Falwell's mom, the subject as well, is not a public figure. She was accused of incest in Flynt's parody. Any defense for her? All the kids had to do was place a picture of Michael Jackson in the parody and all's well?

I do not see it as a parody, nor did I find the Flynt/Falwell as a parody. I thought Flynt stepped over the line, same as these kids. And because of that, LCR would like my picture so he can do a parody of me.

QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Dec 22, 2007 -> 10:57 PM) Talk about self righteousness. Look in the goddamn mirror (or perhaps at your previous post) But then, keep telling us how much better you are than others here. Not better, just consistent.

QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Dec 22, 2007 -> 08:39 PM) Ok, Tex. Give me a photo. Let me set up a site with your picture and it says you have inappropriate actions with children. Then, let's see how it affects your Boy Scout career. I am going by the legal standpoint -- parody does not exist when a reasonable person believes the false statements to be accurate and reasonable. While I applaud the ACLU taking the case, the parody argument, legally, doesn't hold water -- and the kids are damn lucky that they aren't getting hit with a defamation of character lawsuit. And nice job being a mod and personally attacking posters -- so much that you put words into my mouth to make the straw man that you have so much fun knocking down. How pathetic. You called me out in your original post. You are such a hypocrite when it comes to teachers. If you bothered to notice, I said what the kids did was wrong and should be punished. But keep ignoring that statement. What they posted was wrong, just like Flynt. You talk about freedom of speech, civil disobedience, but when it comes to teachers WHOA!!!! Stay away, they are so maligned, so much stress. B.S. my girlfriend has been a teacher for twenty years and my best friend for almost thirty. I show them your posts and they laugh at your naivetés and self righteous b.s.

Funny how a religious leader, something you have always mocked, gets torched and that's ok. But whatever. I feel better being consistent. I think what the kids did was wrong and should be punished. Someday you may see your hypocrisy and defend those you do not agree with. Someday you may hold everyone to the same standard. But I doubt it. The world according to LCR Teachers are not to be challenged or any outside oversight Teachers are not to be the subject of parody LCR is a teacher. LCR dishes it out but can't take it. Heil Teachers

LCR What a hypocrite. I guess freedom of speech stops when it involves teachers. You supported Larry Flynt slandering Jerry Falwell that reached hundreds of thousands of people, but something that exactly 7 people had access to is a problem?! Seriously You are cracking me up.

I just figured out I am living an album, Rumours. Amazing when a friend comes up with the perfect gifts and you spend a day wrapped in that feeling and emotion.

Wow, great question. McCain. War stories. The past 8 years, especially after getting screwed in 2000.

Ah, the liquoe paradox. The greater the tab, the greater the morning headache.

Congratulations!!

QUOTE(ptatc @ Dec 20, 2007 -> 08:43 PM) How could you fairly adjust stirkeouts and walks which have absolutely nothing to do with the effects of the drugs? I can see a case for many of the categories of hits and SBs but not when the hitter doesn't make contact with the ball. Perhaps then the adjustment is zero on that stuff, bigger on other stats. Bottom line they enhanced performance and it seems unfair to straight up compare the two numbers. And unlike comparing era's, you had players at the same time playing under different circumstances. They knew it was wrong, notice no one came out and said, hey I'm playing better because of these drugs. So people can split hairs all day long but no player thought that doing the drugs was ok. They hid it all along. YAS, I meant in a few cases baseball condoned the drug use, Sosa and Mark come #1 to mind. So I think it is a little unfair, but deserved. It wasn't like the anyone was really after the players to stop, including other players.

Interesting article. Crazy ass argument that will not work, but hey, I love crazy ass people.

I am wondering if they are leaving the US, establishing a new country inside US soil, or what.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Dec 20, 2007 -> 01:47 PM) That elephant will be standing on the dias as they make their acceptance speeches. Deserved but slightly unfair, if that makes sense.

QUOTE(G&T @ Dec 20, 2007 -> 01:41 PM) That's that the only Leinys I can drink, but no, it is not true to any style of beer. I have a close friend who will love it.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Dec 20, 2007 -> 01:35 PM) I agree on one point. Based on the way things stand today, Bonds and Clemens will get in eventually. And I do not have a problem with that, but I would like some mention of them playing in the "steroid era".

After I tried it a second time, I liked it. Once I decided it wasn't beer.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Dec 20, 2007 -> 08:01 AM) I can kind of relate to what Schilling is saying here. I want Giambi to give Frank his MVP award.

I wondered why there were so many postings about solicitation-friendly bathroom stalls -- until I realized I was on LarryCraigslist. (Brad Simanek) http://www.slightlyamusing.com

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Dec 20, 2007 -> 01:03 AM) Schilling is that he actually has the balls to call out Clemens. Shilling doesn't have to step into the batter's box against Clemens.

I love stuff like this, both guys know it's b.s. but it's fun copy. Almost like WWF

QUOTE(ptatc @ Dec 19, 2007 -> 09:47 PM) Youv'e got to remember the majority of baseball who use these performance enhancing drugs are using it to maintain performance over the long season. The reason that bonds hits the home runs isn't necessarily that he has increased strength and the ball goes further but that he can maintain the strength over the season and he can hit them more consistently over time. So to expect more strikeouts would be a function of always trying to swing for the fences not necessarily from the drugs. Therefore attempting to "adjust" stats would not be accurate. This concept is why many pitchers have used it. It allows them to stay strong over the season and not have a let down. Especially relief pitchers who can come in more often and pitch at their highest level. And that is why it will be necessary to adjust their stats, at least in the mind of the voters, when electing these guys. They are performance enhancing, they would not have taken them just for the shrunken testicles and pimples.

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Dec 19, 2007 -> 08:38 PM) Texsox, I think what you said is absolutely fair. If a guy was borderline, then maybe steroid use is what puts them in the no column. But I dont think that clear HOF players should be kept out. clear? I love the subtle humor I think some people will place that border pretty far up the line.
