Lawrence O'Donnell says only 15% if Anerucabs are reoresebted in the new debt commission

[housewolf]

All of the senators & representatives are from small states, none of the high-population states Calif, Texas, NY, etc.

[Poiuyt]

1. What?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. If Anerucabs are reoresebted?

Sorry, you kinda lost me there....

[MineralMan]

5. Americans are represented.

A one key right hand shift to the left is the cause of this. Common mistake.

[MineralMan]

7. Wait. I just checked. An Anerucab is a form of pedicab

in India, propelled by a Hindu fellow named Aneru. It's his second job. At night, he does customer service for Bank of America.

[Imajika]

20. LOL

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

8. *whew* Thanks, I was kind of worried

about all those Anerucabs not being properly reoresebted.

[MineralMan]

10. See my #8. It appears I was incorrect.

[Enrique]

49. you need to do a visual thread

show pictures of Americans and Anerucabs so we know the difference. ;-)

[housewolf]

[Confusious]

169. F U autocorrect?

Oh. and points for words I have never seen before. EVER.

[MADem]

13. I thought, damn, I'm outta the loop--never heard of them! nt

[personman]

154. Thats what I thought!

You read enough, you begin to think you have some understanding of how the world works, and then someone mentions Anerucabs are reoresebted.

...and I see it's high on the DU greatest page... and I'm thinking, shit I really hope this is a bad typo or some sort of social experiment (See if you can get all of DU pissed-off about Anerucabs and whether or not they are reoresebted, without anyone having a single idea what they are arguing about.)

Thinking Jesus... I've been completely blind to the plight of the Anerucabs and whether or not they are reoresebted. What sort of ignorant insensitive prick am I?!?

Also, like to say I'm sorry to the OP. It's an innocent enough mistake but the hilarity does sort of detract from his/her point.

3. Uh, you might want to check your hand to keyboard interface

there. I believe you've shifted your right hand one character to the left. Americans and represented is what I think you meant.

[Armstead]

63. Might have been typing on an Ipad......The autocorrect can do some strange stuff

And as I have discovered can really mangle typing

[readmoreoften]

98. Yes. It's a frickin pain.

[Hissyspit]

193. You can turn it off.

Settings > General > Keyboard

Also:

http://www.iphonehacks.com/2009/02/iphone-trick-quick-and-easy-trick-to-turn-off-autocorrect-feature.html

But turning on or turning off the auto-correct feature each time using iPhone's Settings app is quite time consuming (so end up keeping it turned on all the time).

So the tip by the Lifehacker reader is quite useful as you can use it anytime.

"A bilingual reader of our Aussie cousin, Lifehacker Australia, found that by typing out a "z," then touching and dragging to back up the cursor behind it, he could write as far outside the constraints of his native land's language as he wanted. Typing behind the Z leaves auto-correct unable to guess what word you could possibly be forming—"Restaurantz?" it asks, with a resigned shrug—so it leaves you alone. Works on any iPhone/touch app that features spelling correction, actually."

Actually this trick works with any letter/word and isn't specific to the letter "z" . If you move the cursor directly behind any letter/word then you should be able to type without the auto-correct feature correcting you.

[cui bono]

180. Well SOMEBODY's got to shift to the left!!!

Reoresebting is an example of gpvermbemt overstepping its bounds and is un-fucking-constitutional!

89. Regarding the issue of reoresebtedion ....

Lawrence O'donnell missed the fact that there are MANY committees in Congress that do not have representative make-up according to 'population percentages' of the states.
And I don't remember any other committee being 'analyzed' and/or criticized for not having a congress member from a 'large' state on it.

Lawrence was acting like the members on the super-committee are going to 'enact' their 'recommendations' - they are NOT.

The FULL Senate and House will be voting on the proposals that the committee brings forth.

So, ALL of America WILL BE represented - during the 'voting process' when ALL the Senators and House members vote.

[pinboy3niner]

93. Good post, well said

There are valid criticisms to be made about the process, but the notion of 'taxation without representation' is not one of them. It's an absolute non-starter.
