  1. QUOTE (mr_genius @ Sep 18, 2008 -> 05:54 PM) They especially despise McCain's stance on immigration. former stance.
  2. QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Sep 18, 2008 -> 04:53 PM) I have been yelled at in several different replies that the party isn't mentioned when the story concerns local officials like govenors and state reps, but IS mentioned when it references congressmen. Just pointing out that ommission, however minor to the story it may be. How do you yell with type? Listen, if you want to have an honest discussion on this, let's have it. I've not been crusading in this thread with righteous indignation, I've not been yelling. You are making your points and I'm making mine, so let's not always take everything to an extreme.
  3. this thread has either been way over my head or way down in the gutter.
  4. QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Sep 18, 2008 -> 08:03 PM) He seemed like he didn't want to admit that he would meet with Zapatero. Maybe Spain is now part of the spanish axis of evil. it's a lot crazier when you listen to it though.
  5. So McCain doesn't know who the President of Spain is...
  6. Seriously the fact that this has boiled down to party identification being the barometer of bias is silly. In some stories, the reporter may not find it important. In others, like the case of republicans who railed against gay rights but they themselves were in gay activities, I find it relevant.
  7. I feel like somebody else was talking about it, but it may have been you.
  8. these emails obtained illegally would undoubtedly not be allowed against her. If they reach the media, though, it will be up to them to decide to take the risk. Because they would be publishing info they know was obtained illegally. If the hacker anonymous puts up the info on his own site, then the paper can report that, however.
  9. QUOTE (MurcieOne @ Sep 17, 2008 -> 06:37 PM) I have a sneaking suspicion that Richard may get lit up tonight. naw, you can't spell clayton without CY
  10. I could've told you the timeline guys, you just needed to ask.
  11. My money is on Clayton Richard's 3rd step to becoming cy young.
  12. from the article, had me dying: "Sarah Palin was also the mayor of a very small town. To tell the truth, this is where my qualifications begin to outstrip even hers. I have never been the mayor of anything. I can’t even spell right. I had help with the above, but now— Murray, note to Murray: do not correct what follows. Lets shoe the people how I rilly spel Mooray and punshuate so thay can c how reglar I am, and ther 4 fit to leed the nashun, do to: not sum mistir fansy pans. OK Mooray. Get corecting agin! Thanks, Murray, you’re fabulous. Very good at what you do. Actually, Murray, come to think of it, you are so good, I suspect you are some kind of Élite. You are fired, Murray, as soon as this article is done. I’m going to hire someone Regular, who is not so excellent, and lives off the salt of the land and the fat of his brow and the sweat of his earth. Although I hope he’s not a screw-up. "
  13. it'll have you busy for a while, that's for sure. Hint, though: Do read the foot notes, they are sometimes tedious but other times awesome. not foot notes end notes
  14. this is way tooo funny. Please read this. i've never laughed harder at print in my life. http://www.newyorker.com/humor/2008/09/22/...currentPage=all
  15. That's so cool that you had him. Infinite Jest just blew me away, I've never laughed so hard or felt so badly for characters as I did in that book. I think it would be amazing to have a teacher like that. In the journalism school I do have some really good writers and some really interesting people as well, though. God damn it. I'm gonna go read consider the lobster again tomorrow.
  16. wouldn't the dream scenario be that we win out the rest of the year?
  17. Well I think we are seeing eye to eye now. I understand now what you were saying with the pendulum. Mizzou changing to a dry-campus has done wonders for it in terms of beauty on campus and improvements to the Greek community. I understand that with that mired past comes the reputation with that past. It's just even when I see the joke that you made, it is annoying. At the very least, I find it encouraging the reputation my non-Greek friends associate now than when we first arrived, when I had the same associations, and in fact could never see myself being in one. It's harder, once you intimately get to know the system, like I did, or just intimately get to know people in it, like my friends, to continue those negative thoughts when you have positive ones confronting them. I'd be curious to see what it looks like in 10 years.
