I seriously tried to turn the questions back on.
But tumblr is being all ridiculous on me.  So I give up for tonight.  Will try again tomorrow.  Night!

Recommend me...OR ELSE. →
No but really, I know politics are possibly not on the forefront of your mind like they were in the run up to the election, but I’d still very much appreciate a recommendation to the directory in the politics section this week.  Thank you and thank you! P.S. What is up with my hair today?!  It got all…pointy…or something…on the bottom.

Ron Paul: Don't Raise the Debt Ceiling! →
The upcoming vote will provide an interesting litmus test for the new Republican congressional majority, especially those new members closely identified with Tea Party voters. The debt ceiling law, passed in 1917, enables Congress to place a statutory cap on the total amount of government debt rather than having to approve each individual Treasury bond offering. It also, however, forces Congress...

Mark Ruffalo is a terrorist. →
…oooor so says the government, all because he had the audacity to promote a film which exposes abuses of the persons and property of people living in the areas where natural gas is drilled (watch this clip from the Daily Show for a brief explanation). I don’t support government regulation of business, of course, but the very point of government is to prosecute criminal abuses like...

cynicalpatriot: TSA Operator Caught Masturbating as HS Girls Team Passes Security http://bit.ly/f8h6c3 teaparty libertarian tcot majority resistnet infowars I hate the TSA.  A lot.  You can look at my previous posts and know that.  But this story simply isn’t true.  Would it surprise me if it was?  No, of course not.  But it isn’t — and it says so right in the story itself: ...

P.S. I’m not sure if asking for votes is bad Reddit etiquette.  I’ve never used the site myself.  If it’s bad form, can you let me know with a reblog?  XD

Dear followers,
I’m not good at writing you love letters like I know good bloggers do.  But I really am happy to have you around.  I try to rotate following you so that I can see what most everyone is up to for a little while.  I’m almost never disappointed, and would totally follow all of you if it wouldn’t make it completely meaningless through information overload. But for real, yo.  If I...

evilteabagger: This is literally what I was just thinking. There are some events which you can join even if you’re not flying.  This one’s in DC, for instance.  And if you’re not in the DC area, it’s pretty easy to duplicate:  Just make some flyers, call the airport to make sure you won’t get kicked out (or don’t XD), gather five or ten people, and make the...

A Message From a TSA Full-Body Scanner →
There’s been quite a bit of scuttlebutt in the press and amongst the civil liberties crowd about what we—myself and my fellow full-body scanners—are coming to your airports to do. What is our real purpose? How invasive, truly, are these full-body scans? Will air travel, over time, become somehow less dignified, less “private”? I’d like to take the opportunity of...

Questions, questions?
Actually, I’m turning off questions for the upcoming week.  I’m going to be away for Thanksgiving, and I’m not sure how regular internet access will be.  But I’ll turn the questions back on when I get back, I promise!  And you’ll probably get a few posts out of me anyway…XD

thepursuivant asked: So do you believe in sacrificing you beliefs for the greater good of the country? For example, I'm a republican and I'm on the fence about whether or not same sex marriages should be allowed. On one hand, I can see the point of view of gay men and women. If my rights to marry the person I love were taken away, or never given to me, I would be furious. But on the other hand, I feel like...

maxshock asked: Why do you think the (most of the) public in America have completely forgotten that Republican policies actually caused the financial disaster? Why do they think that the economy is going to be fixed by stopping gay people being allowed to marry?

Over here, in Britain, we luckily don't have a mainstream party of such repression (yes, I'd go so far to say that) but I dunno...
