  1. Sammy is not 6'-5" with a 9' wingspan like Marshall and Jeffries who make a lot of cutler's questionable throws look good.
  2. Heck no. Put him on a team without Marshall and Jeffries and you won't like what you've got.
  3. Harry probably wants to "enhance" the bill with some taxes. green energy stuff and maybe high speed rail lines from the mexican border to various red states.
  4. You realize that of the 300 bills already mentioned that have stopped at Reid's desk include a number of them with Democrat support in the house, right? Obama hasn't asked Harry to move on any of them which makes Obama = to Reid in terms of obstructing them.
  5. That might inspire an Obama Haiku thread.
  6. No doubt there was a strong negative force against Dems. Republicans have had a pro econimic growth, fiscally responsible and strong foreign polict agenda, but the media doesn't report it much so the NY Times pretends that such an agenda doesn't exist. Now we'll see if the R's can govern responsibly, by the numbers and try to do what's best for America.
  7. I'm not talking about the Harvard's of the world. Good solid schools in this area for example Public Universities of Illinois, Michigan, Iowa, Indiana, Kentucky, Wisconsin, Miami of Ohio or private schools like Dayton, Butler and others graduating lots of kids who are getting good jobs. Our subdivision is full of kids getting jobs and many $50K - $60K+ right out of school. My son is at one of these schools now, had 8 interviews for co-op jobs last month (all paid $15-$20 an hour) and is expecting his 4th co-op offer from those 8 interviews before the end of the week.
  8. Bruce Rauner is about to throw a giant wrench into the Illinois Democrat machine. Rauner's going to win. This is an historic event in Illinois politics electing a Republican businessman with no political experience as Governor. Bravo!!!! This will be fun to watch in the coming years.
  9. College is certainly not a slam dunk but going to a better school and getting better grades, taking advantage of co-op and internship programs that the better schools offer plus potentially being recruited by top companies that interview at the betters schools can make a huge difference.
  10. Just their right? My guess is they're going door to door and sending them or driving the to the polls.
  11. Once again the big bad private sector is to blame. People borrowed money to get a college education under the assumption that they would get a good job. Now the greedy private sector which is practicing cost control in a slow economic period is choosing not to hire people because they put a higher priority on making a profit than they do in performing their civic duty to hire more people.
  12. There's something wrong with any elected official that wants to stay in office until the age of 82. Says Reid has no life outside of politics. Sad.
  13. Clearly the people's right to vote should be augmented by government's ability to cast votes for people that don't exercise their right to do so.
  14. Exactly. Call me cynical but my guess is that some money changed hands to get Tahmooressi freed.
  15. Obama has sent the military because in his mind this is one of the only good uses of our armed forces. Kinda like NASA's Muslim outreach. Next I expect the department of energy to start recruiting illegal immigrants to build wind farms on land recently confiscated by the government in the path of the would be Keystone pipeline.
  16. A giant saw to separate Mexico from the US would be a worthy investment.
  17. Liberals usually can't win the argument which is why so few are here.
  18. But but but those bills are part of a radical tea party agenda.
  19. Makes you wonder how someone could say it given the political risk. It has to be at her core, that's the only explanation.
  20. Illinois is such a dirty state....Calibration error, yeah right. Dems here are desperate to re-elect Governor Quinn. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/10/22/calibration-error-changes-gop-votes-to-dem-in-illinois-county/
  21. It's funny here, but in the real world where many voters take their head out of the sand every 2 or 4 years, this kind of crap is effective unfortunately.
  22. Herein lies the liberal problem. Liberals believe that the government should have the right to take earned property from one person and give it to others. Liberals don't like that our country was set up as a higher risk higher reward society and was done so specifically to escape tyrannical governments. Liberals believe that the rich are hoarding money and preventing the economy from growing. Liberals believe that a certain standard of living is a birthright for all American people including millions that entered the country without being invited. Liberals believe that our constitution is flawed and should be changed and if there is not support to change it then it should be ignored. Liberals believe that some people should be given preference over others. It's all bunk.
  23. He can play. Might be a better overall back than Spiller. Yes I said that.
  24. An insult to over 300 million Americans.
