I don't think backing candidates that a growing number of Americans agree with is going to lose them any votes. That's not the "far left". That's people who don't like Bush's policies (i.e. the majority of Americans).

http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/08/09/dem...ries/index.html "Defeat-ocrats"? The RNC has been taken over by middle schoolers. Time to pull back out those "Sore Loserman" signs from 6 years ago.

Doesn't 1996 count?

There is a time when the Republican Party dedicates itself to cutting spending and reducing the federal deficit: Whenever a Democrat is in the White House.

The Question is definitely coming close to being turned into a goofy sidekick.

From CNN. Teeh-hee.

Nobody's going to argue that only market forces should control wages? Anyone? Anyone?

Please tell me Johnson actually stands a chance of winning.

I saw Kinky on 60 Minutes not too long ago. People say they want people to run for office who are honest and speak their mind. The problem is that people who fit that criteria usually don't seem to have anything else going for them.

Yes, but they need to really shake things up, not go back to the Kirk era and rehash it with different actors. It will come off like the Brady Bunch and Leave it to Beaver movies. My bet is that they'll create a new ship and crew just for the new movie.

Was Lance Bass the one that dressed up like the cowboy, the sailor, or the construction worker?

Cat puns, henchmen out the ass instead of a sole burglar working for her own ends, and periodic alliances with supervillains to kill Bats?! Keep in mind I'm comparing this to a Halle Berry movie, so yeah.

On a related note... I was ignored by my parents as a child, and basically use the internet to make up for it by getting attention for myself (negative or positive) from complete strangers.

This is just like the "You know how I know you're gay?" bit from 40 Year Old Virgin, except only about 1/10000th as funny.

Nobody reads NR anymore. I'll admit I used to read it in college, but their writing has no substance beyond "here's why so and so is a liberal".

Stan Bush looks like that guy from "The Warriors" that killed Cyrus. Still, better than when Dirk Diggler sang it.

Enterprise got a lot better the last 2 years, thanks to Manny Coto.[/Trek apologist mode]

I haven't seen "Clerks 2" yet, but this entire "porch monkey" conversation amuses me to no end. The term was a favorite of mine during the "Call White People Obscure Ethnic Slurs That Don't Actually Apply to Them" game of my misspent youth.

Yeah, but you said that was the one that was definitely rejected, right?

There was an interview with Abrams in TV Guide this week where he basically reveals nothing. As tight-lipped as he's being with his plans, I'll take everything I read online about casting and plot with a grain of salt. In other words, I'm calling 100% bullshit on the "Matt Damon is playing Captain Kirk" rumor. From what it sounds like in the interview, they've yet to set any concrete plans as to what it'll even be about. Abrams' script for Superman may have been too-Matrixy, but he's done some great work in the past (i.e. the first 2 seasons of "Alias" and "Lost"), and some not-so-great work ("Felicity") that causes me to think that the Superman script was just a fluke (even though it did have a few good ideas in it). People shouldn't judge the guy's abilties based on some uncomfirmed speculation and a 3-year-old script review from "Aint It Cool News." In other words, I'm going to need more info before I start bad-mouthing this thing.

Begs the question: "Do you even watch your own network???"

Oh might Isis, welcome to DC canon.

Owned.

Me too!

3 villians AND a Gwen Stacy story? This movie sounds way too crowded.
