  1. "Core Values Fiscal Responsibility Constitutionally Limited Government Free Markets" Alarming the people in high power like Reid and others describe them as extremist. With goals like this? Gross overspending and government control are the only extremes I see going on.
  2. Nice to see the Sabres pretty much deliver the KO punch to the Leafs. Not a done deal yet and don't want to jinx but good luck in the playoffs! Now if it were the Bills I would never mention playoffs until it was official.
  3. shhh..don't try making sense. WE WANT TO HATE EVIL CORPS.! They are evil I know because John Stewart and movies say so. Only Obama and his Dems can save us from them.
  4. Marks posts have become my guide to upcoming flix. Needs to start his own website. He could attach a message board to it for people to talk more crap about movies. Heh..just what we need. Another time sucker.
  5. Especially to her. If it were Russell or the last girl it would be ok
  6. Not so much the cities themselves but the government and unions that squeezed the life out of them.
  7. Can't stand Indian food. Can imagine Africa being much better to be honest. Think about it, how many African restaurants do you see around? Maybe the odd north African joint around but most of that stuff is awful as well. And the contestants don't "venture" by chance. I'm sure we are probably seeing upside of these places. CBS isn't going to put them in bad areas. Anyway, I hope your not trying to draw a parallel between the US and those two crap holes of the world. Obviously we have our bad spots but isn't pervasive.
  8. I don't know. Going by everything they show while in India and Africa, there is nothing good about those places. Dirty air. Dirty cities. Stinky people. Bad food. Animals running around crapping every where. Poverty and so on. Forget it.
  9. They are socialist. They also are corrupt. Expect us to live in serfdom while they steal whenever they can. I guess its just coincidence that GE was the biggest contributer to the community organizer's campaign.
  10. Not sad they're gone. They always need to pair with other teams to advance. Luke was a whiner.
  11. Rude or honest? Since when is a communist outfit like China a place anyone would like to stay?
  12. Bit more http://hotair.com/archives/2011/03/25/obamas-favorite-ceo-gets-ge-out-from-paying-any-us-taxes/
  13. Flat tax would be nice. No exemptions or loopholes. Imagine the human cry from all the IRS workers? All the tax lawyers and accountants would have to find something else to do.
  14. This part I agree with you and it bothers me. I hate the fact that companies can lobby for special advantages creating a unleveled playing field . Just another instance of government intervention screwing things up. Don't get me wrong pbills, I have no problem with the concept of taxation. I realize its a necessary evil, like government, to maintain the countries security and vital services like Police and fire. But like everything else, it gets abused. Percentage of tax gets so big it kills motivation for both business and individuals. Once this happens we are in trouble because the strength of the country is not the government but the citizens. Ok off my soapbox
  15. Have no numbers to back it up but I'm thinking the cops should be worrying more about people f'ing with their cell phones while driving. Have the feeling that is or will cause more accidents because there are way more people doing that than driving impaired.
  16. Who knows what the real story is. Even taking the article at face value, anyone who can avoid getting their money confiscated is a folk hero to me. If its a form of corporate welfare, at least GE provides jobs and income to thousands of individuals and businesses. More than I can say for the entitlement class who just take and take.
  17. Great idea. Still, censoring a app that is only relaying information is a terrible idea. In reality, how many drunk drives are even going to use this app?
  18. That settles it. I was thinking of becoming jewish but no way now.
  19. Rob, on the other hand, thinks things through to the very end. Like he explained last night why he tolerates the lazy girls. He knows they suck. But he also knows he can easily manipulate them and likes the thought of going up against one of them in the end. Their laziness will be ammo when he pleads his case for votes. He's also smart enough to keep Phillip around as long as possible because its takes the target off him. And he's a more than obvious target. Really interesting version this year. Just think how great it would have been if Russel tweaked his game enough to hang around a while?
  20. I guess the mistake the company made is they just should have laid her off outright. If finances dictate you get rid of a few people the you has to do it. No one is entitled to a job unless you own the company. Problem is that brings a entire new set of problems, pressures that the average employee knows nothing of. Taking you acquaintance situation at face value it looks like the company was weasely in its execution. Not necessaries wrong in its intent. Problem is most liberals(not saying you are) use something like this to indict the entire capitalist, free enterprise system or they cry union. Thing is they ignore all the great companies out there that treat their employees great. In our little company, we like to treat our employees as well as we can because its so hard to find good ones. I think this is universal in this country so generally speaking, it doesn't make sense that businesses treat employees unfairly. That is if they want to hold on to them.
  21. This is almost exactly what I was telling my wife last night. The only ones that seem to know how to play the game and compete a little are the ones they vote off. Like you, I think Rob will eat these lame brains up when they merge.
  22. I think if mine were molars I might have had mine yanked out. It really is tough that you have one on each going on. Good luck with my chewing on the sides method. The price sounds great. For me I was almost at that for one. When its all done I think you are going to be happy. I'm so glad I don't have to deal with bridges or plates.
