That's a gross oversimplification. It's just as ludicrous to say that Democrats hate business. Blanket statements don't work. Read some of the Founders' writings. You'll see how wrong both parties have gotten it and through complicity, we allowed it to happen. All most libertarians want is a...

Easy. DMCA, Nancy Pelosi giving subsidies to salmon farmers so they "won't fish" because they "can't fish" (rather than doing what most people do when their job is downsized. FIND A NEW ONE.) Pro IP Act (which is bipartisan, but the dems could've defeated that expansive growth of the Justice...

Indeed. Very well put. It's becoming more of a "one-party" system these days... The only differentiating factors are "scary" issues, but even then, those are simply polarizing rather than substantive. The current parties have seen what good old fashioned fearmongering can do to the generally...

Finishing all of Oblivion/Shivering Isles and getting all the achievements possible, joining all the guilds, etc. (There is one achievement you sacrifice based on a choice you make in Shivering Isles, but I suppose if I'd saved it at a better time I could've gotten all achievements.) It took me...

Well, in my case, the third time's been a "charm", and my current refurb Elite has survived playing Fable for hours on end the last week or so... (gronking the drive like an epileptic drinking Jolt Cola) and I've only had 3 in-game lockups... most likely a result of me zooming through the menus...

Well, in the immortal words of Bob Zany: Lighten up everyone... life's too short to be offended. :)

Maybe they should replace "Hitler" with "jingoism" or "National Socialism" or simply "Nationalism". God forbid they use the term Fascist. :)

I noticed something disturbing last night while playing Fable 2. When my original Elite was starting to go, the video splash screen of my console wouldn't show up on my TV, and only after it logged into live did I see a screen. Add to that some ghosting with the menus for Fable and I suppose...

Well, I thought about that myself after my "less than 24 hour" 2nd Xbox death, but I decided I'd keep my arcade on ice for a bit, since it's a Falcon, and abuse my 3rd elite until such time as to shoot it behind the barn. ;) I've not had any issues thus far with it, and have been playing quite a...

After being disappointed by the length of the original Fable (considering the ludicrous dearth of RPGs on the original XBox, I thought it strange that Fable would be such a drop in the bucket content-wise), I thought they'd learn to keep Peter's mouth shut until things were more finalized. I...

Oh horse shit, dude. Simply saying because I don't vote for Obama and McCain gets in that it's somehow MY fault is part of the reason WHY a third party is having such a rough time getting out of the fringe. People like YOU who insist on pointing fingers instead of SOLVING the problem serves no...

Nope. This issue is pretty clear. Obama "No lobbyist!" stance is a lie. McCain "No Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac" is a lie. It's the same to me as both of them claiming to be a woman. If it's not to you, like I said, it's your opinion and you're entitled to it. Convincing me otherwise is wasting...

Take from it what you want. You know what they say about opinions. But thanks for adding nothing to the discussion too. They don't seem to be following their own "duck" rule when it comes to Obama/McCain, so why should I believe otherwise? If you want to believe I support aliens from Omion...

It's not a black-and-white point of view. It's the same lie in a different package... that's what I'm saying. If you think it's lesser of two evils, that's fine... but like I said, if enough people get FED UP, we might actually have real change than the revolving door between elephant and...

No, but you claim I missed the point when I pointed out Obama's ties... It seemed a de-facto support for the other candidate to some I'm sure... even if they won't admit it. I don't care if you do think I'm a McCain supporter. I put some info into this thread to show some things that most...

I vote Libertarian most of the time, but I'm not too keen on Bob Barr's tactics in Texas to keep the dems and repubs off the ballot. It just smacks of sour grapes. Truth is, I don't have much of a candidate this time around... But I suppose I'll vote for Barr.... the least of 3 evils? *shrug*...

Easy. His words are coming back to bite him and Obama's not going to tell you anything about the money or influence from the CEO's because "it's legit". McCain lied about it... okay... so he's MORE evil. GREAT. Thanks for proving my point about BOTH CANDIDATES being worthless shills. you...

This is funny. Now it's about amounts. Before it was the mere appearance. I am not defending McCain's involvement (if any) in this FM stuff... what I AM doing is saying the white knight is not without his tarnish because HE accepted money from the very crooks reaming us in the rump with this...

and I hate to break it to you that money given to candidates even "on the table" are not without strings and influence. Again, anyone going to tell me why you (all) think I'm somehow a McCain supporter? I'm just posting facts about Obama... you deal with them how you see fit, but I can see...

So when Obama says he is against this sort of waste, you still believe him? And when Obama says he doesn't take from lobbyists, you still believe him? that's your choice, but you can't say I didn't warn you.
