Who is the odd man out in Minnesota?

if you get a beater for free, do you turn it down because it's not the car of your dreams, mind you that your transportation now is a huffy with a broken frame and two flat tires. -
I'm willing to bet that the intolerance would be limited to mocking and some funny jokes on the Daily Show.

It's not about a pre-season game- it's about the Bills improving neither the QB or the Oline. I'd say expecting the Bills to be good is the triumph of hope over experience.

Obama, Muslim, Marxist, now CIA agent
....lybob replied to ....lybob's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Most of the stories seem to be rehashes of Rev James David Manning work(insane rantings) the Rev is putting Obama on trial at his church - here is a small sample of his writing (well not really small) "Obama was recruited in 1980 by the CIA while a student at Occidental College in Los Angeles, California. The CIA needed Muslims who were fluent in Farsi and other Islamic customs and understandings. Obama was perfect as an undercover agent. The CIA then later enlisted Columbia University to extend its foreign student program to Barack Hussein Obama that he might enroll in the universities around Karachi and in Pakistan, and also the Patrice Lamumba school in Moscow. With a perfect cover as a US student identity, Obama became the lead agent in the arms and money supply to the struggling Taliban army against the Soviet war machine. Obama's cover was flawless, and his skills as an agent incredible. He was more than integral to the Taliban victory later on that decade. Now I will be presenting documentation to all that I say here in this announcement. But it is public knowledge that Obama traveled to Pakistan in 1981. We don't know how often he traveled between Pakistan and Russia, or his return back to America and back to Pakistan, off and on, during his undercover operation in Afghanistan training and being a money supplier and interpreter for the CIA to the Taliban during those war years. The state Department records have been scrubbed and the State Department employee was killed to cover the passport office break-in of April 2008, Lieutenant Quarles Harris, a young African American who was found shot dead in front of the Judah Praise Baptist church in northeast Washington, DC. Obama learned his Islamic language skills while he spent six years in Indonesia with his stepfather Lolo Soetoro and his mother. When he returned from his CIA assignment in the mid 1980s, he pressured the State Department to allow him to enter Harvard Law School He excelled at Harvard, became the Editor of the Law Review. Where upon his graduation he could have become a Supreme Court clerk or a multi-million dollar salary would have been offered to him at America's best law firms, except for one thing...he did not have a legitimate background as a US Citizen or as a student from Occidental or Columbia. A diligent investigation by a personnel agency of a major law firm would have revealed he was not a US citizen. And how could a "C" student go from Occidental College to America's fifth most difficult school to enter, into Columbia University, and then from there three years later enter into the world's most difficult lawschool, Harvard? So what does a former CIA operative do when they cannot pass a personnel test? Obama becomes a "Community Organizer" on the South side of Chicago, where no background check is needed. His marriage to Michelle Robinson, a lawyer and connected Chicago politician, although a convenient marriage, now gives him citizenship and the beginning of a solid background. He takes a job at the same law firm where Michelle becomes his trainer and supervisor, a law firm that is heavily influenced by small time criminal, Tony Rezko. Michelle Robinson controls the personnel records, and his hiring takes place without a hitch. When questions were raised during the 2008 campaign for presidency about his Columbia years, he spun those questions and the media by declaring himself to be an Ascetic, a monk, and a hermit, going days on end without speaking or interacting with anyone, and he did not live one campus with the regular Columbia University students. Today, Obama is a man who loves the limelight and can hardly tear himself away from any camera he passes by, wants us to believe that he was once a monk or hermit with no interaction with anyone. Michael Wolf, former NTA Chairman and graduate of Columbia says he remembers Obama s very smart and a great debater while he was at Columbia, and he was very active in student activities. Now it appears that Michael Wolf remembers things about Obama that Obama does not remember about himself. FOX news during the 2008 campaign, when questions were raised about Barack OBama's Columbia years, interviewed more than 400 people on campus during the years of 1980 to 1984--students, nurses, librarians, custodians, shopkeepers, people in the environment, in their investigation, not one of the 400 people remembers Barack Hussein Obama during his alleged Columbia years. The Reagan Bush administrations and the Bush 43 administration, all know this about Barack Obama as a CIA operative, and his help to win the war there for the Taliban in Afghanistan during the Russian invasion. They just did not expect Barack Obama to win the Iowa Caucus. When he won that, there was no way they could assassinate him, remove him from the scene. They had to allow him to march over the Clintons and over John McCain that he might be the president. We as a government and and as a people are being held hostage by this former CIA operative Barack Hussein Obama who has heavy Muslim beliefs Marxist politics and has an intense hatred for this nation called America. At the trial 14th of May I will document, all these statements that are not public knowledge. But because of growing threatening circumstances I must present my case to the public now. I am James David Manning, Senior Pastor of the Atlah World Missionary Church in Harlem, New York and host of Manning report." Another repeated source is Wayne Madsen, Madsen never comes out and calls Obama a CIA operative much the same way I never called anyones mother a whore- just that she worked in the the red light district and had many gentlemen callers who stayed for half an hour and often left with their pants unzipped. http://www.a-w-i-p.com/index.php/2010/08/0...-s-cia-pedigree This seems to be a stand alone http://operation-mockingbird.blogspot.com/...ks-for-cia.html -
OK last year I've read that Obama was a secrete Muslim then a secrete Marxist, and now I'm reading that he was a CIA operative- so my question is does he get to say "stay thirsty my friends" when the other guy gets too old.

I think they are still a year away but they do have some talent- I think they still need a workhorse back and a little more talent on the Oline.

Has Osama delivered on his promise
....lybob replied to ....lybob's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
you might be right but I think you are missing another trillion in costs (homeland security, increases in intelligence agencies budgets, increases in military budget non war related, foreign aid/bribes, medical costs for returning vets) caused by 9/11. -
I don't think the problem is this year, even if they had made all the right moves this off-season I think they would have been a poor team this year, but I have serious questions about whether they have set any foundation for next year or the year after- they needed to increase the talent level of the offensive line and QB- Spiller may be a fine player but a situational running back is not part of a quality foundation, more like putting fancy rims on a junker.

I was very impressed with what I saw from his college and camp video- I think he had a pretty slow 40 which is why he went undrafted but he's looked plenty fast when I've seen him.

Monday, November 1, 2004 Posted: 8:07 PM EST (0107 GMT) Osama bin Laden delivers a videotaped message broadcast on Arabic-language network Al-Jazeera. (CNN) -- The Arabic-language network Al-Jazeera released a full transcript Monday of the most recent videotape from Osama bin Laden in which the head of al Qaeda said his group's goal is to force America into bankruptcy. Al-Jazeera aired portions of the videotape Friday but released the full transcript of the entire tape on its Web site Monday. "We are continuing this policy in bleeding America to the point of bankruptcy. Allah willing, and nothing is too great for Allah," bin Laden said in the transcript. He said the mujahedeen fighters did the same thing to the Soviet Union in Afghanistan in the 1980s, "using guerrilla warfare and the war of attrition to fight tyrannical superpowers." "We, alongside the mujahedeen, bled Russia for 10 years until it went bankrupt and was forced to withdraw in defeat," bin Laden said. He also said al Qaeda has found it "easy for us to provoke and bait this administration." "All that we have to do is to send two mujahedeen to the furthest point east to raise a piece of cloth on which is written al Qaeda, in order to make generals race there to cause America to suffer human, economic and political losses without their achieving anything of note other than some benefits for their private corporations," bin Laden said. Al-Jazeera executives said they decided to post the entire speech because rumors were circulating that the network omitted parts that "had direct threats toward specific states, which was totally untrue." "We chose the most newsworthy parts of the address and aired them. The rest was used in lower thirds in graphics format," said one official. U.S. intelligence officials Monday confirmed that the transcript made public Monday by Al-Jazeera was a complete one. As part of the "bleed-until-bankruptcy plan," bin Laden cited a British estimate that it cost al Qaeda about $500,000 to carry out the attacks of September 11, 2001, an amount that he said paled in comparison with the costs incurred by the United States. "Every dollar of al Qaeda defeated a million dollars, by the permission of Allah, besides the loss of a huge number of jobs," he said. "As for the economic deficit, it has reached record astronomical numbers estimated to total more than a trillion dollars. The total U.S. national debt is more than $7 trillion. The U.S. federal deficit was $413 billion in 2004, according to the Treasury Department. "It is true that this shows that al Qaeda has gained, but on the other hand it shows that the Bush administration has also gained, something that anyone who looks at the size of the contracts acquired by the shady Bush administration-linked mega-corporations, like Halliburton and its kind, will be convinced. "And it all shows that the real loser is you," he said. "It is the American people and their economy." As for President Bush's Iraq policy, Bin Laden said, "the darkness of black gold blurred his vision and insight, and he gave priority to private interests over the public interests of America. "So the war went ahead, the death toll rose, the American economy bled, and Bush became embroiled in the swamps of Iraq that threaten his future," bin Laden said. U.S. government officials said Friday that the tape appeared to be authentic and recently made. It was the first videotaped message from the al Qaeda leader in nearly three years. Some have written on this board that we are now bankrupt, if so, does that mean that Osama has delivered on his promise?

Hey!! we are a balanced and consistent team. -
"If everyone is a bigot, then no one is." Hmmmm lets try this reasoning "if everyone is stealing, then no one is stealing" I now see how the bankers and the government excuse themselves "if everyone is an idiot, than no one is" Connor, you're definitely off the hook on this board " if everyone is fat, then no one is" thank goodness, I was thinking I should drop a few pounds but now back to tacos

Great article from the Atlantic...

“The real threat to Zionism is the dilution of quality,” he said. “Jews know that they can land on their feet in any corner of the world. The real test for us is to make Israel such an attractive place, such a cutting-edge place in human society, education, culture, science, quality of life, that even American Jewish young people want to come here.” This vision is threatened by Iran and its proxies, Barak said. “Our young people can consciously decide to go other places,” if they dislike living under the threat of nuclear attack. “Our best youngsters could stay out of here by choice.” This is the real crux of the matter- This is why it doesn't matter weather the Iranians have a nuclear weapons program or not, the Israelis feel existentially threatened by the Iranians having the technological ability to build a nuclear weapon. -

I've been here through "Wade has to be better than that wimp Levy" "Gregg has to be better than that dumba$$ Wade" " Mike has to be better than that weasel Williams" "Juaron has to be better than that basket-case Mularkey" and now we are at " Chan has to be better than Juaron the Zombie" hope we are right this time. -
If Schobel plays for NE, or Seattle then the whole "I'm doing it for my family" thing was a complete sham- if Schobel had been ultra cooperative in the salary department we probably could have traded him for a low draft pick 5th-7th but that would have cost him as much as a 1/2 to 2 million dollars depending how many seasons he plays 1-3. BTW I'm not mad at Schobel because the truth is unless he was significantly better than our other OLB candidates he would have been cut or a least asked to take a large pay cut.
