This has got to be the worst defeat
PastaJoe replied to Rayzer32's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'd rather lose 41-3. At least then you don't have your heart ripped out again. This is what separates winners from losers. Winners know how to finish off a game with a lead. -
What's your lock pick for today's game?

Can anyone ever recall Dick Jauron
PastaJoe replied to evilbuffalobob's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ralph has standing orders not to waste any Gatorade. Any left in the cups is thrown back in the jugs for the next game. And don't ask about the hot dog wrappers you leave under your seats. -

Rudy clearing the way for NY governor run
PastaJoe replied to UConn James's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
And let's overlook that President Bush drove up the deficit with a huge tax cut for the wealthy that was not paid for with equal cuts in spending and are going to be paid for by (wait for it, it's a favorite of conservatives) our children and grandchildren, and that much of the spending in the past few months have been to stabilize the economy and banks that tanked before he took office. But I suppose you supply siders who like to be trickled on would rather we went into an economic depression, and then blame Obama for doing nothing. -
"The 33-second ad by the League of American Voters, which features a neurosurgeon who warns that a government-run health care system will lead to the rationing of procedures and medicine" "It tells the truth and it really highlights one of the biggest vulnerabilities and problems with this proposed legislation, which is it rations health care and disproportionately will decimate the quality of health care for seniors." These are not facts, there are no proposals in any of the bills that have come out of the committees that call for rationing. Therefore they were perfectly right to turn down this ad that lies about the proposals. They might as well have included death panels in the ad, since it's just as misleading.

Rudy clearing the way for NY governor run
PastaJoe replied to UConn James's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Like the repercussion of making a short term investment to prime the pump to increase demand which leads to increased production which leads to more employment which means increased tax revenue which means paying for the short term investment. That repercussion? Please stay away, we don't want people who mock the blind. -
'Cash for Refrigerators' Program???

Oh look, another dinner table speaks! -
Rudy clearing the way for NY governor run
PastaJoe replied to UConn James's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
What's Rudy going to do, bus the legislature to another state, like how he handled the homeless in NYC? Instead of solving a problem, just push them out of the way and leave them for someone else to help. -
'Cash for Refrigerators' Program???
PastaJoe replied to Magox's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
You miss the big picture. If I buy a refrig because of a rebate that I wouldn't otherwise buy, it's stimulating the business, reducing inventory, and hopefully if enough people do it, could lead to retention or creation of jobs in the industry, thus helping the economy, and hopefully creating a job opportunity for me, so I can again pay taxes, which I'd gladly do. I'm still paying the majority of the cost of the refrig, but every bit helps make the decision easier. It's priming the economic engine. And since most if not all TVs are made overseas, that type of program wouldn't help our manufacturing base. -
'Cash for Refrigerators' Program???
PastaJoe replied to Magox's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Because I'm not a tight-fisted, hard-hearted bastard who's unwilling to pay taxes and allow it to be used to help those who are having a tough time. When I have it, I'm happy to contribute because I know someday I might need assistance, and I know what it's like to lose a job when the economy tanks like it did last year. And I don't know what a regrigerator is so I don't want one anyways. -
'Cash for Refrigerators' Program???
PastaJoe replied to Magox's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I'm just getting some of the taxes I paid for the past 25 years back to help me out when I need it. We were planning on getting new appliances and a new driveway when I got laid off. If not for the layoff, we would have already bought those things. I wouldn't begrudge anyone else, including you, of using my tax money to help out if you needed it. And I've never belonged to a union, I've always been a salaried employee. -
Why this preseason matters - not the final scores -
PastaJoe replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Correct. The score of the preseason games doesn't matter, what matters is how the 1st teams do against each other. And in the Bills case, they've been taken to school. I expect it to continue in Pittsburgh. -
What happened to not looking backwards?
PastaJoe replied to Magox's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
The AG is bound to do what's right according to the law, not what's politically popular. Obama said he didn't think those who followed the rules of the time should be prosecuted. But what Holder is doing asking a special prosecutor to look at about 10 specific cases that went beyond the rules of the time. It shows that this administration isn't trying to tell the AG what they should and shouldn't investigate, which is the proper relationship between the AG and president. I don't think Holder has to worry about this White House pressuring him while he's sick in a hospital bed. -
'Cash for Refrigerators' Program???
PastaJoe replied to Magox's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I advocated an appliance program a couple week's ago. I just wish it included stoves, but for some reason they don't fall under the EnergyStar program. Someone told me an appliance has to use water in some way to be in the program. Our fridge and stove are over 15 years old and on their last legs, but we've been holding off since I'm unemployed. But we'll make the purchase if we can get a rebate. -
how many weeks before you jump on the bandwagon?
PastaJoe replied to zazie's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Nobody gets thrown under the circled bandwagons like the Buffalo Bills fans. -
Now you're just being silly.

Actually the opinion piece was copied by Fox from the conservative blog site, The Stiletto. It's on par with a blog saying the Bills can win the Super Bowl this year if the stars are aligned right. But feel free to fantasize.

Tom Ridge pulls a McClellan, Powell
PastaJoe replied to Bishop Hedd's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
It not new news that the Bush administration politicized 9/11, these type of revelations by insiders just confirms our allegations during those years were correct. Ridge was the moderate Republican who should have been VP, but was disqualified by the party because he's pro-choice. We would have been much better off with him steering Bush's policies than Cheney. -
A true conservative would try to end Medicare regardless of the political implications. And I would be against opting out of SS and letting it die out. It was set up as a safety net for the poor and elderly. I'm not depending on SS as my primary source of retirement money, but I think it needs to be there for those who need it, and support continuing to fund it. Just as I believe that younger healthy people should have to buy some form of health insurance, just like they have to buy car insurance.

You mean like Medicare. To be consistent, why aren't conservatives calling for that government run socialist program to be stopped?
