snuffbox

One of the most racist and genuinely dangerous presidents in our history gets ranked the ninth best. The man who returned the country to a progressive civil rights trajectory and did more for U.S. veterans than maybe any president ever (including beating up a guy for fucking with the vet benefit coffers) gets tossed into the bottom five.

And, somehow, Estes Kefauver found himself wildly popular.

It'll be a really, really tight leash then.

"Yeah, he sucks, but he was sucking in a sucky place so it's cool," might not be the best defense for our friend EHME, Lord of the Curry.

Please allow the focus here to return to straw-men rather than your logic behind the decision, Czech.

Marvin's posts in Sports are not what I would call 'readable.'

What does that have to do with anything?

Has "he/she/they're right, though" ever been accurate?

Hey, now, let's leave Baltimore alone.

Beyond the internet, Tap Out t-shirts are a fine way of viewing Czech's thesis on display.

I would reccomend collecting information from a lot of people who know what it's like. Recruiters don't count.

Unless Glen Beck falls off the wagon and decides we're in World War Three again, yeah!

Let's just get it out of the way: They should both be stoned, beaten, and killed. The boy should, of course, be castrated first.

I don't like agreeing with Jerk but I do on his point 2. I've never understood how some people in the libertarian community (hi Tom Woods!) can follow the states' rights canard. You're either for freedom/liberty or not, and cloaking totalitarianism in the word "Alabama' rather than 'USA' is still the same long distance from freedom.

Oh, that's what that means.

Exposed to whore?

Poor Michael Phelps & friends. It's never good when the voters of a county decide to elevate a Barney Fife to high sheriff.

A lot of ammunition if your 'gun' is a retarded person.

I know, right? How did that would-be mother not get right up and tackle the would-be nurse/whatever and save that baby? There is no way that girl could have been in any kind of compromised state that might have prevented her from suplexing the other lady and saving her baby. Sick fucking bitch should die!

Vietnam had ended by the time the election of 1976 rolled around. A more apt example, that defeats the premise of never changing presidents in wartime, would be the NH primary voters telling Truman it's definitly time to go in 1952.

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/mma/...e.ap/index.html Marge and his trainer have been suspended for a year. Bob Arum, class act as always, says he'll just book him in Mexico. I'm not sure how adament the commission there is about ensuring that their local boxing deities don't bathe their hands in plaster.

Lenny Bruce's How To Talk Dirty And Influence People has some funny moments.

Did Glen Beck father any children back in his booze-and-drugs days? Now, fortunately, they'll only have to grow up with a firm sense of theatrical pathological lying.

Kid Diamond really needs to retire.

Ordered my Bonnaroo ticket this morning.
