John Edwards - "Americans should 'sacrifice' SUVs for Env
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.

This is not good for Alex Rodriguez

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

John Edwards - "Americans should 'sacrifice' SUVs for Env
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

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

For Dems only.
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.

GOP Primaries/Candidates thread
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.

GOP Primaries/Candidates thread
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.

Discussion Thread - NUKE's war diary
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.

On the surface, and in general, I am in favor of not taxing investment income.

Senator Larry Craig convicted of lewd conduct in men's bathroom
QUOTE(Rex Kicka** @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 01:34 PM) That Hsu thing is weird. I don't even understand it. Sounds like the kinda person they should throw the book at though. Lots of Campaign Finance mishaps going on. Romney's Campaign Finance Chair got indicted this week too.Link. The Club for Growth got pinched for a 350K FEC fine, and 11 Public Officials in NJ were arrested for bribery. Busy week for political cops. Another reason I am beginning to think public financing is better.

John Edwards - "Americans should 'sacrifice' SUVs for Env
QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 12:36 PM) Hmm. Good point. Lets invade Mexico just to prove that we don't discriminate. Oh wait, they are already invading us! Your hyperbole is killing me. Seriously. I can't drink anything when I read your posts anymore, because they are making me laugh that hard. How far back do we have to go? It's a serious question. WWII? Are Christian countries just better? BTW SS, it was a post of yours months ago that pointed that out to me. I believe it was in a Rwanda thread. Funny that you would post that now.

For Dems only.
QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 02:27 PM) Also, some parts of the Patriot Act were struck down by a U.S. District Court judge yesterday. And oh yeah, the economy is now losing jobs. Really not a good week for BushCo. Honestly, what went wrong for Dubya? As I've stated many times I really like the guy personally. I would love for him to have done well. Standing on that mound of rubble with the bull horn and he had America lock stock and barrel. Had he duplicated that with the hurricane, he could have rode another couple years.

Happy 5th Anniversary to SOXTALK!
QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 02:26 PM) August 30, 2002 was the first date that posters were moved onto Soxtalk.com. It is amazing to think that this site went from 128 posters at Soxnet.net to approaching 4000 people, and over 1.5 million posts in that amount of time. You guys are the greatest, and this place is successful not because of the administrators or moderates like some sites think, but because of the people who post here. Thanks to everyone Just over half those posts are yours

Happy Birthday, Rex
QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 12:35 PM) Could you give us any reasons as to why you could go gay? (liking my eyes is not a good reason) Hmm, good question. I'll avoid the stale jokes like I could be a lesbian, and because it would piss off Sox4LifeinPA

DEM Primaries/Candidates thread
QUOTE(kapkomet @ Sep 7, 2007 -> 11:10 AM) Which is exactly why we don't need governmental health care, and other huge expenditures in the government's hands. That is a very good point.
