Both way too young to pass. I liked much of both their work, but I really enjoyed Bernie Mac's comedic style.

JoeUser Forums[quote] For anyone who has grown past kindergarten, you will see that this statement is childish and contributes nothing to the argument. Anyone can point a finger![/quote] Sure, it hurts when when people of a liberal bias gets called for being part of the problem (you can tell they use phrases like "For anyone who has grown past kindergarten" to inflate their elitist egos). But isn't that the purpose of your article - to point your finger at your perceived issues with t

The movie felt rushed to me, like they were going through the motions. It used nearly the same story line as the first two movies. The "new" Evie didn't help either, I think it would have been better to have killed her off, perhaps as some adventuring trip gone awry and that fueling the Frasier character for being against his son picking up after his parents. Not enough interaction with the young Asian girl and the son, she fell for him too quickly and in the process killed any potential for fun

You forgot one: 6) The rise in bleating hearts that support illegal immigration and housing bailouts, protest the troops, and generally despise and wish to usher in the demise of the country that has supported their freedoms and way of life in exchange for socialism or worse.

I think the effect on the human body would cause it to crush (like an aluminum can in deep water) so I think identification though DNA would be possible. Of course nearer the explosion he bodies would be charred pretty bad (no denying the heat factor, as it is basically a Fuel Air Explosive (FAE) with a guidance system). They are making the warheads small enough to be fired in a Hellfire missile and even shoulder launched, perfect fr this type of environment. The large ones would still be nee

[quote]I don't think anyone on the lending side should be surprised when that person stops paying! [/quote] Agreed! But I'd like to think there are some people that want to pull themselves up and do the right thing. Everyone deserves a chance, but the chronic abusers need to be punished. When it come to something as important as a home one mistake is probably too much. If a person has demonstrated that they are trying to rebuild good credit (over a period of time), I think the

There is a weapon the Soviets didn't have at the time that is now available to the US, it's called a Thermobaric weapon. It basically cause a vacuum inside enclosed spaces (ideal for caves). There are two problems here though: one) locating the caves and two) bombing Pakistan. Both touchy especially when the hideouts (caves) are in Pakistan and they don't like us infidels bombing their Muslim brothers.

One just has to turn on the TV, radio, or open the newspaper. It goes like this, "it takes too long to drill, so why start", "we won't see any oil for ten years" and "you must not support alternatives if you want to drill", it goe

...and the best thing of all is you'll know exactly were every penny will go. I think a lot of people would be shocked to learn when they donate (without doing some research) that much of their contribution can go into administration costs or projects and lobbyist's their wouldn't normally have supported. I'm sure a lot of places just throw money into them for the tax benefit without a full understanding of how the money will be used. If you have the means, why not put the cash where you can

Not to mention new wells don't always mean new oil rigs. The old ones are moved and reused. Amazing how information can be bent to help promote the entire "it's hopeless" agenda.

Why not give an incentive to people that pay their mortgage on time? For example knock off a quarterr percentage point every 10 yewars of on-time payments. It seems like this country continually rewards poor judgment/responsibility and fails to recognize the people that do the right thing. If we make being stupid hard, people that want to learn will change. I can understand some time things are out of a persons control, but that clearly is not the issue in the example Brad linked to.

Not all the money is gone after the games are over. For example Germany still uses the Olympic Stadium in Munich, so I'd say that was a good investment. I'm sure the construction workers and their families in Beijing are happy. I'm sure most of the cash rolled down to some point in the economy.

I think you can get the deficit down in 4 years (provided nothing major happens), like the Doc, I don't think you could lower the debit in that time frame without crushing tax increases, IMO unacceptable. I believe congressmen and senators should be limited to two terms in office period. Career politicians = increased chance of corruption. Oh and lower their retirement pay to 50% vice 100% while your at it. Politics should be a service to your country (like the military or peace corp)

But it will be interesting to see how many votes "the promise" (not guarantee) of $1000 will buy. When you sell your home (hoping to make a little money I assume) to retire or find a smaller place, Obama wants to tax your windfall profits too. Bust your hump for so many years, paying 4 times the cost of the home (interest) then the government takes 38% (the new rate) of the sale price? Sounds like robbery to me.

It has and probably always will be that nations left of center are overlooked for the most part by the international community when it comes down to genocide / persecutions. For example: In the 20th century the USSR and China (left wing Communist states) have killed more people (possibly 5 or 6 times more) than Nazi Germany (a right wing fascist state), but who is the villain? Adolph Hitler. And he should be, but not solely. He was a bronze medalist (to use an Olympic analogy) compared t
