  1. Princeton Physicist Says GW "Science" is Mistaken. In 1991, Happer was appointed director of energy research for the US Department of Energy. In 1993, he testified before Congress that the scientific data didn't support widespread fears about the dangers of the ozone hole and global warming, remarks that caused then-Vice President Al Gore to fire him. "I was told that science was not going to intrude on public policy", he said. "I did not need the job that badly". Sea Ice Ends Year at Same Level as 1979 650 International Scientists Now Denying... Again, this is not a diatribe saying we shouldn't do a better job with the environment. It's simply pointing out that there are over $45 TRILLION of proposals at stake if this "Climate Change" A-Holes keep up the bully pulpit.
  2. I'm still absolutely baffled by this. What the hell would make Ralph pony up money for Dick Jauron at that point in the season? Like another team was going to swoop in and hire him for a ton of jack? It makes no sense whatsoever.
  3. I'm betting that he was as good on the phone with Dell as he has been in this thread. But everyone else is an idiot.
  4. Another child who obviously got left behind.
  5. Exactly. Imagine Napolean turning in his sword and heading home. I think the most amazing thing about him was his ability to learn from his own mistakes - actually look at things that obviously didn't work and NOT DO THEM AGAIN. I think Washington would weep at what our "Democracy" has become.
  6. I saw Peppers get earholed by the Cardinals FB last week. Full marks to the Pep for having the wheels to get across the field but when you get absolutely labeled by a guy like that...
  7. It is amusing, though not quite as much as it would have been if any politician over the last decade had pretended to see what was going on and understood what was coming. You know, the way I've been pointing out the Clinton economy being a fallacy pretty much forever. As far as the rest of it goes: This board, much like all politics in America, has degraded into a cesspool. About the only reason there was EVER intelligent discourse here was because BiB knew how to frame a topic. When he "left", there really wasn't anyone who could replace that and voices like Debbie, Molson, RiO, etc showed exactly what the two party system really is. It gets the effort from me that it deserves. You may want to revisit some of your recent "work" - just to see what standard you think you're holding up. The funny part about those who tell me I sound like a "bitter old man" is it's usually someone who's significantly older than I am. Perhaps you should revisit your beliefs and ask yourself why you haven't gained the required wisdom at this point.
  8. I never said all humans suck. Most politicians suck and most government sucks. I'm sorry you have a hard time facing it, just as I'm sorry so many people involved in politics continue to ignore the incredible transgressions and instead focus on what the other side is doing and how it's somehow worse. Well go ahead and enlighten us on a few of those "several" reasons, instead of giving us another liberal soundbyte. You are a writer, after all. Or is it too much trouble to tell us how the three cities (and Buffalo) aren't continuing to wane despite DECADES of liberal "leadership"?
  9. I read the article. I also read your post, which was the typical response of a defensive partisan parrot head. It offered nothing of actual substance, instead using the tried and true "the guy defended the hated Bush at some point, therefore everything he writes is obviously a radical right wing neocon falsehood". You're correct, it didn't require much thought to point out your stupidity. I like how the fact that I consistently point out idiocy is somehow a bad thing. As if your incessant defense of liberalism is somehow refreshing.
  10. Doesn't change any of the facts in the article or that complete liberal control hasn't fixed anything in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, or Buffalo. But it's a gigantic surprise to me that a liberal apologist would ignore that completely.
  11. Doesn't matter. Partisans and lemmings still believe Bill Clinton was somehow responsible for the "terrific" economy of the 1990s, ignoring that the entire thing was a total fallacy and we're going to pay for it for generations to come.
  12. It's 2009. Your 2002 "expensive Dell" is the equivalent of a horse drawn carriage against a ZR1. And your problem had nothing to do with your "Dell drives". It's pretty obvious you don't know a lot about computers or business. If you don't buy a PC every 3 or 4 years, no vendor is going to give a flying crap about you because you end up costing them money. PC companies are incredibly cyclical animals. Gateway and HPQ were both on the verge of complete collapse not too long ago. The market/margins/greed forces each of them to make decisions and generally in the short term they make bad ones. It is what it is.
  13. Good for him. There are too many people willing to toe the corporate line in this world - especially in sports.
  14. I've never had any problem getting a raise in a good company. Any company that doesn't pay for merit will have good employees in the rearview mirror pretty quickly. In fact, I've never had to ask for a raise.
  15. That's very true. I much prefer being lied to by someone with diction. I was ready to stab McCain because he kept saying "My friends". At least Mr. Obama has the ability to speak extemporaneously.
  16. Now head back to the fitness forum and give everyone some more of that really sound advice, "Karl". You're a complete !@#$ing idiot.
