Santa and Jesus are WHITE GODDAMNIT, says Megyn Kelly
http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/fox-news-host-megyn-kelly-says-jesus-and-santa-are-white-193322244.html
1. We'll leave Jesus being a "historical figure" alone here, that's up in the air (not even saying I don't think he might've been, just saying.)
2. ...Does it REALLY matter if people want a Black Santa? Really?
3. You're gonna tell me a Jew in the Middle East 2,000 years ago had pearly-white skin? O.o Um...no.

21 million Bitcoins
There are currently just over 12m Bitcoins in circulation. The number of Bitcoins allowed to exist is capped at 21m Bitcoins - once the 21 millionth Bitcoin has been mined, no new Bitcoins will be created.

What will happen when the 21m Bitcoin mark is reached?

...and the good Libs plug their ears, say, "La la la la la...I can't hear you!" really loud and still pretend that Obama is one heckuva great President, and that Obamacare - which resembles nothing like they supported and is exposed as an ever increasingly huge failure daily - is really still the ultimate health care solution.

What I can't wait is for them to claim the source is a conservative source when the last four winners of liar of the year from this source (and this is only their fifth time slecting a lie of the year) were all Republicans. Nope. Epic fail if they try.

In a close second, krellin's "I've got $1000 that says Romney will win!"

Yep, that is a close second. :-) Of course, just like Obama's spin, there is the spin that no one took him up on the offer according to the term's of the bet he was willing to give. But, unlike Obama, he at least set out the terms. Obama said "You like it. You keep it. Period." then tried to spin it as "under specific conditions".

2WL - ..and I still have my $1000, thank you very much. Nobody ever accepted the bet *as presented*, meaning accept it, and find someone to hold the money.
See, unlike lying sack of shit Democrats, who say one thing but mean and do somethign else, I actualy mean what I say. I presented a specific proposal which noone accepted as is. Then, after the fact, all the lying sack of shit Libtards crawl out of their holes and say they accepted the bet *in some other form*...sorry, that's not how prinicpled people play. Principled people say what they mean...Libtards hear what they want to hear, regradless of what is said.

In otehr words, You *still* lose.

I must say, Obama was a great campaigner, gained a ton of support, but he really dropped the ball.

Oh my God...a politician LIED?!
And lied to get ELECTED?
And is the PRESIDENT?
And the other party runs a 24-hour news cycle about this being the biggest thing EVER?
And 5 years ago the other party ran a 24-hour news cycle against THAT party's guy?

:O

But, obi, what do you think about the fact that his lie and his trying to stick to it *then* suddenly spin and backpedal and lie about the original lie got hit selected as "lie of the year, 2013"?

I love it when I point out that a liberal source thinks Obama is a lying piece of shit. Sure shuts them up real quick.

You'll never guess what my Biology teacher teached me...
Some not-too-fast girl thought there's oxygen in your urine.
The teacher explained: "there are no bubbles coming out of your wheenie!!" or something like that, roughly translated. She's hilarious.
In all honesty that was a small walk down memory lane, but anyway :)

Abolish the TSA
This editorial was in USA Today (!) and makes a pretty good case - the TSA has never actually caught a terrorist, its incentives do not line up with those of travelers, and the type of terrorism it was designed to deter doesn't actually happen anymore.

Inheritance Tax
I an inheritance tax (on sums larger than a certain amount, leaving a small sum to the heirs), keeps the capitalistic system going, levels the economic playing field somewhat, and requires the would-be dependents to go out and work. Furthermore, one who didn't want to pay in the form of taxes could give to the community through charitable donations. This system was supported by Andrew Carnegie in his "Gospel of Wealth", what arguments could be raised against it?

http://www.insideedition.com/headlines/7481-rich-teen-avoids-prison-for-fatal-dui-with-affluenza-defense

The son of rich Dallas parents got two years probation at a ultra rich rehab camp after killing 4 people and injured others when he drove at 70 mph into the group helping a motorist change a tire. The kid claimed he couldn't tell right from wrong because his parents bought him everything including apparently the judge.

Gunboat Games
What is the best way to improve at gunboat games? I've been told several times that I am a worthless waste of space. And I would like to become a waste of space with a minuscule bit of worth. How can I bridge the gap? I tend to do better when I can manipulate people into what I want them to do.
