Well, that's because people in Philly are just generally nasty anyway, so they're used to it.

No but it was smart of Obama to say in public that he won twice as many states as she has. People are quick to forget that.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 10, 2008 -> 03:42 PM) Ehhh that's not even a good comparison. The ugly girl at the bar doesn't cost money, plus isn't nearly as likely to have any sort of STD's. Drinks aren't free, ya know.

QUOTE(Soxy @ Mar 10, 2008 -> 03:38 PM) Is he actually resigning? There are plenty of reports that say he will shortly. Partially because he'll most likely be indicted for it.

QUOTE(Soxy @ Mar 10, 2008 -> 03:38 PM) Is he actually resigning? I really don't understand how he could be this much of a dumb ass. I mean, seriously, wtf are you thinking? I hope that hooker was mind-blowing, because you just ruined your life idiot. I believe she was blowing something else actually.

There's a bump, but Clinton has been campaigning in MS. However, she's gotten nasty and that won't fly well everywhere.

The Lt. Governor, David Paterson, of Harlem would be Spitzer's replacement. Trivia about Paterson: he's blind.

The weather is no help. But massive back spasms coupled with a cold and a broken coccyx, not a lot of wanting to work out the calories.

QUOTE(Soxy @ Mar 10, 2008 -> 03:26 PM) Wait a second homeslice, where in NY are you moving? Brooklyn. And yes, this is horrible. There's nothing I hate more than someone who uses the services of something he tries to gain political points for by railing against it. Have the balls to advocate legalizing prostitution if you're gonna pay for sex. Don't be an attention hog to bust prostitution rings instead. Probably didn't wanna give him the Attorney General discount.

Spitzer's kind of been a big mess in office. Do they have to have a special election in NY State? Why is it that right before I move to a state, a Governor resigns due to a sex scandal?

I have been eating such crap lately, that I'm surprised if I didn't pack 3 or 4 pounds on when I next deign to weigh myself. At least I think I'm healed enough to start working out again.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Mar 10, 2008 -> 02:31 PM) Linkity. He has 2 choices. Either he has to become a Republican Congressman or his political career is over. It didn't hurt Barney Frank much.

Tamil Tigers too.

Although I think Islamic terror is a significant part of the total, I think that a lot of the terror attacks we see are not necessarily religiously motivated, but ethnically motivated. Plus the FARC in Colombia.

Well, Clinton won OH and RI, Obama won VT, WY and they basically split TX down the middle. Total net delegate gain for Clinton for the week? 4 delegates. One delegate is left to be allocated from WY and it will most likely reflect the caucus voting (which means it most likely goes to Obama.) Three more Super Delegates endorsed Obama last week. None endorsed Hillary. Foster winning the Special Election makes him a Super Delegate at the Convention, thanks to Obama's help - Foster won. Foster is returning the favor with a vote for Obama at the Convention. So despite a 12 point loss in Ohio, Obama walks away from his very bad week with one more delegate than Clinton got.

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Mar 10, 2008 -> 12:56 AM) I think that should be singular, not plural. UNless you are suggesting he was trained at some secret Al-Jesus traingin camp in the Bible belt or something. Did he act alone? Yes. Did he receive aid and comfort from Christian Identity folks in North and South Carolina while in hiding, who knew exactly what he did there and at other abortion clinics and gay bars? Yes. So I think the plural works fine. Oh and Catholic is a Christian faith, knightni. He identified himself as part of the Christian Identity movement before, now he's identifies as a Catholic. There was no subtext there.

Used to be all about the Christian Identity thing. Now he's a self-described Catholic.

The last terrorist attack on the Olympics involved Christian Extremists, no?

NRCC spent nearly 30% of its cash on hand to save that seat.

Ummm, Post 37. You never answered my question on how you'd enforce it.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 7, 2008 -> 08:44 AM) So... everyone in Nebraska will suddenly grow candy stripes? Sort of. Due to the way that Nebraska allocates electoral votes, Obama and McCain would split the votes.

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Mar 7, 2008 -> 07:08 AM) Yes. Yes, it was made THRU the womens center, at the request of six Muslim women, for religious beliefs. The Women's Center had nothing to do with it until the Muslim women complained. They made the religion issue front and center when they complained due to religious reasons. So fine, since your issue with this has nothing to do with the actual accommodation and has more to do with the religion that these people are - I think we're done arguing here. At least until you post your next thread about Americans who happen to be muslim exercising their religious freedom in a country that guarantees it. I'm done.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Mar 6, 2008 -> 11:39 PM) No, we aren't arguing that "because I pay I should be able to do what I want." We're talking about being able to take advantage of the school's functions. The schools are respsonsible for setting regulations as well and the paying students should follow them as it applies to all. I don't see any problem with going to a professor's lecture if you're not registered for the class. I saw people drag their gf or bf to their class all the time. The school says the gym is open to students from 6AM-12AM (just a guess as that what mine was.) All students have access to that, no problem. The school then decides because of a complaint from a select minority the gym will remain open from 6AM-12AM but only a select few can work out from 7-9PM. That's BS. As a policy, the school sets up checkout times for conference rooms so unless you have properly checked out the room, you do not belong there. That applies to ALL the students. Equal treatment, how about that? That's great, so what you're saying is that there should be no restrictions when things are open. But the Athletic Facilities department at Harvard already makes exceptions to that at various points for other things. For example, other facilities have open hours that are restricted to a certain skill level. There's no extra charge to use the space if you qualify either. And yet there's no outrage. However, some women who feel uncomfortable with the current environment given ask for an accomodation that is granted on a strictly limited basis and there's a ton of outrage. Why the outrage? Not because the accomodation, not because they're women but because these women happen to be muslim. For all the talk about media bias in this forum, you sure neglect to note the fact that because you can't swing a cat in a story about changing the gym hours without a religious reference. The request was made through the Harvard Women's Center. Not the Harvard Islamist Women's Center. The real story here is that a few loudmouthed college students are crybabies because they have to walk 10 minutes further because the gym they probably never worked out at had a policy change. They attack it on principle, but that principle isn't about religious equality. It's about their privileged lives having to deal with accomodating someone else's needs other than their own. The fact that these women are muslim only help the whiner's cause, because as we see in this forum on a regular basis, there are plenty of people who will take any mildly negative story regarding anyone muslim and equating to screaming flagrant injustice, even if the whole matter just involves a few mildly inconvenienced students because of an experimental semester-long policy intended to gauge the usefulness of having women-only athletic facilities on campus.

You know I think my favorite part of the Prince is when Machiavelli advises that you can take someone's son or daughter for cannon fodder and the family will forgive and support you. But if you f*** with their money, look out.
