  1. And you've never said anything of content aside from attacking other posters. No, not once. Probably about five times. EDIT: Now that I figured out what "PKB" meant, are you telling me that there are other countries out there that prefer to snub the rest of the world on such a scale?
  2. I also want to mention that it's impossible for a candidate to explain an exit strategy in two minutes or less. This is not a set it and forget it oven or even six minute abs. That kind of detail will never be popular as long as the majority of Americans prefer soundbytes over policy.
  3. Okay, now that I've read the thread: A) I think it's pretty clear that Bush doesn't plan to stop wrapping the Iraq war in the rhetoric of September 11th. Anybody who goes on about "September 10th thinking" or whatever with Iraq immediately loses points with me, but that's nothing new to Bush. His words about how "we'll have a strong coalition as long as I'm President" and "we're on the road to peace with me as President" and so on was not only a reverse (and softer) strategy of Dick Cheney's we're-gonna-get-hit-again speech, but was downright laughable. As though he is the glue holding the world together. The only way Bush brings the world together is in one message: Get Lost. B) Bush was losing his cool. He often began speaking his rebuttal before the moderator could tell him of his time and ask him to begin. C) Some of you guys are confusing your opinions with universal fact. The importance of a world community is a debatable issue, and you aren't automatically right. Certainly, in most every other country, the voice that a world community is worthless and needs to be abolished a lot smaller than it is in this country. I don't know where it said America can't work with the rest of the world. We can, we just need to be more humble and not throw our weight around as much as we have in the past few years.
  4. Reagan was an effective leader with a lot of popular support, but it's not like didn't make any scary moves. For instance, he let a lot of crazy people go out into the streets, saying they'd find private care that never really materialized. I don't think Kerry is trying to be the candidate of conservative values. If he was, I wouldn't support him, because I don't think it's in the government's place to regulate values.
  5. "You can't send mexed... Mixed messages" And of course, the crowd please: "*longish pause* Unnhhh... Well let me tell you about... Before I answer that.... I wanna start start with..." I hope you guys are ready to be good losers.
  6. You still have noticed that they've been calling it for Bush for well over a week now. The rambling at the bottom of the page isn't what the site is about, it's about the map and vote tally.
  7. Obviously they want to make it look like Bush will never win, that's why they have him ahead by over 100 electoral votes.
  8. The other week I got upset at Dick Cheney for politicizing terror and implying that a Kerry presidency would give terrorists more oppertunity to kill Americans. I said it was hogwash and making loud statements in pubic that terrorists would have an easier go was counter-productive to that whole "security" idea and almost a come-on to terrorists to attack us. So guess what Ted Kennedy says? Gee, thanks Ted. Should I mention that this story got the attention of the Pakistani press? So I would just like to apologize for Ted's behavior yesterday. Maybe someone slipped something into his Near-Beer.
  9. That electoral vote site has some depressing news:
  10. If PCS Vision is anything like mLife/mMode from AT&T (wireless CNN, stock tickers, movie times, directions, etc, using your phone like a gimpy little web browser) then don't even bother with it. That shit is fucking expensive. I ran up a $16 bill looking around mMode one month and trying to navigate menus. AT&T is now using GPRS, which is better than TDMA and the others. But man, those fees on data transfers, holy shit.
  11. Actually, much like the content of his movies, it's fluff.
  12. I believe you are not downwind, so enjoy the lights and sounds. Now, if it was Rainier, holy shit.
  13. And now, in our latest episode of Distorting The Issue, official party correspondence is compared to 527 advertising.
  14. For anyone not familiar with cable companies, this is the database he's talking about:
  15. No US politician except Howard Dean and Gavin Newsom (and that New York mayor who tried to ride his coattails) will touch the marriage thing, though. Everybody else wants unions, which was conveniently left out, because a large chunk of people (could I say *gasp* a majority?) who are non-hicks don't have a problem with unions. I don't know who leaked the Bible banning plans, though. Wouldn't have been me. That mission was far too important to me to give it away this early.
  16. Check with people in your area to see what's being offered. What you get can vary wildly from what people in the next town are getting, thanks to an industry that's been slow to update the infastructure.
  17. He wasn't bothering us during sanctions, and there's been nothing we've found yet that could imply he had the means to deliver anything we should be concerned about to us. I know some people (cough) get tiny orgasms every time they get to take a crack at France, but removing them in favor of a larger power isn't something I'm opposed to. Japan is trying to move towards getting a permanent seat, and they have a bigger economy and military than France. Also, no more than one EU country at a time at the table, please.
  18. The U.N. simply needs less seats, particularly on it's Security Council. If you really want shit to happen, make no seats permanent, go back to no vetos, watch shit get done. As it is, nothing can get done without somebody else cancelling anyone out. A world government isn't a bad idea, but the current U.N. is basically a very pretty podium with some seats.
  19. You're going to cross country for this show? With the product in it's current state, I weep for you.
  20. I got 218, which could have been worse. I can't even fathom what the setup will look like this year, 115 and 116 are floor seats directly behind the stage.
  21. What? Steroids? What. Well, yeah, they EXIST, but they're not crack-heroin or something. I can't remember the exact quote of that HHH radio interview, but he basically came within inches of defending steroid use inside the business and I imagine Vince must have dropped his head to the desk and banged it several times when he found out about that one. Mind for THE business, yes. Mind for RUNNING business, no.
  22. You'll make your money back. Even if you were like me with a 2 feedback rating and no fancy HTML'ed selling page, you'll at least make your money back.
  23. I don't think you understand quite how this company works. Doing something like that, you see, would be doing what the fans want.
  24. Looks like another blowout. This is the third year (in a row) I've succeeded at getting WM tickets, and I'm pretty suprised at the prices this year. Maybe I was spoiled by the mass seating at WM 19, but I was suprised to find out that lower bowl meant paying $100-$200 figures.
