QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Oct 2, 2009 -> 10:46 AM) If Chicago got knocked out in the finals I'd agree. but this was not about Rio. It was about making sure Chicago didn't get it. I think alot of people were going to vote for either Rio or Chicago. I just think they all chose Rio and Chicago gets left behind. Now if Madrid wins, than I'm clueless.

I don't think this was about Chicago, but more about Rio. I think they really want to get in going in South America. Which is nice, but the jobs in Chicago would have been really nice. I personally know people that would have benefited from this.

I still love you Chicago. Blackhawks in 20 minutes!!!

Wtf. Holy upset.

This is all rather complicated. What ever happen to writing it on a piece of paper and putting it in a hat.

As a Packer fan the closer it gets to this game on Monday, the weirder it gets. ESPN usually over hypes things, but this is a big game. Its nice to see that a big hyped game isn't between two east coast teams.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 1, 2009 -> 02:55 PM) Back on that death penalty case in Texas I posted a few days ago...yesterday, Texas Governor Perry fired and replaced several of the people on the State's forensic investigation panel who are looking in to that case, and the new chairman has canceled at least 1 hearing where additional forensic testimony was to be heard. Looks like Perry doesn't want it to come out that he authorized the killing of an innocent man.

Oh not the whole godless nation crap again. Haven't we done this s*** before.

Mercenaries. I hate these guys.

Paulie is one SB short of his season high. 2

Beckham and Hudson.

I've only seen a couple of these movies. They were pretty awful. Alone in the Dark was really bad. A Sound of Thunder was on there. I thought that movie was ok. It wasn't great, but not a all time worst. The Fog remake was one of the worst movies I've ever seen.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad ins't the most popular person in Iran right now, but if bombed that will all change. Our foreign policy with Iran has been a complete disaster. Maybe we should try something different this time.

Obama needs to be strong on Israel. He needs to let them know that he is taking charge and a preemptive strike will not be tolerated. Iran has a young and pro-western youth. You don't wanna see that go away overnight.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 26, 2009 -> 10:03 PM) Its been days, and still not a one person has made the big connection, so I am going to go ahead and do this. Realize, that the same people who try to tell us that watching violent movies doesn't cause violence, seeing murder and rape, and anything else on screen isn't responsible for how people react to it. Playing video games where the player commits acts of violence/rape/murder etc, doesn't cause any of those to happen, and violent imagery in music isn't responsible for any violence that listeners might commit, etc, but somehow, this stuff... Causes this stuff... That's right, none of those other forms encourage violence, but some sort of round about way of saying that the government might come after you, in the context of something that the majority of the country doesn't even realize actually happened... Yes THAT will be actually something that causes violence. Excuse me while I LMAO at the irony here. When I quoted Bachmann, I didn't mean that her words influence people to go kill people. I just think she is part of the far right wing, that in the past has used violence. Most of those people that tell us that we can't watch violent movies or play violent video games are usually conservatives. You know the same people who say "we just want the government out of our lives".

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 10:21 PM) This was a great read. Did texas execute an innocent man? I read this too. Really sad story. It doesn't get a media coverage, but we need to stop with the death penalty. That story is just one of the many reasons that it has to go.

QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 03:23 PM) apparently ORLY and that dude are in a feud. A birther feud! This stuff is too good to be true. Crazy has no limits.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 01:51 PM) So this is what Kap has been working on while unemployed. Must see TV!! They need a guest spot by the great Orly Taitz.

Just wait till the supreme court rules for Citizens United.

I mentioned Bachmann because I think she is part of the far right.

I don't know why anyone is suprised by this. The far right has a long history in this country of being violent. It's not like it just started. I think what Bachmann said was stupid, but extreme right wing violence was around before her and will be around long after she is retired.

"If we look at American history, between 1942 and 1947, the data that was collected by the census bureau was handed over to the FBI and other organizations, at the request of President Roosevelt, and that’s how the Japanese were rounded up and put into the internment camps. I’m not saying that’s what the Administration is planning to do. But I am saying that private, personal information that was given to the census bureau in the 1940s was used against Americans to round them up." - Michele Bachmann
