  1. Oh god, they had to use that visitor-submitted MoveOn contest ad that compared him to Hitler. Where was the ad with the first Hitler reference? It said paid by MoveOn but I couldn't see it. Oh, wait, another submission, I guess. LOL!!!!!! Bush = Optimism? Last I heard, the war on terror was supposedly the new calling of our time and we should be bracing for youngest children to be fighting it in twenty years because DEFEATING THOUGHT IS HARD.
  2. RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMOOOOOORRRRS Almost everything in this thread is an unconfirmed rumor taken as fact. That's sad. Anyway, I doubt Nintendo will have the edge in the next gen. They're lazy, short-sighted, and now they've gone insane about how they want to change the most basic fundamentals of gaming because somehow the industry is dying. All this dying is restricted to Nintendo. If they took their blinders off and opened themselves up to seeing what other people are doing, they'd see that people are making good money. A game industry run by Microsoft or Sony is a bad thing, so I hope Microsoft can eventually reach the point where they begin making money in the Xbox department, because those two ripping each other's throats out is good for all of us.
  3. I've been recovering from a nasty virus that hit my computer, so I've been out of the fighting for a while here. Look, I think it's unfair and stupid to snipe at Bush for sitting in the room and reading during that time. However, I thought it was equally stupid when I saw the usual crew of talking heads talk about how he was projecting calm and grace under fire. Let's just be honest, people. He was trying to mentally swallow the news just as we were. To villify or glorify those moments is beyond stupid.
  4. You're just saying that to annoy me, huh?
  5. The law is not unbreakable. It is simply a guide. There are punishments for getting caught breaking the law, and except in extreme cases or cases of physical resistance, violence isn't one of them. I agree with Cerebus' post. The complaining by the guy seems a little petty but the situation was clearly under control. I consider the guy's crying foul to be his method of extracting a little revenge out of the situation, and I won't say whether that's right or wrong because I don't know if I'd do that myself if such a beating was handed to me.
  6. Death is death is death. Stick to your guns or not, don't try to justify it.
  7. The problem with Heyman is that none of his ideas have ever drew money. Ideas people have taken from him have drew money, but that's not the same thing according to the boss, especially since the boss was the guy doing the taking.
  8. Better to abstain from voting than vote when you don't understand any of it. That's what I believe, anyway. That's why I didn't vote in 2000.
  9. Flair might be bitter, but Bret has been bitter for YEARS, and has been very public about it. Advantage: Flair. I like Foley more though, both as a guy and as a character.
  10. (unfunny remark about Germany, Hitler, and supersoldiers)
  11. Absolutely not. Our state elections are screwed up enough already. We don't need another Florida. It also encourages waving your voting pen around uninformed, which can be worse than not voting at all.
  12. Well, at least he's quiet about it. I think of Soros more as Scaife than Moon, but I just prefer the Moon comparison becase it makes our guy look less crazy. Well, at least I'm honest.
  13. That would discourage high-speed chases, and would provide me with a lot less entertainment. Rejected. Also: http://www.kttv.com/
  14. Wow. Suddently, George Soros seems like a pretty well-adjusted guy.
  15. I expect an HHH cover on the DVD. With a slogan like "Let the games begin" it just makes sense.
  16. I think it's the old thing about taking a life to save a life. A couple people here in the last few posts have stated that an embryo is a human life but I'm not sure if they realize that opinion is a point of contention. Oh well, I still maintain that you can keep going and eventually reach at "STOP MASTURBATING! YOU'RE KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE!"
  17. And here I thought the Kinetic pictures couldn't get any worse than the shot on his hands and knees wearing only his underwear. I was wrong.
  18. Invited a few friends to the house to find that a bunch of kids had broken in and pranked the hell out of it to make it look like a rejected set from a horror movie. Mostly me going around throwing crap out and cleaning up the ketch, uh, bloodstains and crap. Not fun.
  19. Hey, we did the same thing in elementary school. I represented Clinton (minus the blowjob jokes) with a bunch of material I learned from watching one of his informercials. We didn't have a Perot, though. I won, even though our teacher (remember, this is a private school with one teacher teaching a group every subject through the afternoon) twice mentioned that she supported Bush Daddy (once the other kid in the fake election, and then saying she voted for him in the real one.) So somehow I managed to beat the Republican special interests.
  20. I cashed in another unemployment check from the government to buy a sense of humor just for you.
  21. This is right, you are either 100% right or 100% left. This is why I'm listening to Best Of Streisand before leaving for the small locally-owned coffee shop being squeezed by Starbucks across the street, where we will expouse on how a book of poetry found in the Used Books section of the attatched bookstore draws strong connections to the plight of prisoners in Iraq, although the book was written 35 years prior. Then we'll go to a friend's house so we can help him finish taking down all the Howard Dean campaign posters still applied to his house, so we may cover the place in Dennis Kucinich posters. Meanwhile, KKK is in a stately mansion and discussing to his pre-lunch teatime friends (all white, of course) about how business and the free market ought to be able to control everything it can without regulation. He will then need a limo, and request that one of his butlers (all minorities, of course) bring one of the fleet around so he can put some time in at the golf course.
  22. Googled. Results are a bunch of documents on the subject that reference the article, as well as one index, but nowhere can I find the article itself. Similar. Science Magazine's site has it archived, but wants you to pay to access it. Actually found this one. I can't understand very much of this dialogue, though, and I doubt most of us can either. If you'd break it down, it'd be appreciated. This is all that's made available. And then, when asking me if I want more and I said yes and gave some specific directions that would help, you told me that you gave me all the help I would get. In conclusion, this went exactly as typically expected.
  23. In an world where all is just, there'd be a link going to a plea from a scientist rejecting embryonic stem-cell research. One I could read, not just an index that one exists somewhere. In a perfect utopian society, this person would not be speaking in the forum of an anti-abortion group, but I guess we can't always have what we want. The PDF is educational but admits that we don't know everying and "the only way to uncover these benefits is to keep researching and learning" yet concerned that "The more we learn about early human development, the more tempted we may be to attempt to change characteristics." In other words, fear that we're playing God. -=Mike (well, it's my name, too) ...Still waiting for something that doesn't involve the man upstairs or Mother Nature rejecting the new proceedures.
  24. Actually, I expect Zell to switch over eventually and wrap himself in Reagan's "they left me" line. The timing is certainly ripe. McCain is probably a better example of a guy who's agenda blurs party lines. Or Arnold, who's really restrained any bashing of the Dems and charmed most people on both sides. There was a lot of skepticism about the car tax promise, and it hurt our credit rating even more, but it's already gone back to where it was. Now to see if he can boost things even more. Stuff like this pretty much confirms that two parties just aren't enough to keep it clean however.
  25. Good choice. However, the job of getting a replacement Senator is left to the Governor. Who happens to be Republican. While your position is agreeable, and I actually agree with it, you can't deny there certainly is dirty politics all the way around. The GOP is manipulating Kerry to leave and persue his Presidential race so that they can get an edge in the Senate.
