Maybe. But who says 'easy' was what he intended it to be? The cool thing about inventing is that there's so many different ways to achieve the same result. For example: lacking screens for the truck windows, I bought a mesh popup laundry hamper, cut the sides apart, and they work [almost]...

GOP governor forces school districts to partner with ‘faith-based’ groups for taxpayer-funded program

There's sufficient evidence to convict them of being imbeciles, idiots and morons, though. School officials have a pretty good read on the students, as in: troublemakers, geeks, jokers, etc. This kid was not known for being a troublemaker or a joker, but he was known for being an electronics...

Debt is a necessary evil [how many of us could pay cash for a house? Or even an education?] that the Republicans publicly rail against, but do their share of multiplying. Except they prefer spending the money for the military [and not even the troops - just the flashy toys and secret 'black ops'...

The US government spent hundreds of millions on Afghan health clinics it's not sure it can find I can find dozens more examples that prove there is no shortage of money, just a shortage of responsible spending and oversight.

"We're" far from broke - there's plenty of money, the question is what to spend it on. [And there'd be more money if the many 'loopholes' that are abused were closed off, too]. Education, health care, infrastructure, those are investments in a common future. "Business friendly" policies are how...

Typical attention seeking teenage boys seeking to impress 8th grade girls generally use sports, practical jokes, and pranks. It would never occur to them to build an electronic gizmo, because 8th grade girls aren't much interested in boys' brains [if that isn't an oxymoron :eek:], and also too...

I was dismayed [but not surprised] to hear the reaction of one student afterwards, who said he thinks government shouldn't be responsible for addressing poverty - that's strictly the church's business. At least it was a start at dialogue across the aisle.

The make believe issue is that voter fraud occurs in any form that is substantial enough to require new regulations on the scale proposed. It's the same as drug testing welfare recipients: the fact that 2 or 3 [out of thousands] are guilty doesn't justify the laws proposed to eliminate it -...

Yes and no. Yes, it would matter, because it would change my opinion of their character. And no, because it wouldn't change my vote. Not a single Republican candidate reflects my views on what needs to happen to "make America great again".

I lived in Texas for a couple years, and found most people were wonderful. I believe your current leadership [and the last governor] are wrong on many issues, but I can say the same [and do] about the governor of Ohio. And lots of other states. That doesn't reflect on the people, when you...

I'll tell you the last time RLENT & I disagreed: when we went to Starbucks and he thought two cups of coffee for $10 was reasonable. lol. [I didn't, but the company was excellent, so there's that.];) Seriously: the reason we usually agree is that we both seek the truth, not an echo chamber that...

If Obama's biggest obstacle to attaining nuclear disarmament [at least in Iran] isn't Congress, WTH is? The European nations are on board, but the usual suspects are threatening mayhem if the deal goes through. In hindsight, the Nobel Committee was misguided, but I think their goal was...

Bristol Palin slams White House invite for Ahmed Mohamed "Encourages strife"? I thought he was encouraging using one's head for more than a hat rack - something I doubt that Bristol Palin knows anything about. But hey - she's not from Texas! ;)

Just read that Davis has instructed the one deputy clerk assigned to hand out marriage licenses to refrain from using his title "Deputy Clerk", and to sign them as a notary instead. I predict the judge isn't going to like that - he told her not to interfere, and that sure sounds like...

I believe an honest appraisal of cost/benefits would show the NFL as a net loser, but the point about giving overgrown men prone to outbursts of sudden physical violence employment prospects was something I've never considered, lol. Now that I have, I think it'd be much wiser to provide them...
