@Nessie -- get it right, Mark Hoffmann was a forger & extortionist who stooped to terrorist actions out of greed.

Paice LLC is a patent troll. They don't have the money to launch an ITC legal challenge to the Toyota patents.

So much negativity about the Mormons, I don't recall ever hearing about any Mormon Elders committing adultry, molesting little boys, or having homosexual affairs while holding out their hands for money from their congregations.

Moral to this story: if you are married to, or planning to marry a Japanese, don't have kids.
If you already have kids (through marriage or otherwise) make sure they attend international school because there is no future for them in this country -- anyone who thinks otherwise is delusional...

I'm still trying to figure out how CNN in Atlanta has more information about this case than JT. Its was reported by CNN that this guy is a naturalized Japanese citizen and the kids hold Japanese passports. This is a Japanese legal matter -- he chose to become a Japanese citizen, so he must deal with the consequences of his actions...

Bill Maher can say nasty things about Jerry Falwell upon his death, but when conservatives say anything derogatory about Teddy, they are called vile and heinous. By the way, Teddy did plead guilty to leaving the scene of an accident -- which would have been like Lee Harvey Oswald pleading guilty to disharging a gun in a public place...

Health reform needed? Put the people at the center of the industry and not the industry? Can't solve the problem by throwing money at it. EVERY adult individual must be responsible for their health needs -- we don't need a nanny state. All employers should be required to offer health insurance to its employees and if that employee earns below a certain level their payment portion should be supplemented by the government. Emphasis here is on responsibility. No matter how little you earn, you must pay something and employers must offer an insurance plan.

Sounds like the liberal, just-skating-by posters didn't have any family members on the four planes that slammed into the WTC, Pentagon or the field in Pennsylvania. You must be the twinkle in the eye of Keith Obermann and Rachel L. Maddow....
