Has anyone else had the bright idea to replace Robert Plant howl in the "Immigrant Song" song with the Howard Dean audio?

If you leave your door open, and someone comes in and steals your belongings, it is theft? If you leave your car door unlocked with the keys in it, and someone steals your car, is that theft?

Here's a thought. Next time you see something that belongs to someone else just lying around, why not take it? They deserve to be ripped off, right?

It really is starting to look like morality has become obsolete. Now it's all "might makes right" and "they deserved to be ripped off".

*sigh*

Once upon a time people used to leave their doors unlocked. Nowadays people triple lock everything and back that up with electronic alarm systems. Those who can afford it add padlocked gates. Such a beautiful world we live in.

Ha-Ha!  Idiot demon-rats can't even keep their files out of an open domain.  Pitiful.  And these morons want to run the country?  Guess this is how China got a hold of so much of our Nuke technology under the watchful eye of The Arkansas Love Machine!
 
Here's a suggestion, how's about taking responsibility for your own shortcomings and quit trying to blame other people?  I know it goes against every fiber of your 'rat being, but give it a shot.
 
This pitiful attempt to cover for the legislative subterfuge to get your activist judges to remain on the bench unopposed by strict Constitutionalists only serves to remind the knowledgeable of what you did.

Hmmmm … by extension, a subtle admission that there indeed exist (*GASP*) … liberal leaning newspapers???

No, they'll tell you that the opposite of conservative leaning newspaper is a "moderate-leaning newspaper".

Zot is in the air
Everywhere I look around
Zot is in the air
Every sight and every sound

And I don't know if you're being foolish
Don't know if you're being wise
But it's something that you must believe in
And it's there when you talk to your spy's

Zot is in the air
In the whisper of the toke
Zot is in the air
In the thunder of the smoke

And I don't know if you're just dreaming
Don't know if you're insane
But it's something that you must believe in
And it's there when we zot your name

(Chorus)
Zot is in the air
Zot is in the air
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

Zot is in the air
In the rising of your post
Zot is in the air
When the post is nearly toast

And I know now you're an illusion
You Don't care if it's not true
But you're something that we can't believe in
And you're banned when we reach out for you

Zot is in the air
Every sight and every sound
And we now know you are foolish
You'll be gone in a FLASH

But it's something that I sure believe in
And it's there when I look in your This account has been banned or suspended.

How's about, if you move all your stuff out to the middle of the street and leave it there?

"...If you leave your door open, and someone comes in and steals your belongings, it is theft?.."

Yep. But, if they just peak in at them, it's not! There was not any theft here. Is it illegal to spy on the "loyal opposition?" I leave that to the LE people. I know the pair who taped Newt's strategy session never got nailed for anything.

I still think that this was not ethical. The proper thing to have done would be to tell the Dems that they had left their data open to the world, and that they should do something to secure it. That would have been the ethical, right and proper thing to do. Instead, the Pubbies just looted the data and laughed to themselves at how stupid the Dems were.

That's not ethics, that's "if I can get away with it, then no harm and no foul". I though that we were supposed to stand for certain things, like fair play. Guess I thought wrong.

What a swell caper! The Dems still haven't figured out that we're reading their mail in much more important places than SJC. And they never will.

Whether or not they were "nailed", as you put it, it was still wrong to do.

I'm telling all of you, loud and clear so there is no chance of misunderstanding. The ethic of "if I can get away with it, then there was nothing wrong done" is going to end up leading this nation to grief. It is a path that will lead to a very dark and disturbing place, where everyone simply expects everyone else to be a liar, a crook and an opportunistic thief.

Wrong is wrong. Period. No amount of justification or word games will make wrong right. When we play the same dirty games we accuse them of playing, then how are we any better?
