  1. no one gets your bad jokes kap
  2. Oh hey joe, remember when you campaigned for the Republican candidate, and were still given all of your leadership positions...Oh, well we're stripping them. We'll see how his vote changes then.
  3. out of curiosity does kap realize how many DOJ and Obama appointees STILL have holds on them with no verbal objections? I think it's no secret the Dems have been unable to hold their caucus, but that's what happens when you allow conservatives into your party, but it's better to have kay hagans/lincolns/nelsons than the opposite who most certainly would just be threatening filibuster. They have the ability to be whipped, but they clearly wanted a conservative bill.
  4. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 27, 2009 -> 12:47 PM) The Bengals were running the cover 2 most of Sunday, and it seemed to work pretty well. Bottom line, if you dont get a pass rush, the cover 2 is worthless. When you are pressuring the QB a lot, it works great true for any scheme ever.
  5. specifics of the pub. option aren't out, possiblly the medicare +5 or schumers negotiated rates, as it stands, a mandate for health insurance will probably pass and a public option will be instituted where states can opt-out if they don't want it. Those without insurance can get on the PO, and not sure about underinsured.
  6. I don't believe opt-in is being considered. It will probably be worked through st. legislatures and not given straight to crazy govs. FWIW, Medicare was opt-out when instituted.
  7. yeah there was an article in columbia, mo about how racist the dress requirements were for bars.
  8. QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Oct 26, 2009 -> 07:42 PM) In America, you vould keell to see a bear on skates. . . In Russia, bear on skates vould KEELL YOU! just, the best. I bow.
  9. I'd be worried. The gay community has a history of targeting anti-gays and beating them mercilessly, tying them to posts.
  10. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 27, 2009 -> 01:25 AM) Must have locked up 60 votes then? I think they do for at least cloture, and then at least 50 for passing.
  11. QUOTE (lostfan @ Oct 27, 2009 -> 12:35 AM) Putting the public option in the final bill? um...yeah. The PO was declared dead in the water 4 weeks ago, the baucus bill had no PO, had each one get voted down. Reid has appeared to not want to take any responsibility, and then... the HELP PO with an opt-out. Nuts. I'm thrilled.
  12. So, frankly, I'm pleased with Reid. Wow. Totally shocked at him going for this, and pleased that Baucus was saying he'd vote for something like that. Just need to whip Bayh/Lincoln/Nelson not to vote against f'n cloture.
  13. so yeah, there was a pretty big press conference today, I guess no one saw it.
  14. Jebus, fwiw, dbaho, i've always been supremely impressed with how knowledgeable you are about things happening a hemisphere away. You are truly a model for me.
  15. one quick fix would be to put BEEKMAN IN FOR f***ING OMIYALE
  16. If he gets that much, I kind of hope he fails.
  17. This was helpful to me, I didn't pay much attention to our draft picks this year, compared to years previous. Still not sure what to think about Jared Mitchell.
  18. QUOTE (Disco72 @ Oct 25, 2009 -> 10:08 PM) Wolfe up the middle - great playcalling. See that rollout Palmer is using successfully to avoid the rush? Why wouldn't that work with Cutler? Turner can't even emulate a screen that's successful around the league, you think he can insert a roll out?
  19. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 25, 2009 -> 10:01 PM) So what team out there is going to be able to beat Peyton this year? Clearly the bears.
  20. QUOTE (kapkomet @ Oct 25, 2009 -> 02:13 AM) Yea, they want to keep their job. lol, from someone who routinely goes after the irresponsibility of media, I wouldn't think you'd get behind one of it's laziest practices. I've been having a back and forth with Josh Marshall, and, I think what it's coming down to is sources will only speak under anonymity now because it's so clear that anonymity will be granted without much fight. I highly doubt congress aides and bureau workers are speaking to the media less than they were 30 years ago, they are probably just able to do so secretively. edit: this came about from a TPM story citing anonymous sources that the white house was pushing the trigger option for the PO, which is retarded. And the WH shoots it down right away. And then people were like, who the hell told you this and why was anonymity granted. It was interesting.
  21. I remember watching playoff teams, and seeing them get a base hit, and steal, and then hit the runner home. And I would think, my god, this is why the white sox will never win in the playoffs. They can't execute like these teams. (not small ball) But then we get into the playoffs and executed so much, so beautifully. Honest to God thinking about it makes me heavy, sports are so wonderful. We executed a flippin suicide squeeze in the playoffs to seal a victory (well, cap it off.) But my god my anxiety was so high in the playoffs and we went 11-1 ahahaha. I remember skipping all my classes after the angels loss. And I had a german test at nine am after we won the world series, going in very drunk and hadn't slept all night. I assure you, that story is special because I never did stuff like that. (got an A)
  22. QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Oct 25, 2009 -> 06:36 AM) You can restore them to default in itunes. Right. The important thing is just make sure you are getting the right jailbreak for your firmware and then don't do any apple updates. The latter won't destroy your phone/touch, but it will f*** up the jail break.
