Russia and China are both working on new fighter planes and I read something about the F-22 being a lot more capable in air-to-air combat than the F-35, who sacrifices dogfighting ability for utility. Staying one step ahead isn't a bad thing. I really dont mind our defense spending all that much, it costs a lot to maintain a military. Sure, the wars have been kinda ugly, but that's the nature of the beast.

You underestimate the F-22's ability to regulate the financial sector.

Haha, this is pretty funny. He knows who Reinsdorf is though. Dont worry Barry, I still <3 you.

You gotta give Butler a lot of credit.

Jukes is playing well.

This is Duke's chance.

The kick part of Buehrle's play was pretty impressive. The reaction time to stick your foot out like that is unbelievable.

Hope springs eternal after an opening day like that. Cant start the season off much better.

The reason people call the F-22 ridiculous is that the things are so grossly overpowered that they've made the very concept of fighter jets obsolete. Besides, those planes are not being made to kill any Iraqi's or Afghans.

Would you rather have a bunch of F-22's or 60,000 more art teachers? Seriously, ask yourself that question.

Breaking news: War is not cheap. Sometime we have to assert ourselves to other countries and remind them who's boss.

Some guy managed to jump off the Empire State Building; which, if you have ever been up there, is damn near impossible to do.

The White Sox have been known to buck computer simulations for a while now. Even the guy from BP said something along the lines of "the White Sox have been proving us wrong, we cannot figure out why."

Because we need people buying heroin and crystal from Walgreens.

Good the know the Mexican army has helicopters.

Yea but things get way too chaotic to coordinate attacks enough to really wipe out either country completely. I'm pretty sure a lot of the nuclear subs will go completely dark once the bombs start flying, nobody will know what has already been hit and what hasn't. I wrote a paper on the Healthcare debate titled "Partisanship and Healthcare, Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Nuclear Option" earlier this semester.

Through the purity and essence of our natural bodily fluids.

In Nuclear war the first couple rounds of missiles are directed at the other countries defense shield and offensive silo's. Ruin the other sides ability to wage nuclear war. So it wont be all that bad on the population centers, maybe a couple would be hit but there's way too many in both countries to really make it a priority to destroy them. No way there would be 90-95% casualty rate... probably more like 40%.

I dont know what to think about the new Hold Steady single.

thank god.

Then they'll be accountable for a lot of dead grandma's. The cycle continues.

Haha, nice Tex.

They wont get Congress or the WH if they run on repealing the parts of the bill concerning pre-existing conditions or the age limits.

Healthcare passes, ACORN gets shut down. UUURGGHHHH TEA PARTY HAPPY OR SAD Partisan joking aside, ACORN is probably just dissolving and getting ready to switch names. Too much bad press associated with their old label.

I can handle politicians posturing and acting like idiots on the campaign trail to pander, but not in congress (especially when they dont have the floor). I guess this is the way things are headed though, some people like it when lawmakers act like this while in session. It just feels like our government is turning into a
