  1. Wha? That's like saying Tom Brady's completion percentage is inflated because he plays for a good team, or has a good arm.... Aaron Rodgers % numbers are inflated because he is mobile.....
  2. Your looking for e meme that isn't there...show me where I am a "liberal"....You speak of a TP/Con "base" as a majority. That is not correct - they can think they are, they can think the hold the mantle of the Republic but they don't. They had a false positive of the 2012 election cycle - but since then they have had the A$$ kicked. "is the failure of the Boehner-McConnell Congress to deliver" What exactly - were they to deliver?
  3. I think you are confusing the "TP" as the larger base here....might want to mix in some new reading materials There are not enough TP/Cons to create the "majority" you speak of/desire/pine for....
  4. Really...just the left? Tell me you don't actually believe what you just wrote....
  5. The $42M just goes to the massive-massive waste of time and money involvement in the Middle East is. We have spent trillions - just this century - on the folly of the ME. If we had spent this money on self reliant energy strategy we woud not care what goes on there - and likewise - our presence would not provide angst for the locals. The power of the military industrial complex - the answer to everything is military action.
  6. FWIW: My then girlfriend from the eighties got in a fight at a Bills-Pats in Foxborough - she was (is) a tough chick.
  7. If you knew the details of CB's sexual assault - and consequent jail term.....
  8. I almost think DS wrote this with his tongue in cheek - it is so over the top - and Boston wonders why they are hated - can't remember Bills writers being like this in SB years.. To me the biggest change is the Bills ownership - which is left out of this conversation. For 50 years we had Ralph - who bless his heart - didn't move Bills. But he was arguably the worst owner both in terms of performance and management. The two guys who brought him to the top - Saban and Polian - essentially quit because of RW. That ended last year and now we have TP - willing to install top shelf management and coaching - willing to spend on players. The RW era could be predictably bad - but that is past and can't be a predictor of the future.
  9. Seeing what the locals are saying....currently they are rattling on non-stop....about deflategate....how Brady was framed, how the report was wrong, how the physics doesn't work....holy crap do these guys have a persecution complex. The rest of the world has moved on....but its more fun being wronged I guess....
  10. The whole hike seems completely overblown....a rate hike from 0 to 1 percent is inconsequential - still pretty much free money - rates hikes won't have an appreciable effect until 3-4 percent. Symbolism....?
  11. As usual...you deflect...would your comments be the same if the woman were Islamic?
  12. So = sounds like this board would approve of say - maybe this woman was Islamic instead of Christian - and should would only issue marriage licenses if they followed Sharia law....or an Islamic judge doing the same...or a Jewish judge not following sentencing guidelines but going old testament....of an Islamic policeman....or if I held public office and my "religion" said......and please spare me that BO is not following immigration laws - 2 wrongs don't make a right
  13. This is what I love - maybe giving no facts is better than giving complete falsehoods....
  14. More savvy - how? He cut an expensive aging vet they didn't want to bring to camp - except for the owner - in the first place.... Fred gets butthurt - shocker
  15. http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/st-charles-county-woman-pulls-gun-on-teens-in-park/article_712f1e3e-a949-5024-bd78-4eced003d289.html Unfortunately the kids were not armed for self defense....
  16. http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/09/01/us-usa-gaymarriage-kentucky-idUSKCN0R13S220150901 Figgered most of you would be all over this typical public worker - not working, can't be fired, making $80k plus bennies.....
  17. I just gave you some of examples right off today's headlines that show the give and take between individual rights and citizenry. Guns, gay marriage, taxes, foriegn policy....and in typical right wing/TP fashion you have responded with a vague - one line - idealism. Whittle it down to gun rights. The USA has the most liberal, most individualistic rights, for any comparable country. These individual freedoms also come with the highest gun violence rates - by a factor of around 10 compared to our equals. I used to own guns but don't now - but when I did - if there were registration laws, licenses etc that would be required that would have helped slow gun violence - I would have been ok with that - as i think gun violence is so draining on our country, Every gun incident - probably costs the taxpayers millions in police, judicial and incarceration costs - let alone the societal damage. But the attitude of the more ardent gun owners - is individual rights trump all else - at all costs. Individualism is not free - I ust gave you an example.Seems to me the "individuals" are unwilling to make even reasonable investments to being a citizen. Again - typical right wing one liners full of ideals - no examples
  18. This is what I think is much of the angst in our union right now...the loss of the concept of being a citizen. Seems nobody wants to pay taxes, no one wants to give an inch on gun rights, no one wants to follow Scotus decisions (at least in Kentucky because it is against their personal beliefs, people don't want to let others get married - even if it has no effect on them - they don't want to sell them flowers. People are for war as long as they don't have to send their kids or even pay for it, people don't want to move forward... The concept of I am not going to give an inch for this country to get better...I just want mine - and don't come looking for anything...and while your at it - get off my lawn - and THIS is what makes this country great has won out....what a wonderful world.... Bravo!
  19. Said in another thread - friends have a "closeness" to someone at OBD. Talked him to recently - said Bills all along only wanted to carry 2 qb's + practice squad
