Robert Downey Jr. was a good choice to play Iron Man, exhibit A:

Its also a song about a guy who is made out of metal and blows stuff up. No, that's nothing like the comics character AT ALL.

Does have anything to do with Nissan cars, either, but that didn't stop them from using it in their commercial. The song's lyrics probably have more in common with the comic character than virtually anything else the song has ever been associated with.

The actual quality probably be in 480p (same as a DVD), if its anything like the other HD movie channels.

Chloe...talking about...blowing things...too much...to handle...

If God didn't want us to kill each other over natural resources, he'd have given us electric cars.

I read the shit out of this.

Jim's over Pam I wouldn't be so sure of that.

As IRON MAN????

Is Cable really joining Iron Man's team?

Iron Man's characterization through all of this has been the most bizarre, with Reed Richards being a close second.

Polling data seems to indicate that many Americans seem to agree with her. Or at least they feel that Republicans are less hostile to the Christian religions than the Democrats. Which I think has some root in fact. Fact? I'm not familiar with ANY Democratic politicians who are hostile toward religion. Perhaps Republican are just more likely to try to exploit religious belief to win votes? Not that Bill Clinton didn't do it by giving speeches in churches and quoting the Bible to help justify a political position that actually had little to do with religion, but George W. Bush took it too another level with his "Jesus is my favorite political philosopher" comment. The major difference, I see, between liberals and conservatives when it comes to religion is simple: Religious liberals quote the Bible when its convenient for them to make a point, whereas religious conservatives want to use the law to impose their religious views on people. Both sides, I believe, need to be reminded that Article 6 of the U.S. Constitution specifically forbids religious tests for public office for a good reason. This "Vote for me because I'm a Christian just like you" garbage really needs to stop.

http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/09/28/bush.ap/index.html This is infuriating. He lumps all criticism of his war policies together into one big pile called "cut and run", then completely ignores that what he's doing just isn't working.

Except no major public figure on the left has ever actually said that. Some jerkoff at an anti-war rally != Jerry Falwell. Jerry Falwell hasn't been important in years. Why do people think he and Robertson are still relevant? It's not Falwell or Robertson so much that has to be worried about, rather the priests and preachers etc....that basically outright tell every member of their church to vote conservative merely because of the abortion issue. Gay rights are almost as big. I have an 84 year old grandmother who I know for a fact has voted Republican in every election since 1976. She wouldn't know the laffer curve from a sewer drain, doesn't know the first thing about cost/benefit analysis applied to government regulations, either side of the strict constructionist/loose constructionist constiutional interpretations, or what effect government spending has had on poverty rates...but she thinks that Republicans beleive in the Bible more than the Democrats do, and that's how she votes.

Okay, I'm giving it another chance tonight. (This is about the 4th time, by the way.)

You're like the anti-Stan Lee.

Even better: If none of this matters, then why have Republicans been using this (as the largest part of their overall argument that the Democrats are to blame for national security problems) as their top campaign issue for the last 4 years? Why is that, 5 years lafter 9/11, tv ads like this, are still being made? There was a deliberate, concerted, and dishonest effort to pin 9/11 on Clinton and the Democrats so Republicans could win the 2002 and 2004 elections. Clinton's response may be 4 years too late, but its hardly unwarranted.

Add Hubert Humphrey to the list of "strong on defense" Democrats the GOP will try to compare Bush to, I guess.

His uniform, I thought, had a "made it himself" vibe to it.

Say...didn't Matthew Perry once play one of those so-called "eeeeeeeevil Republicans" on "The West Wing"? Hmmm. I guess they couldn't have been so "eeeeeeeevil" after all.

Oh swell, the backlash is already beginning. This has the potential to be worse than Lost and Entourage combined. So did you actually watch it yet?

Does it matter to you at all that Clinton's claims are retaliatory, after he was blamed for 9/11 by the Bush Administration? Does it matter to you at all that there may actually be some truth to his claims that he came closer than Bush has? It may seem school-yardish to point this stuff out, but the original charge made by Ashcroft and others is the main reason the Democrats have suffered such heavy political losses between 2002 and now.

This is awesome... http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/09/24/fal...l.ap/index.html

Do you mean besides George Allen himself?
