Damn man, I hope this doesn't get any worse. Another 700 points down today? When the hell does it end? The market isn't getting any warm fuzzy feeling from this dingbat President. If he can't f*cking LEAD he should step down now and let someone else do it. Of course, we have to insist that Cheney leave with him or we'll be in 7 wars before January. A recap of what 8 years of Republican Leadership gives us: * Multiple wars with no end in sight * An economic depression (or deep deep recession at best) * Your phone and email is all under surveillance * 2 new Pro-Life Supremes * A $10 trillion deficit * No credibility left on foreign policy... …

Just quoting you from September 7th: "McCain is going to win this election. I guarantee it." You still standing by this statement? If the opposite occurs, I will be expecting you to eat crow. Peace

Being Barry Goldwater's granddaughter and living in Arizona, one would assume that I would be voting for our state's senator, John McCain. I am still struck by certain 'dyed in the wool' Republicans who are on the fence this election, as it seems like a no-brainer to me. Myself, along with my siblings and a few cousins, will not be supporting the Republican presidential candidates this year. We believe strongly in what our grandfather stood for: honesty, integrity, and personal freedom, free from political maneuvering and fear tactics. I learned a lot about my grandfather while producing the documentary, Mr. Conservative Goldwater on Goldwater. Our generation of Gol…

I've noticed many of you guys are from places like Ireland, Sweden, Chile, Arizona, Los Angeles, etc. I was just wondering you became Bears fans? Were you born here then moved due to money issues or a new job? Or was it a choice growing up to just pick a team and it happened to be the Bears?

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…

Not to sounds harsh, but as I've read, the Los Angeles and California taxpayers are footing a serious bill for the Jackson funeral. From my understanding, it sounds like it should be a cost that both the Jackson family and the promotion company, AEG, should be paying. The Staples Center and surround Theater hold about 25,000 people at best, and my understanding is the Jackson family had about half that held for them. it kind of almost sounds like a private ceremony and promotion. I just don't feel it's right in this economy for the taxpayers to be footing the bill when both the Jackson family and AEG have the means to foot this bill and are making money off it. The t…

LOL! DUMBEST CAMPAIGN STUNT EVER!

http://www.mdc.edu/Home/Press/rally.htm LOL! This tells you all you need to know about this ACORN flap. It's pure political scapegoating. Boogyman stuff! And on the Ayers deal... The Chicago Tribune, a conservative newspaper... More bullshit from the McCain camp. They can't argue about the economy they and the Republicans BROKE so... may as well go 100% sleaze, all the time. Even Christopher Hitchens, a ultra-conservative, Clinton hater of the highest order, today endorsed.... WAIT FOR IT..... Obama! LOL! You Republicans have a lot to apologize to the nation for. Your day came and went and we now know what giving you contr…

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

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.

Looking for some good open ended strategy/adventure type games for the Xbox360. The type of games where you have free reign to do as you please for the most part and can pick your own path/goals instead of being forced to follow one preset path. One game I'm looking at is Fallout 3 which I've heard good things about. I picked up a copy of Sid Meir's Civilization Revolution and I've been hooked on that I like games that have depth and many choices and the choices you make have an effect but also provide multiple paths to victory. I'm by no means an avid hardcore gamer, I'm not to big on the first person shooters and overly complex games drive me nuts. After 12 …
