I almost never see any conservative on this board acknowledge that it even COULD be anything but a failure. Interesting...

lol 0% chance of that happening

annnddd....done

right or wrong...tragic or not...most people don't care simply b/c it is still impossible for anyone to imagine being personally violated

I'm watching a bit of it too...it's pretty funny. Alternating from people standing up saying "we just have to" to "95% of us will vote for it and we all hate it"...Rs and Ds saying both of these (for different reasons) too not partisan on these feelings

It's going to be up or down and going to pass. Too messy within the time frame to attach anything new.

It'll be through the house in a few hours and signed by tomorrow morning

you should just post everything as 3rd

Now now, we've been over this, the government is not a household and the debt ceiling is not the roof.

I like my women like I like my Bills. Ringless and beaten down by decades of losing.

Whoever the Bills hire ... he will not make the playoffs.

I'm going to laugh when we fire Jim Tressel. Then I'll just force myself to become a Panthers fan.

Since when has Russ not been in charge of the team?

Praise the lord

I think it will run into more trouble than people think. He'll get best actor, and I'm a huge fan of his he's my favorite actor ever...but I actually think Denzel should at least compete for that this year which is something nobody even talks about and he may not even get a nod...and they may give the picture to Le Terrible the Movie.

Just saw Le Mis. I know pretty much everybody disagrees I've seen give opinions on here or anywhere else...but my and my gf hated it. I was shocked I don't even see the appeal or how it got the buzz it got. It's absolutely terrible imo...my gf loves musicals and she hated it too.

and for the record the millennials are in greater numbers and will enter their working prime about the same time the boomers start dying off.

Government is government, not family, and not business although more like a business than a family. Next time your CEO goes to the board and announces he paid off debt but lost money lets see how persuasive that is. In any event we've been in debt basically every year for our 200 year existence, and still had good times and bad regardless...not many families I know are like that. Nor can they print their own money and then tax and demand the tax be paid in that currency. And of course if a family went the bank for a loan and showed that budget the bank would laugh at them...when the US and Japan (two of the countries with the worst debt) issue bonds they're among the most popular in the world...people almost pay us to hold their money. We can't just say "!@#$ it" but we certainly should not say the government is a household and it's time to do whatever it takes to pay everything off. We can implement austerity that would stall growth... the best solution to our problems...and see how that works...if we want to be the CEO losing money. But that's probably not the best route. Hence, some new revenue (we're at a huge low), some plan to get things in order and provide some stability in the coming decade (real cuts of course), and IMO some smart stimulus now to get help us get moving. A little shot of caffeine to get us off the coach and some confidence in our ability to govern and whala...nobody is coming for to foreclose on the Capital Building. It's really not the huge disaster some like to make it out to be, just a problem in need of a plan that is well within our reach.

IDK my grandmother is authentic Italian and her sauce is sweet also. She has a non-sweet sauce (which IMO is amazing) but her go-to sauce is sweet (which is good but not my style). Anyway IMO Buffalo pizza is sweet sauce...at least what I've had. Oh man, you are def. in rural NC...that's sad. I spent some time in the triangle plenty of options there. Closer to the mountains you get the more you might as well be in WV.

Well...depends on how we define "cheap"....but in any event I'm not crazy about sweet sauce and don't drool over WNY pizza like others.

Personally I'm in favor of dairy products staying affordable. 1949 milk policy is probably not well suited for our current situation. Not a big milk drinker but I like a cheap pizza.

Yes, he's that selfless. You could learn a lot from him.

Agreed. CJ is explosion...if he can't explode 100% on a carry he should come out for a second and then go back in...

A win would be disastrous. After this train wreck of a season we deserve as high a pick as possible and if we ended up 13 it would be a complete disaster. There should be back ups started to "evaluate what we have" and Thigpen should start and this order should come from the top b/c quite frankly for the organization that's what is best.
