no, no offense, it's nice to talk about it all without someone getting militant.
It totally IS farcical! The Tea Party is kind of a fundamentalist propaganda thing, Karl Rove is the spin doctor they use to indoctrinate people in much the same way as you said, but they use phrases like "we need to get back to the Moral, Christian Fundamentals this country was founded on", or "we want to keep the money we earned" they convince people who don't have anything in life to willfully vote for candidates based on racism (which is dying, but still rampant in parts of the US), religion, and false history of some "glory days" that never really existed in reality. Then once elected, people like GW Bush and Romney rape those very same people that voted for them via raising taxes for ME and lowering or finding new ways to eliminate the rich from being taxed. The worst part is, those suckers don't even know they've been screwed because they are soo indoctrinated, they REALLY believe what they are fed because A.M. Talk radio and FOX news spins and lies, and then they somehow forget they've been lied to..I dunno, short attention span I guess.

Religion and Politics in the same sentence... why not just throw some live grenades into the mix too
The "glory days" argument is one that has never gone down well for me, even over here... especially when they talk abotu glory days which non of us were even born for! eeeesh idiots will be idiots.
Then once elected, people like GW Bush and Romney rape those very same people that voted for them via raising taxes for ME and lowering or finding new ways to eliminate the rich from being taxed.
something that the Conservatives get blamed for over here, but what people fail to see (generally dyed in the wool labourites) is that sometimes, parties have to come along to clean up the messes caused be the previous one... for us its the NHS... Labour threw money at it and expected it to get better rather than find the cause for its financial bleeding...
FOX... bloody Rupert Murdoch yet a-fracking-gain... why does that not surprise me...
The News of the World incident is still raging over here yet he seems to have gotten off scott free...
Short attention span seems to be the side effect of spoon fed indoctrination and lobotomisation...

This is what pisses ME off
I'm single, so I get screwed 10% more than a married COUPLE making the same amount combined.
and you can all see plainly that there is not another 10% jump in that rate until you get stupidly rich. Making just 100,000/year is considered "living well" in the US. Most of us want to be at the 60-80k/year mark, there you aren't going to have to worry about paying the bills, buying groceries, or sending your kids to School or any of that bullshiit that make life suck, especially when you work your ass off.
This act of bending me over passed without Fanfare, and under the radar under the feel-good name of "Marriage Penalty reversal" After GW Bush got re-elected.
And you can all see, that in 2013 I will have to sell all of my hobby stuff just to pay the goddamn taxes if something doesn't change.

But I would like to make known my special loathing for Mr Cameron. My rage is uncontrollable - I feel like a Klingon when I think of Mr Cameron. If he were ever trapped in a confined space with me I would have to try and choke him. I would probably fail as he is bigger than me but I would try my best.
Watching FOX News is like The Running Man, it incites it's viewers into a frenzied orgy of bloodlust and hate.

I can't honestly comment on taxes... thats where my head starts to implode... I was never very good at maths at school.
but iirc (and I probably don't lols) it's the opposite here... single people rape the rewards while married couples are left reeling from their taxes...
It takes a bold Person to be able to do the right thing in politics, especially when it will give them the worst name since mud.
Oh no! For Each kid you have, you get an instant $2-$3,000 tax cut..right off the top. Bam, no questions asked, just a Social Security #. I have no kids...here Government, My 40K City table will have to wait another year, but the rich people across the street will not miss their annual Bahamas vacation..Thanks for being Patriotic and taking one for the team though!

I don't necessarily think its all down to Cameron, especially as Ed Milliband is labours answer to the anti-christ... either way its individual taste. Personally I go for ta parties politics at that given time, and how well they are going to perform and produce compared to the others... and imo no one votes for Liberal Demmocrats unless they like a spiky frence up their rear.
Politics is like perfume, too many different types and all of them leave you with a terrible smell the next morning...

HAHA..That's the American way I guess..bah. The economy is globalizing, 19th century notions of "patriotism" and "Nationalism" are outdated IMHO. Just as stupid as lining up in rows, wearing bright colors and shooting another line of a different bright colored people. Humanism is my "party"

I had to skip 8 pages of awesomeness because I'm so far behind on this thread. If anything occurred model-wise please let me know.
Regarding current conversation, I'm going to vote for Mittens 2012.
Why, you may ask?
Spoiler:
Because we are already SO compromised internally and internationally, SO close to complete breakdown, SO screwed economically and socially, I want to see what happens if we get that last little push over the edge. Yes, I want to see the end times happen in my lifetime. I want to see the unwashed masses rise up against the elite class with broken bottles and sticks. I want to see riots that span entire cities. I want the transportation system to crumble. I want the Internet to crash. I want communications system to fail completely. I want to see fires raging out of control in every state. I want absolute and complete economic and social collapse. I want to see the (remaining) US Gov't retreat in fear to NORAD and seal themselves off in their little Vault.
In short, I want the Eye of Terror to open and I think Mittens is the man for the job.
Granted if this actually happens I won't actually see any of it becasue the Internet will be down and I doubt radio / television communications would last very long. Also becasue I'll be standing on the roof of my house (tucked away in the mountains of VT) shooting at anyone I don't recognize, which almost everyone.
Obama promised change. Mittens promises the end of all things as we know it. So vote early and often for Mittens 2012!
And I'm not kidding.
So yeah. Back to modeling.

Kinda on topic but if ya'll haven't seen the movie "God Bless America" you really should. its crass, crude, and chunky. but also very frighteningly true. yes I am referring to the film directed by bobcat goldthwaite.

I still can't get over the use of the "c" word by what was practically a child though... tbh I was shocked when my nephew swore at me the other week... he's two... childrens minds should have a memory wipe butter god damn it!!!
No..It takes years to reset what ou put into them at that age ..kids are definately for OTHER people than me in that respect
So..I have the afternoon off! I REFUSE to do the double click of doom and waste my free time playing video games, so I'm gonna finish this submarine damnit!
The Breadboard design has been simplified a LOT from the original design, I'm just going to spam the same circuit twice, one 9-vot battery in each base, three LEDs on each circuit, The rear circuit will have 2 fiber-optics ran to the tailfin lights from one LED
Except my soldering skills have become a bit rusty..I must practice more!
