Supposedly this week for McCain's VP pick. http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=27630

It's much different than the old days of the "trade every good player for jackshit" strategy in Milwaukee.

The Sabathia trade is looking pretty good so far.

That's not what Glen Beck told him.

Not the point.

After spending a more than a half of a wasted decade exhausting our military in Iraq, now there seems to be some consideration for actually getting serious in Afghanistan.

Oscar Diaz is in pretty bad shape after last night.

Ass? Or a hole in the ground?

I think it's perfectly in character for the "conservative" Glen Beck to be so infatuated with the oil companies. An industry that receives bountiful subsides from the taxpayer.

Same to assume. Actual big news from yesterday was the troop surge in Afghanistan, the drop in oil prices, and the continued fallout of Bush Jr's embarassing press conference.

Too bad the price of gas went up. Just like the last time you posted something about the price of oil barrels going down.

Was that only on one show?

No, I'm not going to vote for McCain. If Obama wants votes, he should act like it. A "change" label doesn't quite work when you vote for the same goodam thing that gets people in the opposing party labeled as fascists and the like. I'm not going to give him a free pass just because of the letter D next to his name. I haven't yet decided but as of now, it's a pretty big deal (maybe because I don't think all Democrats are flowery wonderful goodness and all Republicans are evil totalitarians). A bad policy is a bad policy no matter what party or what individual supports it.

I wonder where you got that dumbass canard.

It's all better now!

I'm glad you're so optimistic but, with this country inside the pollbooth, I'll believe itwhen I see it. Anyway, as of now I'm not voting for Obama. I'm not a big fan of the FISA thing.

On what grounds? The American People are the ones that vote. The same people who thought Barry Goldwater would blow up the world and LBJ would ensure peace in 1964, the people who decided that Richard Nixon would bring law-and-order to the country in 1968, the same people who deemed WW2 hero George McGovern to be a dope-smoking pacifist hippie in 1972, the same people who were led to believe that another WW2 hero was a wimp in 1988, the people who in 2002 AND 2004 decided that a political party was actually in cahoots with al Qaeda. There is no gurantee that this country will not decide that Obama is a Muslim, or will enslave all white people, or some other bullshit because we've already proven ourselves quite capable of voting with all the intelligence of a sack of dry cement. Polls already indicate that the American Voter believes that McCain will be the better commander in chief & will be better in Iraq, despite his not knowing a goddam thing about the situation there, the history, or the people involved. Basically, this country is indicating that they would go with the political/military equivalent of depositing their gambling money with a bookie that doesn't know the difference between the Green Bay Packers & the Chicago Bears.

Favre has been very good to the Giants.

They should shoot themselves in the foot for absolutely nothing? Good strategy! The team's moved on. They've clearly expressed to Brett Favre what his options are. They're not dragging out anything.

Yeah, Favre for a 7th round pick.

It's going to be close. And Obama can easily lose.

Sorry, Czech, but he's under contract with Green Bay for three more years. He signed the contract himself. He can't just decide that now he wants to pick and choose where he'll play.

I'll use some kind of crayon font next time.

I've been getting it right then. At least we can say 'tour', too-ur, right up here. 'Tore'? Fuck that.
