Nitrogen triiodide (NI3) is as sensitive to shock as xenon trioxide, and much easier to make. Plus it makes a pretty purple cloud when it goes off.

It must be exhausting to be filled with so much hatred for those not born with your personality or those who’ve not come to the same conclusions about government that you did.
Rather than call you the names that are on the tip of my tongue, however, I have flagged your comment for the derogatory terms used, particular the latter, on behalf of my GLBT friends. They endure hatred enough from people who claim to worship the God I do and who take scripture as their license to decide how the rest of the world must live, even when people’s “sin” affects no one but themselves (i.e., another person’s sexuality only affects himself or herself unless you’re too threatened by otherness to act like a civilized human being).
Oh, hey, some of those names did slip out. Oh, well.

Obama inherited a huge mess from Bush. He promised real change – he was going to start regulating the financial crisis, health care, jobs, etc. He has done nothing. Everyone needs to wake up – it doesn’t matter who’s elected or what party they belong to – our “government” has been bought off years ago.They are all greedy and corrupt. The only way true change is going to happen is if we fire them all and start over again from scratch.

It all boils down to two political parties, both of which would rather be in power over a 2d or 3d world country that see their opponents be in power over a 1st world country.

I still remember when Nixon went to China. When he returned to the U.S. the Watergate scandal began.

I voted for Ralph Nader in 2008 and I’m still proud of it! Yes, I knew he wouldn’t win but my conscience is clear because I voted for the best man, not the lesser of two evils. Nader said Obama was a phony because he was surrounded by big shots. No one listened to him. Whats it going to take to make you people see that BOTH major parties are in the pockets of the rich and it will always be business as usual in Washington as long as we believe everything the media tells us! The media told us Obama was for change, they lied! Obama even suckered Andy Griffin, Ron Howard and Henry Winkler!
