  1. Iraq was a much bigger threat. The President told me that. Weapons of mass destruction in the hands of a government that hates us must be dealt with. I wonder when we invade?
  2. I was an absolute jerk and broke up with a girl exactly two days before our "3 Year Anniversary" of dating. Maybe I just should have bought the gift and waited.
  3. Evil, that was my point. The conservatives believe that the media has a liberal bias and overlooks or under reports Dem wrongdoing. I was merely pointing out that the media loves a good scandel and reports on Dem wrongdoing also. And as you helped to point out, the media did report on these events. I used obvious examples that everyone knew about. If the under reorting was true we wouldn't have heard much about these events. Thanks for the help.
  4. Timing? Didn't the Bush campaign just release some documents a couple months ago that were just found? Seems plausible enough that they were just found. The timing doesn't concern me. No one would be looking for them until now, or it took this long for them to be found.
  5. Gee Queen, tell us how you've broken up with a girlfriend?
  6. s*** Ozzie is so good he can talk in green I saw Ozzie during his playing days against the Brewers. My employer leased several Lexus (Lexi?) from Selig Leasing and we had supposedly Buds seats for the game. They were second row up from the visitors on deck circle. Why the owner would be on the visitor side, if true, explains a lot about Selig (Duh,we sit where?) Anyhow Ozzie is at bat and get ab-so-f***in-lutly robbed out of extra bases by the Brewers 3rd baseman. Its a tight game and Oz is now 0-4, with 4 rockets. As he nears the dugout his helmet comes flying off his head and flung into the sugout as he yells F*ck this m*th*erf*cking game! I looked around me and said "Well his English sure has improved." His latest comments? Classless, yes. Professional, no. Funny as hell? yes. and I also think it tells he's as mad about a 2nd place finish as the rest of us cursed fans.
  7. Why are they so popular? They feed on each other. I am glad to see you are lumping them together. Rush does a nice job of setting up straw arguments, bullying people who disagree with him, and making his listeners feel superior to everyone else. I cannot listen to Hannity for more than 2 minutes and cannot fairly critic the Hannitization of America. I dislike anyone telling me they have an exclusive on truth, wisdom, and are the only authory on what is correct. I get that from Hannity in truck loads and Rush in wheel barrow loads. Neither show will ever have an intelligent liberal who can state his case fairly. When they do put on liberals they are usually far left crack pots and easily made fun of. Fox was quick to see the ratings coo that a news source could have if it pandered to conservatives. Of all the media, the most biased is Fox. Which is ironic. They are so far to the right they look like moderates to the conservatives. Again, what worries me even more than the left or right leanings is the movement to make the GOP seemingly perfect. The campaign to discredit judges and the media will eventually leave up with a party who cannot be fairly criticized or corrected. The GOP is trying to destroy the only group that consistently watches them and reports on what they are doing. Media reports will be dismissed as just a liberal smear and judges who fairly and evenly apply the law will be railroaded out in favor of judges who follow the GOP agenda.
  8. 19!! Happy Birthday! Why didn't you send tickets to all the Aussie Club Members for a party?
  9. Sorry Kap my son was working on his Eagle Scout project last night (and all this weekend) and I was busy helping him and couldn't log in until today. If you really want to read again Tex's Media Guide here it is. And sorry about yesterday, I was looking for sarcastic comedy and only found sarcasm. In the almost morning light, that sucked. Graphically Liberals ---------- Media --------- Conservatives The media looks conservative to a liberal and liberal to a conservative. That is normal and I would consider correct. Liberal's Guide to the Media: Negative story on Dems - Right Wing Conspiracy Positive Story on GOP - Right Wing Conspiracy Positive story on Dems - Wow they got one in a thousand right Neg story on GOP - Wow, they got one in a thousand right Turn on talk radio, Proof of the Right Wing Conspiracy. The media does not allow in intelligent liberal to have a show. Only right wing nut jobs. Proof of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy. Conservative's Guide to the Media: Negative story on Dems - Wow they got one in a thousand right or it must be Fox Positive Story on GOP - Wow they got one in a thousand right or it must be Fox Positive story on Dems - Damn Liberal Media Agenda Neg story on GOP - Damn Liberal Media Agenda Turn on talk radio, confirmation of the liberal bias, confirmation of the conservative agenda, mega dittos thinking. The GOP is winning one of the biggest political manuevers in history. Any negative press is explained by the messengers being lying liberals in the media. Any Judge that overturns a law is a damn activist Judge not doing his job. Once they fully indoctrinate the faithful, it's mega dittos time without any checks and balances and our freedoms go out the window. How will you know when any GOP members makes a mistake if you just dismiss it as a liberal conspiracy against him? The GOP enjoyed the Teflon ™ President, Ron Reagan. They liked it so much they decided it would be even better to be the Teflon™ party. The best way to stop criticism is have it not be believed. Who is the #1 group in our history to stop crooked politicians and expose wrong doings? Journalists and Commentators. What happens when we stop listenening to them and only listen to the parties mouthpieces and cheerleaders? Mega Dittos Rush! What should we believe today? I would go so far as to say the organized attempt by the GOP to discredit all media except the brown noses to be the greatest threat to our freedoms and rights as an American today. Democracy needs a strong journalistic tradition. The NRA always mentions that Dictators first take the guns. Nope, they first take the Radio and TV stations. Remember the TET Offensive? One of the first targets was the government run radio station. The North Vietnamese wanted to sway the minds first. I do not believe that Rush and Hannity started that. I believe it was stumbled upon by the GOP and now is its own movement or campaign by the party. The first line of attack or defense for a conservative candidate or office holder.
  10. See it's stuff like this Do you think the AP would have run the story if it was a Kerry demonstrator? Damn media bias.
  11. Those companies were quick and jumped the gun a bit. Tough to put the cat back in the bag.
  12. Mega Dittos Kap!! Of course the media is evil. Except Fox, there outstanding, not like the Clinton News Network Must only believe Rush and Hannity. The media is out to destroy America. We would be better off with a government run press, as long as Chaney runs it. Mega Dittos!! I love Rush. He is the greatest American. Rush overcoming that liberal media inspired, activist judge running, plot regarding his heroic battle with pain meds has inspired a generation. I was so moved when he heroically came forward and announced to the world the plot against him really touched me.
  13. Queen, what kind of volume are you trying to do? Thousands? Millions? Compenents like caps, resistors, or semis? Or finished equipment like boards?
  14. The best chance for a woman, or black, or hispanic, or any other group that hasn't broke through a barrier in politics is by being a GOP.
  15. Oops sorry I just took a swig of this GOP koolaide and feel kind of strange Mega Dittos everybody. Media is biased, gays are evil, Janet Jackson is immoral, we need vouchers, Rush is a victim of over zealous prosecution, Megga Dittos, I'm thinking like everybody else Bush just got lucky to get that air national guard spot, mega dittos, media is biased, must not believe media, mega dittos, only believe Rush and Hannity . . . media sucks, must only trust GOP news, mega dittos,
  16. Are you saying that the media also reports when Dems do wrong!? To hear the GOP talk; all the media does is slam the GOP and refuses to cover any Dem wrong doings. Maybe the media isn't so bias after all.
  17. Well after one game we have two players knocked out. Heads22 and Kapkomet Man 0f Steel falls out with the Tennessee Titans winning. The Browns stunning victory knocks out four CWSGuy406 - Browns CrimsonWeltall - Browns Rowand 44 - Browns AssHatSoxFan - Browns Betting on the Lions losing sounded good, but that would mean the Bears winning: He gawn soxman352000 - Lions BeGood falls in week one with the Jaguars We started with 31 players and now have 22. Almost 1/3 of the players were out in week 1. I will have the week 2 pick thread up Tuesday morning. Moving to week two so far for picking the Colts: greasywheels121 Spiff Southsider2k4 Steff Moving on with the Dolphins Savvy8 I'll update as games are finished: Here is a summary. I'll try and learn how to format this so it is easy to read.

  18. The school is getting sued now with zero tolerance.
  19. This whole election f***ing sucks. JK and W are ass clowns who don't deserve to be President, and the only people I despise more right now are the people who have allowed leaders, people of integrity, people with visions, to be chased away from public service. This is by the far the worse choice we have faced in my life time. I'd take Bob Dole or Al Gore over these two. I actually had high hopes for W.
  20. Do you have a problem with the kid sitting out three years if he isn't safe in two? Pellet Gun = Gun Plastic Knife = Knife Same lack of allowing human decision making in the policy. When does a plactic butter knife become a dangerous weapon? Instead of allowing some human to use their brains, we try and write a policy in advance that will cover every conceivable situation. Write the definition too wide and some kid who is helping grandma move is expelled, too narrow and a dangerous weapon is allowed. As an excercise write a definition of "knife". Let trained educators think and make judgements.
  21. Of course the entire world is against the GOP. I heard that Clinton may have had a problem with an intern, did you hear anything about it? I hear Kerry may not have earned those medals, I wonder why that hasn't been reported? I heard Rostenkowski years ago may have cheated on his franking priveleges? Iwonder why that was never reported? I heard Ted Kennedy may have had a problem with a drunk driving situation, I wonder why no one knows about that. I heard that Jesse Jackson may have fathered a child out of wedlock, I wonder why that wasn't reported? As soon as the GOP gets in a jam they immediately blame the messenger.
  22. We have certain rights to protect ourselves from our governement. Innocent people shouldn't worry about search and seizure laws, Miranda warnings, 48 hours of sleep deprivation, etc.
  23. What is fun to speculate about is this, if it is a forgery, was it done by the Dems or the GOPs?
