When is the last time the GOP put out a respectable candidate for President?

PLAYOFFS?!?!?!?!?!?

Wow D.Wade.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Nov 10, 2013 -> 03:49 AM) You guys disagree with me, but I still say he'll go down as the worst president in the last 50 years. That's laughable. The president's recent predecessor did some shady things that's still affecting the economy today but you're entitled to your own opinion. I think Obama at least tried to help Americans. I just think he didn't really count the costs of doing so. Trying to give Americans access to the healthcare is a noble gesture, it just seemed rushed and not clear cut and now things are started to look dismal. You could argue Obama was probably a bit over his head a bit but all in all I really think he had good ideas on paper but just could not execute them. He still has a couple years left to salvage whatever he can but to say he's the worst president is just disingenuous. Since Obama raised the age to 26, I was able to get some important healthcare services done while I was still in school and not having to rely on my s***ty university one. So I'm grateful.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 8, 2013 -> 02:55 PM) You want to talk to me about health care costs wiping out a life savings in an instant? Try having a spouse who is sick, actually needs medical coverage, and is uninsured. Come back to me when you've paid $1000 to go to an urgent care center who do a couple tests and give her antibiotics that are useless because you can't actually get a regular doctor to see you. Try putting together an application for individual coverage and being flatly denied because of that pre-existing condition or getting a quote that is more than you make in 2 years. How would you like to have a family member of yours in constant pain, basically unable to do anything for years, because they lack health insurance? Get back to me when you've gone through that agony and I might have a tiny bit of sympathy. You want to talk about a website being embarrassing? We should be embarrassed that people go through this crap in a civilized country every single day, but we're not because they're not important enough. This. I think the true embarrassment is that things like this do happen in our country which allegedly the "greatest" in the world.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 7, 2013 -> 01:40 PM) Johnson Space Center is well worth the trip. If you go that way, take the extra half hour drive and spend a day on Galveston Island. Thanks, I forgot all about the Space Center. What's on Galveston Island?

I'm not budging unless you put term limits on there. Career politicians are what got us into the mess we're in now.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Nov 7, 2013 -> 12:59 PM) Go to Midtown and eat some of the great Tex Mex and enjoy some of the nightlife... Cool any place in particular?

I wasn't sure if there was a thread for this already, but if there is, I'm sure a mod will bring swift justice. I'm going to Houston next weekend. Has anyone been there before? If so, what recommendations do you have?

I'm not too worried about the Bulls either. I think they'll pull it together. Thibs is a good coach and D. Rose is still working out the kinks. By mid season, they'll be back to their old ways. Like I said before, I'm happy this is happening now rather than later in the season.

I rather them go through this now and fix it than late in the season.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Nov 6, 2013 -> 07:13 PM) A 7-game series with these two would be god awful to watch. Easy their tiger. It's only a few games in the season and you're ready to make that kind of statement?

No offense to Max, he is a great pitcher but he had sooooo much fuggin run support it's not even funny. Darvish had 4 1-0 loses.

Man Duke, I would love to see you get Martin's treatment and act like that's OK. I think you're a putting on a front just to get a reaction out of people.

QUOTE (DukeNukeEm @ Nov 5, 2013 -> 02:02 PM) I know, thats one of the things that bothers me when I wonder why liberals didnt just move instead of having to stay here and ruin America. How are liberals ruining America?

Welcome back, Duke.

Maybe the Packers should have protected their glass QB instead of letting an undersized Shea McClellin level their QB. f*** THE PACK! THEY GOT THEIR ASSES BEAT LAST NIGHT.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Nov 4, 2013 -> 11:36 PM) Happy for the win...not excited for the next INT Jay throws and the meatheads come out in droves asking for McCown I am pretty sure people are happy to have a serviceable backup like McCown.

Republicans shoot themselves in the foot time and time again. They need a really really strong candidate to win in 2016.

Awww shucks I wanted to see what Andy said.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 31, 2013 -> 03:59 PM) 25 cold, hard American dollars. I can do paypal or chase quickpay. Venmo is sweet. Check it out.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Oct 31, 2013 -> 12:24 AM) What an absolute disgrace that a proven cheater be given the WS MVP. Sigh... oh well
