Man, embrace Muscle Hamster. That’s the coolest nickname in the NFL. Dougernaut is what Rob Schneider would call him at the water cooler.

the Jays’ home crowd saw their team get screwed by replay:

Royals pitcher Jeremy Guthrie immediately thought of what happened the last time the Jays’ home crowd saw their team get screwed by replay

<3 u jguts

And he got more outs than LaTroy Hawkins did yesterday....

Yes. Teams making back-to-back WS appearances is the worst and not historic.

The Royals winning it all would definitely be a bigger deal than the Blue Jays, in spite of them reaching the WS last year.

No one who says ‘I hate to be that guy’ ever hesitates to be that guy.

Go Royals

Point 1, Politicians should be judged by their political skills, not by their connection to scandals that do not effect their political abilities.

“To be honest about the types of people that politicians are, in both parties, is not the same as throwing one’s hands up and saying it doesn’t matter who wins.”

We are a republic. It helps to start with facts before ranting about how the US isn’t something it isn’t. We don’t compare ourselves to a foreign nation that is the size of one US state.

While you wrap yourself snug in bed with the warm delusion of having a say in how your country runs....

You're right, we don't have a democracy, we have a republic.

“And this is why I hate the “both parties are evil/feckless/corrupt” line. It’s lazy intellectual thinking”

I wouldn’t call Obama a god-king, but he’s a celebrity, and his acolytes are impossible to convince that he hasn’t lived up to the image they have of him. W., on the other hand, was easily brought down to earth because not even circa-2005 neocons believed he was all that capable. Funny how the “intellectual” left has…

The 3rd party thing is so important, we need people in this country to be intelligent enough to look past red vs blue (that will never happen) I think Sanders and Ron Paul both were decent candidates that would have been outside of the normal parties if you could succeed that way. I get so annoyed with people I know…

Which is exactly the point Burnenko’s making — you’re voting for them just because they’re not the other guys. Not a solid strategy.

I know Dr. Carson left the Democrat Plantation so he must be an Uncle Tom?

Whenever we finally grow up enough to realize we don’t need polished facsimiles of people in suits saying stupid shit to get elected and start to actually elect people for what they have done, not what they promise or who they haven’t slept with, insulted, or what number wife they are on, the better.
