We spend $1 trillion per year on military, intelligence, and all other security apparatuses, this figure includes the wars. That is more in defense spending than the military spending for the next 10 countries in the world combined. We have two of the most wonderful defense systems that no other industrialized nation,…

The second amendment was written to protect a developing nation without a national full-time military from any attacks from powers outside or within the population. It was not written by the framers to make certain that I could have access to a modified AR-15, a Sig Sauer with laser sightings, and a 50 caliber hand…

It stil would have happened, it just wouldn't have been well armed kindergarteners executed, but rather unarmed preschoolers, who have aim issues, and can't control the kickback when firing.

So race baiting can get you suspended, but plagiarism doesn't. Certain levels of sexual harassment can get you either promoted or suspended. Lacking the ability to articulate words as on air talent can have your contract extended, and having an opinion can result in burned bridges.

Great list. As noted by others the 3, 4, 5 could be switched around but even in this format I wouldn't feel anyone was slighted. If it extended I'd include Moss and Andretti, as well as adding Hamilton to the list of current drivers.

Yea this whole thing went on for 45 mins, while he was receiving texts, calls and emails from the Romney campaign telling him they would win Ohio. They finally had to bring out Barone to explain math to him. The stuff that preceded this was much better. By the time Barone was on set Rove was back tracking his reaction…

To expand on your excellent point. When the lines in LA ceased to operate the politicians basically just shut it down and locked up the gates. My uncle is an engineer involved in many of the building and retrofitting projects in and around LA. When it is a downtown LA project he has taken me into the old area now…

It seems as if somebody has to die on the field before any of this changes. It is obviously an awful thing to say, but it is the only thing that is really going to change anything. And it has to be a star player. Paralysis makes people sad, but nothing happens, the player is forgotten by most of the public, till ESPN…

I am sorry but first IDIOT! Sociopath whether referring to Psychopath or a person with an Anti-Social Personality disorder does not really apply to an internet discussion where someone disagrees with you. Don't use descriptions you do not understand. I used the name above to see if calling you a name would instantly…

Could the foot be in Glenn's mouth when the SUV runs it over?

To me at least this just strengthens my atheism. Any god would have had the wife and kid(s) out of the car in the house and Glenn Beck stuck, faulty seat belt release, as the SUV slid down the hill. I am not saying he has to die, but this guy has spouted enough scare mongering garbage that a scary tumble down the hill…

I see what you are saying, but everyone seems to missing a key piece of evidence from frame 313, you can see the head move back and to the left. Watch it closely, back and to the left. The head cannot move, back and to the left, unless there was a second spitter, and if there was a second spitter on the gravelly road…

+1 from the QB who just got a red card for high sticking.

Your ideas are intriguing to me, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

A lot of the problem here is that the subject is being described by the NFL's terms. The conversation even on this site somewhat has mostly been framed in the terms the owners have been pressing. Management vs Labor, (pensions, right to fire someone, etc) and true that is fact, but it is not accurate. This is not GM…

That would have been the perfect description. ProBowl football. Thanks.

The players have to make the game unwatchable. The Commish is only going to budge to network partners or 32 owners saying end the lockout. People will keep watching poorly officiated games with controversial outcomes. It might even drive casual viewership because controversy seems to do that. But a game played at the…

I know it was, but I just hate that lazy line of thinking, so I do apologize for the overreaction.

Um....China who has problems keeping the lights on in their biggest cities and still has a majority of their population lacking access to potable water. China who is now facing a crazy 5-1 male to female ratio because of the 1 child policy. China who wants to start skirmishes with Taiwan, Japan, Vietnam, the…

We don't care about "those" people. They are not football coaches. They are disgusting poors who smell like sweat and work and do not live marvelous lives.
