After watching the Caprica pilot last night, I can only hope there are as many girl on girl orgies in the series, but I suspect there won't be. - Reagen May 18, 09:25 2

      - Personal pet peeve? People who write "nm" when there's actually an "m". Worse, still... - Mop (236 lbs) May 18, 09:12 5
        
        Some people of too many pet peeves -- nm - ty97 May 18, 09:28

This is from a couple days, but didn't see anything on here... Obama selects Utah governor as ambassador to China. - Don Homer May 18, 08:52 34
- In reading the article it must be mentioned that... - Mel Profit May 18, 09:17
- one article said this would be equal to Bush selecting Hillary or someone like that to serve. -- nm - Remlik May 18, 08:55 17
  - sounds like plain tokenism. -- nm - loosilu May 18, 08:56 16
    - if it was tokenism he'd send him to the UN. -- nm - mafic May 18, 09:00
    - It would, except he's not the first republican Obama has tapped for a post. Or even the third. - tee-woo-gee May 18, 08:59 1
      - makes sense. -- nm - loosilu May 18, 09:06
    - China is a big deal. I don't know much about this Huntsman fellow, but the relationship with that country is too big to waste like that. -- nm - con_carne May 18, 08:58 11
      - Very true. -- nm - loosilu May 18, 09:03
      - Right. This isn't some tiny country in the middle of Africa or Central America, etc. -- nm - Don Homer May 18, 09:00 9
        
        related: For some reason, the US Ambassador to Rwanda is a really great ambassador. - loosilu May 18, 09:04 7
        
        how old? (everyone has to pay their dues. maybe a stepping stone?) -- nm - mafic May 18, 09:07 1
        
        under 50. -- nm - loosilu May 18, 09:08
        
        I would think an appointment to Rwanda would be high profile. I think a lot of people know about its recent history. -- nm - con_carne May 18, 09:07 4
        
        small population, tiny economy (no exports). I dunno. I think it is his first post as ambassador, which may be the bigger factor. - loosilu May 18, 09:08 3
        
        there you go. enough rope to hang himself, but can't do any real damage. -- nm - mafic May 18, 09:09 2
        
        I think so. and there's plenty to do. Tons of charities and aid agencies coming in, and the country is actively seeking foreign investors. -- nm - loosilu May 18, 09:10 1
        
        as a contrast: The guy in an (unnamed west african country) is terrible. - loosilu May 18, 09:12
        
        Or Alaska. nm - Dignan May 18, 09:00
    - There's a lot of token's lying around then. - Will Hunting May 18, 08:57
- [deleted] 13
  - from the little I've seen of him, I think he'd be pretty tolerable. - Reagen May 18, 08:57
  - The Dems have moved past bringing in the independents. Now they are assimilating the moderate Republicans. - tee-woo-gee May 18, 08:56
  - And he probably knows that a) he wouldn't win a primary in 2012 in today's GOP, and b) he wouldn't want to run against Obama if he did win. -- nm - znufrii May 18, 08:55 10
    - It's awful early for anyone to be afraid of Obama for 2012. -- nm - Will Hunting May 18, 08:56 9
      - but not to early to read the writing on the wall that barring a major policy implosion by Obama, the GOP is going to have a rough time of it. - znufrii May 18, 08:59 5
        
        It's way too early to think anything of the sort. Picture the shambles the Democratic party was in on May 18, 2005. -- nm - ty97 May 18, 09:01 4
        
        The difference being that the Democratic party establishment didn't embrace the extreme wing of the party in response - znufrii May 18, 09:04 3
        
        I'm not so sure that's true. - ty97 May 18, 09:06 2
        
        swasn't Dean rolling out his 50-state strategy right about now? -- nm - znufrii May 18, 09:14 1
        
        and compare that to Michael Steele -- nm - znufrii May 18, 09:18
      - This is znu, he thinks people fear running against Obama in 2016 and 2020. - ty97 May 18, 08:57 2
        
        Though Obama effectively was running against Bush in 2008. -- nm - Reagen May 18, 08:58 1
        
        If the GOP wants to beat Obama in 4 years they need to be figuring out how to do it now. - tee-woo-gee May 18, 09:01

Supreme Court rules that old maternity leave (before it became illegal to discriminate against preggos) doesn't count toward pensions. -- (link) - Don Homer May 18, 08:43 23
- Who gets pensions any more? -- nm - con_carne May 18, 08:47 7
  - I have a pension plan. -- nm - Callisto May 18, 08:53 3
    - I just don't know much about them. During my years at Monster, I can count the number of job listings I've seen offering a pension on one hand. -- nm - con_carne May 18, 08:59 2
      - A number of larger companies still do, plus the fed. government does. -- nm - Don Homer May 18, 09:00 1
        
        Yup, and of course the highly unionized jobs. -- nm - con_carne May 18, 09:01
  - I have a very small pension. It's not being contributed to any more, as my employer ended the pension program. - ty97 May 18, 08:52
  - I do. -- nm - Don Homer May 18, 08:52
  - Actually, I have a pension plan here. Surprised me too. -- nm - TFox May 18, 08:51
- [deleted] 14
  - I agree, but from the ariticle's summary of the decision, isn't the court ruling technically correct? - musubi May 18, 08:49 1
    - [deleted]
  - *nods* This court is way too far right. -- nm - Don Homer May 18, 08:47 11
    - on that subject, there's good bio of John Roberts in the New Yorker this week, too -- (link) - znufrii May 18, 08:50 1
      - [deleted]
    - The ruling sorta makes sense to me. - ty97 May 18, 08:49 8
      - [deleted] 6
        
        Actually, it's exactly the point. In the end, the justices have to make sense of cases, in light of the law. - ty97 May 18, 08:56 1

        What do you mean "overrule"? Does that mean making new legislation? -- nm - con_carne May 18, 08:55 3
