I am not going to make any money. Honest. No money. If you can
figure out a way for me to make money please tell me. Just to prove
your point, give me an imaginary way to make money. What big magazine
is going to pay gobs of money from a random bunch of photographers
taking pictures of a line? I mean, someone might want to run it
(that'd be cool) but I'm thinking it's likely to be Obscure Politics
Weekly with a budget of about $3.28 a year.

Really, Colyn, tell me. How the heck am I gonna make money off this
project? Spend money, yah, I'm doing that, my own. Make it? It
ain't gonna happen.

During the Great Depression, photographers said the same thing. A
number of them took photos that are now a part of history and are
worth far more than we realize..

hey cowboy, what brand of digital camera do you consider appropriate for
a
'real american?'

Actually, "real american" photographers...ummm, actually, I mean most
"real photographers" don't even shoot digital in the first place...

...they shoot Large Format ;).

i can't think of one that is made in the usa.

I'm not exactly sure because I'm not wearing my glasses, but is that a
"Made in USA" on the bottom of this Kodak DCS-14n:

lol, "made in usa"... and lol that "real photographers" don't use digital...
thanks for making your stupidity even more obvious to those that may have
missed it the first time. did you actually read the article that you
refered us to? beyond the fact that the lens is made in japan, here's what
the article said about the construction of this "made in the usa" camera...
"Anyone familiar with Nikon SLR's will immediately recognize the F80 'top
half' to the camera, the body itself is custom made from magnesium alloy to
Kodak's design, the top is supplied by Nikon. The photographic side of the
camera is based on the F80, the electronics and digital portion of the
camera by Kodak Professional. The fourteen megapixel full frame CMOS sensor
is made by the Belgium company FillFactory and is actually produced by Tower
Semiconductor in Israel."
at best the should only say 'assembled' in america. but we understand that a
bush lover would believe what he or she reads and believing it since lying
about something usually makes you feel better about it comes naturally...

wait a second, don't you mean to say that bush whitehouse decision to go
to
war was "nothing but a scam to make money off others. and a scam is
wrong
no matter how you slice it." certainly you don't think that we are safer
now. no one is that delusional are they?

just say no to lies.

What I find stupid about this arguement is the President cannot go to
war without a majority vote from both houses of Congress.

As I recall he got such a vote from both Democrats (who are trying to
use this stupid arguement to win the White House) and the
Republicans..

Are we safer now??

Not in a world where Islamic extremists live..

Now you want to know if I am a Democrat or Republican? Right?

Neither.................

you are right, the president can not go to war without a majority vote of
approval from the house and congress. knowing this should help you
understand why he decided to lie to them, the american people, the united
nations, and the rest of the world, and dragged the good name of this
country and the highest office in the land down into the gutter. murdering
thousands of americans as a result of his lies, and maiming countless other
servicemen and women that you rarely hear about, not to mention the
foreigners that have been killed. and yet the republicans try to impeach
clinton over a blowjob.

It doesn't matter what they are worth now; how much did they bring to
the photographer who took them, and how quickly?

I didn't lie about anything. I simply pointed to a photo of a digital
camera that says "Made in USA" on it, you dumbass!

Of course, I should have expected such a response from someone that
uses a porn site domain for their e-mail address.

Just out of curiosity, "gwb", do your parents know that you are
posting to rpd?

Hey, dum****?

Did you not see the little smiley face next to that comment, or are
you so strung-up in the political bull**** that you can't see the
forest through the socialist smoke screen?

Had Bill Clinton done his job in 93 when terrorists struck the towers
instead of getting a blowjob, those thousands killed would still be
here..and so would the towers..

Not to defend Bush but I doubt he lied and where did you get the
thousands murdered by him from??

When making accusations you need to present proof..afterall our
Constitution says innocent till proven guilty..

The bothersome thing is the rights being requested, not the fact that they
are being requested for free. Had he said he wanted you to donate rights
for use directly by his organization for publicity or whatever, that would
be one thing -- and what the organization is needs to be specified, because
that will be the reason people either are or are not willing to donate. It
would be no different from donating money or volunteering to work on an
election campaign. But to ask for permanent, blanket usage rights is absurd,
especially without being clear as to whom you are giving those rights to.

He did specify the organizations, one being People for the American
Way, a citizens' lobby of long standing.
