Guillen responds to McCarthy's comments

IMO, they might have been in the playoffs last year without Ozzie so maybe he should shut his hole on that score. -
Just because it happened doesn't mean its appropriate. If your only way to deal with rambunctious kids as a substitute teacher is using duct tape to gag or tie down kids to their chair, you ought to find another career.

The Al Gore discussion, split from GOP/DEM
Rex Kickass replied to mr_genius's topic in The Filibuster
Then why do they keep posting? The last serious post by a lib in this thread was two pages ago. The rest were all jokes about Ted Nugent and the difference between rugs and carpets. -

There's an inappropriate Ted Nugent joke to be made here about the difference between carpets and rugs but I'm not gonna make it. -

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 27, 2007 -> 02:41 PM) Yeah, there is another one like that called sidestep.com, also handy at times. Sidestep is most useful for flight comparisons. Between sidestep, kayak and southwest airlines, you can search basically every flight combination for any domestic flight and many international options. Hotels, I don't think they're gonna do that great for you. International hotels or cruises, call me .

QUOTE(Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 27, 2007 -> 12:48 PM) If you preach that violence is bad and then go out and beat the crap out of someone, your message obviously is still good but your credibility in giving that message should take a hit. Gore is a hypocrite. That doesn't mean his mission is a joke or that his message isn't important. But his credibility should be questioned when he doesn't practice what he preaches (even if he does take SOME steps that others don't). And he might not even be that big of a hypocrite. But I find it laughable there are hard-core environmentalists here who gloss over the fact that this guys house uses more energy in a month than the average Americans home does in a year. On top of the caravan of cars he travels with, the private jet, the vacation homes, etc…. Here's a dumb question. If he's paying to use renewable resources to power his house, does that make him less of a hypocrite? -

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Feb 27, 2007 -> 11:47 AM) That's exactly what I mean! Why can't I question Al Gore? Why is he all of the sudden some kind of untouchable demi-god??? Why do I have to attend his lecure circuit and pay to see his movie to have some sort of crediblity to ask some questions???? Is reading his speeches on line enough? Is see the experpts of his speeches on CNBC enough? Is watching his appearences on the TV news magazines enough? Is hearing eight years of his speeches as VP enough? Come to think of it why is my credibility on trial, when the whole point back at the beginning was that I wasn't supposed to be questioning Gore's credibility in the first place?!?!?!? That kind of circular logic is EXACTLY what I am talking about when I say it feels like a cult when you question anything to do with the enviornment. You wanna question Al Gore? Fine. Using his electric bill to do it is like saying Dick Cheney is a hypocrite for supporting smaller government initiatives when he ran a company that was profitable solely based on the government contracts it was awarded. -

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Feb 27, 2007 -> 10:53 AM) You see, though, no where in here do you see what *I* am doing to try to help the environment, yet, to Al Gore and the liberals, it's "not enough" because I drive an SUV. I recycle (my recycle bin is chuck full every single week), I use those new little lights as my old ones burn out, I take care of my vehicles to make sure they are as efficient as possible. I don't take private jets everywhere, I jump on the big bus in the sky when I need to get somewhere. Is it enough? I'm not judging anyone else, like Al Gore is by telling us "An Inconveinient Truth". That's great that you're doing things to reduce your carbon footprint. Again, exactly when did Al Gore tell you everything you're doing is wrong again? -

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Feb 27, 2007 -> 10:29 AM) I know that this is a little "disjointed" but in some areas, this was a good discussion. Except Tex and his "F the GOP" ... Just kidding. Anyway, where I get a little ruffled is when I have these people telling me everything I do is "bad" for the environment, and yet, they do the same things and even on a much larger scale. What I choose to do is different then me standing up on stages all over the world telling people what they shouldn't be doing. Actually, when has Al Gore said "everything you do in your life is bad for the environment" Kap? I'm assuming that your hobbies don't include emptying cans of aerosol hair spray directly up into the air and cutting down rainforest "for fun," he isn't. I'd wager that you haven't seen Al Gore's movie either and neither have most people here are so quick to cut down the film too. And another thing that really saddens me about this Kap, is how quick you are to jump on this bandwagon because this is politics of the worst kind, the sleaziest kind. He isn't running for anything for anymore - he's just being an advocate of a message that deserves repeating... and because his message involves some form of self sacrifice, stupid political hacks who are funded by companies like ExxonMobil are doing anything they can to discredit the message by attacking a messenger. When this stuff happens in a campaign, you're so quick to jump on the candidate launching the attack as a sleazy s***bag who doesn't deserve a single vote but when it happens about an issue that might not be that important to you - you're on it like a horsefly on a cow patty. The last time I checked Al Gore's monthly electric bill had very little to do with global climate change. Just because he isn't powering his toaster with a stationary bike like Ed Begley, Jr does, doesn't mean his message isn't worth listening to. -

I guess the question in my mind is who gives a damn what the man does in his own house? Could he be more energy efficient? Probably, but that doesn't mean that his message is wrong. -

Central Michigan University is located in Mt Pleasant, adjacent to a reservation for Chippewa Indians. I don't believe that they have a mascot. -
QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 23, 2007 -> 03:00 PM) Yeah, that's comparable. 3 PRIVATE CONTRACTORS, were "outed", in the sense that it was revealed they live within a 900 square mile around the airfield mentioned, and that they may or may not enjoy trains or have beards. No name or any other ID. This sort of thing doesn't make the MSM because its a nothing event. Just some columnist trying to say "hey, they did it too", and doing pretty poorly at it. Well to be fair, nobody drives Fords anymore.

Given the hype surrounding it, its not a surprise. Premiere numbers are only important to watch if it bombs. It's how it will do in four weeks that matters.
