QUOTE (zenryan @ Apr 2, 2009 -> 05:26 PM) Too bad speed doesnt equal being a good WR. one of the problems with Orton is he didnt have enough arm strength or long distance accuracy to throw the deep ball to Hester.. we have a QB now who can.

Jay Cutler to chicago will help our chances. "Welcome to Chicago, home of the 7 time back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back Super Bowl Champion Chicago Bears" would sure sound nice during the opening ceremonies.

ok, so now we... ya know... need some people to throw too. Forte cant run for 1500 and catch 1500.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Apr 2, 2009 -> 07:52 AM) I'm sorry, but there is no way they are going to allow Europe (Madrid) to host the '04, '06, '12, and '14 games and then also give Madrid the '16 when there are cities such as Chicago and Rio on the list. You can not base initial scores on who has the highest/lowest chances of getting it. If that were true Rio wouldnt even be on the list as Doha scored better. Fact is, the IOC wants Rio to prove itself capable and if they can come close and can prove security won't be an issue they will get the games. The IOC is very aware that no So. American country has ever hosted. It's foolish to believe things that like don't matter, especially in this day of age. I rank them as this: 1) Rio 2) Chicago 3) Tokyo 4) Madrid Madrid is last because of what you said. Tokyo is 3rd because they've hosted before, Rio is #1 because no games have ever been hosted in South America and I too have thought they want Rio to step up and prove they can do it. If not, it's in Chicago.

the producers have said more than once that not every episode will b jaw dropping. sometimes you need to set up the future.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 2, 2009 -> 12:00 AM) Interesting. 1600 was a pretty awful show, they needed to do something. it was great when they coveed the election, but then it lost it purpose and just drifted around.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 02:37 PM) These f***ers haven't responded to a thread of mine in almost 6 years. Bunch of assholes all of them. I'm outta here. Dicks. :lolhitting And good riddance!

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 04:12 PM) I do because it shows the lack of respect that these people have. In the "picture" case, it was a different term and a different circumstance all together. no no, Obama gave the queen an iPod, she gave him an autographed picture of herself.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 03:55 PM) IMO, there are no good earmarks, ever. There are good funding proposals, that get snuck in as earmarks. And if they are good, then vote on them in some useful way. 100% agree.

Megan McCain says this man (kinda NSFW) is the best man to lead the GOP. Congressman Aaron Schock.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 01:05 PM) Holy f***, now Obama gives QEII an ipod? WTF is wrong with these dips***s? nothing like giving out autographed pictures of yourself to other heads of state.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 01:29 PM) Finally, one comes across that looks fun - what President are you? OK, now, everyone guess before scrolling. Who is NSS? I don't think so. I was Woodrow Wilson

FWIW: MSNBC just confirmed that Sen. McCain is working on an alternative budget in the senate. I'd be curious to see that.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 01:36 PM) And what Obama is doing is not a bait and switch? Hmmmm. He's doing a LOT of exactly what he promise dont he campaign trail. He said we'd need to spend a lot of money in the short term to save int he long term. He NEVER said he'd balance the budget.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 12:52 PM) It doesn't guarantee a loss of money, though. It depends on several things. I see it as a bait and switch... "Look, you get all these great tax cuts, we fix the budget, and grow america... but wait, what we forgot to tell you is that you have to opt into those tax cuts, and out entire budget is based on you not doing that... so dont. but look, we gave you the option, how nice of us!"

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 12:46 PM) I think some of this is getting cherry picked and not reported correctly. This is the EXACT wording from the plan: From page 32:

Crazy Fuzzy Math: GOP Budget Plan Assumes Americans Would Choose Higher Tax Rate

Just wanted to give you guys a little info. JHood recently plugged his new show on his Facebook account and I wrote him to say i wouldnt listen since I refuse to support any Mike North endeavor. He wrote this back to me: So, i just wanted to be fair to this new radio station.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 12:21 PM) How many economies in the world are the biggest in the world? The US trades more with the rest of the world than anyone else in the world does. Whatever currency the US needs to deal with the rest of the world, would be the one they need locally, or it will put a lot of companies into a bind. I disagree. there are plenty of countries who are doing just fine who dont use the US DOllar as their national currency.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 12:26 PM) That's not exactly what it means, though. Of course everyone has their own currency, but everything is done against the dollar. The United States is in a pretty privileged status and it's also pretty unusual, since we can borrow money from other countries in our currency and even print our own money to pay it back. Dont get me wrong, I COMPLETELY understand what you are saying... and I certainly hope the world never leaves the US dollar. The point i was trying to make, and possibly not very well, is that Buchmann extrapolated out that because other countries may want to leave the US Dollar and that the US Treasury acknowledged the chance it could happen that means we want to dump the US Dollar as our internal currency... which has never been suggest by anyone I have seen that carry's any weight.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 12:14 PM) Its not a big leap from a global currency outside of the US to one inside of the US if you stop and think about it. Using something different internally would mean there would be an extra step/expense for businesses who trade internationally to change to another currency for trade in other countries. I disagree to an extent. I think it's a BIG leap to say that if the world now trades on say... the Euro... that all of a sudden I will be going to Ace Hardware and be paying for my door hinge with a Euro. When you go to other countries, it's assured you will be spending their money. I cant say I've traveled overseas... well, at all. but my wife has. And every country she goes to, she exchanges her money for local currency.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 11:44 AM) Maybe this makes sense in a roundabout way. They know it'll never pass, so they're proposing something polar-opposite to the Democrats' plans. Then, in 2010, when the economy is still stumbling, they can say "see, we told you! we didn't want to go along with their bad ideas!" It can also be turned on them and assuming the economy is on the rebound by the middle of next year, the DNC can say "See these Senators and Representatives... they wanted to repeal the Stimulus plan that rebuild this country. They wanted to do to Madicare what Bush wanted to do to social security... privatization. Do you really believe in THEIR vision for America? Tax cuts for the wealth, no plans to rebuild America, more offshore drilling. We didnt think so. This ______, vote for Democrat ______, and we'll rebuild America."

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 11:40 AM) borderline retarded ^^^^GOP As many of you know, i am an independent (raised Republican), and I really do want some policies of the GOP to succeed (not their budget though)... but the more they open their mouths, the harder and harder it is for me to root for them.
