• This Teen’s Invention Means You Could Charge Your Cellphone in Less Than 30 Seconds

  In reply to GordonHarvey.

  Corporate crooks?
  I thought the Right loved capitalism. Isn’t this capitalism at its best? No one forces these folks to participate. They can develop their ideas elsewhere. The corporate sponsors make clear ‘the rules’.
  So this is but another fine example of capitalism hard at work. .

  THE_ALMIGHTY…
  But isn’t that just good, free market capitalism at work?

  No one is forcing these folks to participate. They can seek to develop their ideas elsewhere.

• Is This the ‘Smoking Gun’ That Ties the IRS Scandal to the White House?

  Shut down the IRS.
  Are you going to make a direct deposit to the military (and other gov’t functions) then?

  Shut down the IRS.
  Really?
  Is that your solution?

• ‘Eliminate Hate’: Massive Study Finds That Many EU Gays Live in Fear, Experience Intense Discrimination

  In reply to common cents.

  And here we have BRIGGS playing the victim.
  How sweet.
  Lots of folks who fought (still fight against) racial equality played the victim too.

  By all means. Continue to hold your ground. Don’t tolerate such an attack on your sacred beliefs.
  You’ll at least have your personal conviction at the end of the day.

  Another MAN claiming to KNOW how God will judge.
  (I know. I know. You read it in The Book. Well I’ve had over 20+ years of Christian-affiliated education and I don’t see things the way you do. And I am quite certain most gays care little about your religious interpretation – but do care greatly about the abuse they receive by too many of their fellow humans.)

• ‘Submit!’: Beck’s Passionate Break Down of the IRS ‘Inquisition’ of Conservative Groups — and What’s Coming Next in the Case

  VOTER713…
  Beck is simply seeking to expose his bank account to other people’s money.

  Has Beck (The Blaze) attempted to expose ANYTHING on the almost certain criminal negligence that left 15 dead, over 200 injured and massive, millions in damage – in West TX?
  (Oh wait. To be honest, The Blaze did attempt to expose SOMETHING about that avoidable tragedy – they did try to ‘expose’ the couple cartoons that challenged if Gov Perry’s reduced gov’t regulation and oversight perhaps helped allow such deadly conditions exist in West TX.)

  Has Beck ever attempted to expose the massive threats posed by our greed-driven capitalistic financial giants? There is plenty of truth to expose there.

  Has Beck ever tried to expose the permanent massive environmental destruction caused by the coal extraction process of mountain top removal? Plenty of truth there to expose.

  Has Beck ever tried to expose the massive failure (and racial bias) of our drug laws (and related judicial and incarceration systems)?

  Oh yea. Beck is out to expose the truth. Expose it as long as it fits his desired narrative – and as long as it generates positive bottom line ($) growth for him.

  Oh JUST…
  And I bet in Arizona and other border states many, say, white, European looking persons are being asked to prove their citizenship
  Or in New York… I bet many of the same type of looking people are being stopped as often as blacks.

  Its pretty simple really.
  Do you think profiling should be used in some instances – like asking for proof of citizenship if you are stopped and happen to look Mexican? Or should you be stopped and questioned if you are black and in a high crime area? Or if you are Muslim or look Middle Eastern and want to board an airplane?
  Are those instances of profiling OK to you?
  Or lets say your organization pushes for tax revolt and it then happens to be profiled by… the tax collecting IRS. Is that wrong?
  (Hint: Yes -such is wrong, un-American in ALL those cases.)
  ???

  In reply to No_More_War_Please.

  Many on the Right are fine with the profiling going on like with Arizona and immigrants or wanting to profile Middle Eastern, Muslim air travelers but oh…. Talk about and aggressively push for a tax revolt and you/your group should not be profiled by the IRS as being possible less than exemplary tax code following organizations.
  Apply one standard for others I don’t like or support – but do NOT apply those same standards to those I do support.
  Can you say double standard?

  In reply to ArtMooney.

  And some folks wonder why some individuals or some groups on the Right were profiled by the IRS.
  Many on the Right say it is important to profile others / other groups based on their religious beliefs, ethnicity, or other (like profiling Middle Eastern, Muslim air travelers – or like the profiling done in Arizona with immigrants) So…
  Here you are ART – like many on the Right, like many tea party organizations… openly talking of a tax revolt.
  I would say the IRS was negligent if they did NOT target those who talk so aggressively and openly about a tax revolt.
