"God Damn America" in context. A little extreme, but far less worse than it was described.

Obama on Oil and our Energy problem... His interaction at the very end with the Escolade driver was classic Obama. He's funny, witty, and smart.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Mar 23, 2008 -> 04:29 PM) Marquette doesn't have any worthwhile big men. OH i know. but he's at almost 20 pts and 8 as a soph. I lie his potential.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Mar 22, 2008 -> 07:50 AM) I think the Bulls need to hope this guy falls to them in the draft. http://www.nbadraft.net/admincp/profiles/brooklopez.html 30 points vs Marquette in a 1 point win and was 10-11 from the free throw line. I'd find a way to trade up.

Count Hibbard of Georgetown off my list. In a tough fought game and against a 10 seed, he scored a whopping 6 points and had 1 rebound.

Hillary Clinton Movie Trailer....

Hillary Got Caught Our Right LYING about her trip to Bosnia. Nothng is even CLOSE to what she said happened. Washington Post called her on it too. THey rated here tale as "FOUR PINOCCHIOS: Real whoppers."

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 22, 2008 -> 05:46 PM) So... do we think the recent resurgance for Obama is because of his speech? Or is it more of a return to baseline, now that the Wright thing is going away? Both. It's just how polls work. There is typically an "OH MY GOD" reaction, then people actually absorb what happened ann think "well, it isnt THAT bad". And, the speech was pretty darn good. It probably gave him the boost he needed to edge back in front. I think this richardson think might push him all the way to 50% or above.

Gallup Daily: Obama Edges Ahead of Clinton

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Mar 22, 2008 -> 12:36 PM) http://www.washingtontimes.com/apps/pbcs.d.../243762495/1001 a CLEARLY there was some political reasoning behind all this. Seriosuly, I think this will all be much ado about nothing. Just some stupid people in a situation that was GROSSLY misshandled by the state department. Clinton has ties to one of the heads who was in charge of this department. So, it's a wash.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Mar 22, 2008 -> 10:20 AM) I enjoy the immediate indignant reaction to obvious sarcasm though, sometimes its worth it. Kalapse is very good at that. See, unfortunately when it comes to the inaccurate crap about Obama, there isnt anything that is obvious anymore. I know better, and many of my fellow Obama supporters on here know better. but some people in the US dont. A lot of people in the US still think he's muslum!

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Mar 22, 2008 -> 10:02 AM) Open question: How over-the-top does one have to be to make others realize it's sarcasm? My apologies if I didnt get your sarcasm. but unfortunately with all the crap going around the internet about him these days, you never know what people actually think or believe. It is common practice on here to make your text green if you are being sarcastic. Please accept my apologies.

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Mar 22, 2008 -> 09:43 AM) Well, Obama certainly has the most to be worried about, given his trips to terrorist training camps and whatnot. oh shut up. you know that is not true.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Mar 22, 2008 -> 09:41 AM) Haven't heard much of Edwards in the past month. Is there any word on whether he's actually leaning to endorse anyone, out of the 2 candidates? Rumor had it a few weeks ago that a few weeks ago he was going to endorse Clinton. Well, as you can see, nothing happened. So, i think it's in the air. He has a contradiction. Some of his message overlaps with Clinton, some with Obama.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Mar 22, 2008 -> 09:23 AM) Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight! He'll do that by pulling all the troops home. no. by redeplying them to mor eimportant areas. He has not said he will bring them home. He talks about redeployment outside of Iraq. Yes, the TOTAL number of troops int he middle east would go down. But many would get moved to the ACTUAL war on terror, vs the false one we are involved in today.

QUOTE(103 mph screwball @ Mar 22, 2008 -> 09:13 AM) If Sen. Obama becomes President, Osma Bin Laudin will be dead within a month. Bush doesn't want to catch him. Then he won't have the boogie man to scare people into voting for McCain. President Obama will not only kill terrorists, he will slow down their recruitment. :notworthy The one month thing is a BIT extreme. But yes, within the first few years.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Mar 22, 2008 -> 07:50 AM) Long - term, I don't know if he's a starter. I see him more as a Varejao energy guy off the bench, who will still be extremely valuable mind you. I think the Bulls need to hope this guy falls to them in the draft. http://www.nbadraft.net/admincp/profiles/brooklopez.html The Bulls need a strong center. I am in agreement abotu this guy. But in the larger picture they NEED to draft a center.

QUOTE(vandy125 @ Mar 21, 2008 -> 11:01 PM) Booooo! Why do the good shows get canceled? because most Americans find meat heads like Jim Balushi funny.

NOOOOOOOOO!

QUOTE(The Critic @ Mar 21, 2008 -> 05:47 PM) It hasn't been as bad as advertised out here (SW burbs) yet. I am so sick of snow and cold already. Can't we be done with this s*** yet? At the good friday service at my church this evening, my pastor walked up to an attendee, stuck out his hand, and said "Merry Christmas". Funny moment.

Up to 6-8" of snow int he Chicago area on Good Friday? The world IS coming to an end.

Looks like the race speech has rebounded Obama. He is now only 2 points behind Clinton (within the margin of error) and climbing again. Gallup Daily: Clinton Now at 47% to Obama’s 45%

Update: http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/200.../21/794670.aspx Not AS bad as I thought it was. But kinda interesting he didnt say that Obama loves this country. Not this was said in front of a VFW hall. As if Hillary's ties to lobbiests and Bill tie to a uranium deal and this whole NAFTA schedule thing wouldnt be brought up?

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Mar 21, 2008 -> 02:51 PM) Unreal. I'm glad I never voted for that boob. BTW, where did you read/hear that? This should be a huge headline for the weekend news cycle. MSNBC I'll update the quote next time I hear it. i tried to recall word for word what was said, but i didnt catch it exactly.

Bill Clinton just said in NC that if the battle were between McCain and Hillary it would be "a battle between two people who love this country and not all this other stuff". OUCH! Bill just said Obama isn't patriotic.
