While I don't know about the rest of them, it's a bit silly to think that Gary Trudeau will be unemployed at any point in the near future. Doonesbury is sindicated in hundreds of newspapers, and the odds that they'll all pull it based on an article in Newsmax is kind of silly. Having said that, racist comments are inappropriate no matter who makes them. Cheers

Reply to Bring back fiscal sanity - PLEASE!!! in Politics JoeUser Forums

Yes, but you know how they can get money for college? Are you following my thinking? Prostitution? It's sad but true, but at least two of my students in past decade have told me they were prostitutes in order to pay for college. Cheers

Y'know, my favorite author, and in my opinion, the most influential one of all time, said that "Nobody ever felt sad when they were hugging a towel." Cheers

Oh come on, I sat next to Bill Clinton at a conference we both happened to be attending. Admittedly, at the time, he wasn't the president, but I'm certainly no one important and I managed to score a seat next to the governor of Arkansas. Cheers

Hey Brad, My son's going to be getting the game. He uses the same tag, since he's the one who created the account in the first place. I'm sure he needs a guild. Oh, and Brad, how come my user rank shows N/A? I looked at some of the posts on the subject but couldn't find anything.

Question for Brad about Points in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Hey Brad, as you know, I've been around for awhile but my user rank says N/A. Not that it really bothers me, but I was just curious why everyone else gets a ranking and I don't. Cheers

It's not so much an accident really, as a set of circumstances that would create life as we know it. After all how many worlds have you personally seen where the proper circumstances did not occur? Cheers

You are not typing shorthand, you are typing with poor grammer and sentence structure, for instance, where does one thought end in this sentence: so lemme get this straight, it was rite to attack iraq because we needed to get their wmd's. but there weren't any... o wait, thats rite, thats what bush said b4 we attacked. after he said it was to get rid of there

I'm going to say we disagree on this one and leave it at that, it's taking too much energy to keep up the arguement. Cheers

No, unfortunately I sat there politely and gave him the answers he wanted to hear. Then I hustled him out the door as quickly as possible. Cheers

The thing was, this guy didn't really understand mathematics. He was taking the current population, taking the figures for how quickly the muslim population was growing, and then, without similarly increasing the population figures, figuring into the future how long until the muslims would have as many people as the population of the united states, and further figuring that their level of expansion would remain stable until the very end. Cheers

I didn't mean that to say I didn't get it, I meant to say that your bad grammer, sentence structure and spelling prevented me from understanding what you said. Cheers

Reply to Michael Moore to film sequel to Fahrenheit 9/11 in Politics JoeUser Forums

It would take too long to go back through every post and put down everything you said which proves that point, but allow me to summarize. Many times you used the words Democrats, Democratic Establishment, and Democratic leadership synonymously, they are not. Cheers

I'm sorry, are you saying that Drmiller has the better posts because he doesn't rely on facts and is inarticulate? If I were drmiller, I might be insulted, but then again, I think I've insulted him in the past for incorrect use of the possesive form.

Reply to Michael Moore to film sequel to Fahrenheit 9/11 in Politics JoeUser Forums

No way do I teach political science, I teach an honorable and respectable field like History. Besides, as a party which is proud to be rather unorganized, I think it's clear that we very rarely endorse something with a unified vote. Anyway, even if, and this was my underlying point, even if Daschle and others supported it, they were clearly rejected by the people. Since your comment was designed to show that because the party leadership supported something, therefore the res

Y'know this missionary once came to my door and told me that at the rate at which the Islamic population of the United States was expanding, this was mostly through birthrate, I looked up later, that by x year there would be no more Christians left in the United States. I don't know about him, but I'm probably not going to convert to Islam any time soon, I also don't plan on leaving the country, I further plan to be alive in, something like three or four years at this point, when the Mu

No, did the leadership of the democratic party, by the way, Daschle is out of a job come January, the head of the DNC will probably be out of a job soon, sympathize with Moore in his Bush bashing? Well, yeah, after all, most of us Democrats don't like Bush. Did the establishment endorse his film? No, that's silly, do you think we all got together at, say, the National Convention and voted for a plank to endorse Michael Moore? No, we didn't, the majority of the party wa

Reply to A Question For Democrats in Politics JoeUser Forums

I'm "active" in that I show up to vote, I eat dinner with the local party chairman, because we're both members of the rotary club, I work down the street from my democratic congressman. I also complain regularly about how I'm being underpaid to my boss, who's a democrat. Oh, and of course, as a university professor, I do my best to subvert the little, impressionable minds that come into my class, to the Evils that are the Democratic Party. Cheers

We still use the name for one of the oldest terrorist groups. In fact, we use it as a common, not exactly everyday, but everyone knows it, word. Gold star to the first person who can tell me what the name of the group was. Cheers
