A BANANA STICKER!

My life is complete.

thank you

Oh, I see. I never got any translation for that story, had to figure that out myself. Last year I did read Othello, with the original text on one page, and a modern translation on the other. Sorry, but that dialect is just difficult to pick up.

Your definition of 'sheeple' is purely personal, but hey if you want it to trend; have fun. No fucks on that subject.

And, again, you'd think that a Private First Class(an entry level rank(like manning)) wouldn't have access to hundreds of thousands of classified documents, but here we are. You don't know me, my name, my rank, or what I do in the military so don't be so fast to assume anything.

A 'foot soldier?' I didn't know anything still used that term. Is it 1943? Listen, you can try to figure this out for as long as you like by back-reading through my posts, but again... you still don't know exactly what I do, nor will you. And just for fun, and just as a little hint... Here you go:

What are you, stupid? I just said you won't find out.

Yes, yes it is. Manning's Job was to support units with critical Intelligence. Units who, while in time sensitive and critical positions had to act upon that intelligence. I'm not a 'foot soldier.' Listen, honestly... I'm getting bored with this, really bored, but my ego keeps bringing me back. Here's my peace offering: I really don't give that many fucks about Manning, the damage is done and lessons were learned from it. I enjoyed the argument, I hope you did too. Have fun doing whatever you want to do next.

My clearance level is really none of your concern. And the 'other guy' was not informed, as he had no idea of the difference between military justice and civilian justice. They do not coincide, unless the military deems so. Military Justice takes precedence in the US legal system.

Sheeple also means executing without critical thought by the way, so yes, it is ironic.
And there you go again "my clearance level is none of your concern." For you to have sensitive information on this case you would have either needed to be a high up person. Very high, or possibly a analyst, still decently high up. Also, he didn't say civilian court?

A soldier is not bound by orders when that order conflicts with legality. That's what 'Lawful Order' means. If my Platoon Leader tells me to shoot a civilian, and I don't, I am not subject to punishment, he is however. And 'sheeple' isn't elitist. Sheep travel in flocks, so do most opinionated people. It's safest to stay in the majority. I'm arguing for the minority on this subject.

Yeah, but any other orders you must follow. You have to see the ironic side to the insult. Also don't act like the other guy wasn't informed because he didn't share your opinion on the subject. I doubt you're high up enough to be privy to sensitive information, so you wouldn't be much better.

When you say Romeo and Juliet is 8th grade reading level, do you mean the translation or in Shakespearean? In freshman year we read the original and I found pretty difficult.

Original text with meanings for certain words on the next page.

Oh, I see. I never got any translation for that story, had to figure that out myself. Last year I did read Othello, with the original text on one page, and a modern translation on the other. Sorry, but that dialect is just difficult to pick up.

If Ron Paul advocates for the people to vote in the law so extremely, then why does he bother running for President? Why doesn't he just go on to become a political commentator, instead of wasting funding and putting in earmarks for bills he doesn't even support? If he truly believed in public sovereignty, why does he allow himself to have the ability to even funnel those funds to the opposition of what his platform and therefore slapping his supporters in the face, especially the ones that put in some of that money?

A Free Market economy would put smaller businesses in a hunting range of monopolization, workers under risk of unfair treatment from businesses, and even banks would be less vulnerable because now there's no government to tell them what they can and can't do, and if a stock market crash ensues, or the banks fail in an awful investment scheme, who's going to start putting in money to fix that?

Ron Paul has made no sign of initiative that he'd ever replace or reform The Fed into something different, only that he would completely remove it and swap it with the Gold Standard, which would cause a series of problems economically for a nation as large as the US.

My problem is so many of Ron Paul's supporters, like the ones in this very thread, are so fanatical over him, that they treat him like some kind of messiah, all the while having no knowledge of most of his positions or the information regarding the issues he takes a stand on. Not to mention that they ignore the potential that a politician can back down on what he says at any time once he gains the position he sought for.

In regards to his views on abortion, they are reasonable considering he worked as an obstetrician for decades before he got into politics. Would he let these views affect his position as president? No, because the 10th amendment grants the state government power to legislate on the matter, not the federal.

On your statements regarding the Federal Reserve, he more so pushes for accountability on the Federal Reserve's part, hence the slogan "Audit the Fed." This was seen in the bill he introduced, HR 1207 -- The Federal Reserve Transparency Act.

"I rise to introduce the Federal Reserve Transparency Act. Throughout its nearly 100-year history, the Federal Reserve has presided over the near-complete destruction of the United States dollar. Since 1913 the dollar has lost over 95% of its purchasing power, aided and abetted by the Federal Reserve’s loose monetary policy. How long will we as a Congress stand idly by while hard-working Americans see their savings eaten away by inflation? Only big-spending politicians and politically favored bankers benefit from inflation....

...The Federal Reserve Transparency Act would eliminate restrictions on GAO audits of the Federal Reserve and open Fed operations to enhanced scrutiny. We hear officials constantly lauding the benefits of transparency and especially bemoaning the opacity of the Fed, its monetary policy, and its funding facilities. By opening all Fed operations to a GAO audit and calling for such an audit to be completed by the end of 2010, the Federal Reserve Transparency Act would achieve much-needed transparency of the Federal Reserve. I urge my colleagues to support this bill."

Though he hopes for the eventual (and I believe inevitable) collapse of the Federal Reserve, it's not a matter of doing so overnight. It's a matter of systematically taking measures to fix a flawed system.

We don't know if he would or wouldn't let his views affect his position as President. That's the thing; he's a politician, and politicians easily put on a different face once they go presidential.
He can do other things regarding his position that can add to his views, like appoint Supreme Court justices that would more likely than not support his views on creationism (he's also a creationist) and abortion, and no one would even realize until a major case would roll into the big court house. You don't need to have direct access to federal to be able to reach federal. Not to mention his power to veto.

Like I said, the Fed isn't a good thing, but it's necessary for inflation control, because inflation is a big part necessity for our exports to be more purchasable from other foreign business dealings. If you have an excessive amount of deflation; no one buys our products - and considering we're not the industrial power we used to be, (we handed that baton to third world countries and China thanks to outsourcing) that's a pretty big deal.

With that said, I agree Fed transparency is a good thing; there's a lot of things I find agreeable with Paul's policies, but there's also a lot of his policies that take a more extreme end.

His push for the Gold standard would require him to end the Fed completely by eliminating any purpose of having it all. The gold standard means inflation and deflation can't be controlled through the money supply, and at the same time we might have a limited money supply because there isn't a whole lot of gold in the world that can represent a nation as big as the US' cash flow. That's why at one point while we had the Gold standard, it was illegal to hoard non-jewelry gold (such as gold bars and nuggets) because it was believed that the hoarders were killing our economy.

Let's face it, that's never gonna happen.

Welcome to the Summer.

I think he meant he was Big Boss and he thought we were confusing him with Solid Snake

No He's right. Without David Hayter, he will never be Snake...

No wonder Snake sounded like he was gargling glass more than usual...

To be perfectly clear here, The main character, Old Snake (Solid Snake) is a completely different person than Big Boss.

Yes, and we hailed to the king, and blessed the cycle.

Did you get cool presents?

Yes, I got the thing.

What would Grirtina's be?

Best day of my life.
