QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 14, 2011 -> 10:03 AM) So, just curious... what do all you GOP'ers think of Jon Huntsman? unelectable

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 15, 2011 -> 08:20 AM) Obama is willing to go to $4T, if the GOP is willing to look at ending the Bush tax cuts for the top bracket. I would be in favor of that.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 17, 2011 -> 02:30 PM) Newscorp appears to have broken into Jude Law's phone while he was on American soil, putting it in violation of U.S. law. wtf?

Gentlemen, if the GOP signs a deal with Obama on the debt ceiling for anything less than 2.4 trillion in cuts (which is not enough, by the way) we need to vote them out. tea party 2012

haha this thread is still going?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jul 13, 2011 -> 03:55 PM) I don't know if anyone here actually supports Obama. good point

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 13, 2011 -> 04:20 PM) saying "shut your f***ing kid up" is never an appropriate response. that's just not true. sometimes it is the perfect response.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Jul 10, 2011 -> 02:19 PM) And whats really REALLY awesome, is say there is a huge downturn in the housing market (ahem), and your house would actually sell for less than you paid for it...they won't be so quick to "reassess" you downward and lower your tax payment, in IL, that can take YEARS...if ever. I recently bought some property in Chicago for a goodprice. The tax assessment is nearly double what I paid for it. I am hoping to get the tax rate on it lowered, I think I have a good case; paid price, bank assessment, recent sale prices of similar buildings in the area, ect. But I'm sure they will be dicks about me paying a tax rate of the ACTUAL VALUE of the house, not some bulls*** bubble price. I might get a lawyer to handle it.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 05:22 PM) Immature by Beckham but it's no big deal. Non-issue. ^^^

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 8, 2011 -> 02:50 PM) The interesting part was that the private sector number wasn't that bad. that seemed s***ty as well. not even close to the 150,000 to cover the new job market entrants let alone bring unemployment numbers down. I wouldn't be surprised to see a net loss of jobs in a month or so. unless i am missing something.

I think we can all agree that I am probably the most patriotic poster here.

the whole accusation seemed fake from the start.

As I predicted, Obama's stimulus spending was a total failure. http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/obama-...job_576014.html

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 08:40 PM) There is a valid reason for it, archaic or not, it's another check/balance in the system. agreed

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 21, 2011 -> 03:56 PM) I bought a home in 2007. ouch

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 24, 2011 -> 07:33 PM) I'm a CPA (well, almost officially, pending paperwork, haha) mothaf***a!!!!!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 23, 2011 -> 06:35 PM) Those will do a great job of turning out the vote in the August 2011 presidential race. good luck winning with 10% unemployment in 2012. Obama will need it.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 20, 2011 -> 08:47 PM) I'm going to bundle Juan pierres performance and sell it off as a grade AAA investment then take out credit default insurance to bet against it. The goveremt will then step in to cover my losses on Pierre and I'll come out a zillionaire. you would have just made some quick cash. ground out to end the game.

very shallow center field

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 20, 2011 -> 08:21 PM) Rios didn't appear to be busting it down the line. agreed. that was a bulls*** effort

QUOTE (Real @ Jun 20, 2011 -> 05:49 PM) I'll keep this brief as there isn't a whole lot to say. I texted in to the postgame last night after Rongey kept telling a caller that Pierre plays everyday because the Sox are trying to get some sort of return (in terms of offense, I guess) I heard this and immediately had a WTF moment I was listening to that. Rongey was being a jackass.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 20, 2011 -> 04:27 PM) http://maddowblog.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011...ter-double-fake Wow. Just wow. wait, there was a 0-97 budget vote? or is it all fake? edit: huh i guess there was. i didn't know about that

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 18, 2011 -> 08:28 PM) And every President since then has been more in favor of "free trade" than his predecessor. very true
