  1. I just wish that if Coulter comes on with a book to promote, that the pundits attack her on the facts. I remmeber when bernard goldberg came out with "Bias" a book about how left the media is, Al Franken was brought on to debate his book, and Franken basically picked apart numerous points in his book, instead with Coulter it is like she is given a free pass to spew whatever she wants without opposition, because 9 times out of 10, when presented with debate she loses and loses bad.
  2. Would you want Opie and Anthony as your lawyers at a trial? What were these great facts and arguments they brought forth? It takes a long time to put bombs in a building - there are pictures of the hijackers at the airports - the news media lies - you're stupid and hate your parents, yadda yadda yadda! The documentary has a lot facts and their site has many links to the government files and major news articles. Now, their analysis and the conclusions they jump to based on these facts reeks of bullshit, but people should be able to decide that on their own and not take their opinions from some comedy radio DJs who did little or no research on the topic. So, you really take "Loose Change" seriously? Because if you do, This thread has to end sooner or later. Geez, get over "Loose Change" already. It's not as if that video is the be all end all of questions about 9/11. If Loose Change is shown to be 100% bullshit that still doesn't mean anything in the bigger picture.
  3. Stop using scientific facts in your arguments you coercive human being.
  4. There's nothing wrong with deficit spending as long as the US dollar remains strong, which it has despite the globalization of the EURO. Its cheaper to debt finance rather than equity finance. That lesson is taught in the first finance/economics class most anyone takes at any college. The US debt isnt a problem bc the dollar is strong. Consequently, bc the dollar is so strong there's going to be trade deficit. Thats just how economics work. A trade deficit, National Debt, and Strength of the Dollar are all intertwined. Which is interesting because wasn't there rumors that Saddam was going to start dealing with Euros right before the invasion? (OMG~~!!C0NSPIRACY THE0RY #4769LOLZ2006~!)
  5. Actually everyone at the Pit, the ultra-conservatives used to post here, the Current Events folder was hot, however as time went on, any debate turned into people being called "fuckheads" and when presented with any concurrent evidence it was written off as "unmitigated bullshit" if it wasn't from a source of the person's liking. Basically the board Mods got tired of every thread being turned into a "who can belittle the person of the opposite opinion the most" contest and threads kept getting closed. This wasn't exclusive to just the conservative posters, but it's not like a lot of the old liberal posters aren't gone as well or just rarely post here anymore. If you want to play the "Your Side Consists of This" "Yeah Well Your Side Consists of This" game, then I am down, however don't use it as an excuse as to why most of the conservative posters ran out of here a couple of years ago. So now you have TSM with mostly liberal posters in the CE forum, where conservative posters are naturally ganged up on due to the sheer numbers game, and then you have The Pit where it is the same thing, just reversed. It is what it is and there is nothing anyone can do about it besides everyone just using the same msboard again, but I don't see that happening anytime soon.
  6. I hope Tajiri signs some kind of deal with ECW, he was awesome back then, even before he turned crazy lightning pants heel. He was so underused and basically wasted in WWE. Sad really......
  7. Oh and the fans in Ohio were chanting, "Balls Balls whooooooooa BALLS" at his punches.
  8. Best trio of name chants was back in the day... "BALLS, AXL, SHAH" Hack Myers The Extreme "Shah" of ECW was cool, I remember the fans had me rolling as his punches brought "Shah, Shah, Shah" chants while anytime his opponent countered it was, "Shit"
  9. I liked the old old ECW theme where they used the Intro to 9 Inch Nails "Closer" followed by White Zombie's Thunder Kiss.....and it ended with the ECW logo in front of a snowy screen with Joey Styles saying "This iiiiiiiiis exteeeeeeeeeme" I have it on one of my commercial tapes. I think on the Holiday Hell Tour 95 tape.
  10. Considering Smackdown isn't even selling out the bigger arenas, I think they should considering doing the ECW/Smackdown tapings at more mid-sized places. Also, although hearing real theme music was nice, that is the least of my worries about the new ECW.
  11. Funk basically doesn't have knees anymore. I mean if you watched Beyond the Mat his knees are destroyed, and fuck, that was almost ten years ago.
  12. I am still holding out hope that eventually ECW gets its own smaller ring, tighter ropes, which would probably only happen if it got popular enough to garner it's own taping crew. Oh yeah, will a WWE-sized ring even fit inside the ECW Arena? Also I forgot did ONS last year have the smaller ring?
  13. Well last year there actually was an alternative to WWE's ECW show, and Funk didn't take the bigger pay day and did Hardcore Homecoming. I don't believe there even is a hardcore homecoming this year, so in effect he is partcipating in the only "ECW" that exists anymore.
  14. I have a Sub that has a button on it that you keep pressed in when you watch movies/tv, and pressed out for music. It's a good option and the different type of bass makes a difference.
  15. The TCM prequel looks exactly like the same movie as the remake. Hilarious.
  16. Yeah totally, I mean Funk was a given, but I am more shocked and happy that Big Show's promo didn't involve any screaming or chokeslam gestures. Just calm, cool, explanation.
  17. How was repealing the death tax a bad thing? You said you hate taxes. The GOP got rid of one. The Dems want to bring it back. Do you even read what you write? As was already pointed out (in this very thread!) Sen Feingold offered an amendment to repeal the estate tax for anything under 100 million dollars...the Republicans said no. They are not interested in cutting any taxes for the people that really need their funds. They will only cut taxes for wealthy people, thus making the tax burden on workers even greater....they also cut federal funding to states, so workers' state taxes go up as well. What is so conservative about making the vast majority of America pay heavy taxes to ensure this Big Govt and the wealthiest people have plenty? Where are you employed, justpassinby? Seems the ®'s were exposed for what their true intentions were, keep the extremely wealthy.........extremely wealthy.
  18. I truly hope that this "new" ECW tries in the future to make the ECW Arena shows special, and not just another house show on the tour. I guess the problem is without ECW having it's own tapings it is hard to make it happen.
  19. Or how about the legendary moonsault that they say he used to to in training? . Of course he weighed a lot less back then.
  20. Funk's promo on ecw.com is pretty hilarious too.
  21. After all the activity going on in the last couple of weeks, I am not so sure that ECW is going to be the "C" show....it might just end up being the "B" show, that is until some people behind the scenes don't like that fact too much and pull the plug.
  22. Well we already know how Heyman's interest in Rey Jr. turns out (if you read the Smackdown Spoilers) And I wish people would stfu about Taz getting pwned. Look, if Lawler threw a legit punch without Taz knowing then it reflects on him being a piece of shit that threw a sucker punch and exposed the business and a fellow worker, and if the MORE LIKELY scenario happened which is that Taz wanted to take a stiff shot and it was all just part of the show, then there are a few people in this thread that just got worked over hard,
  23. I think John Stewart laid out a pretty good case to disspell the "gay marriage means polygamy too" myth. Someone posted the clip in this thread already. Watch it.
  24. I like how she flat out ignores Bush's whoring of 9/11 families during the 2004 election. That was perfectly ok, but as soon as the 9/11 families who don't fall lock and step with the President speak up, they are politicizing everything.....
  25. The spot was botched considering it was supposed to be an arabian face-buster, but it wasn't like he still didn't hit the chair on Cena. To me it actually looked like Sabu knew in mid-air flight that he was too far away to hit the move, and kind of changed it while in-flight.
