It's about time. Tune in next week to see if it sticks.

The treatment of African Americans in the South was atrocious up to the 20th century, so to say that was "standards of the time determined by the Founders" is wrong. That was the implicit will of the people. Women's right to vote wasn't until the 20th century, either. You've got to balance "what everyone wants" against "what is right". Theoretically, you could pass an Amendment banning gay marriage, then in 2 years the majority could be in favor of marriage, then in another 2 years the opinion could change again. You can't be passing Amendments (or laws) and then repealing them and then passing again on the whim of public opinion.

So who DOESN'T care about Foley/Orton
Spaceman Spiff replied to EdwardKnoxII's topic in The WWE Folder
Hey, at least it would get him his 1st serious heel reaction. -
Damn straight (no pun intended). Slavery, treatment of blacks in the South, women not able to vote - all examples of the "will of the people".
-
Well, *I* thought it was funny.

Spaceman Spiff replied to EdwardKnoxII's topic in The WWE Folder
I'll take Cena's watered-down face promos over Rock's supposed "comedy" 8 days a week. As for Cena/Foley - no interest, even if Rock is added. -
And, as other people pointed out, the will of the people isn't always what is right.

Speaking of, Billy Gunn hit Brock w/ a Diamond Cutter on this past SD. I'm surprised they let him use it, considering it was just another move in the match, while Golden Boy Orton uses it as his finisher.
-
He could have grabbed him a little. What's Jericho supposed to do, sell the move after Orton went flying by him, Gayda style? That's the problem w/ his version of the move - he's only using 1 arm to hit the move, so, coupled w/ his jumping application, it's easy to mess up the move, esp. if the person taking the move doesn't see him coming. He really should work at getting it more DDP-like.

City of San Francisco sues State of California
Spaceman Spiff replied to Jobber of the Week's topic in Current Events
or even to those who wish to lower the marriage age ("I was born attracted to children!"). Children aren't consenting adults, so that argument doesn't hold up. -

Spaceman Spiff replied to Jobber of the Week's topic in Current Events
Well, by that argument, the precedent has been set by hetero marriage to allow gay marriage. Both are 2 individuals. Polygamy is more than 2, so it's not on the same ground. The attraction wouldn't be denied. They'd have to choose one over the other. -

Marriage is between a man and woman. You're changing it to 2 people to accomodate a group. What would stop a group of threesomes from comaplaining that THEIR equal rights are being violated in a similar way. They've got legal rights - engage in a 1-on-1 relationship. People aren't born polygamists. -
They can't do that, they "only" have 5 hours. There's no time to give cruisers more than 1 match. Silly Trivia247...

You can't end up w/ 0. The lowest 2-digit number is 10, and 1+0=1, so ending up w/ a 0 is impossible.

Cracka-ass cracka...

I don't think I've ever changed my sig.

Nope. I think that was the original plan for the gimmick, but rumors are that Steph put the kibosh on it. As for Heat: --both Hardy and Storm got very nice face pops --the Cade/Jindrak vs. Helms/Rosey was a decent match
-
Forget the match for a minute. What did he get for his entrance? Modest reaction. Pretty much the same reaction for his entrance as he got after the match. Some booing, but not a whole lot.

#6 - some stuff fits, but others don't. I'm more of a cross between 4 and 6, IMO.

Should they really be jobbing Benoit to HHH in all these house shows? Once he wins the title, it might hurt him in the fans eyes after seeing him lose night after night all over the country.
-
He got a modest reaction. Not complete silence, but not even close to a deafening reaction. I saw people booing, and doing the "thumbs down" gesture, but they were definitely in the minority. Nowhere close to the reaction he should be getting.

It'll be like "Office Space". JR: "Yeaaaahhhhh, hi Hurricane. We're going to need you to stop doing the Shining Wizard, so if you could do that, that'd be great." Hurricane: "But, but, I, I did...the...move..." JR: "Yeaaaahhhh, great, thanks." "Hurricane: "I...I...I...believe you have...my stapler..."
