DeLay has a huge target on his back after the mid decade redistricting strategy he pushed through. I feel bad for the big guy. However, I don't think the press will be able to bring down a tower of a Texan. I'll bet they are just making this stuff up.

Cesar Chavez is one of the greatest men to walk this or any planet. Not much education, never owned a house or made more than $4,000 in one year, but sweated blood to found the United Farm Workers. A great America hero. My town is filled with hundreds, no thousands, of citizens whose families started as migrant farmworkers and more than likely were here illegally. Most farm picking jobs are seasonal. How many people want to constantly move from town to town, staying a month or two, then moving on? When the window of opportunity for picking these crops are here, the farmers need lots and lots of workers. It's a hard life, back breaking, and the workers are treated like crap, even by the best of employers. Crime? With the exception of being here illegally, this group is the last among us to commit crimes. They don't want to be deported and lose what will amount to their annual income. Report a crime? No way. So they fall prey to farmers that don't make that last payroll. Paying $$$ for shelter that isn't fit for livestock. I know I couldn't hack the migrant workers life for a day, and they know they are doomed to a lifetime. Some of the most amazing people I have met in my life were illegals at one time in their lives. They have raised their kids with a work ethic second to none. I will gladly move over and give them a seat at the bounty that is America's harvest.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 10, 2005 -> 01:41 PM) Too bad the media will never apoligize to Hale for assuming that he had this done. The guy might be a scumbag, but they had him all over the news for this, and he looks to have had zero connection to it. Media, and the FBI, and the police, the Judge, her friends, and everyone else involved.

I remember in college the trainer telling us to stretch after the run. I thought he was crazy. After 2 weeks, I was sold on the idea. Warm up, work out, cool down, stretch. It becomes a habit.

Sorry, I can't diagnose the injury, but can offer some tips on the stretching. 1. Warm up gradually by walking, to a slow jog, then running. 2. Stretch before, during, and after. The after can be the most critical. This is presumably when you are the most limber. Stretching then will actually help to increase your overall flexibility by going beyond your usual range. 3. When feeling sore or tired, prop your feet, take a rest, and live to run another day.

I believe this is caused by a rush to judgement.

I really believe it is more a marketing gimmick. Knowing that the hardcore Bushies would not be your market and your market would cheer. Think of a bar outside Cominsky with a No Cub Fans sign up. Are they stupid for turning away more than half the baseball fans in Chicago? Or acting like their best customers? I disagree with the business strategy on several points. Number one, taking people into the wilderness and teaching them that Leave No Trace camping and other use in the wilderness, can be comfortable, and ultimately more rewarding, and helps everyone. Not teaching, or at least attempting to teach those that oppose you or who are indifferent, hurts the cause in the long run. Number 2, it does paint the "environmental wackos" out there even further. As a moderate Democrat, I'm embarrassed by some of this stuff. Up until the day of the election, I was very much undecided. One of my biggest dislikes of Bush was the environment.

I was thnking he may want to go back in time to when that haircut looked cool Mr. Peabody, set the wayback machine to, to, to, never!

Hey Wino, does this describe any of your relationships? Or is it just us breeders that have to deal with this??

IMHO, after they send Michael Jackson to prison, lock up any parent who was stupid enough to allow their young children unsupervised visits with Jackson. Maybe not as punishment, but is it safe for somone that stupid to be walking around?? Seriously, if you were making a list of celebrities to not allow private visits with, Jackson has got to be on your Top 10 list, unless you have a daughter

the b**** I kid because I care™

Read how a staunch conservative GOOPer Evil titled this thread and tell me again that Bushies would like staying in a eco-friendly, low impact resort. The drill and pump oil through the ANWR crowd, isn't staying here. They may have eliminated a small percentage of their potential guests, perhaps someone like you, but I agree with Jim, they didn't eliminate much of their market. Every business should have a target market in mind with their marketing. Just like cruises do not spend much time marketing to 19 year olds, or Moet & Chandon taking out ads in college newspapers, this company knows their primary market are those individuals who hold our environment in high esteem and willing to pay for the privilege. For the most part, they do not vote Republican. COuld you imagine Rush reading their eco-friendly ads? I believe he calls them environmental wackos.

Great work project

Nice to see someone betting their pocket books on their beliefs. I laugh down here as we promote Eco-Tourism and shuttle people around in Hummers, drive across the beaches, stay in hotels that wash your sheets daily (who does that at home?). The hook for that resort is the environement, seems like good business practice to not crap in your mess kit.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Mar 10, 2005 -> 05:12 AM) Not that specifically. Generally speaking, both sides bend and twist the rules in every which way they can to their advantage. In this case, it was GOP. Next time, it will be the Dems, maybe. It all depends when and where the next opportunity comes along. They are all as crooked as a dog's hind leg. They both use the same play book, that's for certain. What I think is genius, is the GOP has invented a couple new plays. Mid decade redistricting, media bias, activist judges, etc. are all new plays. Of course the DEMs are trying to find a way to run the same play. But these are pretty solid. I thought the DEMs opening up the Lincoln bedroom for fund raising was a slick maneuver. The GOP counter was equally effective. It would be a fun game to watch if our society wasn't dependent on these myopic ass clowns.

I know of a couple sites that have started flooding bugmenot with bogus log ins hoping to piss off enough users and cause people to actually log in with real addresses. They are also sites that like to sell their user list.
