Starnes is right about one thing: Thanks to religious nut conservatives who would not vote for Romney because he is Mormon, we’ll likely end up with a radical socialist/marxist on the bench.

Let the filibuster begin!!

Don’t you really mean: “Scalia supported a Monarchy”?

The EPA is no different. It was granted authority within a certain scope by congress. Congress can also take that authority away. Government wouldn’t work if congress had to approve every detail of every organization.[/quote]

Under the U.S. Constitution, Congress has the power to make criminal only four types of conduct: treason, counterfeiting, piracies and felonies on the high seas, and offenses against the laws of nations.

We have 20T in base debt!![/quote]

That’s only a little over 1 year’s GDP. Your mortgage is probably much more than that and you can service it just fine.[/quote]

But GDP is not the same as tax revenue.

Nope. They may force download of this item of spyware as an update, but installation would still require some sort of manual intervention. 7 is supported until at least 2019.

I agree 100% with you and BG – part of the reason for this push is spyware.

Happy using Windows 7 or Windows 8? You might not be happy much longer, because Microsoft has announced Windows 10 will now start installing automatically on Windows 7 and Windows 8 PCs…

The development sees Microsoft follow through on its controversial October roadmap which said Windows 10 would have its status changed in 2016 to become a ‘Recommended’ upgrade in Windows Update. In basic terms this means anyone who uses Windows 7 or Windows 8 with default Windows Update settings (the vast majority) will now see Windows 10 begin installing by itself.

The good news is Windows 7 and Windows 8 users will still have the power to interrupt the installation once it has started, but this still represents by far the most aggressive measure Microsoft has taken to achieve its stated goal of one billion Windows 10 installations by 2017.

Watches are a,liability, require maintenance.

I did buy some mac stuff recently, even a desktop.

But the last mac we had for 7 years.[/quote]

Speaking of Mac and PC

**WARNING WARNING WARNING**

It is my understanding that Microsoft will be FORCING Windows 7 users to update to Windows 10!!!

I do like Apple for tablets and phones – I don’t see any reason though to buy a Mac desktop.

I buy off lease PC’s off of ebay for $100 bucks or so and install a decent video card.

However, Mac Laptops even a few years old still have value. Most PC laptops have already been e-recycled.

I am cheap – and still basically broke.

I think being cheap can burn you in the long run.

For example, you can buy an Invicta watch and they are pretty nice but have no resale, etc..Or you could spend more and buy a Gucci watch and you can ALWAYS sell it.

Gucci watches are always in demand. Invictas? Not really…(but I do have a collection of cheap Invicta wacthes and no Gucci).

Even if not declared, I’ve got some news for you: we’re already in a recession.[/quote]

I’m surprised it’s not LMAOROTF. When will the recession be declared?[/quote]

By summer it will be declared to have started in Q4 2015.
