Fantastic. China, Canada reach quick deals on oil, uranium
By Jazz Shaw | HotAir
Last month we discussed the rather alarming news that Canadian Prime
Minister Stephen Harper was planning a trip to China to discuss possible
natural resources deals with the economic superpower. It seemed no
coincidence that the trip was announced close on the heels of Barack Obama’
s decision to kick the can down the road on the Keystone XL pipeline yet
again. But at that time, I r... 阅读全帖 |

For years, conservatives looking to effect change have turned their eyes to
Washington, D.C., and the national political and media scene. Naturally, a
philosophy that promotes a centralized solution to every problem finds a
happy reception among the elites who walk the halls of power. But for those
who proclaim federalism, it has been ironic to see many Washington, D.C.-
based conservative groups frequently fall prey to the same siren song of
power, and seem most interested in buildi... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 279 | 27 你这是抬杠。我没有说要加速冲过去。虽然LZ是加速冲过去的。
这个法的宗旨是：防止误伤emergency responders.
我要的是：emergency responders也要首先注意。几乎所用的FREEWAY OR HIGHWAY 都
有路肩（SHOULDER）。应该有足够的空间了。如果不管路况，强行让人换道或减速，有可能造成车
祸。emergency responders到安全了，别人就不安全了。
我认为：合理的法应该是：你没有换道或者减速,导致了emergency responders事故，
那就重罚。如果没有导致事故，正常安全通过就不要罚。这样，可能就有很多人自动选
择：换道或者减速。
还有一个抬杠的地方：警车或者其它emergency responders的车，你通过前，他没有
SIREN 响或者闪灯，你通过时他这么干.就是“钓鱼”执法。你能如何？这种可能性是
存在的，尤其对少数族裔。不要把警察想得太高尚。 |
