  1. I wont even argue that point. But how has it affected the US' stature in the technology and science sector?
  2. Im sorry, which candidate did they endorse in this ad?
  3. I was speaking throughout the Country's history...I beleive I spelled that out. Please tell me how the influence of religious fundamentalism has slowed technical innovation in the USA over the last ten years. So in your mind a religious man or woman is incabable of having the intelligence needed to keep the USA at the top of the work rankings vis a vis tecnical innovation? Is that what youre saying? And also, please provide examples of how, since the fall of the Berlin wall, US technical innovation has slowed and how that is tied to the RISE of religious fundamentalism in the USA.
  4. [liberals] What a bigoted, intolerant, backwards ad. Clearly it shows how the ignorant knuckedraggers in the Church seek ultimate power to force THEIR beliefs and values on others!!!!! They should shut up and get with the program!!! [\liberals]
  5. Oh my gawd.....a hardcore liberal leftist is up in the polls in a hardcore, liberal state!!!
  6. Yet, somehow the God fearing nation the USA was/is managed to become the world leaders in scientific and technological innovation throughout its lifetime. Take your bigotry and intolerance somewhere else, please.
  7. Love getting lectured about how much I "hate women" by the same people who called Sarah Palin a "c-nt", a "waitress" and put her on covers of magazines in uncompromising positions. Then did the same to Bachmann and most recently, called Mia Love a House !@#$.
  8. Tim Tebow. Probably the one guy with worse mechanics than Fitz. Good idea! But hey...he's intense on TV and Fitz isnt. You know what....screw it...as long as he wears a headset and gloves and leaves his headband at home, we are all set.
  9. Not to defend the blowhard, but Trump does not exactly "skate through life." Underneath the clown exterior, hes a brilliant businessman and developer. Almost a shame he has become such a caricature of himself.
  10. The law is one thing, but that doesnt mean political bias cant affect your job. You work for a hard core left or right leaning guy and you swing the other way.....you trust him to be on the up and up next time promotion time comes around? I dont.
  11. Hey did you see all the articles covering this in the MSM today? Yeah, me neither. Also...did you see all the puff pieces about the bayonettes meme that Obama screwed up, kind of like the Big Bird and binders ones? Yeah........me neither.
  12. Call me nuts, I like it right where it is. Outside of the bathroom lines, everything else about the game day experience at the Ralph absolutely rules. Im a Mets fan and I thought I hated Shea. That is. until they built an overpriced corporate monstrosity next door with all the so-called 'amenities.' It sucks...and its four times the price.

  14. The sports landscape in ALL sports is littered with big time free agents that took a long time to settle in to their new teams and produce at a high level. You gotta give Mario more time.
  15. Im in this camp. WAAAAYYYYY too early to call him "the problem" or "the cancer."
  16. I say too bad. Youre gonna get on the nice lady in the Principal's office for putting a little CHRISTMAS Tree on her desk? Then deal with this. I beleive its called......KARMA.
  17. Jarrett representing the US in talks with Iran. Why? Becuase she was born there. OK, good for SOMETHING. But that makes her a statesman? !@#$ing Amateur Hour.
  18. This thread is gay and retarded.
  19. This is ridiculous. If a closer in baseball strikes out FIVE in a tie game the last two innings, but on the last batter, the manager calls for a hanging curveball and it gets blasted to Mars and the game is blown, do we say "well, he had a good game, its not his fault?" Fits blew the game. He threw the ball...a terrible throw....when FOOTBALL 101 calls for a running play.
  20. Ridiculous comment. Former riders came about against HIM. So they went after HIM. If you tell the cops a neighbor two doors down broke into your house, the cops are supposed to go after the neighbor three and four doors down, too?
  21. Any questions? http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/more-sports/zone-lance-armstrong-bully-downfall-article-1.1188512
  22. That is an complete falsehood. The recent revelations have resulted in riders being fired, team managers quitting and/or being fired and sponsors dropping out. Every rider who testified now faces sanctions or bans. The ramifications are far and wide reaching now, WAY beyond Lance. And he did not "just do what everyone was doing." Lance was the central focal point of the entire doping ring. He wasnt just another rider playing along, not just another good soldier. He was the boss.
  23. LOL. No he wasnt. He was tested according to the same rules everyone else was. Oh sir...how naive you are.... http://velonews.comp...-but-how_261616 http://velonews.comp...s-flawed_261599 Furthermore, I wont go too far into the "science" of it, but a doper is "glowing" (ie would test positive) about one day a month. So a little intelligence about when a tester would knock on your door is all it took. Thats it. Also, the idea of taking EPO is to bring your hemocrit levels (red blood cell count) to a spot juuuust below where you would trigger a positive. So if its at say, 43 naturally and a level of 50 would trigger a test, you bring it up to 49. Bingo....you get a performance advantage and dont trigger a positive. There are reports that racers like Bjarne Riis and others who raced before the tests came had levels that were in the mid 60s. Their blood must have been like thick red mud. The "never tested postive" claim is a scam. Silly comment. The evidence is now overwhelming. The number of people lining up to testify is as well. The sport is being shaken to its core. This AM, two major sponsors dropped out. Sponsors who have been in pro cycling for decades. Are they "haters" too? Lance is not just another doper...hes THE doper. If you still believe IN him and want to accept him with his sins, fine. You can do that. Some of MY favorite pros are ex dopers....Riis, Pantani, Valverde, etc. But one can no longer ignore his sins, say they did not exist and cast aspersions on those who have truthfully brought them to light.
