The defense is so suspect that I really cannot believe anyone would consider blaming Miller. If there's a playoff team that has a defense that makes more mistakes in and around their net than the Sabres, I accept nominations. Leaving pucks behind the net for the other team. Inability to clear the zone even to take an icing. Leaving the other team's best player wide open in front of the net with the goalie for 4 seconds. I mean, WTF? The rest of the league thinks Miller is a stud. Only his own fans question him. It's like in the 90s when Bills fans used to call for Kelly to be benched in favor of Reich. Get a grip people. Enroth isn't the answer unless the question is: Who's the guy the Flyers hope starts game 5?

Is there a non-Troll person here who is in the 70% of registered Republicans who questions whether Obama was born here? If so, why? And have you see nthe copy of the birth certificate that is all over the Internet? Serious responses will be considered as applications for the ignore button.

Right choice. Next is Jacob. Casey's grittier version of that song was a better take than Maroon 5's. He's the only guy this season with instrumental chops--kind of sad as there were a few last year (ironically, wasn't last year's guitar guy named Casey too?). The girls were solid. Durbin was great though I wonder why he gets so much help with the choreography that others seem not to. Scotty is the same every week but is going to be the easiest person to sell. The US will eat up that country voice once he starts making records.

The Sabres defense is good for 3-4 complete mind-eff moments a game in this series. And I've never seen a team have a harder time clearing a puck.

They only showed one replay on TV. It definitely hit Meyers but Miller might have gotten a piece of it too. The announcers couldn't tell if Miller got it a bit too and they never came back to it.

There is no debt problem. S&P's move was just politically motivated. These are not the droids you're looking for.

Defense is part of the problem. Cutting back on the poverty-sustenance system is also part of the solution. Everyone is going to take a lickin' to get a real solution on the books. Ryan is a dolt for not proposing defense cuts past the pittance Obama already agreed to. The Dems are retarded to think that they can keep Obamacare, the Medis (bot CAID and CARE Magox), and Social Security intact. Gore all oxes.

I am enjoying Trump the pot-stirrer as much as anyone but he better not rise past amusing electoral sideshow. He's a dance partner with Palin in terms of electoral credibility.

You can learn a lot from an NFL GM 9 days before the draft.

Something has to cool China. And they still have this whole "oppressed people" problem always lurking below the surface of their success.

Trolly McTrollstein is back. Yay!

MAybe, but sad that the stupid media took the bait.

I am a little late to this party. But here's this huge story: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2011/04/11/jcrew-ad-showing-boy-pink-nail-polish-sparks-debate-gender-identity/ and the daily show's 100% right take: http://www.thedailyshow.com/full-episodes/wed-april-13-2011-tracy-morgan

Navy is the last thing I'd cut. Open trade routes are more important than nation building.

I am the oldest person posting in this thread. Paul was horrible most weeks except last. This week's train wreck was the end of the line. Maybe a wardrobe change could have saved him until next week but he was going soon.

On a quick search, Chicago, Boston, Philly, Milwaukee have residency requirements. I am sure many other big cities too. Looks like Ohio ruled it illegal. Seems dumb to me. Let people live where they want. Most people who work in the city would want to live near it anyways. It makes even less sense in a tiny town like Buffalo.

They just need another Eminem commercial.

I imagine the given rationale is to keep people invested in their community. I am sure the real rationale is a mix of guaranteed city wage tax payers at the 4.5% rate (non city people who work in the city pay a lesser rate of 4.2ish...that's me, prevent city flight, gaurantee property taxes in the city for most of them, encourages residents to spend in the city, etc. Dough ray me. Nowadays, the city is much renewed and it's probably less of an issue. But 15-20 years ago, it was apparently a huge problem as no one wanted to live here.

It's not an uncommon requirement in cities. Philly has it for if not all, most, city jobs.

You already owe taxes on web sales. Maybe you're not paying them?

Read more boy wonder. I discussed the military BS reduction in detail but I guess you were so enamored with Ryan's bold plan that you missed that all he did was shave a sliver off the military budget--a sliver already agreed to by Obama! What bold moves. And I noted the medicaid cap because in capping it and handing it off to the states, the cost increases are being transferred to the states. To us. And if you don't think that will increase bureaucracy at the state level, since this was all federally funded before, you're dumber than you continually prove yourself to be. But maybe I underestimate your stupidity. Or who knows maybe the states won't increase their medicaid related govt and won't raise taxes to make up the differences in the block grant's shortfalls. Hahaha aha So that is passing the buck. The feds are just passing the medicaid responsibility to the states. Bold Ryan...very bold!

Right, especially since my post is 100% accurate if not for the aid/care issue. WTG boy wonder.

Hey look: Magox found a cookie. You're right for once. I should have typed MediCAID, not MediCARE. Glad you got your panties in a wad over that typo? But of course, you probably didn't understand the Medicaid reform so you couldn't have just noted I mistyped it huh? Either that or you just decided it was time for you to once again ascend preach.

I want George Bush to send me another one of those random checks. What was awesome. Bring back 2008. Ryan's Medicare reform was anything but serious. All he proposes is fixing the total spending and dumping the money to the states in block grants (instead of the direct physician reimbursement that happens now)--and leaving the states to figure things out. That won't fix jack squat, and likely in the end just create a ton more government bloat. Instead of having one big federal Medicare bloat, there will be 50 state government medicare oversight agencies. That's not reform: That's passing the buck, and doing it in a way that almost can't help but cost more. The only encouraging thing about Ryan's medicare reform plan is that he actually said the Medicare needs reform. The plan part is a joke. What we need to do it cut benefits substantially and focus on wellness and not doctor visits. And I have no problem with raising taxes aggressively to pay off the debt, as long as it's done evenly and as long as there is something like $3-4 dollars in spending cuts for every dollar of tax increase. Want to raise a trillion in taxes? OK, cut 3 in spending. And all of that had better go to the debt.

The sides were basically at agreement for days and the only thing still on the table was the block grants affecting PP and the EPA stuff. If you don't think the elected right is going to push social policy (marriage, abortion) in the next year, you're higher than you are. Hopefully it will fail and they can focus on cutting spending.
