Rod Blagojevich officially facing federal corruption charges
bmags replied to Steve9347's topic in The Filibuster
As for impeaching blago seeming 'undemocratic', he was impeached by our representatives with a whole lot state support. I really doubt this will be a slippery slope. When Madigan was drafting impeachment papers in July in didn't have a chance in hell of going through, and his popularity rating was at 30 percent then, incredibly low. -
QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Feb 12, 2009 -> 04:51 PM) His diet should be exclusively peanut butter sandwiches on peanut bread all from his factory. This is the kind of behavior we expect to see coming from Chinese food factories, not from the US... but it happens more than we realize. You'd be surprised how much cow poop is in that burger you had for lunch for example. why wouldn't I want fertilizer in my burger, rex? You are so naive. Been a vegetarian for 3 weeks now...going well.

I say smart not like, oh hey, a Woman? But more like she didn't seem to have the same stupid news anchor opinions we hear so much, she seemed to be fed up with everything, like me.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 12, 2009 -> 03:23 PM) To be honest, that kind of stuff is why I don't watch much network news. CNBC is on here at work, so I watch that all of the time. They also usually have MSNBC on the other channel, though I like it better when they have Bloomberg. Seriously, I love bloombergs content but they have to get a better format, I feel like I'm watching a high school news studio. But, I'm still in love with maria bartaromo so...CNBC it is.

QUOTE (Texsox @ Feb 11, 2009 -> 07:15 PM) I thought I knew what most of these government agencies did, until I had to research a couple. I'm not certain if I necessarily agree with the scope of what they are tasked with, but most are pretty damn amazing with all they do. I'm learning about the FDA in my drugs and behavior class, it's a pretty astounding level of trust with the public they are in charge of. That said I know less of USDA, but if they can merge and work better, that would be a good thing. But, I'd like to see a report on it.

Jonathan Rosenbaum is coming to our local theater next tuesday and they are showing this Orson Welles tv pilot or something. I hope I'll be able to go.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Feb 10, 2009 -> 04:22 PM) No cheer really loudly, collect your coats and walk out the door. Then engage in crazy orgy style celebrations with tons of celebratory alcohol. We can do both, it's called walking and smashing box at the same time. that was sexist. -

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Feb 10, 2009 -> 04:16 PM) So your best bball team in 7 years beat our worst bball team in 7 years on a miracle running jumper and you act like you won the national championship. I am sorry but for a program to bo batty over likely going to the tourney sounds a bit IL STate like. I stand corrected, KU did rush the court after we won the whole damn thing last year. yes. 'Miracle'. IL St. sounds about right. Should we have thrown alamo's on the court. Would that have been the classy KU fan who expects so much?!?! I'm just happy our players didn't whip out a pistol. I'd rush the court over that. -
QUOTE (Texsox @ Feb 9, 2009 -> 09:29 PM) Burris was not oblivious to the potential battle he was getting into. I go with courage on this one. And I really don't think he enhances Blago's legacy in any way. Not oblivious that there was a battle, oblivious to why. "I'm clean, I'm old, I did a completely mediocre job, what's wrong with me taking the seat from a criminal the entire state is waiting with baited breath to leave?" Oblivious. Stupid. Mediocre.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Feb 10, 2009 -> 05:02 PM) This was Mizzou's Super Bowl. Oh please. I saw KU fans watching with passive indifference when they beat us in football this year. edit: DO YOU REALIZE HOW BAD OUR BASKETBALL HAS BEEN!! it hasn't been just a bad team the past two years, it's been a freaking shooting with our players every weeks, brawls at athena transfers etc. etc. So yes, we are excited we are likely going to the tournament. -
No Age is so awesome. I still find songs on nouns a year later to fall in love with.

QUOTE (longshot7 @ Feb 10, 2009 -> 12:14 AM) Ingmar Bergman is my favorite director of all time, and he's Swedish. You'd be doing yourself a favor if you saw Seventh Seal, Wild Strawberries, or Persona. Haha, you're right, totally forgot about that. I've seen Seventh Seal already. Awesome film. Let the right one in, HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended.
