Youre right....my bad.

So go to the bathroom and release. Jeez...last time we bitched they moved too quick. Now we B word that they are taking their time and being thorough? Being thorough.....Dont want to do THAT, especially considering the huge success of the last two coach hirings.

The more the merrier. Let em bring in everyone. Last time we complained they pulled the trigger too quick. We cant now complain that they are being thorough. But then again...this is TSW.

Buh....buh....buh....that was.......DIFFERENT! Amazing what a three second Google yields.

The flaw in your argument is that the Executive doesnt wire tap under "all and any circumstances." Call me nuts, but when the man who has done a ton of damage to us the last fifteen years says he's gunning for us again, Id listen...and maybe raise our guard a bit. Give the govt. rights to run roughshod over everything? No. But there needs to be a balance here. Revise FISA, institute emergency powers with Congress' approval..something. I dont claim to have the answer, but do ANYTHING but go on with the status quo. And PJ......"A compromise" with OBL. Good idea, Chamberlain.

Anyone whining about wiretaps or TSA security today? If Bush and his cronies were smart, they would pounce on this for all the good PR it would be worth to them. But they wont.

OK, Mick...heres my lame response. First of all, just becuase someone served in the military, that should not give him or her free reign to say whatever they want. Theres been a lot of that from the left...how one CANNOT critiscise Murtha's comments, because...well...."he's a HERO!!!" Thats crap. Its crap for Murtha to think he can say whatever he wants because of his service and its crap for the Dems to use him as some kind of indestructible mouthpiece for their cause. And of course...its hypocritical considering every time Bush stands in front of an American flag, a military symbol or conjures up 9/11, the left goes NUTS. Now....Ive only recently become aware of the character assasination of Murtha thats going on. Thats wrong. But Mick..how is it different that whats going on with Judge Alito? Senator Kennedy called him every name in the book last week, with no factual basis to do so. So had every left leaning website. Thats different? Its lame on both sides. Try to realize that just once. Finally...MY assertion that Murtha deserves to be criticised is NOT in connection with those who are looking to tarnish or question his war record. It comes DIRECTLY from his comments. I think you have me confused with someone who sympathizes with those folks. I dont. Im speaking (and disparaging) HIS RECENT defeatist comments about an immediate pullout and the state of the military. Thats all I was referring to.

Smoke another one, Bob.

I think MM hurt himself with the departure more than if he went with staying and even if he would be having another bad season. Nobody begrudges someone who leaves a sh------- job. But NOBODY likes an employee who quits just because things MIGHT get bad. He lost his coaches, but the new power structure was days old. Not giving it a second to try and work doesnt reflect well on Mularkey. You may point to Belichick bolting the Jets for NE very quickly to give an example of another coach who did the same thing. But that situation is a bit different, becuase Belichick had a relationship with Bob Kraft and the NE job lined up before he quit on the Jets. MM didnt choose another job. He chose not to work instead of facing a challenge. That reflects really poor on him.

Funny...I havent heard Murtha's name for weeks. And Bush (and everyone else) who critiqued his comments tripped over themselves to praise the man's service. Ill get to the rest later....Im working, believe it or not. If I dont feed these hogs by 1, they get pissy.

Now its the "oh, he was lucky" talk to spin around the issue of whay Jouron has done. Amazing. ALL this talk could have been applied to one Bill Belichick after his stint in Cleveland. All of it. Maybe if Jouron wore a headband you folks would like him more.

You forgot to say "If the Bill dont do what I THINK..."

Fast and loose with the facts, soundbytes and spin. Save that crap for PPP, ok?

"Sherman as Bills HC means JP becomes Favre." Comical.

Hate to bust youre bubble, but neither Fox, nor Lewis, not Weiss is available right now.

What would the reaction be if Bill Frist made such a comment? BE HONEST.

Please....what Mick is doing is NOTHING. Ive seen a few interviews around the dial and comments where liberals and black leaders DEFENDED Nagin and validated what he said because it....get this..."opens a valid dialouge of race relations in the U.S." So basically weve come down to this......A white man in the public eye does as much as says "black folks have darker skin than white folks" and he is outcast by society. Completely and thoroughly. But a black man in the public eye, even an elected official, can say the most hateful, racist crap imaginable and its considered "valid dialouge on the issue of race." As CTM said earlier...."UN!@#$INGBELIEVABLE."

Im talking about if we tried to hire BB after CLEVELAND.

Because you didnt state that it wasnt, dumbass. I may not have the intellectual acumen that so many do around here, but Im also not a !@#$ing mindreader.

Geez....we all KNOW that once a coach gets fired, he NEVER gets hired somehwere else and enjoys success. Based on the lahhjik in this thread, we would have "puked" at the sight of Bill Belichick if he came here after he coached Cleveland. Same goes for Marv Levy. The sh-- you see on TSW makes me wonder if a good lot of the posters even WATCH the NFL.

It gets worse....Nagin stated that "I don't care what people are saying Uptown or wherever they are. ", implying the white populace uptown. Stop and think about this....an elcted official publicly stated that he DOESNT CARE about the opinions, thoughts and concerns of a significant portion of those he swore to serve. It defies logic...and one of the most reprehensible things Ive ever heard stated by an elected official. Im wondering if such statements can be considered a violation of his oath of office and proceedings to remove him should commence. And oh yeah....Nagin used GOD to back up all his statements. There goes that argument (Robertson). And one more thing....LA's post above is one of the all-time best on PPP.

Damn....you can add in that the whole usage of the example of a "Republican Attack Machine" is just a stupid retort all together. By using this line of reasoning, he implies that there is not the same piece of weaponry along HIS front. that the reasons why the Dems cant get anything together is not because of their own problems,. but becuase of "the man" keeping them down....that its someone elses fault. Wait....thats the MO of the left in its entirety....that its "someone else' fault Im (we) are like this." OK....I think Im starting to get it........

Murtha's idea of pulling out all the troops NOW, dovetailed with his criticism of the military that basically states they are inept is a "half way decent" position and one which should not be subject to scorn? I wont even get into your just obnoxious premise that what Nagin said isnt as bad because he's an elected official. That makes what he said WORSE.

Rule #2: If there is no true "debate", label those speaking as "racist", anyways. See.....it works either way. Im sorry for being so wrong here...maybe we should get back to some good ole Catholic-bashing! Why address the misgivings of the rest of the world, when there are good Christ worshipping folks to get on?

There it is! Rule #1 from the Liberal Playbook of Debate: When you cant come up with a good retort, label your opposition "racist." I mean, how DARE I question a religion that wants to see me and everyone like me dead!!??!!
