Apparent shoebombing actually just douchebag Diplo
QUOTE (G&T @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 06:19 PM) Diplomatic immunity doesn't work that way. The diplomat has to be acting within the scope of his duties or in carrying out his official duties. He broke a federal law by smoking on an airplane and making whatever comments he made, which had nothing to do with his job. He probably won't be imprisoned, but he will likely be kicked out of the country. if they are allowed to park wherever the hell they want and it be "carrying out their duties" then how is him smoking while traveling to perform his duties not "carrying out his duties"

yes, but there's obviously a lot more space and s***tier views at a festival, so prices should be lower.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 02:58 PM) St. Louis is getting in on the mini-music festival thing this year with Lou Fest in Forest Park. $38/day or $64 for both days. Lineup includes Titus Andronicus, Built to Spill, Jeff Tweedy, She & Him. Not too bad for the price. Personally, I think that is a lot for the lineup. For reference, the first intonation/pitchfork 5 years ago with a much deeper lineup and similar headliners was 20 for 2 days 12 for 1. There are free festivals that have lineups close to that. If they want to have it be a big deal to draw people from out of town, they need it to be either much cheaper or get a much better lineup.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 12:44 PM) Pawlenty certainly is. I'm just not sure anyone noticed. I think everyone notices. He's tacking hard right. You know, i do have hope though. McCain won because very few republican primaries are closed to republicans. McCain brought in all the independents.

QUOTE (DukeNukeEm @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 08:00 AM) The focus of my argument is that nobody wants to actually engage the United States in pitched conflict because we'd murder them. These massive programs that everyone calls wasteful keep a relative amount of peace going. And as I've said over and over, the spending differential between the US and the next biggest spenders is HUGE. And you are saying we can't cut anything still. Because if we cut one program they know they are only 3/4 of a trillion dollars away!

Apparent shoebombing actually just douchebag Diplo
Yep, what was originally reported and thought was a shoe bombing was actually just the Qatar diplomat being a douchebag and smoking in the bathroom. And when asked by air marshals, he joked that he was lighting his shoe on fire. Funny, right? You know what makes it less funny...douchebag is a diplomat, and therefore has diplomatic immunity. http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/...2.php?ref=fpblg http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/news/2010...oke.php?ref=fpa

The Democrat Thread
QUOTE (KipWellsFan @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 04:54 AM) Who said Huckabee and Romney are her main competitors? Campaigns matter. And personally I think someone like Haley Barbour or others could chew her up and spit her out. But like you you say, we'll see. you are right of course, but we'll see what happens. I just don't see many others in campaign mode, but in the next year we'll see for sure.

The Republican Thread
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 03:32 AM) Am I the only one who remember all of the "Dissent is Patriotic" bumperstickers from the previous eight years? What happened to all of that? It is totally accepted here when entire groups of the GOP are mocked. It is completely OK when jokes are made about how stupid people are in the Republican party. Yet if anything remotely the other way happens, panties get wadded about as quick as Scott Linebrink entering a game. You mean like the past two pages of this thread? Look in a mirror for Christ's sake. When I've gone off, I took some time off. I've been treated very fairly, including the time when I called out NSS for trying to act like an inbetween moral arbiter in the 2008 election and taking sides with you. They are fair. They are extremely lenient. One of the things that has pissed me off, and I don't even like him as a poster, but one of the easy things of this forum is anyone can make fun of AHB and it's fine. People can clearly insult him, and no big deal. Imagine if that was kap.

The Republican Thread
Alright. seriously. What the f*** are you guys complaining about. You want the GOP thread to have more posts? Post more. I'm not going to apologize for posting a lot in the dem thread with the posters i like. What are the mods supposed to do? Delete posts in the dem thread? You all seem to equate more posts in the dem thread with more hate...it's not. And there are quite a bit of posts in there with random posts form righters here that are just "hey nancy pelosi sucks! but i hate Bush too, so i'm fine!". We read a lot of blogs. We post them. THey are left leaning blogs. We post them in the dem thread. That's the point. It's the point of the dem thread. To have dem things in it. And not clog up the forum. You want to know the difference? When you guys talk about liberals and dems, we don't take it personally, because there is a large part of it we don't identify with. When we identify the f***in crazy sending nooses to congressman, Kap goes off about OOOHH SO I AM A RACIST RIIIIGHT WELL NONE OF THIS HAS EVER HAPPENED blah blah blah.

Technology catch-all thread
it's not that we insist apples can't get viruses, it's that we don't, and it's nice. I don't give a f*** if it's because people don't care since less people use them, it's still brilliant to have had a laptop for 5 years with absolutely zero problems when my friends with dells have gone through 2 or 3.

April 7th Game Thread vs Cleveland
well...that was painful. Thornton is a god. but the indians had a good game plan vs. peavy - take a lot of pitches. The dude just cannot do anything unless he's thrown 8 pitches per at bat. And then they looked low and hey. But yeah, when our 2-3-4 aren't doing anything, we're f***ed.
