  1. Hard to watch the show once it became a sausage fest. Is it a fact or a rumor that Lambert is gay? I wonder if the young girls that are voting for him know that.
  2. Former Duke University point guard Greg Paulus is coming home to Syracuse to play football for his final year of NCAA eligibility. Paulus a graduate of Christian Brothers Academy in Syracuse, announced his decision during a teleconference call from Duke on Thursday morning. "My heart and my gut told me Syracuse was the best place for me," Paulus said. Paulus, 6-foot-1, 180 pounds, also made official visits to Michigan and Nebraska before making his decision. He worked out for the Green Bay Packers in April, sparking a renewed interest in playing football. Paulus was named the Gatorade National High School Player of the Year as a high school senior. He threw for 11,763 yards and 152 touchdowns during his career at CBA. Paulus now has to seek a waiver from the NCAA to play for Syracuse. He is expected to enroll this summer as a graduate student and begin voluntary workouts with the team. http://www.syracuse.com/today/index.ssf/20...to_play_fo.html Went to my old high school. He led them to the state championship. But he only gets to play one year of football if allowed by the NCAA.
  3. You're a piece of work. This is why you're not taken seriously. Complain about people not being able to say what they want, and then telling people to STFU. Moronic.
  4. Because some retired golfer is an expert on the views of the military. Let's see his research that shows that the military would like to shoot civilian public officials. Can he provide the names of those serving that have that opinion, so it can be verified? I can imagine the uproar from you if he had said Bush and Cheney. 1. It was kidneys, not liver. 2. Rush isn't a public official. 3. Wanda Sykes is an unfunny hack who went over the line like Don Imus did when he did the event. I already heard Whoopie Goldberg chastise her for going too far.
  5. Yeah, just listen to the right wing talking heads for your marching orders. Saying that any public official should be shot, whether it's Bush, Cheney, Pelosi, or Reid, is irresponsible.
  6. "Having failed the drug test, this stout lineman from Nebraska dropped from a late round draft pick to an undrafted free agent."
  7. Pats 12-4 Dolphins 9-7 Jets 7-9 Bills 6-10
  8. Miami Dolphins Jimmy Johnson Peyton Manning
  9. Biscuit, Cornelius Bennett's nickname Travis, if it's not spayed/neutered Norwood Kelly Beebe McKenzie Poz Braxton
  10. I agree that it was crappy when only white men made the rules.
  11. No, he authorized the shooting of 3 pirates who were threatening to kill their civilian hostage. If he had done nothing and let the hostage be killed, you right wingers would have been screaming about how it shows he can't even protect one American. Stop being a hypocrite. And what does that military action have to do with gun control? Or are you one of those wackos who think we need our guns to fight the American military?
  12. Often it costs more to fix the damage done than it does to do the damage in the first place. The economy is in the emergency room after years of neglect and overindulgence.
  13. I consider Kennedy as more to the right, so right now the court leans more to the right than the majority of Americans. Hopefully Stevens, Ginsburg, and possibly Kennedy will retire while Obama is still president so they are replaced with younger justices with a moderate judicial temperament, as the conservatives will probably be there for awhile.
  14. I know Dick Cheney acted above the law because he thought our democracy failed, and favored corporate welfare as opposed to real capitalism, but I didn't know he was Austrian.
  15. Did you even try to get past some headline on newsmax? Chrysler isn't done, it's reorganizing. That's the whole point, to end up with a viable long-term privately own company. And given that most of the stakeholders have already agreed to the reorg, the bankruptcy will be relatively short.
  16. Yeah, because he said we would unilaterally eliminate our nukes.
  17. What was considered far left in "the good old days" when white men made the rules is now considered moderate by the majority of Americans. A Supreme Court change would only be noteworthy if Scalia or Thomas retired and it was restored to a more moderate balance.
  18. I guess you slept through the Bush budgets that were voted for by the majority of Republicans in Congress.
  19. They did plenty, they took us into deficit spending as we paid for 2 wars on a credit card. As far as creating sustained economic growth and job creation, you're right about them doing nothing in that regard.
  20. It's not a surprise as the Republican party increasingly continues to become the Dixiepub party and makes it hard for social moderates to have a voice.
  21. Anybody who thinks that gay civil marriage is a threat to their own marriage doesn't have a very good marriage in the first place.
  22. Sure, and if the Republicans had won they and Rush and Hannity wouldn't have been crowing about how Obama's policies had been rejected by the voters.
  23. I would have preferred Orakpo to Maybin as he's more of a 3-down, all around DE. The linemen picks are OK, but I wished they picked a true OT like Britten. Same with the Harris pick, I would rather have a true OLB. Didn't like all the CB picks. The Nelson pick was good value. Overall, I'd give them a B for talent, but a C for picking players that will have to change positions. This was a foundation draft, in that they're building a foundation that may be fruitful in a couple of years. But given the schedule and division, I expect they will be competing for 3rd in the division, will once again miss the playoffs, Dick will be gone next year, and we'll have to undergo another 2-3 year rebuilding under another 2nd tier retread coach.
  24. His play has been compared to Cato June. A bit weak in pass coverage.
  25. GLENS FALLS, N.Y. (AP) — Almost a month after a special election in a heavily Republican congressional district, the Democratic candidate claimed victory Friday when his GOP opponent conceded in a race that focused attention on President Barack Obama's stimulus plan. After the March 31 election in New York's 20th District, Democrat Scott Murphy and Republican Jim Tedisco were separated by a handful of votes with thousands of absentee ballots to be counted. For nearly four weeks, the lead flipped back and forth but Murphy's advantage started to grow this week and was more than 400 votes on Thursday. The diverse district stretches from the rural Adirondack Mountains, south of the Canadian border, to the mid-Hudson Valley, north of New York City. It has more than 196,000 registered Republicans compared with about 125,000 Democrats. Nationwide, Republicans have taken a pounding in the past two election cycles and in New York, the pain has been acute. They lost three congressional seats in 2006 and three more last year, leaving just three Republicans in the 29-seat state delegation. They also lost the state Senate for the first time in four decades last November, and every statewide elected office is held by a Democrat. Early on, Republican Party Chairman Michael Steele declared the 20th a top priority for 2009. For Republicans, victory would have given them a claim in the heavily Democratic Northeast. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationw...0,4878860.story So much for the Republican resurgence, maybe the +70,000 more Republicans were busy buying teabags. Or they support Obama's policies.
