  1. DUDE! WOW! Where did you find those?
  2. Obama fires the Flip-Flopper Cannon... The Illinois senator tried to portray McCain as a flip-flopper, something the Republican Party was able to do with former candidate and Obama supporter John Kerry in 2004. “Sen. McCain once knew better. He said that he couldn't vote for the Bush tax cuts in good conscience because they were too skewed to the wealthiest Americans. But now he wants to make those same tax cuts permanent and now give even more to those same folks." Obama continued, "Later, John McCain said it was irresponsible to cut taxes during a time of war because we couldn't afford them. But now he’d continue running up hundreds of billions of dollars in debt while spending billions of dollars a day in Iraq. There’s nothing conservative about that. There’s nothing fiscally prudent about that.”
  3. Bush is saying he is considering legislation to make sure these detainees are dealt with. aka legislation that will make sure a supreme court ruling does NOT apply to anything he wants to happen. el dictador del presidente!!
  4. QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 02:55 PM) Basically, yes. And because Lisa Madigan can't chase down Blago for it (being the daughter of Michael), they will punt to the feds. And I wouldn't be surprised if Blago is indicted, either before or after the next election. preferably before
  5. QUOTE (jackie hayes @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 02:50 PM) Fitzgerald has hardly been a Bush puppet. Let me clarify, I am not suggesting Fitzgerald is involved. I also made sure I said consider the source int he title. I actually have a lot of respect for Fitzgerald/ He's done a really great job.
  6. I would much prefer a 3some of Audrey (Megyn Price) and Jennifer (Bianca Kajlich) from Rules of Engagement.
  7. QUOTE (jackie hayes @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 02:33 PM) I would guess that prosecutors do this sort of thing whenever anyone is connected to a major political figure. It doesn't mean they're out to get Obama, it's just that bringing down any crooked politician has got to be one hell of a colorful feather in a prosecutor's cap. unfortunately, there has been so much politicizing of the justice department by this administration that NOTHING is out of the realm of possibility.

  11. QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jun 11, 2008 -> 05:29 PM) New NBC Poll Obama - 48 McCain - 41 An interesting perspective... It's worth putting Obama's lead into this perspective: Bush never trailed Kerry in the 2004 NBC/WSJ polls that measured registered voters' preference for Bush, Kerry, and Nader. And Bush's lead was never bigger than four points. Here were the NBC/WSJ trial heats from March 2004 (when Kerry pretty much locked up the nomination) to late October 2004: March (Mar.6-8): Bush 46%, Kerry 43%, Nader 5% May (May 1-3): Bush 46%, Kerry 42%, Nader 5% June (June 25-28): Bush 45%, Kerry 44%, Nader 4% July (July 19-21): Bush 47%, Kerry 45%, Nader 2% August (Aug.23-25): Bush 47%, Kerry 45%, Nader 3% September (Sept.17-19): Bush 48%, Kerry 45%, Nader 2% Mid October (Oct.16-18): Bush 48%, Kerry 46%, Nader 2% Late October (Oct.29-31): Bush 48%, Kerry 47%, Nader 1% Final Results: 50.7%, Kerry 48.3%
  12. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 01:23 PM) Anyone in the US has the protection of the Constitution. It was ruled early this year or last year that Gitmo counts as US property, even though it is leased from Cuba. all else fails... fire the judge that wont rule in your favor... http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2008/05/29/judge-khadr.html
  13. QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 01:14 PM) I agree, but I find the idea that they can just be held by our country in some sort of legal black hole equally reprehensible. It makes us look like buffoons, not to mention its morally wrong. After weeks in detention, if they aren't charged with something (militarily or otherwise), then they are basically POW's. And we need to treat them with more respect than we do. Its one of those things that SHOULD seperate us from other, lesser nations. It makes me ill that we fell down to their level. But Bush said they are not POWs, so they are not subject to the Geneva conventions.. but they are not privy to constitutional rights. Therefore, they must not be human and do not fall under any law. We can do to them as we please.

  17. OOPS!! McCain in 2005: no Third Bush Term, huh? First he loves Dich Cheny, now he has man-love for Bush.
  18. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 10:14 AM) You know what? I simply disagree with this and I think Fox news and Olbermann show why. On cable, you basically have the right to serve the market. There's very little regulation, especially on news channels, requiring anything in terms of content. And frankly, I think that a setup where you have 1 channel that leans to the left, one channel that leans to the right, and one channel that tries to be the "Hard news" network is an entirely reasonable setup. It's serving what the market seems to want. There's clearly a market appearing for left-leaning commentary on the air (Olbermann is now passing O'Reilly in the 25-49 demographics), there's been a market for right wing commentary for years (See; the Fox News ratings), and quite frankly when there's something happening in the world that I simply want to know "WTF happened", I still turn to CNN. Over the public airwaves, there's a different standard that needs to be applied, because getting access to the public airwaves, like NBC, ABC, CBS, and Fox have, requires that those channels are doing something to serve the public good. So there certainly needs to be added focus on them and on keeping some measure of balance across them, while at the same time still trying to get across the facts. But on cable, the thing that annoyed me was that for about 5 years, because the network execs wanted to be patriotic, I had no market that was serving people like me. Ditto talk radio for like 20 years. actually. I think you have a valid argument there. I think you may have a convert I'm done arguing. lol
  19. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 09:37 AM) I am judging by what I see here, and I have seen zero effort, at all, to be fair and balanced, let alone consistant. I see everything that is disagreed with mocked and dismissed, all of the while expressing outrage when the samethings are done to someone you support. Maybe if you posted like that, it wouldn't be so easy to judge. If you really don't like that, there isn't much that I can do about it. Its kinda hard to take that post seriously when you post stuff mocking McCain and Hillary all of the time. There is a VERY big difference between personal political beliefs and being in the "public trust" of the media. Especially when you work for a company that is "fair and balanced" Everyone is entitled to their political positions and beliefs, free speech protects . That stop at the door the moment you walk into the doors of a news media company in my opinion. People go to Fox and CNN and MSNBC and ABC to get the news, not news that is slanted to shape public opinion. I am equally annoyed with Olberman's extreme bias. He's "special comments" often make me squirm because they are so hate filled and harsh. So, I am being fair her. But at least MSNBC will roll out Scarbourgh and Buchanan. Fox... Hannity's whipping boy Allen Colmes... nice balance.
  20. McCain kinda Flip-Flops Again... McCain: I Can't Stop Outside Groups From Attacking Obama hmmmm...
  21. QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 07:29 AM) Laurie Dhue doesn't work for Fox anymore... but she was SMOKING. Malkin is decent looking but I just can't stand to look at her when her lips are flapping. WOW!
  22. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 09:01 AM) Then to top it off, going into the other parties "only" threads to do it. That is pretty gutsy to call other people on the stuff you are doing IMO. I am an independent. I have no political affiliation. On many issues, I indeed am lock step a republican. In others.. a democrat. This year, I happen to support Obama. I will most likely vote for some republican officials.
