QUOTE(kapkomet @ Sep 9, 2007 -> 08:08 AM) That's true to a certain extent. part one or two? Or both?

Amazing. I wish I had the time to check another source or two. That seems so one sided it almost doesn't seem accurate.

This does not address the biggest problem facing us. We can find enough immigrants we like to be Doctors, software engineers, and similar, but we just can not find enough acceptable laborers. We should slash this funding and force Americans to accept these jobs Seriously, now comes another round of tuition hikes which will wipe out the increase as far as the students wallets. They will still need the same debt. This will help schools way more than it helps students. We accept debt in this society.

QUOTE(knightni @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 06:43 PM) Someone take this idea and run with it. New restaurant theme: Cougars Similar to Hooters but instead of teeny-boppers, hot MILFs aged 35-45 are the waitresses. Nice Hey Jim, should we get a booth or a table?

This is not an expense, it is an investment. And if all goes well we'll have the best educated manual laborers - citizens in history

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Sep 8, 2007 -> 10:39 AM) I think it's safe to say that Shaq's ex-wife is going to be useless to every other guy on Earth. I'm talking pencil and hallway type stuff here. Are you sayin' the milkman couldn't deliver . . .

And looking at mom, the apple didn't fall far from the tree.

Her parents must be so proud.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 11:36 PM) Hey, I'm not the one saying s*** that used to be what people would roll in their graves over. JFK and people of his time have to be rolling in their graves seeing the Democrat party of today OPENLY embrace defeat in a time of war ALL for political power. It's not for debate, it's not for "the good of the country", it's for POWER. Let me tell you something, since you're too young to get it: when people in MY government openly and brazenly work against people who I know personally that are in harms way by statements like "OH LOOK, WE'LL GAIN SEATS IN 2008 IF IT KEEPS GOING [LIKE THIS]" - that's a mighty f*** YOU. I have NO respect for representatives of MY government who in my opinion border on treason by agreeing with talking points of Osama Bin Ladin. To you, it's just political discourse. To me, it starts becoming personal when I see stuff like this. Then people like you wonder why I get so cynical and "sarcastic" when it comes to the Democrat party. Today's Bin Ladin tape pretty much explains why - especially when I see Schumky Schumer and Harry Reid RUN for the cameras to try and grow a backbone, all for political power. At that point, they are not worthy of political discourse, as you put it. But, you'll never understand, because you believe what you believe, and that's okay, though. Good for you. Talk about hyperbole Bin Laden thinks we should lower taxes. You treasonous bastard for agreeing with him.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 06:59 PM) So we're living in the crusades again? Please. We're not killing people because of their culture. Who said that? There is always more than one factor, just look at Iraq. It was the WMD we *knew* where there, it was their strict religious adherences (women's rights) to end torture, etc. We've had to stop communism, etc. But they always seem to be a different culture. BTW, Bush seems to think we are living in a time of religious wars.

QUOTE(frankie5angels @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 04:09 PM) Which is sad because it is the greatest game ever invented. *cough* golf *cough*

Which makes perfect sense. Old people move to Tucson, and an old crotch doc with shaky hands might just be the ticket . . .

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 05:51 PM) i was thinking the same thing and decided it would have been hilarious Going to hell but I thought the same thing.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 05:54 PM) let me ask you this, when was the last genocide in a Christian country? It's been a very long time. So we've only had problems with non-Christian countries. So perhaps my quote that Kap objected to is accurate after all You made a statement in that thread that I thought was great. If those were white people in Rwanda we'd be there. That stuck with me, as has many of your posts. That, plus what seems like an easy fact that the GOP is generally war hawks and the Dems as doves, makes my statement valid. Maybe I should replace embrace with accept? Would that work for y'all?

Looks fine to me. Duh

I hope the surgery and rehab work out for him. Talk about an up and down career.

Maybe that is the past that surprises me, he has gotten worse. Perhaps it's a family trait. His dad just didn't run like someone who wanted the job.

Let's give all the current taxpayers (i.e. voters) tax cuts and make the millions of new workers pay for them when we kick out the illegals . . . FREE MONEY WHOO WHOO I'll be quiet now. Balanced budgets are so old fashioned.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 03:18 PM) Are you ready to go into the implications of taxcuts again? I think Tex has been busy enough in the other threads, he might have to give up sleep I should be clearer. I don't mind cuts, but there has to be cuts in spending. Balance a smaller budget and I would be happy.

QUOTE(NUKE @ Sep 4, 2007 -> 01:13 PM) Honestly, I don't know why they replaced us in our old sector. We had that place pretty well locked down in the time we were there and then these chumps come in and now everythings all messed up. Kind of annoying if you ask me. That was a common complaint in Viet Nam. That and seemingly trying to hold territory at all cost, then walking away without a fight, days or weeks later.

I believe he was capable of handling the job. I liked his early cabinet choices, his faith based initiatives, and a few other things.
