QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jun 26, 2008 -> 04:34 PM) I can promise you that people will be tracking gun violence in DC for the next few years. I'd be curious to see the numbers. thing is, the pro-gun groups can easily point out that the areas of the country with the strictest gun laws also have the most gun violence. it seems to be more of a problem of street gangs and drug wars rather than guns being legal.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 25, 2008 -> 07:05 PM) Is there any reason to have GOP and Dem only threads anymore? Half of the posts are snark. BigSqwert, you probably have more posts in the GOP only thread than me. I was just trying to point out that the Democrats have groups that put out attack ads as well.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 25, 2008 -> 06:50 PM) Frankly, yes, I'm still pissed off over those Swiftboat ads. Mostly at the fact that the media did such a wonderful job of selling them when statement after statement in them was just obviously and blatantly false. The media just played the ads, they didn't say any of it was true. Oh well, hopefully baby Alex will be safe from the evil kidnapping John McCain. Kerry can come out and stab McCain in the back again too, "yes, John McCain steals little babies and sends them to Iraq. He must be stopped". Or maybe General Betrayus will chime in and defend John McSame. ah yes, good old politics.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 25, 2008 -> 04:33 PM) The "Douchebag of the Day" award goes to Dallas billionaire T. Boone Pickens. wow you guys are still all worked up over those swiftboat ads. oh, for a million dollars, you can get people to vouch for just about anything

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jun 25, 2008 -> 03:21 PM) The government might need to invest heavily in a new rail system. Current companies just dont havee the resources to do it. Having a high speed rail system in the US would be great. But you're right, it would probably be really expensive to build.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 24, 2008 -> 12:10 PM) Doh it's ok, everyone makes mistakes. Obama thought there was 57 states.

haha good old jay mariotti

what an idiot this guy is just asking to fired, or trying to get some publicity i guess

QUOTE (Reddy @ Jun 23, 2008 -> 12:51 PM) as an Edwards supporter I'm all for the fairness doctrine being reinstated. had that law still been in place... dude woulda rocked this s***. wrong

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Jun 23, 2008 -> 08:34 AM) People who complain about the Fairness Doctrine have no idea about how it actually works or rather worked. wrong

haha 40+ pitch inning the only good thing about this 3 game series is that it's almost over

here we go again

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 20, 2008 -> 09:05 PM) ...the fairness doctrine only is necessary in a 2003 like environment meh, the MSM on TV was still 90% democrat. So any fairness doctrine that was accurately applied would cost the Democrats 40% of their market share. They would have to take big cuts of time on ABC, CBS, NBC, and CNN. Wouldn't be worth it. But thing is, you would completely disagree with that assessment, and that is where this whole fairness doctrine falls apart. If we think supreme court nominations are big, just imagine the fight to see who gets to decide what the government run media gets to show. It would be a massive political war that would never end. The post of "media fairness person" would be a huge appointment (and a total bs appointment, I may add).

no excuses. sox just blew a bunch of chances and lost hopefully they'll come back tomorrow with a win

Feinstein is saying she is looking into bringing it back. But I hope you're right

I see the Dems are going for this 'fairness doctrine' again. so much for free speech.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 20, 2008 -> 05:44 PM) Well, in that case, I'll just leave it at that, because no amount of facts I can throw at you will convince you otherwise. ok. you're right, i'm not going to buy into the Obama spin on this (i wouldn't call his argument to be an honest one). i guess the like of Limbaugh were correct (and i hate to admit it). these Democrats are total frauds, can't really be trusted or be worked with on anything. the government is so hyper partisan now it's really a disgrace. promises mean nothing and there is no trust.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 20, 2008 -> 05:40 PM) Ok, so now that Moveon has disbanded their PAC, I'd actually be interested in what 527's they actually still have running solidly against McCain? Secondly, do you think McCain would stay in the public financing system if he could afford to hop out of it? He was totally willing to not only hop out of it but to go so far as to nearly openly abusing the system in the primary campaign. And third...the Republican Congress was the one that passed these rules. John McCain's name was on the most recent rendition of them, and he's maneuvered a few other bills through since then that have opened things up for him even more. Do you actually seriously believe that somehow the Dems duped McCain in to setting up the rules of the race, and that he's this innocent guy who is just at the mercy of these mean duplicitous democrats? No, he didn't abuse the system, he followed the rules like an idiot while Obama is blatantly not living up to the bargain. Yea, I think they expected to do this all along, they have absolutely no ethics.
