  1. Bernie doesn't need to register as a D or R, that's the problem with this country now! If he keeps working for the people of this country, that's all the matters.
  2. QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 14, 2017 -> 10:04 PM) Their first strike could wipe Hawaii off the map or even parts of the mainland if our defense system doesn't do its job. But who gets hit by the first nuke if they fire a few? Their words are fighting words. If we were saying this type of crap to say, China, that North Korea is saying to us, you don't think they'd strike us? greg NK will not launch nukes... right now they are on thin ice with even their allies. If they launch anything at anyone, there will be destructive consequences and Kim Jong-un definitely likes to breathe... he isn't suicidal.
  3. Trump has been called a lot worst than a white supremacist. If ESPN wants to can her, that's their right, but Trump should keep his nose out of it.
  4. QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Sep 13, 2017 -> 12:10 PM) Sanders will introduce universal health care, backed by 15 Democrats I think this is actually up to 17 now. Hopeful this continues to gain support. Insurance companies are preparing the lobbying money.
  5. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 12, 2017 -> 08:49 AM) U2 bumped us to a day game. Not even kidding They are playing at Arrowhead though.
  6. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 25, 2017 -> 12:19 PM) Was he the only black person besides those in Trump's traveling party there? Amazing he got to sit right in back and in the camera. I'm not surprised, Trump wants to push the POC like me agenda.
  7. QUOTE (knightni @ Aug 25, 2017 -> 11:14 AM) A little Reddit humor. https://i.redd.it/hjdtm4uu3bhz.png The real humor is none of those girls are remotely attractive. lmao
  8. QUOTE (Knuckles @ Aug 24, 2017 -> 09:27 PM) "Déjà vu," said the veteran quarterback, who previously lost his starting job in Tampa when the Bucs made Jameis Winston the first-overall pick in the draft back in 2015. Shut up and earn the job. Yeah, that's the rhetoric of a loser. Step up your game, competition is good.
  9. Miggy can't throw punches to save his life.
  10. QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 24, 2017 -> 12:38 PM) I just can't get over how annoying Glennon's press conference answers are. I haven't been watching but do you care to elaborate?
  11. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 24, 2017 -> 11:56 AM) What if her name was CHELSEA CLINTON?!?!?!?! /greg 50 MILLION DOLLARS!??!?!?!?! WHO'D YOU THINK YOU KIDNAPPED, CHELSEA CLINTON?
  12. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 24, 2017 -> 10:56 AM) Her biggest flaw was her name. If she was named Jackie Smith, or even Belinda FartKnocker, she would have won. But Hillary Clinton has such a negative connotation, it was the final nail in the coffin. You think so? I think finding out about her emails during the primary sunk her mostly. People underestimated the power of the progressive base that voted 3rd party or stayed home.
  13. QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 24, 2017 -> 09:26 AM) I think its pretty clear at this point that there was no changing his base's mind. Man people really need to understand that Trump's base is his base. Hillary won the popular vote by over 3 million votes and lost the electorate. People just did not show up the polls to make sure Trump wasn't' elected. I guarantee you will see a bigger turnout in 2020, if he hasn't resigned by then. With all that being said, the onus is still on Hillary for losing to such a weak opponent, she herself was so weak that she couldn't get people excited enough to go out and vote for her on election day, which is sad. Trump definitely woke people up, which may be a good thing for the complacent people in this country.
  14. QUOTE (raBBit @ Aug 23, 2017 -> 12:41 PM) A valid question that will never be answered. He's forever tainted. To me, he was best P4P talent and I think his resume is probably P4P best ever too. I watched him make some of his quotes from the last time he got popped and saw some of his tweets pertaining to his alleged steroid use and the guy just looks like more of an asshat than possible. He's such a terrible liar too. If I were him I'd be legitimately paranoid because it has to be so hard to keep up with all of the lies and inconsistencies that come out of his mouth. For those who don't know, he said he failed his last drug test because of a generic sex pill. The same substance in the sex pill would be indicative of use of a cycling agent to get off steroids. He's talking to Rogan and says, "I was with a guy and he told me he had some pills and I said, 'I don't do drugs' (this is after he was popped for cocaine) and the guy explained it was just generic cialis and it's a lot of fun." Within five minutes they start talking about gas station dick pills and Jones says he's been using them for a while. Unbelievable this guy. What a waste of talent. So disappointing. Reminds me Bonds, he didn't need to cheat but for whatever reason, he did.
  15. It would be funny if this dude was doing it as an epic troll act.
  16. Isn't there one in Gurnee right before you reach the outlet mall in Kenosha or Six Flags?
  17. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 23, 2017 -> 10:06 AM) There have been a handful of convictions, but the vast majority of the Bundy group at both Oregon and Bunkerville in 2014 are being acquitted of crimes they were photographed and filmed committing, such as pointing weapons at federal law enforcement. No convictions for 4 men in Bundy standoff case Can anyone try to explain this? I mean, if you're an armed goon going against the government, you should be put in the slammer for an extended period of time.
  18. I just don't get why? The guy is gifted athletic beast. Was he always roiding up when he was laying the smackdown on opponents?
  19. QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Aug 23, 2017 -> 09:34 AM) They probably had to get home to relieve their "excitement". :lol:
  20. Was there really any doubt that the rally wouldn't be an unmitigated disaster?
  21. QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Aug 22, 2017 -> 08:15 PM) Trump apparently got into a profanity-laced argument with McConnell because he didn't protect him from Russia investigation. Link?
  22. I just saw the episode. I liked it but the rushed nature of the season is uber frustrating, unless Westeros is really the state of Rhode Island.
  23. QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 21, 2017 -> 12:49 PM) Every human is different. Studies show that millennials would rather be a part of something big and depended upon to do work that makes a difference than just receive a paycheck. I have a whole department of millennials and, while I'd agree with that, I have some issues with it. No generation has been more aware of its value. Now, in my case, I have young marketers in my department who could go get a new job in 5 seconds. Hell, I'm technically a millennial, and I could go get a new job in a second, too. It's with that understanding that we strive to keep them happy monetarily BEFORE they feel the need to start looking for better alternative. I also tend to dole out responsibility almost too early rather than too late. This results in each team member (department size of 10) having a defined role with a defined career path and a ton of interaction with me as the buffer to the President and the CEO. We also have a lot of events and I order food for the department because the little s*** counts. It works. That said, there's a million ways to slice it, and I'm only talking about those in the business world in a marketing department of a larger company. Also, it pays to ask them about their personal lives. They really respond well to you caring (or acting like you care if you must) about their personal lives and also remembering to follow up when they tell you something big is coming. I also tend to serve as a first-wave of advice for things like owning homes, investing, etc, and they know they can come to me with any work-related issue. I've been in my current position for 3 years and have yet to have one of them quit their job. I've had to fire a handful, but them's the shakes. You heartless prick... should should should should
  24. Gotta love these guys becoming unhinged. They sense the walls closing in, I don't blame them.
  25. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 18, 2017 -> 08:18 AM) Pressure mounts on lawmaker who posted Trump assassination comment https://www.cbsnews.com/news/pressure-mount...nation-comment/ KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- A Missouri lawmaker acknowledged Thursday that she posted and later deleted a comment on Facebook about hoping for President Trump's assassination, saying she was frustrated with the president's response to the white supremacist rally and violence in Charlottesville, Virginia. Democratic state Sen. Maria Chappelle-Nadal said she was wrong for writing the post and didn't mean what she said, but she refused calls to resign. She said she wrote "I hope Trump is assassinated!" in response to a post that suggested Vice President Mike Pence would try to have Trump removed from office. "What I wrote down on my private Facebook page, was it wrong? Absolutely," she told The Associated Press. "But I am going to continue to talk about the anger and the frustration that led to that." The post drew a swift rebuke, including calls from top Democrats for her resignation. Among them were Missouri Senate Democratic Leader Gina Walsh, who condemned Chappelle-Nadal's post as "horrible." The chairman of the Missouri Democratic Party, Stephen Webber, said the comments were "indefensible" and the party "will absolutely not tolerate calls for the assassination of the president." "I condemn it. It's outrageous," added Democratic U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill, the state's senior senator. "And she should resign." Missouri's Republican Gov. Eric Greitens and the state Republican party also called for her resignation, but Chappelle-Nadal said she had no intention of doing so. "I refuse to resign for exercising my First Amendment rights, even though what I said was wrong," she said. The U.S. Secret Service released a statement saying it looks into all threats against the president, "whether they be direct, implied, or comments in passing." Chappelle-Nadal, from the St. Louis suburb of University City, said constituents in her predominantly black district are concerned about how Trump blamed "both sides" of the clashes in Charlottesville. The violence included a man slamming his car into people protesting against the white supremacist rally, killing one woman and injuring more than a dozen other people. "By our president saying things such as he does, supporting white supremacy and the Nazis and KKK, it's causing a lot of trauma," Chappelle-Nadal said. Wow. She does indeed need to step down. You can't have representatives calling for stuff like that, it will rile people up.
