Republicans say voting machines are safe, they also say America is safe
It has been proved using very unsophisticated means that the voting machines are easily hacked and results changed. Are Republicans as wrong about America's safety as well?

3. You had better tell them it's safe too, or they may drill holes in
your teeth just for fun....


http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0074860/
Quite apart from the infamous torture scene, which I found extremely difficult to watch without howling in horror (actually that's a lie, I DID howl) this film is FULL of nervous tension that occasionally boils over - the way it's been done is masterful. The bouncing-ball scene in the darkened building should be utterly prosaic, but it really isn't - the way it's choreographed and shot brings such an air of menace and trepidation you'll be biting your nails off. There's much of a similar vein in 'Marathon Man', and although the storyline is sometimes almost buried through the relentless suffocating tension, it's extremely watchable (with a cushion to hide behind at certain points) and one of the greatest non-Hitchcock thrillers I've ever seen. Don't hesitate!

4. The Repukes are good at the innovative use of words
Typically to mean their opposite: peace, freedom, fairness, legal, etc.
