Things that make you go Hmmmmm?
I spent much of the past couple years helping companies source products overseas and outsourcing. Bush has been very very good to me. I'm out of that now. I can feel better about myself.

John Kerry and his red rider BB gun
Because a well armed militia could protect us from hostile governments including our own. Mexico also has very strict gun laws.

Zero-tolerance policy overridden in S. burbs
Welcome to the US where there are always checks and balances. In the US, adults cannot sign away rights of minors. For example I know of a pre-nuptial that was later updated to specifically state that if the woman wished to have a child, the father would not be responsible for child support if the marriage ended. It did and the court ruled and was upheld that the child support was for the child, not the mother, and she had no standing to negotiate away the child's rights. The father sends the checks every month. The courts have an obligation to review these matters when they are brought before the court. As a matter of law, and I4E who is a lawyer might comment, that a contract is not valid if any portion of the contract is against the law. If the school district's policy is ruled illegal, they will not have a choice but to re-admit the student. s***ty situation, it reminds me of the kid with the plastic butter knife and the girl who brought Midol from home. Both were expelled within these Zero Tolerance rules for weapons and drugs.

We would all win I can tell you this afterwards Kerry would receive a Purple Heart and no one would have seen Bush.

I love the image of the US against the world. Who needs any allies?- chick fight
At one point it looked like the brunett was laughing. I wonder if it was staged and the punches were pulled.- Electoral College projection
They all do it. Clinton did it best.- The Next Big Bombshell
Of course the SBV would tell you he didn't earn those medals anyway. So many people were very quick to believe the vets against Kerry over the vets supporting the official record. Just pointing out how blind some people are to their own candidate's human frailities and quick to tear down the opponents. I believe the person I am voting for was an alcoholic, used cocaine, used his dad's influence to avoid unpleasant situations, and probably a few more things that hasn't been discovered. He looked and acted like a spoiled rich kid. I believe he has grown up and can lead this country. Sadly, his views are closer to mine than his opponents.- The Next Big Bombshell
But so quick to believe stuff against a decorated Viet Nam Police Action Veteran.- Electoral College projection
Notice the GOP didn't have any of the religious leaders on prime time? As all successful campaigns of the past 20 years have done, dive to the center.- Greetings from under Frances!
It is great to hear you are safe.- Electoral College projection
No it is more "in" to be a conservative. You have all those nice radio shows to listen to, all the best sellers on the NY Times list, Fox News. It is much more trendy to be a conservative today.- Electoral College projection
I think that Kerry's support will be a lot like Clinton's. People will lie about voting for Bush, then pull the lever for Kerry. I think it is a little about embarassment.- Still Hope
I was looking at my soxtalk wall paper and we were so damn well set up if we were only 3 or 4 out.- You get what you deserve
Whenever I would attend races at Road America you could always count on some idiots racing on the expressway heading home. The cops would have a field day.- Last Letter First Letter

See the contest board for all the NFL contests including Bears YNOT and Pick a Loser.- Soxtalk NFL Losers Pool
Single elimination. As soon as you pick wrong, you are out of the pool. Which reminds me of another rule. If you miss a pick for the week you are out of the pool.- Still Hope
We could sweep the Twins and finish only two or three back. It's over. NO one has ever come from that far back with so few games left.- First Day of School
