Lots of change, big change and change from what we have now.

From war mongering to peace and negotiation.


Otherwise known as appeasement.


From pay your own health care to free government health care.


Nothing has ever been free from the government, ever.


From rich people having all those tax loopholes to making them pay their
fair share.


It's hard to give tax loopholes to people who don't pay taxes.


From big corporations raping people to people raping big corporations.


I've never been raped by a big corporation. In fact the only entity that
I've ever felt raped by is the government and you seem to want to give
them a bigger dick to do it with.


From blacks being held back to blacks being put forward.


So you are racist. That explains everything.


From environment raping to taking care of the Earth.

From man turning the world into a hothouse to man reversing the trend.


The US has some of the strictest environmental laws in the
industrialized world.


From crumbling infrastructure to massive public works and trains instead
of cars.


Don't worry we'll all probably be back to walking under your favored
socialist regime.

From freedom of religion to freedom FROM religion.


So you want an government that bans religion. You're about 18 years off
for the USSR. You might try China.

And the list goes on. There are so many things to change.


Like the country you choose to live in.

There are some most excellent video editing and splicing utilities out
there along with digital manipulation to create animated life like
cartoons.

Duh, It ain't no cartoon. Ain't no way anybody can take some little cell
phone video and make the kite get stuck on the wing like that and look
absolutely real. You gotta have something to edit and splice in. Where
does anybody get a kiteboard snagged onto a jet airplane wing to splice
in?

I'm not saying it is real or not but..

It is easier with a cell phone video than with higher definition video.
You expect that to look bad. If the video can be gotten into a computer
you can do pretty much what ever you want with it. What used to require
a bank of Sun Workstations can now be done with the average laptop and
software that is either cheap or free.

But you never answered my question is it real or is it fake? If
it's
fake then how did they fake it so good? I checked Snopes to see if it
was an urban legend but they don't say anything about it.

So you think that all Hollywood movies with effects are for real,
beeing so well done???


That's different! This is a crummy little cell phone video most likely.
People can't easily fake a cell phone video.

Boy, you are gullible. Did you notice the cut-away when the plane
supposedly snags the kiteboarder? Oh, guess you missed that.

So if I go out a make a cheesy video that looks like a crappy home
video, and fake something, people will believe it simply because the
video is a poor quality, shaky, hand shot piece? Interesting...

Yep, I live in California so my vote doesn't count anyway. No reason
not to write in a name. California is geographically one of the most
conservative states in the US (lots of red, a little blue). However,
we have these two little areas called LA and SF that send all our
votes to the dems regardless of who is running.

Thats why are state is broke. Im going to laugh when we cant pay the
pensions and thats coming sooner than anyone thinks. They have already taxed

Take a look at the article "Digital Image Forensics" in the 2008/06
Scientific American http://sciamdigital.com/index.cfm?
fa=Products.ViewIssuePreview&ARTICLEID_CHAR=CF5BC1 44-3048-8A5E-10FE2CFC2F02C36B.
Most of these tricks get more difficult - making forgery therefore more
difficult to detect - as image quality degrades.

So you'd rather count votes by acreage than by voters?
