  1. http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/busi..._economy10.html 21 Senators voted against it (1 Republican), 132 Reps voted against it (6 Republicans). Many of the liberal hawks have repented.
  2. By the way, since I never saw you in the WWE folder when I was there, how did you happen upon our happy family? Usually the WWE folder is the intake, then people branch out to cover everything, then give up on wrestling and just post everywhere else, then finally hole up in NHB, but I think you just came straight to CE. What's your story? I lurked for a while back in the day when I liked wrestling. That was a long time ago, like back in my late high school/early undergrad days (I'm now almost finished with my MA). I guess I never really cared enough about wrestling to actually post about it. I started to become interested in politics and stuff about the time I stopped watching wrestling.
  3. I wonder if this poll is pretty close to the views of younger Americans at large. What is Bush's approval among young voters (I'm assuming that most of the posters here fall in the 18-29 demographic)? I would think this board would actually trend right-ward because of the content (wrestling) and the fact the majority of posters are probably male. But we did have the right-wing exodus. Bush's approval rating among young voters could be as low as 20%, which is about what it is currently in this poll. Kerry beat him by over 10% among young voters, and his popularity has fallen significantly since then. I could be wrong, though.
  4. I wish I had a nickel for every time Snuffbox mentioned Barry Goldwater. Don't you know that a rising tide lifts all...well, yachts, mostly. On another note...it's going to be a photo finish!
  5. The sad thing is, my truck driver brother would probably wear shit like this. Here is a sampling of the images from his myspace page:
  6. Eisenhower did. http://www.democracycollaborative.org/publ...itz_012703.html I think Goldwater's proposed tax plans even had rates well over 50% for the top brackets back in the day.
  7. I'm thinking of changing my sig. Which one of these should I use?
  8. Kindred spirits, he and I.
  9. Strawberry fluff!
  10. This was dubbed "Eliminator" at the daycare where I used to work. Furthermore, 500 was terrible. Hotbox, on the other hand...

  12. Othello and King Lear.
  13. Fuck yeah.
  14. snuffbox how many books about presidents have you read?
  15. *an idiot P.S. I'm not calling you an idiot, I3K, just correcting a pet peeve.

  17. As we celebrate the 3rd anniversary of the end of major combat operations in Iraq (that war seems a distant memory), I think it's important to look back at how the liberal media tried to make the President's great victory seem somehow less meaningful than it really was. Bastards. Some highlights: Chris Matthews: Boy do those critics look stupid now! NYTimes: "Liberal" columnist Joe Klein: And the coup de grace, yep, Brit Hume:
  18. My take on the Bush presidency is pretty similar to that of the Powerline blog: http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/011183.php

  20. You're ignoring the HUGE differences between Kosovo and Iraq. At last count, about 2500 differences. But there are still way more than that.
  21. You can also just do a search on Youtube. There's three parts. Just type in "Colbert roast" or something like that for your search.
