OK. A right-wing news source calls bullshit. I can live with that.

Gee whiz dude, take a Xanax or something. I never said anything about something being "your fault" or "the source of all my problems". Hell, I wish you were....my life would be a whole lot simpler than it is. I have absolutely no personal animosity toward either you or BC. I asked BC a...

Let me 'splain something to you. As a very wise contributor once said on this forum (xfire), we cannot begin to bridge the gaps that divide us unless we talk to each other. You (and others here) seem to think that personal insults and bluster is the way to go. In a very diplomatic fashion...

....at the world economic summit in St. Petersburg (Russia, not Florida!). This is fascinating if you're a geopolitical junkie like I am. Anyway, to hear him tell it, America and Obama are imperial aggressors. Maybe we are. Guess it depends on your viewpoint, huh? Who knows what is really...

There you go! Simple. And so many here seem to think that France is such a fucked-up country! ;)

I have no data with which to refute your opinion so there it stands. I actually think a lot of liberals (if not simply democrats) enjoy listening to differing opinions just as I do although I am also certain that, on both sides of the aisle, there are those who simply shut out the ideas...

The historical reality is that the political philosophies of the parties has literally done a compete 180 since the Civil War. In the 1860s, the democrats were, for the most past, sympathetic to some degree with the Confederacy. Lincoln's reelection campaign in 1864 was seriously challenged by...

This is ridiculous. I don't get the opposition to this. I have to show an ID for damn-near everything from as buying a beer to getting on an airplane but yet somehow it is inequitable to insist on the same requirement in order to vote? As a taxpayer and voter, I would be in favor of anything...

You can't find a candidate that is more liberal than Jill Stein and the Greens. Fox, you are an unabashed and self-confessed liberal-hater (not judging, just sayin' you have made those type of general statements). How, then, can you possibly support Jill Stein? Just the ultimate protest vote...

I've stayed away from this mosh-pit of a thread for the most part but I feel compelled to ask to have a source cited for that....or is that simply your opinion? I know I certainly watched them both but I'd be interested in viewership data like that if you have it.

This type of bullshit is a huge reason I remain a voter without a party affiliation and a continual skeptic of the rotten and pretentious American political system under which we currently are forced to live. I'm not pledging my loyalty (not even Ted Cruz style) to anything as inherently...

Let's post it then. Certainly a defining moment to say the least.

He also had a distinguished college career at Northwestern & Stanford. Always liked his style. 67 is way too young. R.I.P. Denny. You were who we thought you were. http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/17124739/dennis-green-former-minnesota-vikings-arizona-cardinals-coach-dies-age-67

I haven't commented about the RNC convention since I wanted to watch it in it's entirety before drawing any conclusions. Besides the obvious gaffes that have already been mentioned here, I thought Trump looked like a fish out of water reading his formal acceptance speech from the teleprompter...

Sorry but just the visual created by the thought of Roger Ailes doing the horizontal bop with ANYONE is more than I can handle. That aside, you have to hand it to him for his ability to turn Fox News into the ratings juggernaut that it currently is. It will be interesting to see what...

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to animus fox again. LOL....I have always told my wife that if our Jack Russell (God rest his soul....best dog ever and he lived to be 17 years old!) was the size of a Rottweiler he could rule the world. Smart, fearless and incredibly...

Don't worry about growing up. It's growing old that blows.

Good deeds rarely, if ever, make the headlines. If all of us made a point to commit but a single random act of kindness every day, what a much better place this would be. Rep headed your way, stone....

Well, from a political standpoint I'll defer to your superior knowledge as it applies to the politics of the SEC and the NCAA and to Saban's relationship to Emmert. All I am saying is that, without all the titles that "Coach Saban" has won over his tenure as HC at 'Bama, he would not have...

The Robinson helicopter was my immediate thought as well but, being an aviation nut, I thought it to be just too obscure....especially considering the rest of the guy's really bizarre post. I don't think he was talking about helicopters.

No....you assume wrong. It's actually a misquote on my behalf to a direct reference of the words Thomas Jefferson used in the Declaration of Independence and the quotation marks were there to indicate same. He did indeed use "unalienable"....my bad. The substance of what I had to say is of...

An informative, confirmative and non-confrontational response. Thank you. :hatsoff:

"intentionally obtuse"?? I don't know where you get off with that concept. C'mon man, I'm not a legal expert....you're the friggin' lawyer so I'm asking a question. If that makes me obtuse in some way....well :dunno: If we were to do away with the first amendment, would you not agree that...

How does the SCOTUS overturn an amendment? They couldn't do that even if they unanimously wanted to, could they? It would take a constitutional amendment to rescind the second amendment from my understanding (the history of prohibition and its subsequent cancellation would be the...

The only "inalienable rights" that were ever specifically referred to by Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence are the rights to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness". Pretty vague, wouldn't you say? By transference, one could consider the Bill of Rights to be an extension...

Did anyone catch this interview with Jeb Bush a couple of nights ago on the Rachel Maddow show? An extremely honest, candid and revealing exchange without question. Jeb basically admits that he and the other candidates were steamrolled by Trump's theatrical tactics and his superior ability to...

Well, like they say, you can't do anything about the weather so....:dunno: ;) Levity aside, there is a serious double-standard in this country where athletes get preferential treatment from the law on a routine basis. This judge (ironically, named Jerry Jones) so much as admitted it here...

Maybe for you but not for me. Vive' le difference!

And more people die from cancer in states that have the most bathtubs. The fewer the bathtubs, the fewer the incidences of cancer. Can it therefore be deduced that bathtubs cause cancer? Of course not....it all has to do with population density. The more people, the more bathtubs and...

Being healthy and feeling good Sharing your love with someone who loves you back equally Finding contentment and happiness with your life I could cite much more specific occurrences and experiences but they ultimately lead back to one of these three main areas....at least for me they do.

Cuban himself said it would take at least a decade. There's plenty of money for those fat cats to stuff away in that time frame. In the interim, I am one fan that's saying goodbye. I don't have a rooting interest anymore, I don't play fantasy football (unless you do it for real money, talk...

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to animus fox again. The impact of this observation cannot be overestimated. The general deterioration of the nuclear family is a huge contributing factor to the breakdown of not only black society, but American society in general. Kids...

Just for the record, I harbor no ill will against the LA Rams fans at all and I totally get your excitement at getting what would seem to be your team back (let me warn you though, these ain't your daddy's Rams). It's the owner and management that is totally fucked (in addition to the...

Thanks for the comments, fox. Such depressing times in which we live right now.

To paraphrase Tony Montana...."Fuck Stan Kroenke and fuck the fucking Rams".

No, not definitively. Reuters or AP stories are usually reliable however. I've struggled through as much of it as I could take. If you read every word, I give you a lot of credit. I have read a couple of books that discuss the tenets of the Quran so I am familiar with the references you...

That simply isn't true. He has made statements that these terrorists are not true followers of the tenets of Islam. Big difference. In fact, he typically avoids the subject of their religious affiliation en total. One can argue whether this is the correct stance or not but it certainly...

Despite the FBI investigation's conclusions, the state department is reopening the investigation into her emails. If this keeps dragging on (and apparently, it will), I think she should withdraw from accepting the democratic nomination and allow an open convention to pick who goes up against...

Unquestionably. Tex-Mex is definitely NOT authentic Mexican cuisine.

Time will tell. I voted for Sanders in the primary and I intend to vote for Gary Johnson in the general election. Most disaffected Sanders enthusiasts with whom I speak find nothing attractive about either major party candidate for the most part. I'm sure some will vote for Trump (he claimed...

More likely that 6 of 10 won't vote at all.

It's easy to define terrorism in such diverse ways when the situation under which you experience it and the manner to which it affects your everyday existence is taken into account.

This. She certainly risked exposing classified information to enemies of the USA and that, to me, is unforgivable. :goodpost: Trump, in typical fashion, is blowing this significant PR opportunity by lamenting this consequence as a "rigged" outcome when he would be much better served to simply...

Happy Birthday, America!

No, I did not say I will not be voting for Hillary but I will most definitely NOT be voting for Trump. If I thought my vote would make a difference in the outcome of whichever nominee is going carry Texas, I might feel compelled to hold my nose and vote for Clinton in spite of her obvious...

Buddy Guy's place on Wabash just south of downtown always features some great R & B artists. A splendid time is guaranteed for all. Check the schedule here: http://buddyguy.com/

Christ Stewart has all the talent in the world but when he elects to take a night off, he fucking disappears (which happens way too often). That's been the problem his whole career. That's why he can't stick with anyone!

It happens with those who are constantly railing about Trump as well. I don't know many true conservatives that are exactly pleased over the presumptive republican nominee any more than a lot of true liberals are over Hillary. Bad and worse depending on your viewpoint.

Actually, when I say "American", southern-style food is what I am referring to. I was raised on it and will love it until my dying day. Gimme some ham and beans, fried okra, chicken and dumplings, cornbread, grits, fried catfish, biscuits with cream or sawmill gravy, chicken fried steak...

He's way more than just a mucker but I get the general reference. He's a classic power forward who creates havoc in front of the other team's cage but he is also a surprisingly good skater and has a wicked shot from the dots in. Plus, he's a quality character guy, tremendous leader, total team...
