Andrew Cuomo is not a James Bond villain he's the mid-level bureaucrat who wants James Bond to itemize his expenses.

There was never a war on poverty maybe a short police action but never a war.

Cornell Green sums up everything wrong with the Bills - He's not good enough to get us anywhere now and he's too old to be a building block for the future- and while he may be the worst example he's not the only Bill to fit that description why is Kelsey on this team? in fact if you believe that you have to draft and develop a quality QB then the Bills are at least 3 years away from being a contender,and any Bill 29yo and up now will probably be in serious decline by the time we reach that point.

China does what is in the best interest of China- if that is free trade so be it, if that is command and control so be it, if it means keeping their rare earth elements to supply their own industries so be it, if it means being foreign business friendly to learn technology and production processes and have access to robust markets so be it, when they have the technology, the production processes, and the western markets become anemic they will also do what's in their best interest- they may not outright kick those businesses out but those businesses will find an increasingly tough business climate- for example they may require foreign businesses to give Chinese workers equivalent pay and benefits to that which they give workers in their native land.

Booster do you think it'd hurt his feeling if he knew that in Africa Christian Pastors are out and about killing and exorcising witches which is usually the same thing since the exorcisms include •being forced to drink acid •Bound and thrown in rivers •Dunked in sodium hydroxide •Nails hammered into skulls •Burned alive .skinning of breasts and genitals •Chained, starved, and flogged for weeks at a time The problem of course is they take that "you will not suffer a witch to live" seriously - religion is fine if you realize that the benefit from it is mainly a few words of wisdom and social networking.

If anyone wanted to lower medical costs they could stop letting the AMA restrict the number of doctors trained and the number of foreign doctors allowed- they could let pharmaceuticals come in from Canada and Europe. what we really need though is a complete revamping of our medical system from the ground up.

Think what you want but I do like to compare a quote from Psalm 20 "Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we trust the name of Yahweh our God." to a quote from Napoleon "God fights on the side with the best artillery." to illustrate the difference between living in fantasy and reality.

I'd never burn a religious text to give offence or show contempt but if I was cold I'd burn Korans, Bibles, and Torahs by the truck load- I'd burn the Bhagavad Gita and The Dhammapada too but save them for last because the prose is more elegant.

PacifiCare thought so

[quote name='Dave_In_Norfolk' timestamp='1284152402' post='1963763' Markets They will have plenty of markets in Asia, Russia, the Middle East Africa, South America,and Australia.

China severely punishing us? The hilarious part will come in the next five years when they say to Western businesses " we have your technology, we have your production methods, exactly why do we need you?"

If you want to keep your friends you better stop telling such outrageous truths - if you tell them how the U.S. shaped Iran's political landscape they may cry.

That's fine with me .... while I don't agree with the tea party on a lot of issues we are both strong supporters of the 2nd amendment, we both opposed the bank bailouts and we both think the Washington establishment need it's a$$ kicked.

Yeah I knew this was going to happen too not a big freaken surprise- which is why we wanted single payer or at least a public option but Obama was too bu$y ki$$ing corporate a$$- on the bright side he's going to spend a couple months campaigning as a progressive before he returns to ki$$ing corporate a$$.

To try to bring this back to OP topic my guess on how many Muslims we be brought to a aggressive negative reaction by this Koran burning is about one in every 100,000 or about 14,000 total- this is just a guess of course so I propose this experiment, have people dress as Dolphin fans come to the Ralph and burn Bills paraphernalia to judge how moderates would react and go to Oakland and do the same to Raider fans to judge how more violent fundamentalist sects would react.

When did so many Bills fans become such little whiny biotches that they are compelled to go out of their way to find predictions that offend them, the tried and true method to stop all those mean people from saying we suck, is for the Bills to stop sucking. If we win people will respect us, if we lose we deserve their scorn. Don't be concerned about a know-nothing making predictions be concerned that if Detroit makes the playoffs and we don't we will be all alone with the longest non-playoff streak in the NFL.

Does it hurt that Wade Phillips is rated 13 places higher than Chan.

agree with this- also would like us to cut Green and sign Herman Johnson

The three players I'd give strong consideration to are Spencer Havner TE, Herman Johnson OT/OG, and Max Jean Giles OG

I think that's a good Idea.

Observations Six safeties seem a little unbalanced but might be due to the Byrd injury If I was playing the Bills I'd test the Bills LBs early and often as pass defenders Chad Johnson must have some serious problems outside of physical abilities to play football Offensive Line is scary, yikes!! not surprised the Bills kept McCargo - he's looked better as a 3-4 end then he ever looked as a 4-3 tackle I'd be shocked if there isn't some major reshuffling after the first game.

Personally I don't accept Bill Gates as a authority in Global warming - just like I didn't accept Steve Wynn as a authority in National level economics policy- In fact I'm not down with the whole "he's rich so he must be smart we should listen with awed reverence" thing.

agree but with the following nitpicks 1. It should be called the Cheney 78 months/Bush 18 months, administration 2. I wouldn't call either administrations complete disasters, just plain disasters. 3. While we would both call the Obama Administration a disaster I doubt our bones of contention are the same.

One of Peters problem is that he seems convinced that bigger is better- he's been playing at 350+ and I don't care if that is fat or muscle it's too heavy and leads to his second problem injury- Peters should get down to 325 or less- in fact in todays age where 90% of the edge rushers are under 270 I see no reason for a 6,4 tackle to be more than 310

Booster Jeez, stop bringing pillows to a knife fight- just say "NO you're hooked, infinity, no reversies, NAAAAA" and get with the level of this conversation.
