He'll be in jail or signed with an agent by mid-season.

What's a Jayhawker??? Didn't they own some of my kin back in the 1800's??

All this bickering does is ensure that both parties get on board and keep the Patriot Act alive and well. No one wants the blame for the next 9/11, even if it means surrendering civil liberties we would have never considered giving up.

Can't wait! Where do I get my barcode? I hope they install the phone taps soon...

Actually methinks it was the other way around, no? Kansas was a free state, Missouri a slave state, and the Jayhawkers would come over the border and murder and burn the slave owning 'show me' staters, after some slave-owning Missourians had razed Lawrence to the ground.

John Brown and Silas Soule were Jayhawks I believe.

(just setting the record straight, I hope )

Edit: Whoops, didn't read far enough to see Zepps correction. You're a good man!

To be fair, Kansas came into the union as a Free State, and it is a proud part of of its tradition. One of the best brew pubs in the country is the Free State Brewery. Jayhawkers tangled with the pro-slavery thugs in Missouri.

I'm not taking your comment as anything other than razzing, but I did want to avoid people thinking that Kansas was pro-slavery when they were fervently the opposite.

That's good because that's just what it was.

Me and you will be just fine as long as you don't try to think for me or put words in my mouth. You have not been around long enough to know my politics.

I am biased towards the Libertarian party. My party. I am bised when it comes to The US Army. My branch of service. I am biased when it comes to any soldiers fighting for my country.

I hate what politics have become and I consider most in Washington assholes. That's based on their performance the last 10 years. I am waiting for America to wake up and get off their asses and vote some of these crooks out of office. In the meantime I will cool out here in Italy and catch some rays,fish and my wife. Not in that order.

[Teal]

No, I think he means that there's more blame to go around than what's been going around. They are the topics of the stories he mentioned...

Um.......NO.

Teal sumed up my thoughts well. He can read.

St Louis does have schools right?

As far as this thread. Just making a point. Politics suck. People should stop pointing fingers and grandstanding.

Yeah, I can read. You and Teal just have an extremely biased point of view, so you do not see the hypocrisy in your comments.

I thought we'd settled this already...

War for oil? I thought about that yesterday as I was paying my 2.65 per gallon for cheap gas. Guess that theory goes out the window.

how naive Teal, to think that Bush & The US's control of the oil in Iraq would somehow trickle down to us common folks paying at the pump.
The "War For Oil" is not about doing something to lower prices....it's about controlling more of the supply and big $$$ for the oil companies and all the benefactors (not us). Don't you know that China was about to sign oil contracts with Sadam before we went over there and nulified that by outing his ass?

[JackB1]

Looks like a lot of finger pointers could have stopped Bin Laden well before 9/11. Looks like Bush isn't the only one that catered to the Saudis.

If you read further into the article you would have saw that the Clinton adminitration legally couldn't hold Bin Laden at that time.....and that was 1996....well before he approached the "Enemy #1" status he did after 9/11. Point is, after 9/11 Bush did let him slip away and hardly seems concerned with him anymore. You could make the same argument for Sadam.......why didn't previous administrations take him out of power?
He didn't just begin his atrocities during Bush's administration.

[bdoughty]

Out of retirement and coming to the mound




JackB... Er I mean John your thoughts on the shoving the Liberal agenda down the necks of people in sports gaming forums.




Your thoughts on Bush.






Any final thoughts




That pretty much sums it up...

Jack I did read the whole article. I will only answer that with a hearty . Do you have any of Clintons DNA saved on a shirt somewhere? You give your love to him so blindly. He didn't walk on water man.

Couldn't legally hold him??
OK. Let's just forget about the first bombing of WTC in 93 and key on the other 7 attacks on us he was behind before 9/11. WTF were they waiting on??

If you buy that horseshit I can set you up in a place where the streets are paved with gold and little munchkins sing you to sleep everynight.

Man I was in Mogadishu in 93 and we all knew that Bin Laden was behind and funded Aidid. What did we do? We pulled out. Delta Force and the 75th Ranger Regiment and we pulled out. We had the best of the best there and we let him go. We lost 19 men there and we were pulled out with nothing. I lost all respect for Clinton at that point. Hell everyone that was in that fight lost respect for him.

Bin Laden denied involvment in that one. But the Somalian milita spoke of him like he was their leader. Pulling us out the way Clinton did made us look like cowards to Bin Laden.

I do agree with you about Saddam. His ass shold have be gone years ago. And that makes my point. Playing politics suck. The past few Presidents have cared more about cash than their own country's security. I could give a $hit less about what party they were from. They all dropped the ball.

Here's to the boys of B Co-3/75.

Tell 'em about it, Dog...all this s*** means nothing standing next to one who's seen it firsthand.

Okay I need to heed my own advice and put Rocker away for the night.

[FatPitcher]

You can't really blame Bush 1 and Clinton for not having the balls to do what needed to be done. Even if they had succeeded, their approval numbers would have dropped severely as the complacent, all-knowing public came to the conclusion that it was a costly and unnecessary endeavor.
