Corsi is a whacko and Joe Arpaio is a jack booted thug. That's the bottom line. I live in AZ and know them both. I live in AZ too and disagree with that outrageous Arpaio remark. Cracks me up that people get pissed when cops do their job too well  No, they only get pissed when people like Shurf Joe start acting like the Secret Police from a Banana Republic by using their office and the taxpayer's money to make power grabs and get revenge on people who oppose their heavy-handed dealings. Dozens of courts across this country have said these allegations of Obama's ineligibility have zero merit. What makes this particular tin-plated dictator from a shithole county think he has ANY jurisdiction in this matter? But hey, I guess he's buying into the Tea Party fantasy that he'll be the one to march into the White House like he's Chuck Friggin Norris and slap the cuffs on Obama? I'd bet the US Secret Service would have a thing or two to say about that. No, this isn't a cop doing his job, this is a nutbar who is going around the bend getting off on his own arrogance. Pride cometh before the fall. -Kerry O. You don't know what your talking about. Sheriff Joe is running for re-election and him winning is a no brainer. Maricopa county sans some of the criminals and all of those who support criminal activity don't like him and that's about it. You wanna talk about a shurf who should be tarred and feathered look no further than shurf droopdick er, I mean dupnick! Well *I* didn't elect him and I'm not moving to Maricopa County in this lifetime. He has NO STANDING in the Birther case and he's only doing it for the publicity and the money.j And BTW, since when is acting as Rick Perry's bodyguard some sort of Maricopa Co. 'official business'? Again, JMO, but he's more interested in the Arapaio Brand than any kind of justice. As Frontier Lawyers go, he's not that particularly interesting. I guess he could always get cast as the Shurf in Smokey & The Bandit Five, though. -Kerry O. |

Explain the fact that the Birthers have not won even ONE case in even ONE court in the United States and the 'contradictions' becomes obvious-- the Birthers 'case' is a pack of Internet BS repeated ad nauseum by people who have NO accountability. They are throwing out as much manufactured BS as they can, since in places like this one, there is no burden of proof. When there is, such as in courts of law, this manufactured garbage gets treated with all the respect it is due-- NONE. -Kerry O. |

just keep waiting its coming ha ha ha ha get old copies of omni and see everything that never happened they even make electric lawnmowers today so they wont work there was an engine out like this in the 90s where is it? wheres all Nikola Teslas inventions? i guess they didnt work ha ha ha ha There have been several "detonation cycle" engines tried in the 90's but based on pistons and couldn't take the shock and heat. This is the first rotary version I've seen. Where do you find information on a rotary version in the 90's? Now the question I have is its application outside of a typical hybrid vehicle. Could you say put this in a 4x4 truck and get your towing power etc but also improve your fuel efficiency by 3X? I mean a truck/SUV getting 50-60 mpg would be awesome. It would if it was a hybrid. The problem with this engine is similar to the early 60's motorcycle two strokes, the power band was at a very narrow band of rpm; hence no low end torque. However electric motors have full torque at zero rpm so it would be great in an suv hybrid. Exactly, and a sister technology you see everyday is at work on the nation's railroads. All modern Diesel locomotive powertrains are hybrids. The engineering that went into systems like the General Electric Dash 8 is truly impressive! One possible disadvantage I see to this new propulsion system is that it might be difficult to adapt to an ethanol-based energy strategy. Since ethanol has a significantly higher equivalent octane rating than conventional hydrocarbon fuels, thus not lending itself quite so readily to a detonation-mode engine. Still, there might be a workaround for that too, waiting to be discovered or invented. Imagine what room-temperature superconductor tech could add to hybrid system design. Although I doubt I'll live to see it, I think the next hundred years will see us developing superior ways to move ourselves and wares from place to place without enriching the usual suspects that are making the world a miserable place. Interesting thread, thanks for posting it! -Kerry O. |

I would, but it's illegal to send feces in the mail. I'm SO sick of people continuing to question President Obama's place of birth. What seems to be the problem with these people? Is Obama's skin not white enough for them? I suspect Shurf Joe is auditioning early for the lead in Fox News' production of "Don Quixote". Or was it "Moby Birther" and the part was Capt. Ahab? Shurf Joe does kinda look like he could play a good Capt. Ahab, but then most of the stars in the Birther Kingdom could. Can't you just hear them rehearsing their lines in their little codpieces: "From hell's heart I stab at thee; for hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee. Ye damned whale. " - They're completely out of touch with reality. Totally Unglued. Which is probably why the courts have mercy on them and don't throw them in jail for contempt of court. -Kerry O. |

The Canaanites were not a peaceful people. They practiced human sacrifice and that whole area was impassable by outsiders due to their aggression. It's almost like you are defending the inbreed hill people in the "Hills Have Eyes". After the Canaanite civilizations were destroyed, trade opened up between Africa and Asia, allowing for the progress of civilization. No, I was talking about the Midianites. Moses was even married to a Midianite woman. There was a sham excuse made up for their slaughter having to do with the rather nebulous 'They offended the Lord Thy God' via collusion or sexual impropriety or somesuch. Unlike in modern morality where we don't hold children responsible for the sins of the parents, they killed them without mercy. And let's not forget that supposedly, God ordered Abraham to sacrifice his child, but changed his mind at the last minute or something. What kind of sick test was that? Again, in these times, any parent doing something like that would have the child taken from him and put in jail to rot. And "God told me to do it' would NOT be a defense. Oh yeah, I know--- different times, different mores. Except when it comes to things like homosexuality, which is still morally wrong in the modern book of Fundie morality. -Kerry O. |

He is far from done. As he has been adequate for the most part up to now (as presidents go)... If he simply steps a bit more with the right leg. He will sweep the country. The only thing holding him back from this achievement. Is the decided left lean. Unemployment got worse on his watch and it is rising again. Government spending has not slowed down, he promised to bring the country together and we are more divided than ever. The border is wide open and keeps blowing smoke up our as telling us its more secure now than ever. He shoved Obamacare down every ones throats. The price of food has shot up on his watch, gas prices are still unreasonable. Yeah, he'll sweep the country. The Republicans have so damaged their brand that even Romeny is going to have a hard time getting elected. You say the country is divided, but what was the first response from Mitch McConnell, the top Republican in the Senate? He stated that his first priority was to make sure Obama was a one term president. Talk about throwing down the gauntlet!! I also call ******** on your premise that unemployment is rising - the January numbers show it went DOWN to 8.3%- and on you immigration numbers--deportations are well up over what they were in the Bush Administration. -Kerry O. |

And also, it's pretty damn funny what you say about people being maimed and killed by using bad/inferior products when 90 percent of what you see on the shelves here in American is imported from "A" country which works and produces goods with virtually NO safety regs in place...Not to mention the education level of the workers...No, the truth of the matter is American blue color workers got soft, they got lazy...and the reason they did is because government allowed it, government endorsed it, government capitalized on it (ie Unions for one).... And yet, Toyota makes cars with the most domestic content in them right here in the United States, and does it with the same unionized workforce you're blaming for all the ills of economy. And I think that if you check, American workers last year were again the most productive in the world. But, when you have 1%-ers like the Steve Jobs shutting down his state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in the United States so he could get a $500 iPad built for about $6 in labor in China as opposed to $22 here. Of course the 'lazy blue-collar worker' can't compete with the dormitory-dwelling, 72 hour-work-week-child-laborer who gets his healthcare from the government and a pittance from the 'free market' bosses in China. Yet, you have lots of 1% ers damning Socialism in the light of day while they sneak off to get in bed with them in smoke-filled rooms where the sun doesn't shine when they want cheap stuff. But do keep up the rhetoric-- there are a lot more 'lazy blue collar workers' who are going to vote in the upcoming election than there are 'capitalists' cozying up to China for cheap good made with stolen intellectual property. And they're getting pretty fed up with politicians who demonstrate every day that they have no clue what the middle class has been through. Sooner or later the party bosses in China are going to try to displace them and the 1%ers here who own them, and it'll be the 'lazy blue collar workers' who most likely will be the ones pulling the triggers for the chickenhawks if that happens. You might consider that and 'ratchet' it back a notch or four. -Kerry O. |

Ah, but YOU, a habitually staunch defender of biblical inerrancy, claim they DID happen and that the slaughter of those children was not only morally justified, but was also in their best interests since they would have died in the desert anyway without the care of their slaughtered parents. So you think it would have been better to leave those children to die in the desert? Nice False Dichotomy, but just about what one expects from someone mired in dogmatism. I'm sure you and Moses could have found a better solution than abandoning innocents in the desert or running them through with weapons. You know, like NOT exterminating a peaceful people and justifying it on religious grounds in the first place. It's been said that a society's real character is demonstrated by how it treats people who can't fight back. -Kerry O. |

http://www.scribd.com/doc/80417613/Farrar-Welden-Swensson-Powell-v-Obama-Judge-Malihi-Final-Decision-Georgia-Ballot-Challenge-2-3-2012 Apparently Obama is going to be on the ballot in Georgia. The Birthers lose yet again, keeping their perfect record intact-- even in front of a judge who bent over backwards to give them every opportunity to snatch Victory from the jaws of Defeat. Sounds like their motions in Illinois are going to similarly get nuked on the merits. Bet there are a lot of Birthers crying in their beers again tonight while kicking the toy box and screaming "CONSPIRACY!!!!" And being unable to learn from their inevitable mistakes, they'll probably break open a new case of turd polish to spiff up their next (losing) court case. -Kerry O. |

Knowing too, that you believe that there was nothing morally wrong with the Moses and the Israelites committing genocide against Old Testament peoples like the Midianites, one could make a pretty good case about your being similarly mired in dogmatism. I don't see anything wrong with it. When read in context, it's actually easily justified morally. I rest my case. Anyone using religious dogma to justify the slaughter of children IS mired in dogmatism. -Kerry O. Anyone who is morally outraged by events he claims never happened has too much time on his hands. Ah, but YOU, a habitually staunch defender of biblical inerrancy, claim they DID happen and that the slaughter of those children was not only morally justified, but was also in their best interests since they would have died in the desert anyway without the care of their slaughtered parents. I just think it's strange that people who don't want Evolution taught in the schools, who only want their Biblical version of Moral Truth to have a privileged place on that stage, suddenly get cold feet when bloodthirsty tales of Old Testament genocides get put on the table. -Kerry O. |

• "Debating Creationists on the topic of Evolution is rather like trying to play chess with a pigeon; it knocks the pieces over, craps on the board, and flies back to its flock to claim victory." - Scott D. Weitzenhoffer This pigeon just put all you atheists into checkmate. Hardly. You may have moved a pawn but saying you "just put all you atheists into checkmate" is rather like... hell, a theist saying he "just put all you atheists into checkmate" after offering a smidgen of a fraction of an argument to counter the centuries of evidence and reason which has piled up against his mythological beliefs (apologies for being redundant but this was the only apt comparison). PS: I haven't checked this thread in a couple of days & didn't expect it to run for 13 pages, so forgive me if it takes a while to catch up. Thankya Okay, let me explain this to you. You asked the following: Why is it that so many theists have a problem with the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection as proposed by Darwin? Sorry to break it to you buddy boy, but the "Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection as proposed by Darwin" has been soundly rejected by modern science. If you knew what you were talking about, you would be talking about "punctuated equalibria". You are dogmatic in your beliefs, you are so sure that they are true, that you don't even need to know what they are. That's what I schooled you on or would have, if you had read the first page of the thread. What's that you say? That wasn't really the point and who cares if it's now punctuated equalibria, it's still a theory of evolution? Well, friend, there are more Christians who believe in the theory of evolution (notice I didn't say "as proposed by Darwin) than there are atheists in the world. Well, I noticed that *you* also didn't say (at least in this thread) that *you* used to be an atheist. Is this a Saul-to-Paul deal, where Paul used to persecute Christians before he 'evolved' into the writer of a good portion of the New Testament? Knowing too, that you believe that there was nothing morally wrong with the Moses and the Israelites committing genocide against Old Testament peoples like the Midianites, one could make a pretty good case about your being similarly mired in dogmatism. Read any good Sam Harris books lately? :) -Kerry O. |

Why is it that so many theists have a problem with the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection as proposed by Darwin? Why is it so hard for them to accept that after a few thousand years of development mankind began to use the brainpower granted them [by God?] to observe the natural world and develop an explanation of the origin and evolution of biological beings using reason, logic and evidence - rather than the guesswork and superstison of primitive desert-dwellers who knew far less than their descendants would? Why should a 7000(?) year old theory be held accountable to a 150 year old theory? It was forgivable of primitive Man to believe in Geocentricism, since from our perspective is does indeed appear that the heavens revolve around a static Earth. Now we know the truth about our planet's position in the cosmos - but we do not grant the theory of Geoncentricism the same respect that we do of Creationism, yet we now have far better explanations for the origins of life than those hypothesised by ancient Hebrews. So why is it that modern-day theists easily accept that our planet orbits around a star yet find it so difficult to acknowledge that humans are just another species of animal? Why believe in gravity but not evolution? Because the more militant believer is heavily invested both emotionally and intellectualy in biblical inerrancy, and Evolution is a direct challenge to that principle. In fact, much of science is-- it's just that some aspects of science can more easily be spun to support biblical inerrancy than others. Gravity can be supported by direct observation and measurement. Evolution, not so much. And when more compelling and irrefutable proof for Evolution is found, the more militant believer will just recalibrate and call Evolution a metaphor that STILL supports her position, just not as literally as once was claimed. Having already lost the fight to smother Evolution in its creche and having also lost the fight to keep it out of the Institutions of learning, the militant believer is all " ...mad as hell and we're not going to take it anymore." And unable to bring back the Spanish Inquisition to give their beliefs the force of Law without debate and with intmidation, they mostly lose their cases to have their beliefs supplant scientific realities in impartial courts where reasoned debate is the only tools allowed past the doors. -Kerry O. |

Read it again:
Defendant fails to provide any legal authority to support his motion to quash the subpoena to attend. Defendant’s motion suggests that no President should be compelled to attend a Court hearing. <b> This may be correct.</b> But Defendant has failed to enlighten the Court with any legal authority. Nowhere in this ruling is there an order to appear. It's just saying the motion to quash the subpoenas is deficient. There will be no "trial". It's just an administrative hearing and what will happen next is that Obama's local legal representative will probably get some heavy-hitter legal talent to resubmit the motion. And this time it won't be deficient. Bubble> Burst. Obama 100, Birthers 0. Taitz may even be sanctioned yet a second time in Georgia after the Obama team files a complaint about her bad faith frivilous lawsuits. Last time she was fined $20,000 by a Federal judge in the middle district of Georgia. -Kerry O. |

Seriously, can we wait until Super Tuesday's over before announcing the nominee? First, it will be Romney the sick Mormon liberal, or the religious freak Santorum, now its Newt the lying Southern snake, who's next, whoever wins the next state, Florida. C'mon people have a little sense and let the fat lady sing, you know, (some huge opera singer). Seriously, is this the very best the nation has?? You've got to be kidding me.         But wait, voters, there's more! For just a few dollars more, you can vote for Donald Trump as an Independent. Newt Gingrich-- the new Barry Goldwater with attitude. Write in Sarah Palin for President in November, and make history again! -Kerry O. |
