    • Planes need windows that open
    • When there's a fire on a plane, you need more oxygen

    We need to cut funding to the sciences in America. The Republicans aren't quite at the point where they will Darwin themselves to death. With a little push...they will be.

    Well, to be fair, when there's a fire on the plane you would need more oxygen.

    The plane itself, though, not so much.

    There's not much oxygen up there...so opening the windows may snuff out the fire (and the passengers) while tearing the plane apart.

    Problem...solved?

    Are you going to vote for the WAY a man says something, or WHAT he says?

    And if it's the former, please refrain from criticizing ANY other person's vote as you have no standing to do so.

    THIS is refreshing at least in part BECAUSE it's not your typical political speech.

    It's even dumber in context: there was a fire on his wife's plane, and here he is thinking it's a good idea to introduce more oxygen into the cabin.

    :jayzus:

    I'm sure if the captain thought his passengers were in danger of asphyxiating, he would have deployed the oxygen masks.

    Do you know how incredibly rude this reply is? You've basically just called me a liar. This is why it isn't worth my time to put any effort into discussion with you or people like you. You show no respect for anyone that doesn't share your own tiny little prejudiced views. Go ahead. Show me more three posts where I've said anything good about Romney or that I was going to vote for him.

    You know what? Don't bother. Fuck you. And fuck all the little echo chamber sycophants who repped you.

    Um, yeah, it's pretty hard to duplicate a result that never happened.

    Come on Lanz, why can't we give warnings out for rudeness?

    So our basic choice this time is between a left boob or a right boob.

    That's why we need a viable third-boob option

    Peggy Noonan, Reagan speechwriter:

    "The Romney campaign has to get turned around. This week I called it incompetent, but only because I was being polite. I really meant 'rolling calamity.'"

    And like a typical Wall St. CEO, Mitt happily handed out bonuses to people on his campaign.

    Remember, boys and girls, what you really want to do is throw out all the politicians and let a businessman run things. :yes:

    I'd say that calling out a clear case of someone reinforcing the two party system is a fair call.

    You want to know how I know the Romney campaign is in trouble? I have a close friend who just a bit to the right of Genghis Khan. This friend voted for Ron Paul last time around. Said friend is voting for Obama come November :bergman:
