  1. The light rail system they put in that circles all the JFK airport terminals and then connects the airport to the railroad station in Queens (AirTrain) is a HUGE success. Just saying..... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AirTrain_(JFK)
  2. And if that was the postion through time, wed all be driving on dirt roads right now. Im not sure if THIS project is a great idea, but the notion of pushing back on govt. subsidized infrastructure improvements out of hand is woefully short-sighted. Go for a drive on any pothole-filled road or sit in traffic on a highway interchange that hasnt been updated or expanded since the 50s and tell me the US transportation system as a whole doesnt need MASSIVE updating. Heck....look at the Northeast AMTRAK corridor. Ever think that MAYBE the reason it sucks so bad is becuase the last time the track and switch system was upgraded or streamlined was during the Roosevelt Administration? The FIRST one?
  3. Yet someone suggests one of your union pals ups their contribution to their Health Care by .00000000000001% and you go apeshit.
  4. A mistake is treasonist? Good lord.
  5. "Let believers not take infidels for friends and allies instead of believers. Whoever does this shall have no relationship left with God--unless you but guard yourselves against them, taking precautions."
  6. Says the guy defending the religion that believes infidels are to be killed. Says the guy defending the religion where all non beleivers are "lower" and dont have equal rights.
  7. Thats wasnt the issue or the question. YOU stated that American's fear of Islamists is based on false propaganda and is baseless. I'm challenging you on that. So the question is....Do you think that American's fear of Islamists is baseless? The rhetoric which leads to widespread violence and the killing of thousands?
  8. And UNlike the propaganda bogeymen **** spead bythe Nazi regime, Amercians have real bona fide images to back up their opinions. AND FOR YOU......SOMEONE WHO PHYSICALLY SAW AMERICAN AIRLINES FLIGHT 77 CRASH INTO THE PENTAGON..... to prop up the above blameshifting nonsense is pretty !@#$ing reprehensible and reckless. Youre smarter than that....or so I thought.
  9. Chicot....their mission statement or motto states they want to form a Caliphate and do so THROUGH VIOLENCE. That is their STATED MISSION. Cut the ****. Again, let them have Egypt and whatever pile of sand they want. But go one step towards Israel or !@#$ with the shipping lanes and expect to meet the business end of a JDAM. Deal?
  10. I say let the Islamists take over. Then promply put TWO Carrier Air Wings in the Med off the Egyptian coast, a third in the Red Sea and tell all the ragheads "Just TRY to make a move on Israel or !@#$ with the shipping lanes through the Suez Canal and see what happens." But we dont do such things anymore becuase we can never project power and have become a bunch of pussies. Where the !@#$ is Reagan or JFK when we need them?
  11. If this is all a recent trend, how come all the records being broken are from, like...the 20s or the 40s?
  12. If he's right he is right...if he is wrong....he is STILL right. Must be nice.
  13. I say let the Islamists take over. Then promply put TWO Carrier Air Wings in the Med, a third in the Red Sea and tell all the ragheads "Just TRY to make a move on Israel and see what happens." But we dont do such things anymore becuase we can never project power and have become a bunch of pussies. Where the !@#$ is Reagan or JFK when we need them?
  14. Baseball has a luxury tax to assist with competitive balance, you dummy. The Yanks pay tens of millions in luxury tax and the rest of the team like the Mets and Sox keep their salaries at the tax threshold. Also, baseball's ratings are trending low, but overall high, locally and their ticket sales are through the roof. There is not a SINGLE baseball team that is "out of the mix" due to poor revenues or a competitive inbalance. Baseball is enjoying more or less a complete renaissance recently. As popular as football? No. But HARDLY "suffering" becuase of some false competitive inbalance.
  15. Actually,...if you bothered to read my whole post, its clear I DID wind up reading it. I clearly explained that I watched more less every show of his for over ten years and to you, thats "not listening enough"??!!!?? Again...slowly this time....I HAVE listened to him. I have watched him. I have read him. More or less everything that fell out of his smirking pie-hole since moustaches were still in style. And again...you dont get to choose the responses you want to get. Dont !@#$ing post if you dont want a response. The ideology that "ALL Republicans are evil" is balanced, huh? And wait a second.....now Maher is a "silly symbolic" thing??!!!?? Are you kidding?
  16. Dude...if you dont want responses, then dont !@#$ing post.
  17. I dont have to watch it...becuase I have been watching Bill Maher for over a decade. I was a disciple of his from back when he actually WAS fair to both sides, on Politically Incorrect. Then I followed him to HBO for years. I decided to abandon him when he lectured Americans on its "gluttony" one night. Im sorry, Im NOT going to be lectured about gluttony from a clown who spends every weekend at the !@#$ing BASECAMP of gluttony...the Playboy Mansion and Hollywood, at large. He then lurched HARD left and took a militant "ALL Republicans are eeeviiil!!...ALL the faithful are rubes" tact, while again showing utter hypocrisy on the subject by labeling the right and the faithful "intolerant and bigoted." So yes...insufferable, hypocritical prick. Excuse me for not taking seriously a schumck who ADMITS he got his political religion from celebrity cocktail parties. And by the way....the Pirates ADMITTED they dont put the money back into the club and the Yankees pay the MLB luxury tax. So chalk this as another half-assed commentary by Maher.
  18. God, what an insufferable prick. Yeah, Bill....Im sure your helping all those unwashed masses get into the next Playboy Party youre on the guest list for.
  19. NIFA sat on its hands for eight years while a Democrat was in office. The first Republican is elected County Executive and suddenly they come out of the woodwork? With that said, I had very high hopes for Mangano and to a point still do. But when he was giving speeches about "cutting waste and spending" while at the SAME time erecting HUGE signs at the entrance to every County park that read 'ED MANGANO WELCOMES YOU TO XXXX PARK", I realized we have just another NY political hack on our hands.
  20. Ya know thats not really true at all. Becuase for every "retread" that gets another shot, five "hot coordinators" get their first. Although I must admit the Wade Phillips cycle of going from DC to HC over and over and over again is getting tiresome. Just stay as a DC Wade...your half-assed blank stares as your 12-4 team ***** the bed in the first round of the playoffs is getting old.
  21. The current epidemic of snowstorms is a direct result of the failed policies of the Bush Administration. [/Pelosi]
  22. I love hearing from people on this subject, who if ticketed for 90 in a 55, would be kicking and screaming and going to court trying to get out of it.
  23. Most teams know the draft tendencies of the other teams in the league already. Nix didnt say anything here the other AFC East teams dont already know.
  24. Show US the facts that "its a given that companies all across the board are doing better than they have for the past few years... hell some would say past 6 years."
