You see, Killbots have a preset kill limit. Knowing their weakness, I sent wave after wave of my own men at them, until they reached their limit and shutdown. Kif, show them the medal I won.

what's the deal with "not allowed a lawyer at a grand jury" thing
aren't you required to be allowed a lawyer at any time?
People called to testify before a grand jury aren't allowed to have their lawyers present in the grand jury room. Grand jury proceedings are different from trials, they're more secretive, so it encourages witnesses to speak freely sans fear, and normal rules of evidence don't apply. Lawyers can be outside the room to consult with witnesses afterwards though, I believe.

The rules of evidence are waived, there is no ban on hearsay, etc. etc.
It's to access whether or not there is sufficient probable cause for the case to be brought to court. It's the bare minimum of requirements.

oh hey italy convicted 23 americans in absentia of kidnapping, 22 of them are CIA agents
i love that there are members of the US government who can't go to Europe because they'd be arrested. like, the hague has warrants out for bush and allen west, if i remember correctly
The Hague will never get its hands on either one; Bush is escorted by secret service agents everywhere he goes, and West is a crazy motherfucker who would never let himself be taken alive.
I've been to the Hague. It's quite nice. There's a super cool hole-in-the-wall karaoke club where you can get wasted with the owners.
They should totally let themselves get taken.

Considering how many public spankings federal prosecutors have gotten the last couple years you'd think they'd wanna aim a little higher than the minimum these days.

Are you serious?
It's a standard to be met by law. Making it higher would require changing the law.

Mr. Romney himself seemed pensive on the early-morning flight Tuesday from California to Utah, sitting alone with a white legal pad and a pen as he picked at a vegetarian breakfast burrito. An aide said that he had eaten dinner alone in his hotel room the night before as the video controversy began to unfold.

East Germany was socialist.
North Vienam was socialist.
The USA have never been socialist.
vietnam is still technically communist, and the DDR was nominally socialist in the sense that they were really soviet
you are contributing to the redefining of socialism as "anything bad" rather then what it really means, which is government involvement in social programs and safety nets
Ann Romney recalled the time she was exploring the White House and accidentally walked in on President George W. Bush as he was getting a massage.
"He was covered up ... but I was so embarrassed didn't know what say to him," Ann Romney said. Later when the two of them were in an elevator, "He looks at me and winks like he does and said, 'I look pretty good, don't I?'"
GW was a god damned balla

can stuff you say to a grand jury be used against you at trial and is a prosecutor required to bring a case to trial if the jury returns an indictment?

apropos of nothing, taking a poop in the woods is pretty nice, yall. just hang your ass over a log and commune with nature for a while.
A "national" poll that doesn't include several states... I'll take it with a grain of sugar... even with the trainwreck of the Romney campaign, it will probably end up being closer to a 52-48
7% has been pretty consistent among polls not named rasmussen or gallup

Depends on state to state, but I think that
A: No, it can't, unless you sign a waiver.
B: No, they aren't.

well uh not really sure why you're taking it with a grain of sugar but I'm pretty sure nobody is seriously expecting the 7-11 coffee cup poll to accurately predict the election?

hey @munkus beaver or @Ubik what's the deal with "not allowed a lawyer at a grand jury" thing
aren't you required to be allowed a lawyer at any time?
Not at a grand jury proceeding. You don't even have a right to be there.
People called to testify before a grand jury aren't allowed to have their lawyers present in the grand jury room. Grand jury proceedings are different from trials, they're more secretive, so it encourages witnesses to speak freely sans fear, and normal rules of evidence don't apply.

Only during the winter.

Kindling.
Munkus why would they set their poop on fire??

Early settlers used buffalo chips to start fires.
At least this is what Bear Grylls tells me.
