Yes.

All the ESPN experts are calling it a Seattle blowout tonight, so I'm feeling a bit more confidant about GB's chances.

I laughed at both.

I will grant Bayh my liking of his small govt stances...and, while nation building is probably the greatest example of a Big Govt fan there is, he doesn't seem to be in favor of that despite his original Iraq vote. Speaking of which, nation-building is now the 'reason' for our presence in Iraq, does anyone recall that being part of the reason for the original invasion?

I haven't heard any of the new songs. The cd was pushed back from next month to 'sometime early next year'

They're my fave American band. They will get even more popular, presumably, with the upcoming record. But they will never be able to reach the popularity level of 50 Cent/Nickelback/Kenny Chesney and the rest of the mainstream acts that record solely to appease labels and radio. America has plenty of great artsits, some with a fair level of polularity, but our current system only allows for the cheesiest of the cheese at the top.

Only the most generic of rap, rock, and country music gets really, really popular in America.

Huh?

That's for the best.

Don't care.

BA RUM BA DUMP A DUMP DUMP!!!

Christmas music? Really?

He had a brilliant hour and a half speech on the Iraq War, Terrorism, and Foreign Affairs that aired on C-Span last night. But, of course, that would require actually looking into Obama's stances on topics and not just following the 'hes just a nice black fellow' line. And, I guess Jerk just cant give any specifics on why Bayh is better than either Feingold or Edwards.

And what makes SuperBayh so much better than John Edwards?

This thread was fun for before the shortbus pulled up.

Ah. Thanks for clearing that up. My apologies for thinking that you thought Creed was anywhere near PJ. Creed, Stapp especially, never were able to decide if they were a clone of PJ, the Doors, or STP. But they could probably suck a cock with the best of 'em.

Jerk, "unmarked police van".

How do you empty two magazines on suspicion that the other guy might possibly, maybe, have a gun? I expect this kind of thing from a drunk deer hunter in Wisco, but a 12 year veteran of the fraternal order of police?

This is just too much for me. I show a historical parallel (the same could be said of many other national candidates), reiterate that I am ONLY speaking of that particular parallel and NOT a comparison of the two as people/politicians/candidates, and you STILL dont comprehend. Unreal.

Fo realz?

There's nothing inherantly wrong with raising children that are not biologically your own.

That's nice. And correct. And irrelevant.

Yeah, if it would have been like 60 shots fired by the police then I could see the problem. But 50, whats the big deal? Am I right?

They are not alike. Is this bit of history and it's similarity to Edwards situation on the national stage something that is just too far out there to grasp? Am I on Mars or something when I suggest that JFK luckily avoiding being on the losing ticket can relate to Edwards possibly struggling to get past not being so lucky as to avoid that loser stigma? Is it now taboo to even find parallels to things that JFK didn't do? Is he now that much of a sacred cow?

But she followed your lead on the no-question-marks-gimmick. Doesn't that count for anything?
