What's the update on the game?

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Mar 27, 2008 -> 12:40 PM) Did I recommend that to you a few months ago? I put it on here as a recommendation and someone told me they were putting it on their netflix queue. It is a good movie, it makes you think about what happens in some of the less fortunate parts of the world. I had wanted to see this since it came out a few years back but you might have reminded me to throw it in the queue.

Oliver Stone Casts Parents Of "W".

This story makes me angry. How does this happen???

Watched Tsotsi last night. Nice little flick about a thug in Johannesburg that discovers a baby in the back seat of the car he had stolen. Nice cinematography and an emotional story. Would recommend to anyone who doesn't mind subtitled films.

Are Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Elton John breaking U.S. laws by allowing the British pop singer, a foreign national, to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for Mrs. Clinton's presidential campaign by performing a concert on her behalf?

"When I first arrived in the Senate hall, I looked around and said 'wow, how did I manage to get here?' Then after spending about a year in the Senate, I thought to myself, 'wow, how did these other people manage to get here?'" Brilliant!

QUOTE(Athomeboy_2000 @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 09:27 PM) "Clean Campaign '08" Proposal Did you propose that?

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 06:19 PM) Too bad. He had the best debate line of any candidate in either party this cycle. Refresh my memory.

QUOTE(shaneomacfan @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 04:31 PM) Clinton Campaign Volunteer's Disgusting Comments This may be an isolated incident, but after this whole campaign, would you really put it past her? There's no way to trace these types of shenanigans. For all we know an Obama or McCain supporter could have done that to make Hillary look bad.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 04:20 PM) I think this and other rumors are hinting at the beginning of the end. The Dems in power want this thing over so they can concentrate on the general. On the one hand, since this thing went way deep into the primary schedule, this was a more democratic primary then there has been in quite a while. On the other hand, they fact that they have to kill it off semi-artificially is less than ideal. What this should really indicate is that the primary system needs an overhaul. No doubt. I'd like to get rid of superdelegates and make each state have the same set of rules (i.e., no caucuses, closed primaries). I linked an article not long ago for some suggested changes for the future. For the most part it made sense. Mostly centered around the order of the state primaries dependent upon previous general election results.

QUOTE(Athomeboy_2000 @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 04:06 PM) I head something last night about that too. Clinton wont go without a fight. Even though she is saying she'll need the supers, she do a 180 and say "they are trying to take the election from those who havent had their voice heard yet". It doesn't matter what she says if the supers start shifting to Obama over the next few days/weeks. What case will she truly have? If he were to gain a lead in superdelegates that would mean he'd have a lead in pledged delegates, popular vote, states won and now supers.

QUOTE(BearSox @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 02:47 PM) now, if the intentions are to make an unbiased film just presenting the life of Bush and such, I have no problem with such a film. However, if they are going to make it into a Bush is the devil, he sacrifices babies type of movie, then I do have a bit of a problem with that. I would consider your 2nd statement an unbiased version of the truth.

QUOTE(Athomeboy_2000 @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 01:33 PM) I know BigSqwert, just an update No problem. Still love your avatar. That reaction was priceless when the van smashed into the studio.

Did teacher really tell 10-year old Obama's Muslim?

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 10:33 AM) Well maybe when they start winning you can jump back on. Piss off. I guess I'm not as big of a fan since I didn't decorate my entire house with White Sox newspaper clippings and free giveaways from the game.

Well I guess the only criteria we should use to vote is who donated more money. Rezko and Hsu should run for office!

I can't remember the last time I was so disinterested in the White Sox. I have yet to watch or listen to a single inning of spring training.

Josh Marshall (TPM) on Clinton's Pittsburgh Tribune-Review interview yesterday:

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 07:10 AM) Ah yes, the Democrats standing for Democracy, except when it is their own party... If they are going to whine about the electoral college ever again, they need to do away with the superdelegates. Period. Agreed.
