  1. What will raising taxes on the top 1% fix? Or will it just allow us all to have a warm fuzzy?
  2. I buy Country Crock.
  3. If the GOP hadn't shut down the government, Obama would have had this fixed by now.
  4. Didn't Hugh Grant get in trouble for some kind of black box in his car several years ago?
  5. Have they never seen Junior? No one else read it, why should she?
  6. All updates, no matter how small need some level of testing. Doesn't matter if it's hardware or software. What's the first thing anyone does after they replace a light bulb?
  7. That sounds like an assignment for Bill.
  8. Did she really say that they only tested this for two weeks? If that's true, that's ridiculous beyond belief. Someone should ask to see their test procedures for this turd.
  9. Whew, good thing the govt is no longer shut down. I have trouble imagining a more worthless collection of individuals than the ones that make up the US Congress.
  10. You're like a 4 year old challenging his parents about brushing his teeth. Eventually that kind of challenge will earn you a timeout...or worse.
  11. I'm not too crazy about any of the X1-X3 movies. First class was the best yet, but Xmen is comic that screams character overload. I'm very skeptical of introducing time travel though. That is rarely done well.
  12. Don't !@#$ with Carol. - Daryl
  13. It's the GOP's duh Huffington Post Howard Dean: GOP Also To Blame For Botched Obamacare Rollout http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/10/24/howard-dean-gop-obamacare-rollout_n_4156952.html
  14. Clean up the flops and it might be watchable.
  15. Anyone else picturing Michael Keaton cleaning a non-existent windshield?
  16. Don't worry, healthcare is easier to manage than a website.
  17. What about the past decade makes you think that these idiots can ever work together to bring about a solution that's good for America? What was the last major piece of good for America legislation that was passed that both sides worked together to craft and had good support across party lines?
  18. Is that what should have happened when bill was passed in the first place? Most polling showed about 60% of the country was against it. MA even elected a Rep to take Kennedy's seat to block it giving the GOP a filibuster. That's about as loudly as this country will every speak. There was no capturing of the sensibilities of hardworking Americans in order to pass this bill. Elections have consequences, and for once the country did it's best to elect people that would give them the result they desired. But the Dems found a way around those election consequences, and are now bitching and moaning when similar round about tactics are being used to attempt to get what the other side wants. If sidestepping the legislative process is not good now, why was it good just a couple of years ago?
  19. Well...Guards like Colin Brown are
  20. I tried to throw in an "often" in my statement to leave room for exceptions, because there are always exceptions. But I seem to know an increasing number of people that aren't having kids until they are 45-50, just because... Sometimes they remarried, and apparently need a set of kids with the new spouse, sometimes they just didn't get around to it earlier. Fewer and fewer seem to have thought about the repercussions of this decision in their own lives, much less their kids' lives. They just finally decided they wanted kids, so they had them. They had the childhood they wanted, they had the career they wanted, they lived how they wanted, and now feel they need the kids they want. They have no answers for questions concerning finances, health issues, time commitments, lifestyle choices, etc... when it comes to adding kids to their equation. Neither do most young people, but at 45-50, you should really know better. But I also agree, there is still a lot of life to learn at 22 when a lot of "kids" think they're ready to have kids. Also, there is no such thing as a perfect parent, no matter the age. We all screw our kids up in 1 way or another, hopefully we don't mess them up too badly.
  21. The word value is probably a lot like the word penalty or fine or whatever it was that suddenly became the word tax. Somewhere in the 2700 page piece of crap there's probably an asterisk that says something about " Some or all words in this bill and their definitions are subject to change at any point in the future."
  22. It'll probably offend lots of people here, but having kids that late in life is often incredibly selfish.
  23. The EPA is a joke. Just like any other gov't agency, many of their decisions and policies serve political agendas instead of actually addressing the needs of the country.
  24. Remember to make one of these come draft time.
