it reminds me of the Curb your Enthusiasm where the rabbi says that his son died on 9/11 because he died in a car crash the same day.

this is just such nonsense.

QUOTE (Drew @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 06:04 AM) They have also taken two games when officials have done whatever they could to help Philly out. When ESPN is calling out the lopsided calls in game on where Philly wasn't whistled for anything, it must be bad. And tonight—seriously, how do you miss Pronger's cross-check on Toews after the whistle when you are the referee and standing three feet from it? There is physical play and there is dirty play, and Philly is the dirtiest team I've seen in a while. But hey, two more wins. meh, st. louis.

Democrats have no morals.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 04:12 PM) I agree with that. People scream about funding of mass transit, where the users have to pay a portion of the costs, yet say nothing of the hundreds of billions spent every year on roads that they drive on without paying for it directly. I actually wonder if some of the southern illinois politicians who cry foul realize that people don't ride free.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 08:30 PM) And whichever side had the goal of finally getting international attention on Israel's year and a half long blockade of Gaza (i.e. the blockade runners) has fully achieved their goals. They knew exactly what they were doing. They baited Israel into responding, and Israel wasn't smart enough to not take the bait. Not only that, but they weren't smart enough to have any plan for how to respond to this type of provocation other than with the worst possible option; killing a lot of people who didn't have guns. This is pretty much the bottom line.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 01:49 PM) Just as with the CTA, this problem is not JUST the loss of some marginal money to corruption, nor is it JUST the loss of some marginal money to inefficiencies, nor is it JUST the fact that there is more work to be done than money to pay for it. Its all the above. Anyone who thinks that throwing more money at it will solve all the problems, or who thinks that the marginal amount of waste or corruption is making it impossible, is just being stubborn to defend one particular agenda. The thing that drives me crazy about the CTA always having to fight for more funding is the argument you hear about "why should I have to pay for their service" as if we are riding for free, and as if I'm not paying for their roads and highways. Drives me batty.

well, I mean, the soldiers were getting the s*** kicked out of them...which...to my keystone cops point...why the hell did they think that would work? 1 by 1 entry when they were grossly out numbered... DUDES WERE GETTING DISARMED BY UNTRAINED CIVILIANS. I feel like this elite squad wasn't half as hardcore as even israeli police.

i'm just so over these people.

any bill kristol publications i will not believe for a second. I wouldn't be shocked, but on the other hand...i mean...these protestors were unarmed...if they had anything of value why not use them? Isreal just played right in their arms. They are doing everything possible to be the dumbest f***ing hawks ever right now.

The more reports I read, this just appeared to be the keystone cops going into an angry mob and then all hell breaks loose. Not sure why that unit decided to go in. Not sure whether the ship was being warned to turn around. Why they did it before the ship reached the trade barrier zone. And why they thought slow entry off of rope ladders from a helicopter into hundreds of really really really extremely pro-palestinian mobs one at a time with paintball guns was a good idea. It'd be funny, if, you know, people didn't die, and the ship wasn't trying to bring relief to people starving and forced to live in poverty, and the situation wasn't so impossible to solve.

I thought cops wouldn't make mistakes like this. Huh. Well, we should make laws giving them more power.

Not if you consider the public option to be more than a word, and actually mean what it represents, and compare that to the health care bill, which does not contain the program that the public option is, in fact it is just a series of subsidies and laws regulating the insurance agency. but you are such a victim kap.

You are so smart kap!

I'm not against gays, I'm just worried this will lead to an increase in soldier rape! /family research coincil.

right kap. Please continue your wonderful insight.

who was calling you crazy for saying that greece would hurt the EZ?

irony, eh

You laughing your ass off, oh man. That would be epic.
