Rick Perry wears glasses now, so he'll appear intelligent and we won't notice how dumb he is when he talks.

Uber Isn't in Kansas Anymore http://news.yahoo.com/uber-says-leaving ... 34667.html

Republican Rep. Scott Schwab from Olathe, who led earlier negotiations with Uber and was one of the most outspoken lawmakers in favor of the override, said that the company "showed all along they don't understand the Kansas process," and he was indifferent if they stayed or left the state.

heh @ "the Kansas process"

I'm gonna go with "enemies at the gates" as the biggest factor in the downfall of Byzantium.
Sure, I could have stayed in the past. I could have even been king. But in my own way, I am king.

Correct. The Ottomans conquered Constantinople because they were enraged by a YouTube video that was offensive to Muslims. It wasn't even a conquest, actually. Just a peaceful protest that got out of hand.

It's not fair to go back that many centuries and blame the catholics. Forgive and forget...

Correct! A lot of Greek Orthodox are still pissed.

I commend you for knowing that. Few do. Apparently aTm teaches history along with cipherin'.

Say what you want but the Ottomans make a fine piece of furniture.
Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

Unemployment down, record stock market. Pump prices down, interest rates low - no wars raging.

Obviously the time is ripe to implement the Master Plan. Feds Preparing to Invade Texas - TeapartyNews http://www.teaparty.org/feds-preparing- ... xas-89912/

as always, the comments section is the best read....teapartyers are divided - some have relatives in the military and say they would never turn on the citizenry, while others say it's happened before and THIS IS IT
