  1. If the next President shifts focus from Iraq to Afghanistan (while rotating troops back home & making increases to veterans benefits when they return) with a major speech the Bush Admin will look even worse. It would preempt any of his pubescent cowboy rhetoric by actually focusing on terrorism.
  2. Hinder is the worst, though.
  3. yeah. i forgot how squeeling 'dance, dance!' is passionate music. sentence fragment. lets all agree that people who make emo songs arent all bad. maybe they really do care. yes. radio rock bands are passionless tripe. but the stuff on mtv can be pretty soulful. another sentence fragment.
  4. Fall Out Boy could compete for this distinction.
  5. "Political theatre" has become the new 'emboldening the enemy". Not that the embloden bit has left us or anything.
  6. Lieberman would filibuster for days and drool on himself if need be. Definitly not passing the Senate. But it looks great for the House to actually do what Americans want them to do, even if they can't actually end the war themselves.
  7. Sign him up, Green Bay, sign him up.
  8. When the other bands on rock radio are Nickelback & Hinder it shouldn't be hard for even Sevendust to sound better.
  9. It had been months since the old snuffbox term of endearment popped up.
  10. Politically, this also benefits Dems in another way...by preempting any possible attempt by Bush to actually do something right about Iraq as an '08 October Surprise (like LBJ trying to help his Mr. Slave, Hube, in 1968).
  11. I'm learning alot from this thread!
  12. And as soon as we eradicate it kids will no longer do stupid things.
  13. The withdrawl portion of the bill doesnt come into effect until Sept 2008, a year and half away. With so many Americans already at odds with this war as it is, this will look very bad for Bush if he vetos it. He would be saying, very clearly, that he has zero intention of leaving Iraq any time soon & presumably casting serious doubts as to whether we will ever leave. While there is no explanation of what 'victory' would be, this is a glaring admission of nation-building & permanent bases. Bin Laden & Al Qaeda were extremely anxious to get the US military presence out of Saudi Arabia...if our presence is able to move to Iraq, they not only see their wishes fulfilled re: Saudi Arabia but also get an unstable breeding ground in Iraq anyway, a rallying point for global terrorism, and the continued neglecting of Afghanistan. An incredible fumble by this Administration on par with nothing in our history. This is the result of big govt naievety at the helm of our military.
  14. Please stop with the 'why do you all care so much?' bullshit, lovecraft. HE keeps coming back. We aren't dragging him back into the fold under a dozen new accounts.
  15. 3 Inches of Blood & Daath added to 2nd stage.
  16. It sure is easy to blame, though.
  17. I missed where 'whore' = 'celebrity' now.
  18. Yeah, high schoolers having sex is new to the present generation of students.
  19. I don't want to see Randy vs. Fedor either.
  20. The binding House bill that provides the massive budget for Iraq that the Bush Admin desires & a stipulation that the US transition out of a combat force by next Aug/Sept has passed. Bush, showing his hand's permanent base/nation building cards, has said he will veto the bill. The Iraq money vs Afghanistan money for the budget is something like $96 billion to $7 billion.
  21. Favre's other claim to fame in those early days was throwing the ball to himself and looking like a retard. There's still hope for Houston.
  22. I'm not sure which was the lamer attempt at e-coolness, the above post or that incredibly pathetic Matisyahu post a couple days ago. Ugh.
  23. Generation W? Fucking stupid.
  24. Ace Something in the wrestling folders made a very WP-ish post recently. It was kinda funny.
  25. Maybe Houston is hoping to get as lucky trading for an Atlanta backup as Green Bay did about 15 years back. Of course, GB didn't give up that much either.
