  1. Reacting? No just exposing the fact that she's backed by a poltically motivated organization that will continue to tug on the heartstrings of fools.
  2. Sheehan arrested I knew this would happen. Two days ago her promoter was arrested in Manhatten. Somebody in her organization must have thought, sh--, it should have been her. So they made it happen. If anyone seriously believes this is just a grieving mother....
  3. NO was largely run by liberals, not conservatives. Government fails, and then people look to government to solve the problem.
  4. I'll try. Barriers to entry in the industry. Not just any one can start up an oil company and become dominent by offering a better product or a lower price. Oil companies are not monopolies exactly. Because they positioned themselves way back when, I think they operate more like oligarchies, like a part of government that's controled by only a few. I guess the politics of the situation cause concern for price gouging. Still no one complains when the soft drink companies make obscene profits.
  5. See, I thought the funny part was "Plus, when the god-awful French are done fixing it up, we can easily invade and take it back again."
  6. Major Real Estate Transaction in Louisiana.. President Bush Sells Louisiana Back to the French BATON ROUGE, LA. – The White House announced today that President Bush has successfully sold the state of Louisiana back to the French at more than double its original selling price of $11,250,000. "This is a bold step forward for America," said Bush. "And America will be stronger and better as a result. I stand here today in unity with French Prime Minister Jack Chiraq, who was so kind to accept my offer of Louisiana in exchange for 25 million dollars cash." The state, ravaged by Hurricane Katrina, will cost hundreds of billions of dollars to rebuild. "Jack understands full well that this one's a 'fixer upper,'" said Bush. "He and the French people are quite prepared to pump out all that water, and make Louisiana a decent place to live again. And they've got a lot of work to do. But Jack's assured me, if it's not right, they're going to fix it." The move has been met with incredulity from the beleaguered residents of Louisiana. "Shuba-pie!" said New Orleans resident Willis Babineaux. "Frafer-perly yum, kom drabby sham!" However, President Bush's decision has been widely lauded by Republicans. "This is an unexpected but brilliant move by the President," said Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist. "Instead of spending billions and billions and billions of dollars rebuilding the state of Louisiana, we've just made 25 million dollars in pure profit." "This is indeed a smart move," commented Fox News analyst Brit Hume. "Not only have we stopped the flooding in our own budget, we've made money on the deal. Plus, when the god-awful French are done fixing it up, we can easily invade and take it back again."
  7. I think Terry Bradshaw was 1-13 his first year. Steve Young sat the bench for years behind Montana. Stauback sat for a couple of years before getting his chance, and that was after serving four years in the Navy. My point is, there have just not been many young inexperienced QB's that have had success right out of the gate. Arguably, Marino was one. If JP does develope into something good, will this defense still be around? It's an aging bunch.
  8. There are many refineries on the Texas coast. If it hits there, watch the price of gas continue back up to new record highs. There is nothing funny about it.
  9. Got to dissagree. The biased double standard of the press transends any personal relationship. I think some in the press grew to like Reagan personally, even though they couldn't stand him politically. They cut him no slack. Meanwhile Clinton could have murdered people and gotten away with it.
  10. I guess this was to be expected, basically a very young and inexperienced QB. Still no interceptions though. And I think Tampa may be back, and for real again.
  11. Actually, I did not. When he made it, the television announcers said it was his first. That would probably change my humble opinion, as if that matters.
  12. If Losman does get the ball back, I think he should give it to Peters. Peters may not ever get another one.
  13. Unless somehow these two teams meet in the super bowl. But the Bills should know how to beat him.
  14. Yeah, and he also got his nose bloodied by one of Magic Johnson's body guards before one of the super bowls. bad form.
  15. Overall, probably a good arangement for both teams. I think Bledsoe will have a good year with the team he now has around him, but will still take more than the average number of sacks. He has an interesting group of receivers now, including Peerless Price, who didn't suit up yesterday--still learning the Dallas offence I guess. Losman looked very good for his first game and did some things Bledsoe couldn't do here. I also like our back ups in Buffalo now. Of, course, it was just week one.
