QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Jan 14, 2006 -> 12:29 PM) In this century, I believe there have been 2 Presidents elected to office by electoral college who did not carry the popular vote: one Republican (Bush II), and one Democrat (Kennedy). The fact that there have been more GOP Presidents in the last 25 years is not relevant to discussion of the electoral college, since Reagan, Reagan, Bush I and Bush II II all won the popular vote (most by a large margin). The electoral college has no logical reason for existence at this point in time. President is a national office, and should be voted on nationally. Like I said earlier, I hope we have another election soon where that duality occurs, so that we can get this thing knocked out. And I could care less which party does the complaining. Let's have some objectivity in this discussion (instead of just flinging stuff from the wings). Im in favor of keeping the status quo. Im absolutely positive the founders had this very same debate when the Constitution was being drawn up and theres a very good reason why things are the way they are. We get rid of the electoral college then the views of the small states become irrelevant as candidates focus on Cali, NY, TX, IL, OH and Florida.

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,181462,00.html 58% of Americans according to a poll believe the President should have the authority to authorize wiretaps without a warrant against terror suspects. So there.

You mean to tell me that Soxtalk has been cleansed of Anthrax's presence?! HAPPY DAYS!!!! Im so glad I stayed out of that stupid thread.

QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Jan 13, 2006 -> 09:58 PM) Yeah because cops have never been known to strongarm anybody or act out of line at all. /soaked in green Oh and because that sometimes happens you automatically assume that particular cop was "bullying" someone with nothing but conjecture to back it up. Pathetic. Even by your low standards.

QUOTE(rventura23 @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 11:16 PM) Thats really bad. Carson's a great QB and seems to be a good guy. He had a lot of potential and I hope he makes a comeback. I was really hoping to see him take it to the Steelers and then go on to challenge the Colts. It sucks that their season had to end like that. Nobody wants to see a team lose because of a freak injury.........that is unless they're playing the Bears, then anything goes.

QUOTE(Pierzynski 12 @ Jan 13, 2006 -> 11:49 PM) Yes 20,500 were there. WOW You mean they can sell the place out AND have the game on TV? I thought that was impossible Wirtz.

I think this is total horses***. Pure conjecture and you just eat it up. BAAH!

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Jan 13, 2006 -> 09:44 PM) And outing a co-ed using birth control to the campus and to her mother did what exactly to help the ROTC or admissions situations? Dude, you're grasping for straws here.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jan 13, 2006 -> 07:33 PM) I would much rather of seen him brought to justice for his crimes, but the fact he won't be able to kill anyone else, is comforting in a shallow kind of way. If this is true then just like the President promised.........we brought justice to him.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jan 13, 2006 -> 07:28 PM) I don't want to speak for someone else, but I think it's obvious that black-on-white crime and white-on-black crime draw much more media attention than white-on-white and black-on-black. Sure cause if it was White on Black crime its automatically a hate crime and all the leftists, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and whoever else would descend on the area and start crusading.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jan 13, 2006 -> 07:18 PM) Pakistani sources are suggesting that a U.S. airstrike a few days ago inside of Pakistan on a suspected Al Qaeda safehouse may very well have killed Ayman Al-Zawahiri, the #2 man in that organization and the guy who probably deserves most of the credit for its construction. No confirmation yet and there probably won't be any for a couple days, and I think it's been reported a couple times that he may be dead and none of them have panned out thus far, but this would be a wonderful victory if we got him. Keeping fingers crossed. Killing him would be huge.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 11:03 PM) Someone should hold this up anytime Teddy goes into a ethics based attack. Kennedy would have made a great swim teacher. Hell, he could even swim like a champ while wasted. Too bad he forgot to teach his girl how to swim. SIGH.

Dude, SSI, dont you realize that only Republicans are criminals? Dont you realize that Democrats s*** doesn't stink? Thats Kennedy's world.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 10:57 PM) His job is to be a partisan hack. No more, no less. People like him aren't interested in whether Alito would make a good judge or not but rather to oppose simply for the sake of opposition. Fortunately, however, leftist hypocrites like Kennedy are nothing more than a noisy irritant and nothing more.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 10:35 PM) Did Mrs. Alito's coaching not cover the fact that her husband might actually be asked to explain how his documented history as a conservative idealogue and basically someone who will apparently say anything to get a job leaves him qualified to sit on the high court? Say anything to get him a job? Interesting how you can take the moral high ground here when his harshest critic would say anything to get out of a manslaughter rap for getting wasted and driving his girl off a pier. Kennedy is nobody to question anyones character. :rolly

QUOTE(soxman352000 @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 06:00 PM) Good this guy is a total douche bag. He doesn't represent the ideals of all Christians. I'm sick of how the media tries to portray him as a main voice in Christianity You make an excellent point. Assbags like Robertson are not the true face of Christianity. The true face of Christianity are the people who live their lives the right way, take care of their families and get on well with others. The media doesn't care about that though. They just love to take any chance they can to trash Christians.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 10:31 PM) Ah, if only that ever could happen. That woule be the third successive GWB SCOTUS nominee to crash and burn, and that woudl be so much bigger than any attempt to embarass any single man on the stand. 3rd straight? Alito will be sitting on the court here soon and he's crashing and burning?

QUOTE(EvilMonkey @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 10:26 PM) I think if Bush gets another chance to nominate someone maybe he should nominate Teddy himself! Let's see him stand up to the same kind of attacks he and his ilk seem to like spewing. I wonder what publications Teddy subscribes to that have statements in it that would make him 'guilty by association'? I am sure there would be questions about Mary Jo, and who knows what else. Maybe even into questions about where his family money came from to begin with? And yes, Fla, I understand the difference you mentioned. But the underlying idea is still the same, In a partisan way, those against Alito were quick to condemn his wife's acts as a mere ploy, but yet steadfastly defend Sheehan, who is as big a publicity-whore as there ever was. God forbid a mans wife gets upset when her husband is subjected to unfair and unduly harsh criticism from a bunch of leftist no-nothings. Aren't liberals the one preaching compassion for others? Leftist hypocrasy number 53245124512.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 02:04 PM) Interesting article that sort of ties to this... December 2005 set a record of collections for corporate taxes and spending, and somehow we managed to run a small surplus. http://www.breitbart.com/news/2006/01/12/D8F3AUAG7.html I thought all these tax cuts were making us lose revenues? ITS A CONSPIRACY!!! THE ILLEGAL, IMMORAL, REACTIONARY BUSH ADMINISTRATION IS COOKING THE BOOKS!!!!

QUOTE(Steve Bartman's my idol @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 11:15 AM) I don't put any credence into anything Chomsky says...he's an ignorant, f##king douchebag. You can add to that a leftist POS.

QUOTE(Rex Kickass @ Jan 11, 2006 -> 11:01 PM) Would that be right next to the book about "How To Have Your Daddy Keep You From Being Classified AWOL?" Or maybe next to the "I helped fund Anti-American terrorists for 20 Years and All I Got Was This Fat Oil Contract From The Federal Government" T-Shirt? I prefer the following titles. "How to serve your country and get elected........and RE-ELECTED President in spite of lame ass leftist smear attempts by washed up, stupid reporters." Or "I helped fund people who were fighting the single greatest threat our nation ever faced and in so doing helped bring about their end."

QUOTE(Rex Kickass @ Jan 11, 2006 -> 02:09 PM) *waits for Chappaquiddick joke* Im waiting for Kennedy to publish a book entitled...........how to kill a young girl and get away with a simple "Im Sorry".

QUOTE(Rex Kickass @ Jan 11, 2006 -> 10:27 PM) I expect a 55-45 vote on this. Party line. And if the Dems wanna say "Hell No," that's fine. I just don't expect a filibuster. I agree. They try and filibuster Alito and the gloves come off.
