Then you have folks on welfare with 19 kids, 9 dogs and 1 cat. Now there is a carbon footprint the size of Al Gore's, all being subsidized by the Tax Payers.
 
Police authorities in Bowling Green, Ky., say 19 children were left inside a filthy home unsupervised for a week with no food or air-conditioning.
 
Deputies said the children ranged in age from 8 months to 14 years old and were taken to a nearby medical center Monday before they were released into protective custody, according to ABC News station WBKO.
 
On Tuesday, Jackie Farah was arrested and charged with 14 counts of criminal abuse and five counts of wanton endangerment, according to WBKO. She is being held without bail. Police are still looking for Irving “Joe” Smith, who they believe is the children’s father.
 
Police said nine dogs and one cat were also found in the home.

Good for them! Just b/c they don't play it (yet) doesn't invalidate that the states are still nation states, but thanks for the red herring.
 
  As for global warming news related to automobiles, it all does relate vis-a-vis A21 and the fraud being perpetuated for transfer of wealth on the American, nay the world's population that is other than 3rd world.
 
You do know A21 language abolishes all private property ownership do you not? Automobiles are private property.
 
And I and everyone else notice that you have not responded to where in Article I Section 8 of the constitution it mentions anything about environmental regulation.
 
As far as bogie men got a little visual for everyone:

Texans' threats to leave the US reminds me of a friend who was asked what part of Mexico he was from. He said the occupied part. (He was a native San Antonian).
 
You know no one owns anything anyway right? Just try taking it with you. Not to mention you don't own stuff, it owns you. I'm not lying in bed losing sleep over A21 or ET from Area 51 using my minivan when I need it to get to the store.
 
Just sayin'

Ah, you're waxing philosophical on us...great!
 
Any other platitudes you wanna share?!?
 
Sleep well. It's always the vigilant few that protect the majority.
 
Both you and your San Antonio friend should watch the movie End of the Road...

Lost track of him after he moved back to TX from ID.
 
Platitudes? I like "Everything you think you know is wrong". You can look it up.
 
Just learned a new word you'll enjoy - "globaloney".
 
In more topical stuff, "One could argue that Honda's reputation is largely based on the various clean air and fuel economy technologies it has promoted over the years. From CVCC to HF to VTEC, NGV to IMA to FCEV, Honda can usually be found tinkering away at or near the top of the mpg charts.
 
Accordingly, the new 2013 Honda Fit EV looks mighty impressive in terms of EV efficiency."
 
Going to be hard to find one to lease though.
 
2013 Honda Fit EV First Drive (Inside Line)
 
(IMDB shows 11 "End of the Road" movies btw).

Never had a philosophy class, but skepticism falls under the definition and it is fun poking the shades of gray out there. The billboard guy should find a job in product testing.

I sent it to my nephew that just finished his masters in Philosophy at San Francisco State. He has not had a job since his bar tending job while getting his bachelor's in Seattle. It is possible to have TOO much knowledge for many employers.

It's funny, with new job seeker prereqs inflating like everything else these days, many recent workplace entrants have more credentials than their tenured so-called superiors. I see it a lot in my industry. Looks like the game might have backfired, this can't last forever.

That philosophy certainly fits those who have nothing to lose...
