Moderateman has lost it. After trying to trash me in a hate piece he wrote where he took things out of context, I pointed out an instance where I gave him a thank you for his service to our country. Did he say thank you then or now? Of course not, he took it as an insult. He also had the nerve to delete my response so no one could see how wrong he was and that he started the whole thing by insulting me several times and by calling my mother a whore. Here's what was said... In an arti...
Going into the weekend, no doubt, the election will be the dominat story. Experts tell us there are 7 key races where the Democrats can possibly obtain the majority. Here are my predictions on who will win each race. Feel free to add your own prediction. Missouri - Talent vs. McCaskill This one is called a toss up right now. Talent isn't as issues vulnerable as some like Santorum and Allen. I've seen polls putting each up by 5 points, and deadlocked. Talent wins, 52 / 48 Montana...
I got this off of youtube.com. A nice summary on who he is and our role in propping him up. Nothin like a dirty lil secret. Link
recently, the Steelers haven't been doing so well. I live in Delaware these days, pretty much a Philadelphia suburb. folks around here know I am from Pirttsburgh and of my fandom of the Steelers. I get the usual "are ya still a fan?" questions as they have struggled this season. I tell em i'll be a fan until the day I die. Why? This ESPN post said it best, and I 'd like to share it... What's the big deal about Steeler football? > TAKEN FROM A BOARD ON THE ESPN WEBSITE > What's the bi...
Back in the 90's, I found myself disgruntled in the political world. I had registered Republican when I turned 18 in 1985, but over the years it seemed that neither of the 2 parties adequately represented my views. There were things I liked on both sides, but just as much I didn't like. this wasn't all policy based. Both parties had people I liked, and people I didn't. Both parties had members do things I approved of, and just as many who had broken my trust. Furthermore, both parties jus...
Most people in this country like Laura Bush. The ex-librarian comes across as that mom who always had some cookies and juice for the kids playing out back. She had the air of a traditional woman that some see as a thing of the past. Most people, even those who dislike the President and/ or his policies, liked Laura. For the most part, I like her. She has that goofy cross eyed thing like the one girl from the Dixie Chicks, but that aside, she's usually come across as an "all american tradition...
Now, maybe I have seen it all in politics. Next Tuesday may prove that statement wrong, but for now, I think I have. Two days ago, Senator John Kerry was stumping for the already defeated California democratic gubenatorial candidate. Kerry went into a bunch of one-liners about President Bush. As usual, John Kerry is no Henny Youngman or even Carrot Top. In his monologue, he made a reference to people who don't pay attention and study in school "get stuck in Iraq." This obscure line wou...
Ben Rothlisberger lost his 4th game out of 5 yesterday. This time, he managed to make the Oakland Raiders, considered by some as the worst team in the league, look good. Ben threw another 4 interceptions and just looked bad out there. What is wrong with him? Is it the motorcycle accident? Watching him play, he seems to be reacting a bit slower than in the past. It could be a lingering or permanent effect of the accident. Or it could be a lack of confidence. Is it the fact that he h...
Recently, I sat down to watch some Star Wars with my oldest son. In the movie, which I am guessing most are at least vaguely familiar with (any episode), they always have scenes in which their cities, which are always so tall and vertical, have cars that fly all around the buildings. Watching it I started to think back when many were dreaming of the day of the flying car. When I was a boy, people would predict that by some date (most of which have passed) we would be cruising in the air i...
Check this video out! Quite revealing! Link
Check this ad out on the candidate's website. A great way to say something without ever actually saying it... Link Of course, I don't live in Mass., but if I did, I could vote for this guy I think. Anyone who has seen the "big dig" disaster in Boston i'm sure can relate to this. And even if you haven't, you are sure to get a chuckle!
Today, George Bush, offered his focus-group vetted speech to the American people. It was, as predicted, just more rhetoric. Bush stated that they were setting up "benchmarks" for the Iraq goverment to achieve. he emphasized a big differnce between his "benchmarks" and his misrepresentation of the democratic position, which he calls a "fixed timetable." Of course the president is lying. Again. The democrats have offered plans that involve "benchmarks" a year ago. Of course they were ...
You see it in articles and replies all the time. To paraphrase, it usually boils down to this..." stop saying things i can't deal with, or i'll censor your words." It matters not how polite the person is. It doesn't matter if the person refrains from insults and profanity. All that matters is that the host of the article can't effectively argue something, therefore his only course of action is that of any coward. Run and hide. In this case, censor the writer. Of course, that's their choic...
Harold Ford is running ofr Senator in Tennesee. The culturally conservative democrat has ran, by modern standards, a pretty good campaign. The same can't be said for his republican opponent or his party. Bob Corker has allowed the RNC to run highly inflamatory racist ads in Tennesee. Corker claims to distance himself from the ads, which show white women suggesting Ford "call them" to have some fun. The old black man, white woman thing. Another ad, attacks Ford's father as being just anothe...
