The Water Cooler

1.) George W. Bush lost this election for McCain. Sure, McCain made errors along the way. Examples: Saying the economy was fundamentally sound the day before it completely cratered; picking Sarah Palin; and "suspending his campaign" were all big blunders, among others. But this election wasn't really won or lost on those snafus. People saw through the bullshit and knew deep down we couldn't live with another 4 years of these bad Bush policies. 2.) The American People have rejected Republicanism roundly. At least the modern version of it. It's time for fiscal conservatives to wrestle back control over that party. Social conservatism, blending of religion and …

What is in your cup fellas? Fruit Punch & Vodka. How about you guys?

First off, congrats to Obama! Second, this article shows that GW put his country before himself with the war on Iraq. He took a lot of criticism and I think a lot of American's should at least consider what he did and give him some credit.

I figure there is a chunk of Cubs/Sox fans on here and since both teams were vying for his services thought I'd throw this out there. As a Sox fan I just hope the club is planning on finding a leadoff hitter and a centerfielder because they don't have one on the current roster.

By any chance has anyone happened to record the first three episodes of this show? After I hit stop while recording the 3rd Eppisode last night the disc had an error now the disc won't read at all. I figure it's an outside shot but worth a go.

I've had enough of this " sport". It's inhumane to run these horses to death for the benefit of gambling. These horses are all hopped up on drugs, horse owners are recklessly over-breeding these horses and thousands are slaughtered senseless as a byproduct of this industry. This coming from someone who used to love the track. I event spent two summers working at Arlington in high school. But even back then I saw signs that this wasn't something I wanted to be a part of. The stables are run by people who treat the immigrant workers like garbage and those people in turn take it out on the horses. On top of that they drug these horses on a regular basis-morphine, ecs…

Team, Just deleted a thread that appeared to be the end of a heated discussion between Bears88 and BrianBear. The thread had a tone that I felt needed to be removed from this board. My apologies if I upset anyone with this action. Peace

Hey Drunk Bomber... Just thought it was a lot more fun arguing with you than dwelling on the game. McCain is old. Later.

Second verse... same as the first! A little bit louder and a little bit worse! (for McCain) I thought McCain would be a man and have the balls to bring up some of the shit he's been saying about Obama on the trail. Face to face. But no, instead Gramps stuck with his whole "tax and spend" talk while hiding behind Sarah's skirts. Pathetic. Apparently the American People felt the same way.

The Real Obama, Part IV By Thomas Sowell Barack Obama's supporters often try to sidestep questions about his character and judgment by saying that we should stick to what they arbitrarily define as "the real issues." But Senator Obama's record on specific issues is as bad as his record of repeatedly allying himself over the years with people who make no attempt to hide their hatred of America. Among the so-called "real issues" are earmarks for Senators' pet projects, like the "bridge to nowhere." These are among the most indefensible parts of the inbred Washington political culture, which Obama has so often claimed to be against, as part of his promi…

You don't fake these photos. Unlike the Clinton's whom I'm not sure ever had an authentic moment in their lives.

Things in the polls look good. But I have little faith. I have almost no faith in an electorate and an electoral process that twice sent George W. Bush to the White House. I fear what the election of John McCain will mean to this country. I can't imagine four more years of ineffective governance. But, as you know, I see things differently than some others here. I have no intention of gloating or sulking on Wednesday. Regardless of the way this goes, all we can do is move ahead. If McCain wins, I hope the John McCain of 2000 re-emerges. This country deserves at least that. If Obama wins, I pray he's as smart and as energized as he's convinced me he is. We ne…

I think this is the right place to post this. A group of 10 people at work are going to be doing fantasy football. we'll have 2 divisions of 5 teams each, a playoff of 4 teams in weeks 15/16. Rosters will be 15 players so a 15 round draft. I will be a redraft league so we won't have keepers. Starting roster and roster limits will be.

Here are 12 of the finest double-entendres that were aired on TV & Radio 1. Pat Glenn, weightlifting commentator - "And this is Gregoriava from Bulgaria. I saw her snatch this morning and it was amazing!" 2. New Zealand Rugby Commentator - "Andrew Mehrtens loves it when Daryl Gibson comes inside him. " 3. Ted Walsh - Horse Racing Commentator - "This is really a lovely horse. I once rode her mother." 4. Harry Carpenter at the Oxford-Cambridge boat race 1977 - " Ah, isn't that nice. The wife of the Cambridge President is kissing the Cox of the Oxford crew." 5. US PGA Commentator - "One of the reasons Arnie (Arnold Palmer) is playing so well…

Instead of sitting there and reading. Why don't you actually post?

Hopefully a few of you guys like football sims and sign up. You create your own player, sign for a team, and play to get better. It's pretty cool. You can adjust your abilities and customize your guy all the time. Here's the link... http://goallineblitz.com/game/signup.pl?ref=3119375
