Hey, Bob, your 15 minutes of fame were up years ago when you stopped speaking truth to power and started writing salacious, meaningless crap best kept next to the toilet. In reflection, maybe you should be a regular on Scheiss World with Kneel Cavuto.

My state’s local polls closed, at least 1 teabagger out of the House. Yay! Still waiting for the concession speech from Rmoney. Don’t want to wake up in 2000 with the Supremes selecting the next President…

Chris Krispykreme may be a back-stabbing blowhard Republican, but he’s not stupid. As the Governor of a state hard-hit by a natural disaster, he may be having second thoughts about backing Mitt “dismantle FEMA” Romney.

As far as Rupert goes, why is this human pile of excrement still not rotting in a jail cell over the NOTW scandal?

@ Visitor 55:

It’s not 12 people in a movie theater, but an 86 year old man (allegedly) murdered 10 people and injured 70 more by speeding into a crowded farmers market in California. He claimed loss of control, yet managed to miss all of the cars and trucks in 2+ blocks before running into innocent victims.

I think you’re on to something. There are approximately 250 million registered cars and 270 million guns in the United States. Each year there are approximately 40 thousand people killed by automobiles and 30 thousand people killed by guns (all cause mortality in both cases).

From this, we can infer the lethality of each given device. For automobiles, there are about 6,200 registered vehicles per person killed by them. For guns, there are about 9,000 registered guns per person killed by them. Therefore, automobiles are about 1.4 times more effective at killing than guns. And that really says something, because a gun’s sole purpose is to kill, whereas a vehicle, not so much.

I would fully support a ban on automobiles. Now, the gun control… that’s a toughie. Not that I’m against it, but you would have to completely overhaul the way guns are bought, sold, and traded, which would mean taking on the gun industry, the NRA (the NAMBLA of gun nuts, if you will), various right wing loonies, people who “want to take back their country”, and other people who think that regulation is equivalent to banning (as you point out as one of their favorite straw-men).

What would that overhaul look like? I think it would be a lot like the DMV. In fact, let’s call it the Division of Mechanical Weaponry. We could even combine the two offices for government efficiency!

It would work similarly to vehicle titling and registration. All weaponry must have a unique WIN (Weaponry Identification Number) assigned to it, either by the manufacturer, or by the DMW. Private sales of weaponry would require a change of title, which can only be done at the DMW or authorized weaponry dealerships, in person, by both parties. Commercial sales would work much the same. At time of sale, a licensing check will be performed (why is it that the DMV immediately knows when I get a parking ticket in the City, yet it takes days or longer to find out if I’m a convicted felon?). Assuming there are no irregularities, the sale and transfer of title is approved and is registered to the new owner.

Exactly, Jon! We’ve got to do whatever we can to help the job creators create jobs. If that means eliminating child labor laws, the minimum wage, welfare, non-profit health care (for the non-AARP crowd), environmental laws, consumer safety laws, and any other law, regulation or entitlement program that, in any way, might prevent the worthiest people on Earth (corporations are people, my friend!) from making a buck like the Teabag hat wearing Party wants, then so be it! If you are not a producer (i.e. – a corporation or rich person), you are a taker. Romney 2012!

Fox"News": Not racist, but #1 with racists.

How odd, a Fox"News" journalist acting like a real journalist… what is the world coming to? Has Greta begun to regret her decision to sell her integrity for a paycheck to shill for Fox"News"?

Yeah, at times Bill is funny (particularly when he’s on Letterman or The Daily Show). I used to like him, but I’ve come to realize that his on-screen persona at “The Factor” is not just a persona that he shrugs off after the show.

Billdo, please send your Watters-boy to stalk a kindergarten graduation! I would truly enjoy reading the criminal trespass complaint in the newspaper.

Fox"News"PAC: We distort, you complied!
