QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 22, 2011 -> 03:27 PM) And yet this is our plan for spending trillions in social programing every year in this country. But that's "saving" us dumbass Amurrikkkans from ourselves.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 22, 2011 -> 04:16 PM) LOL at telling the President to "get out of the way". He's the one pushing FOR this. The reason it isn't getting done is the people to his left screaming about cuts, and the people to his right screaming they refuse to do anything different on revenue. I've blamed Obama for an awful lot of bad policy so far, but on this, he's absolutely not the problem. I'd put the majority of blame on the fact that the GOP made a grand bargain to support tea party policies to the point of refusing any attempt and compromise, and then to a lesser but still significant extent, the lefties refusing to see that the government's spending is out of control. What are you smoking?

QUOTE (Cknolls @ Jul 19, 2011 -> 09:44 PM) The gov't will be able to service its debt. So they will not default. Shhhhh. Don't tell anyone that, so we can slap through a massive tax increase while screaming about killing grandma. 18 months ago all over again.

It is sooooo hot...
QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Jul 18, 2011 -> 02:06 PM) I haven't had to mow my grass for 2 weeks. It's been about 2 months here. My yard's f***ing dead. Day 22 in a row of 100+. But it is summer.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jul 18, 2011 -> 08:11 PM) Just got an email, they will be calling my references in the next few days. That has to be a good sign. Indeed. Best of luck - but when they get to that point it's pretty good.

Casey Anthony Verdict
The jury did exactly what I would have done in the same situation, because I pretty much echoed the same exact thoughts before the trial ever concluded. Did Casey kill her daughter? I'm 99.99% sure she did, but the prosecution has to prove that, and they did a pretty damn shameful job of just that. If people want to be pissed off, they need to be pissed off at the prosecution with their all or nothing mentality of the presentation of the case.

The official "end of Ozzie soon?" thread
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 05:30 PM) I don't agree at all. This team is loaded with talent. The potential is there. I don't disagree, but I do think that the message from Ozzie has ran the course because the results just are not there anymore. That's more my point.

The official "end of Ozzie soon?" thread
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 05:28 PM) So Cowley reads Soxtalk or WSI, sees Gammons is predicting Ozzie's demise and starts tweeting this. If Ozzie is gone remember how Joe will tell everyone he had the story first. Kinda cool to make up s*** and be the one who had the story first. I mean, resources from some basement dwelling posters in their underwear can't be right, can they?

The official "end of Ozzie soon?" thread
Unfortunately, the cupboard is bare underneath, and the people at the big league level are underachieveing in massive proportions. I'm not sure Ozzie Guillen (who I support) is going to change anything any more. His schtick has ran its course.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 05:21 PM) Something tells me Ozzie is trying to show JR how much KW f***ed up signing Dunn and playing this silly game. Unfortunately the White Sox record could be the victim. Winnar.
