD DAMNED REPUBLICANS", and after seeing that this idiot is in fact a Democrat you just don't know what to do with yourself. Obviously he must be a southern...

Umm... He's a Democrat....

Is there any data to back up this claim about Fox viewers limited attention span? It seems like a pretty generalized throwaway insult. Is everybody who disagrees with you an idiot? The fact that you disagree with Fox's perspective on current events doesn't make them liars. It doesn't even make...

Do you think Fox should be shut down? If so, on what grounds? Or perhaps you imagine that they should be forced to broadcast some kind of disclaimer about how it's only entertainment during commercial breaks? I don't think they think it's supposed to be entertainment. No more entertaining than...

I haven't seen the movie or "Fox News'" comments about it, so I won't come down either way there. I do however really get a kick out of the people who hate Fox, and accuse it of not being news blah blah, etc.. etc... Does Fox lean to the right? Yeah, it sure does, but that doesn't mean it isn't...

I think its funny how according to you, in a blue state school, that the teachers tried desperately to absolve Kennedy (beloved of liberals historical reality notwithstanding) of any responsibility for going into Vietnam, and try to demonize Johnson, (I guess because he was from Texas?) even...

To a simple mind, a thing must be all one way or the other. You likely reimagined the way you were taught history prior to joining "international relations" so that once you were "enlightened" you could look back with disdain on all the bias you suddenly saw in the curriculum that was taught to...

Look, I'm not religious or anything, but lay off the bible a little man. Have people killed in its name before? Yes. Have people slaughtered in the name of Allah and the Koran before as well? Yup. What about Mars and Ares the Roman and Greek gods of war? Yup. What about in the name of Odin and...

Don't let your blind partisan hatred of the scapegoat liberalism has set up for you blind you to the true evil that has existed just in this century alone. Seriously.... Rupert Murdock? What garbage.

True, but consider that these things were all invented long before man began recording history on cave walls, and I doubt very much that one single individual "invented" any of them anyways. They were byproducts of the situation. Our tribe has a dispute with this other tribe over who gets to let...

The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki saved millions of Japanese and American, military and civilian lives. Japan started the war, and they could have surrendered at any time. The American high command was preparing an invasion of mainland Japan to end the war. This would have resulted in an...

What ridiculous trash. Tobacco companies don't kill anybody. They sell a product. They have not once ever forced anyone to buy it. If you are stupid enough to use it until it kills you, then that's your choice. Saying tobacco companies kill people is no different than saying they were killed by...

Lenin wasn't a "strongman" in the traditional sense, because he was one of the founders of the revolution. The Soviet Union was founded out of the ashes of a corrupt monarchy. I never said Every single leader of communist nations is evil, I said every communist GOVERNMENT eventually resorts to...

This is what runs through the minds of all communist leaders. They ALL think they are doing the right thing. They ALL believe that if they can just change people's thinking, that things will improve, and they ALL in the end resort to brutality, because asking nicely for every single person in a...
