The final Bush Press conference
PastaJoe replied to Bishop Hedd's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Quite the opposite; he didn't mastermind it, he neglected to heed the warnings from the previous administration, and instead was influenced by Cheney & Co. that spreading democracy to Iraq by the point of a gun would solve our Middle East problems, instead of concentrating on the real threat to America. -
Struggling against a team that's near the bottom of their conference isn't something to cheer about. Your glass must be full of kool-aid. I look at the team realistically, not a blind supporter who accepts mediocre play, which they've had for most of the season. Miller is unsteady; makes some great saves then gives up soft goals. The power play is terrible, and the defense plays too soft. Getting rid of players like Tallinder, Max, and Connolly are overdue.

It wasn't a great win, a great win is when they get an early lead and then keep the pressure on the other team. They started this game the same as against Chicago, getting outhustled and outscored. Miller continues to have problems with long shots from the point. Connolly is more of a defensive liability than an offensive asset. They got 2 points, but they didn't put the effort in until the game was halfway over.

2 minutes of action and 5 hours and 58 minutes of embarrassing explainations.

Park the car, let them take turns warming up in the car until the bus comes, then say goodbye to the old lady and friend, and offer to take the woman for a drink.

Sorry Francis, I'm past the enlistment age. You'll have to share your soap with someone else. -

Based on your personal experience in the showers? Lighten up, Francis. -

Yeah, because all the gays that do and have served in the military are less patriotic and don't follow the codes of conduct like straight soldiers. -

Madison, Wis. has a new regime? -
Think about the opportunity cost of not taking the job; when will you find another one like this that's a good fit. As long as you're getting a decent wage, take the job. Being happy is more important than money. And try asking for something like vacation time. Some places make you wait a year before you get 2 weeks, ask for it in the first year. Or if they give 2 weeks, ask to start at 3.

The final Bush Press conference

Air Force 1 would not be restricted from flight, it's the flying command center. And they train to be "wheels up" in a short amount of time. They would follow the same protocol as if there was an incoming nuclear strike. Andy Card should have grabbed him and said, "we have to go, now!". -
Do you consider the intangible cost of the harm to the environment and being held hostage to the unstable Middle East, which we would treat like Africa if not for their oil?

The final Bush Press conference
PastaJoe replied to Bishop Hedd's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
He should have left as soon as he was told there was a crisis. What if he was told there were Russian ICBMs on the way, would he still finish the story? Deer in the headlights moment. Don't take the job if you can't handle it. And his administration's obsession with Iraq instead of al Queda, after the Millinium bombing was stopped and they were warned by the outgoing Clinton administration will forever be on their heads. Bush points out that we haven't been attacked since 9/11. Yeah, but what did you do to prevent 9/11? Strike 1, 9/11. Strike 2, Iraq. Strike 3, Katrina. You're out! -
I think offering to get a Bills tattoo would show a real committment to the cause.

(CNN) — Sarah Palin has complained repeatedly that she was given unfair treatment by the media during her rapid political ascent last year. But Mike Huckabee – a potential rival for Palin in 2012 should they both decide to seek the White House – apparently doesn’t agree. In an interview in the current issue of Esquire, Huckabee speaks sympathetically of Palin, saying she had been subjected to “sexist things that would never have been asked of a male candidate.” But he pushed back against Palin’s assertion that high-profile journalists – particularly Katie Couric of CBS – were biased in their interviews with her. “Now I must say I did not think that either the Charlie Gibson interview or the Katie Couric interviews were unfair,” Huckabee said. “In fact, if anything, Katie Couric was extraordinarily gentle, even helpful. [Palin] just … I don't know what happened. I can’t explain it. It was not a good interview. I’m being charitable.” Since losing his bid for the GOP nomination last year, Mike Huckabee hasn’t been shy about criticizing some of the politicians he might face in a 2012 Republican primary battle – but Mitt Romney has remained his favorite target. In his new book, Huckabee wrote that Romney was "anything but conservative until he changed the light bulbs in his chandelier in time to run for president.”

I could understand if someone voted no to a question of the main cause of global warming, but not the fact that it exists.

The final Bush Press conference

He'll replace Hoover as that future generation's personification of bad times; whenever he's mentioned people will associate his name with bad economic and international decisions, as they continue to pay off the debts left by his policies. Hoover will be forgotten, like people now don't remember Buchanan, who was ineffective in preventing the Civil War. I wonder who people used to personify bad times with before Hoover. -
Cripes, double digit people voting No. I was wondering what people in the Bush administration were doing in their last week, now I know.

The great fallacy of the naysayers is the belief that the phrase Global Warming means that we should just see warmer temperatures everywhere, while the fact is that it encompasses the total effects that the increase in the average temperature of the atmosphere cause, including rising ocean levels that affect the weather, releasing more moisture into the atmosphere, and leading to increased weather fluctuations, both hot and cold.

In other news, animals throughout the KC zoo have been observed hiding their food today. Some of the smaller mammals are also hiding from view.

If you're looking for an all inclusive where they include 2 adults and 2 kids, I think you have to try someplace like Thailand. That's illegal in most countries.

Well The Chiefs Are Now Ahead Of Us

Well at least he earned some time off. -
New England will pick him up late in the draft, and in a few years he'll be taking over for an injured Matt Cassel, and so on and so on...
