Death penalty has been used in way to arbitrary a manner to ever be justified.Too many innocents have been sentenced to death and state sponsored ******* is not justifiable anyway.The rest of the civilized world has already come to that conclusion.Time for america to catch up.Let him rot in jail...

Double humbug lol, I'm OK. New Christmas carol movie coming looks good though.

Boo!!!

My 2nd favorite after "Duck Soup" My pick is Alan Alda from "Paper Lion" But the serious answer is Peyton of current players and Joe Montana of past players.

Many presidents have had some problems with the media.Anyone who thinks that is not the case needs to read some. Just for example go google Richard Nixon and his "enemies list".And that list was around before wategate.When the Washington Post (Woodward and bernstein) started running stories...

This thread has wandered pretty far from what the original post was about.Which was some people had said some pretty disgusting and fairly stupid (one called him a woman and many were badly challenged on spelling) things in regard to the holocaust,jews and in particular holocaust survivor and...

Be there tommorow for the memorial with Michelle as well.Lets hope he doesn't pull a Bush and just do a fly over.:D http://www.examiner.com/x-12767-US-Headlines-Examiner~y2009m11d7-President-Barack-Obama-to-attend-Fort-Hood-memorial-service-on-Tuesday-link-to-memorial-service

On a serious note there were some who given the history of the 20th century worried about a reunified vibrant germany.All their fears were unfounded and a reunified germany has been a very stable good influence on the world IMO. Hope they enjoy their celebration .:hatsoff:

He is just a chip off the old block. "On April 30, 1975, Saigon’s fall was imminent. Le’s ******, a South Vietnamese navy officer, had just assumed command of the Nha Be Naval Support Activity Base after learning the previous commander left the country without warning. "

Ok time to go watch the rest of the Giants game and switch to the race when they go to commercial lol.Good game on NBC tonight if you can see it,Cowboys at Eagles.

Social security taxes,school funding taxes etc are all mandates as well.No one should hold your their breath's on any of this being deemed unconstitutional.Representative democracy does not guarantee everyone will agree lol.If it did I would protest a lot of what my taxes are spent on as well.

Another Idea.Offer him the pick a letter deal and I know he would not complain.:nanner:

Just do it then put it back the way it was.

I still think you could do it and he would dig it lol.Send the outer limits vid.:cool:

OK I understand ,rules be rules lol.

Didn't Bush set records for least news conferences and interviews? And the few times he and other republicans went on TV it would be almost always Fox.Sarah Palin eventually only talked to Fox when she was running.Thats not journalism, it's pro republican propaganda. Republicans have had...

Think it is you can have anyones health care but you have to have one.And there will be a lot of provisons for subsidies for people whose incomes indicate they can't afford it. In the other countries where they have the govt run systems and people pay in tax deductions you have no choice...

Hey there!!!!!!!

Even better is someone who is a neocon but stays in the rear areas (like stateside) and never goes overseas during time of war.Our last President is exactly that person.Getting into any of those stateside only military situations(Coast Guard,national Guard,Air national guard) during Vietnam was...

Couple responses to that idea. We would probably have to bring back the draft to do that.In reading about the shooter at Ft. Hood they not only were deploying a muslim but one who had spoken out against the wars.The reason speculated that he was still being deployed is that they (the army)...

Gonna sign off for a while.Have a good one

Freaky looking terrain .

Ok cool.

Howdy,mail must be lost lol.

They are reporting he was transfered from Walter Reade to Fort Hood after he received a bad evaluation report,but yet they had just recently promoted him to Major.And that he was someone who they knew might be a problem from reports of things he had posted on the net and said. A lot of this...

He for sure agreed with the bailouts.You really can't find any economist that will say that without those bailouts our economy would not have probably plunged into a depression and we would have dragged the rest of the world down with us. So no one Bush or Obama had any choice but to support...

I saw the breakdown of who voted for who here in the NJ race and it confirms what you say.Under 25 went solidly for the dem and over 65 solidly republican. And turn out overall was extremely low,think they said lowest ever.So not sure you can really read a lot into the vote except people were...

Not yet but give it time,that pond is big lol.

My take on it is you can't have tough standards and cheap prices. China is a still developing economic society.In the early 20th century the US had very little standards as well.Give them time they will get better like we did over time especially if their lack of standards starts to hurt...

Actually you would find most americans even those you would think of not being very sympathetic to any minority would say the one group they think has gotten a raw deal were the native americans.They may not be willing to do much about it, but they will say that at least.

Bet the look on his ******'s faces was priceless.

Hmm wonder why,just replied again.

hey hey!!!! You got my mail when this was down right?

LOL.. Congrats Yankees.:hatsoff:

This is the thing IMO.If people are still as worried about the economy in 2010 as they are now,all incumbents are in deep trouble.I'm from NJ and and people here are not happy and wanted change.We have deep debt problems,high unemployment,high property taxes etc. Chris Christie the new gov...

That of course is true but even worse is that these kind of things are like the "canary in a coal mine" and should be seen as warnings and dangers for us as well.

You know as much as I loved the work by Lennon I don't think his best artistic stuff laid ahead of him when he died,if he had died in say 1962 that would have been true but not when he died as tragic as that was. Same goes for the rock great Elvis.His best years were IMO 1956 into 1957 then...

See that lol. I love steaks ,pork chops and leather coats.:thumbsup: Any ****** not endangered by our use for those kinds of things like those breed in captivity ,minks, cows,pigs,chickens etc is good. But ones like Lions and tigers etc. who are endangered people should protest the use...

Both of these threads leave me sort of lets say ambivalent.Many of the poeple in my opinion may have already done the best stuff they were gonna do before their deaths,but we will never really know that since they died:dunno:. Of this group the only four I am very familar with are...

Well good if their your team ,their my team for that sport.:thumbsup:

I never followed it,might watch it if it happens to be on and it seems like a good match up.Losing interest in the pro's right now too,my team The Giants started well at 5-0 but has lost 3 straight now and looked bad while doing it.

Flatery,flatery lol. Did you see what you wanted on Alabama football?

Hiya !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To me the obvious one is James Dean.But his dying young also sealed his legend.Don't think his legend would have been 1/2 of what it was if he hadn't died so young.He was a decent actor but who knows if he could have been more then just a 50s teen angst type.Now we will never know and he is...

**** is too extreme.They would have ******* treated as though they were the equal of humans.I'm not for using ******* in delibertly cruel ways and don't like to see them threatened with extinction,but thats cause I think we need to keep nature in some sort of balance for our own good.But...

Ok I should have noticed that.:o I have no idea what the laws are in Canada.:dunno:

Well all I will say is I wonder if your company realizes thats probably not legal to do.You can't work an hourly worker more than 40 hours and not pay overtime in any state as far as I know. They should put you on salary if they want more than 40 with no OT. I have been on both sides of the...

I have made my defense of unions and how I think overwhelmingly they have been good for america and workers in other countries as well. But my reason for responding to your post is I am not sure I understand what you do as far as hours worked goes. Are you saying you work more than 40...

Agree with your sentiment.I think overwhelming percentage of americans would jump right in and help.

Yep paid overtime,the 40 hour work week,safety protections,and so many other things we just take for granted were won by people in unions who suffered through tough strikes,beatings and some even died for those benefits. And they are not obsolete now.Just take Walmart as an example,biggest...
