Construction on the cell
QUOTE (That funky motion @ Nov 14, 2008 -> 11:03 PM) I saw somewhere that this is part one of three. That they couldn't get it all done before opening day, so they split it up. their description doesnt mesh up with the renderings we've seen. Not my animated GF a few pages back. That isnt just a "renovation"

Obama's Cabinet and Staff
Interesting note from CNN (Blizer and Carville)... Clinton being offered the SOS is legit. Normally, if the story was even remotely false or misleading, they'd get phone calls from people VERY high up in the Clinton or Obama organizations telling them it's 100% false and to "shut up". Neither Carville, nor Blitzer has gotten a phone call like that.

Obama's Cabinet and Staff
QUOTE (YASNY @ Nov 14, 2008 -> 03:25 PM) Since Obama has offered the SoS position, doesn't that justify her foreign policy qualifications? Here's the thing, she HAS good credentials, the problem was that during the primaries she over exaggerated them and got caught.

Obama's Cabinet and Staff
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 14, 2008 -> 11:15 AM) Depending on the selection of the person and the authority granted to them, that sounds like a very, very good idea. The tech regulatory market has been a disaster the last 8 years, we've fallen behind the rest of the western world on all sorts of things from internet penetration to broadband access to communications costs, and that's a direct function of the regulatory environment and the fact that we just hand the biggest couple companies whatever they want. In my opinion, a Tech Czar has several tasks in the next 4 years. 1) broadband deployment 2) digital health records 3) insure network neutrality what others am I missing? I know there has to be others.

The Republican Thread
QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Nov 14, 2008 -> 09:30 AM) http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081113/ap_en_tv/palin_hoax Palin never actually thought Africa was a country. It was a hoax. I knew she could not have possibly been that dumb wow. Fox really wanted to smear her then. I believe they were the first to report that Africa thing.

Picture of an Exoplanet
QUOTE (Texsox @ Nov 14, 2008 -> 08:03 AM) This was predicted, once we elected a dark man from the middle east, an exoplanet would appear, and soon we'd be communists . . . HELLP!! I think i read that in the book of revelations somewhere.

Obama's Cabinet and Staff
QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Nov 14, 2008 -> 07:25 AM) Obama creating a Tech Czar. that has been around for a while. I think he mentioned that like a year ago. But I think it's important in the 21st century. I wouldn't even have a GUESS as to who might be a good choice.

Obama's Cabinet and Staff
Posted this in the Dem forum, but I'll pull it from there and post it here: Secretary of State... Hillary Clinton? According to MSNBC, she's under consideration per two Obama advisers. (This has apparently been floating around recently, but today is the first time it was reported) Clinton is either on her way to, or already in Chicago on "personal business". Others under consideration: Kerry, Richardson, Daschle

GOP Lawsuit - Ease Up On McCain-Feingold
QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 12:38 PM) McCain-Feingold started as a set of good ideas, and ended up passing as something very flawed. We need real campaign finance reform, but the problem is, Congress and the President are not motivated to change it. see, they want to loosen the M-F rules, I'd argue the rules need to be much tighter. Especially with these joint accounts that go around public financing and "independent expenditures"
