It seems like the presidents and candidates that have never served in a combat role tend to be more hawkish.

Iran on Monday announced that it has begun enriching uranium with 3,000 centrifuges, dramatically expanding a program that the United Nations has demanded it halt.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said at a ceremony at the enrichment facility at Natanz that Iran was now capable of enriching nuclear fuel "on an industrial scale."

Asked if Iran has begun injecting uranium gas into 3,000 centrifuges for enrichment, top nuclear negotiator Ali Larijani replied, "Yes." He did not elaborate.

The U.N. has imposed limited sanctions on Iran until it suspends enrichment a key process that can produce either fuel for a nuclear reactor or the basis of a warhead.

PONCE, Puerto Rico - People who believe the Constitution would break if it didn't change with society are "idiots,"
U.S. Supreme Court Justice
Antonin Scalia says.


In a speech Monday sponsored by the conservative Federalist Society, Scalia defended his long-held belief in sticking to the plain text of the Constitution "as it was originally written and intended."

"Scalia does have a philosophy, it's called originalism," he said. "That's what prevents him from doing the things he would like to do," he told more than 100 politicians and lawyers from this U.S. island territory.

According to his judicial philosophy, he said, there can be no room for personal, political or religious beliefs.

Scalia criticized those who believe in what he called the "living Constitution."

"That's the argument of flexibility and it goes something like this: The Constitution is over 200 years old and societies change. It has to change with society, like a living organism, or it will become brittle and break."

"But you would have to be an idiot to believe that," Scalia said. "The Constitution is not a living organism, it is a legal document. It says something and doesn't say other things."

Proponents of the living constitution want matters to be decided "not by the people, but by the justices of the Supreme Court."

"They are not looking for legal flexibility, they are looking for rigidity, whether it's the right to abortion or the right to homosexual activity, they want that right to be embedded from coast to coast and to be unchangeable," he said.

Scalia was invited to Puerto Rico by the Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies. The organization was founded in 1982 as a debating society by students who believed professors at the top law schools were too liberal. Conservatives and libertarians mainly make up the 35,000 members.

I don't see anything funny about this man.

In fact, he is the most serious repulsion to the U.S.Constitution, and the biggest threat to World-Wide Democracy.

Oh, but he's a hand-wipe for Israel and for Saudi Arabia.

It seems like they have accepted it as an undeniable fact even though it is nowhere near factual. To question it is like blasphemy to the believers.

Headline (Associated Press): "Unprovoked Attacks on Homeless Soaring"
A quote from the story: "Our young people get prejudices from their parents in regard to homeless people. They don't identify with the homeless, and they don't seem to see them as important." With Felix, Ring adds, "the juveniles targeted him because he was easy prey."

Now, I'm not making any assumptions or accusations--but the only people I've ever heard express derogatory opinions of the homeless are the neo-cons. What do you think?

Every generation has it's own "global warming" or "global freezing" But wouldn't it be fair to say that "global warming" is beyond our remedial theories?

Here's a good example: We STILL can't figure out the answer to PI. I mean, mathmatical genious' have spent years working it out using computers ect. We've learned that some things are just beyond our mere human capabilities. Truthfully, some of you are going to not believe this, but WE DON'T KNOW EVERYTHING!!!!

So why is it so many are fooled into believing that we ACTUALLY can change the weather. I mean, it's almost as ridiculous as the Catholic church denying the Copernican theory. But today's "catholic dominance" would be left-wing democrats control over Hollywood and low iq'd television viewers. But the question is, isn't it possible that "global warming" is beyond our capability? Is it possible for any enviornmentalists reading this to play devil's advocate for 2 minutes and consider they are wrong.
