NO respect for the presidential office.
Disgraceful.
Drunk ass, hot dog eating baseball 'fans'.
-
bush is a mass-murdering freak. he orders his war machine to incinerate child while they sleep. he's a sickness. he's a coward.
-
The people should show more respect. No decisions of such magnitude you refer to are made solely by one man or woman.

Do you really think that Bush is the person to blame for that? Or possibly the majority of the defense department and his cabinet?

Good question.
All is done for the greater good.

The syndrome of "Blaming" should be erased as a practice for all time. It results in no solutions whatsoever, as you know.

The people are becoming sick of it all. Glad they let him and his party know how they felt. If another republican gets in and drags this war out for much longer there will be a lot of pissed off MF's Enough of the BS
-
This is what makes the idea of america great. no retribution for hating on those in power.
-
Sick of what?
Generally and fundamentally, nothing really ever changes-regardless of administration. Things are great...the media tells us they are not, and those who are of the inability to think independently follow the media's lead like lemmings.
Folks should learn to govern themselves, depend less on the machine.
-
We deserve Bush thanks to the average American.

Sick of a war that is a waste of lives and money, nothing has changed over there. Sick of a messed up ecomomy and high unemployment where people cant make a living wage. Sick of out of control spending and a huge national debt. Sick of helping eveyone else except the people of this country.
Govern themselves?
Not everyone has your out look that things are great here. Keep pretending all is well. It maybe you are fine now, does not mean all is well everywhere. Has nothing to do with the media, real people are telling these stories. Stay in your littlle world.

Oh, so just like your students must automatically give you respect just because you are their professor, US citizens must, sheep-like, have respect for the presidential office? You promoting this type of thinking is the only thing that is disgraceful.

haha i love it. lets pray we dont get mccain or bush brother.

If being a dumbass means my name is not 'Sirtraps'...then yes, I am the biggest dumbass there is.
Peace :)

moosejay ive changed my opinion on you
Try not being patriotic to a FAULT....and OPEN YOUR EYES

haha i love it. lets pray we dont get mccain or bush brother.
And if we do, guess what? Absolutely very little will change in your or my lives because of it. Build your own reality, Sarge!

Your opinion is your opinion, and I respect that.
I don't know you, so how could your opinion matter to me? Impossible.
I am a jingoist...if you know what that is, you will understand my stance and probably be comfortable with it as my decision.
BTW, don't let a few words out of so many millions sway your opinions and thoughts so easily.... :)peace to all
-

I agree, nothing will change
-
Yes its time for a change :)
Its always time for a change.
Just like in the stock market...ever notice how the pundits like to say..."in these uncertain times"?
Well,...when are they CERTAIN?
They are not.
All things are always in flux.
The man who won the lotto today will tell you Bush is great.
The man who lost his job today will tell you Bush sucks.
Check your own personal lot for answers.

Obama is a long legged Mac Daddy!

Haha...that's funny.
Hey, in all seriousness, what the hell is a MacDaddy???

Try some anger management, genius.
I'm just saying that respect is earned, not given. I'm not sure of your age, but historically respect is something which people of authority seem to think is automatically guaranteed to them merely by being authority figures. This is the same type of thinking which has resulted in many women sticking with abusive husbands for years because they were trained to believe that honouring their husband comes before their own self worth. It is a disgusting and dangerous way to think.
If you were my professor, I would give you respect and address you by your title if I felt you deserved that. If you truly are a man worthy of respect, you can guarantee I would give you it.
By the way, what your students really think of you will come out anonymously anyway. For example, on www.ratemyprofessors.com . What is the point of being given fake respect by your students if they don't genuinely respect you?
And if we do, guess what? Absolutely very little will change in your or my lives because of it. Build your own reality, Sarge!
Actually lots will change. Bush and his elite friends only have so much power because we give it to them. If we all revolted against the elite, they would stand no chance. And this will eventually happen.
-
I am likely a member of what you call the elite.
I chose my lot in this life.
It was not and is not easy.
I don't care to be levied a higher tax to share with those who choose not to excel.
I am 44.
I competed in bb for 25 years.
I get along with all types of people.
I own a chiropractic business and a marketing company.
I have taught college on and off for years.
The students are expected to give respect off the bat, earned or not.
They are not my peers or my equal in the educational forum, that is why they come to learn in my class...to get some of what I know.
Matt, I am a jingoist...so now you will better understand my position.
Best,
Mike

He threw the baseball better than any other prez.. EVER.
Ya know why?
Cause he's the fucking man!!!! .. that's why!!!
Now why don't you guys stop crying, take off your dresses, and end this little tea party.
;D
-
I'm not the biggest Bush fan, but I hate all you Muslim freaks. Your religion is bogus. Not that I'm a religious guy myself, but your bullshit beliefs take the cake.
-
.
AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAA OMG best subtle comeback i've seen in ages
but seriously bush doesn't deserve respect, not anymore, although i would still be polite to him in person to set the record straight, i'm not a rude bastard for no reason, i have no personal vendettas.

Don't be so harsh on your fellow man, we are being brainwashed and most of us don't have the capactiy to understand it yet...We(the human race) are all part of a system that is run by some very Evil Bloodlines...One day we will move to the next dimension(and dance) and these bloodlines will be exposed and left behind...

Right change like the racist Osama and his pastor.

What is cool here is that President Bush would smile at this comment and shake your hand, after all freedom enables you to say this. If you made this statement in Sadams country, you would have been put to death.
Ain't America great.
The Beef

americans are too stupid to unite to put together any movement for a good change for truth
and too lazy
or dont care

The above description of 'greatness' you provided just described the entire civilized world. Very interesting how the less cultured of my fellow countrymen seem to think that we're so unique in this way.
Actually, the most standout thing making us unique for a western country is the fact that we have more people here who believe in creationism fairy tales than acknowledge the truth that is evolution.
The idea of America is great, my friend; but, unfortunately its current government is not.
-
Bush likes bombing brown people and making money from the war...can you really fault him? ;D Those are some pretty cool hobbies.
The day I'd join the military to fight for our "truthful" country, is a day that would never come..haha When I was 18 and uninformed, I thought of joining the Marines...today, knowing how full of shit our country is with their motives...never. They're missing out too. I'm pretty sick at COD4..>BOOM!

What would be a good change?
someone like daddywaddy laying down the brutal truth
getting it ALL out on the table
calling a neggar a black everyone is fair game to insults so cut out this tip toeng crap about being of a different race
letting the public know that all there drugs they prescribe patients are heavely pushed by the pharmaceutical companies and do more harm then good and create a dependancy, antibiotics make for worse health
raising the question how come the superior feul source was bought out in the 70's by the rockefellars, and that weve been lied to and screwed over
changing the youth education system because its a waste of some very productive first 18 years of peoples lives, get them to learn the basics at a young age, get a kid out in the feild make him learn that food doesnt grow in a grocery store thats all they need then they can go into specialized teaching from there, dont kill kids minds on getting them to hate learning and with too much homework
kill this overly policed system, there should be more developed land without things to sell but more nature paths and eco friendly stuff where people can get pvssy without having to buy something at a bar at night, let them be free to roam outside and be whatever and make people feel comfortable to be outside in large gatherings enjoying nature with places to walk things to do for free , tennis, baseball, basketball not enough organized free sports. a car should simply not start and have a breathalizer installed so if they are not drunk they can drive
i could come up with millions of ideas im just rambling but the education really needs to change

Hi Craig Titus.

You can see when Bush was walking to the pitch the ball, his expression changed.. I bet in his mind he must be thinking "Sons of bitches.. Can't wait to nuke these fools together with the stadium.."
-
His approval rating is actually UP right now. He's up to 24% from 19%.

Your name speaks volumes about you....
-
The sad thing is that half that stadium was probably filled with street clothed military and secret service personel acting as baseball fans. They were probably the only ones cheering. Bush hurried the hell up too. He ran out, threw the pitch and ran off. What a pussy.

Moosejay I completely agree with everything you have said. I think we share almost the same exact ploitical views. It's nice to see some are still free thinkers and not swayed by the media or public opinion.

Sick of a war that is a waste of lives and money, nothing has changed over there. Sick of a messed up ecomomy and high unemployment where people cant make a living wage. Sick of out of control spending and a huge national debt. Sick of helping eveyone else except the people of this country.

Ummmmm sorry I guess I missed the last time everything was perfect in the world ::)
Personally I have not been able to find a steady job for months and in my case everything is in turmoil right now but through and through I stand by my country and support it. You have to remember things could always be worse and people in the USA don't realize how good they have it. I think you are the epitome of the word PESSIMIST.

Hey, that's great, Mike!
I still respect the opinions of others. I just think folks should try to think on their own...that's how this great country was built.
Responsibility.
Self reliance.
Be accountable for YOUR OWN successes or failures.
I am just kind of surprised, this being a bb board...and that bb takes the utmost in the above-mentioned traits to be successful in it.
Just apply what you practice in bb, and you wont really care who is in office.
You will be your own self-government! :)

Please elaborate ::)
Are you serious?
Turn on the news, dipshit.

I agree with this post.
I respectfully disagree, sans your insults, friend. Peace :)
BTW, I have made my world a successful and happy one. I have had rough times, too. But the spirit that has built this great country is within me. You can have this, too.
If your life were not in dire straights (Don't know if it is), would you hold your views that things are so rough here? Can you be honest about this?

Many extremely great things have happened, too. Be fair, now.

I don't try to sway others to my views but I try to explain to them that there is way more to the world then what you see on the news, read in the paper or hear people talking about in the workplace. I often question why they have such negative feelings towards certain people or groups and come to find they have no solid basis behind their views.
-
You just proved my point ;D
Indeed.
You know, America is still the greatest in the world.
Everyone knows this in their heads. They are very happy to be here. If not...then please offer SOLUTIONS to your quandarys.
Yes, America is still the greatest in the world...but we seem to be running into the A-Listers who make it that way with less and less frequency.
So, many of the innovators and trail blazers carry more and more of the load in helping America lead the world.
Peace, Moosie

Did you know food sales are down 2%, and the cost of food is up all over the world?

Mike: I always have a ear for a fair argument or complaint. However, I always ask for a viable SOLUTION to the complaint, and not just to hear, "Bush sucks".
Believe me, for those who comport themselves that way, well...they ain't baing asked to give too many lectures at the local University :)
BTW...congratulations to you for keeping your chin up...despite being out of work for a spell.
You are a great American.

More often then not that's the end of the conversation ;D
Oh and by the way, I have figured that if things aren't on the upside for me within the next few months I am seriously considering joing the USMC because it's always been a dream of mine and I figure I would rather be part of the solution then sit back and complain about my situation.

You know, Mike, If I hadn't done the 9 year college thing, my alternative was always the armed services. I think it is a noble and gratifying course for the right person to take. I wish you best in your lot. The ultimate sign of one who enjoys control in their life is to take action and not complain.
Its easy to join in the swirling pool of discontent which has so many in it. It seems to make it 'okay' to be mediocre or less...just play the blame game....

I appreciate your words.
There is no doubt some truth in them.
But, while blaming an administration, I always also like to look at the paths that the sufferers have taken for themselves. The choices they have made, and sometimes continue to make, that continue to thicken their perilous lot.
Its always a matter of control, or lack of it. Well, almost always!

Yeah when I was in my teens I got into some trouble and ended up in a Juvenile Bootcamp run almost exclusively by ex-marines and at first I thought it was hell and by the end I didn't want to go home (seriously I cried and asked them to let me stay ;D). People who think those in the armed services are all sheep are very very wrong.

I have been fat before, when I got sick.
I remember I felt losuy about almost everything, and I cast my gaze asunder at almost anything I had previously looked upon as being good. Thankfully, I regained my health and returned to my former, 'pretty good muscularity and lean physique'.
When you take care of yourself, and enjoy great health, everything looks better :)

The American people are starting to suffer because we are paying for a war.
Look at gas prices, the rising cost of food and utilities. The unemployment.
This is the current administrations doing. NOT the American people.

Well, hmmm, sure. Some of that may be true.
But the American people elected the administration, thus, it is a reflection of them.
Ultimately, the people will have to learn that THEY hold the true power here.
The only time I blame is when I blame myself, which is ALL THE TIME for my successes and failures.

I really cant wait until that asshole is out of office, the guy reaaally fucked the economy not to mention sending all the jobs to India.. Hopefully, a new pres can start using our own natural resources to bring the fucking price of gas down..
Well, yeah... the oil industry did post a 35 BILLION profit for the past year...so I can't figure that shit out...DAMN!
-
Okay, given that, who would NOT be an embarassment to the US?
For some, unfortunately, I think ANYONE in office will be an embarassment for them.
Could it be that folks are practicing something called reflection?
HAHAHAHAHA Please tell me you have seen this episode of South Park.

Go to the General board...go to pics of members and more...the is a whole thread of me under Moosejay.
I understand you carry a lot of muscle. Cool, I never was very strong, tried the Zane approach, with limited success!

It's your mind/spirit that isn't very strong, and it affected your body. True story.

Umm, why would you say that? My family? How would that help Canada? Does Canada need this kind of help? I don't understand.
Stavios, you have always been civil to me. I am surprised....
I think I am being really civil, that does not mean that I have to agree with you on that subject.
Innocent people are being kill for a reason and one reason only: USA wants their oil.
those people are just as innocent as your familly, so why is it OK to kill those innocent people but it is not OK to kill your innocent familly ?
because you don't know them ?

Moose,
I'm a lifelong repub who became lost from my party after it came out that Bush was warned about 911, six weeks before, and did nothing because it fit the plans of the wars his admin was planning.
One thing you may forget...
If things keep going in this direction - borrowing 1 tril per year, dollar being dropped by our allies, and falling dollar, guess what may happen?
Russia and mexico both went bankrupt in the 90s. You think it can't happen to big nations?
Your awesome professor job might not be there one day when federal funds stop coming. Your awesome retirement package might not be there one day if the dollar suddenly becomes worthless. Your local Walmart might not open their doors one day.
THAT is what should keep you from becoming a "yes-man". Bush bought 100k acres in paraguay to move to in 2009 - he's building a mansion there, right? Haliburton is moving to Dubai at the end of 08, and Cheney will be taking over things there, right?
Step back. Realize that historically, great nations have gone broke. The awesome job and savings account you have won't matter. You are every other skell on the street might all wake up with no job and no savings one day.
-
Well, yeah... the oil industry did post a 35 BILLION profit for the past year...so I can't figure that shit out...DAMN!
Its because the A-Rabs know they have us by the balls, because they know Bush is an absolute Moron when it comes to foreign policy.

Calmus:
Do you have that book, Zane's Mind/ Spirit book?
Actually, I didn't get much out of that.
I have gone to his Zane experience in La Mesa, it was very good.
He even played us a few tunes on the harmonica and guitar!

No, no! Stavios..I of course respect your opinion...I was referring to your colorful language towards me, is all.
And, remember, some of what you say may be true.
You do, however, seem smart enough to realize that the media is biased, so I due plod methodically in ferreting out what is true and what is illusion.

MooseJay, I am not angry with the US.
I am just angry with useless war. People seems to think it is OK to kill billions of innocent people because they don't know them, that's the simple truth.
because there are far far away from us, we don't care about it. but if people were being killed in your backyard, things would be different
-
That could be a good thing ;)
I understand, govts have to make tough decisions. I understand the world is a messed up place, and neither party is perfect, but they both do what they think is best for the USA (while making their friends rich at the same time)
That's just how it is.
My point is just that many people don't see the bigger problsm for ALL of us, repub or dem, rich or poor. The british newspapers are calling it "The Great Depression 2008" this morning in case you haven't noticed. We've had 2 quarters with negative GDP growth. We're officially in a recession.
Recessions happen. That's part of the cycle. But if the world loses confidence in the dollar, well, that is a scary prospect. That affects all of us.
-
That could be a good thing ;)
Hey 240.
Cool, your words resound, I appresiate them.
My 'awesome' professor job ain't so awesome.
the kids are so bad I bring a cell phone jammer into class so they can't disrupt me(yes...a cell phone jammer...friend goit for me in Europe...it's GREAT!)
It's only part time...down the street from my practice.
I do my own pension. I know it is always subject to rick.
But if I always think in terms of gloom and doom (whether badness is coming or not) why would I even bother to get out of bed anymore?
The badness you describe just makes me work harder to counteract in positive fashion.
Rose colored glasses? Maybe..
But it makes for a great and productive life.
Squad...how'd I look in my pics....I know, I know...not too big.... :)

Thats a little inflated don't you think :-\
We are very fortunate to not have that kind of stuff around here but don't you think others deserve the same. If we weren't there, there would still be just as much violence if not more and more extreme.

Agreed, Stavios. 100%
But, not Billions, as you say. Not even millions. Thousands, perhaps. That doesn't make it any better. Wish we had the FULL story...never, ever will.

That Idi Amin was one sick fuck. Killed, I believe, 300,000 of his countrymen.

I understand we have problems and I will be the last to deny them but it ticks me off when guys put the blame solely on the President let alone the Government. If they are American companies and American consumers then we have only ourselves to blame.
-
Yes.

both Iraq and the rest of the world was better off with Saddam in power, the Bush family created some scary boogeyman myth out of big bad Saddam when there was nothing to fear, he sold us oil at reasonable prices and kept his people at bay.

I'm not a pessimist. I actually believe the party system is cyclical. Dems fix the DOMESTIC situation (Clinton creating the surplus) and Repubs hook us up with FOREIGn advantages. Poor prosper under dems, rich prosper under repubs.
Regardless of your own "I am set financially position", realize that if things do go in that direction, you will have 260 millino Americans who are NOT set financially who might come knocking on your door for a handout. Or, might stick a gun in your face for your car keys. Realize that a $ collapse here would mean hundreds of millions of hungry desperate people destorying how nice you have things. Your pension might still be there partially, but your ability spend the $ might not.
Yes, that's the 'doomsdayers' viewpoint, and it'll likely never happen. But, many leaders (repubs!) are now admitting we're in the worst shape since WWII. And after the housing/credit crash, more sectors will fall due to the ripple effect. I'm not a 'the sky is falling' guy... I'm just pointing out that many in the world believe the dollar is in trouble, and if it does fall, you'll be up shit creek with everyone else, no matter how much $ you have.

I agree that people did this to themslves, SOMEWHAT.
Buying a house you can't afford with an adjustable rate = asinine.
But spending $12 BILLION a month in Iraq... when the majority of the population is against it... and Bush saying he'll keep spending it, even if 99% of the population is against it.
That's not doing the will of the people. That's doing what he wants to preserve his legacy in history. And borrowing $1 Tril per year from China to do it - using US highways and parks as collateral.
I don't like that idea, and I'm betting 51% of our population doesn't like that idea. Does that mean it'll stop, as the majority doesn't want it? Um, no. It'll continue, even if 99% of us don't like it.

If people only knew of all the sacrifices that have been made throughout history in an attempt to live with the kind of freedoms we have today.
Yeah...no shit.
Mike, have you seen the recent series, 'John Adams' on HBO?
Man those folks had it rough as Hell. It's like we live in Utopia in comparison.

Truckers Line Up To Protest Fuel Costs
http://www.wesh.com/news/15756801/detail.html
Authorities in Tampa are working to keep traffic moving as dozens of truckers lined up to protest the rising cost of fuel.
Police said they're working to keep traffic moving near the Port of Tampa, where the big rigs are gathered. It's happening along 22nd Street near the causeway at McKay Bay.
Diesel prices are nearing $4 a gallon, which is putting the squeeze on truck drivers. They said they're fed up on Monday and planned to fight back.
Independent trucker Rui Olivera said he's worried the high price of diesel may run him out of business.
"If it goes up another 50 cents a gallon, I have to park. I'll have no choice. I don't work for free. I'll go find a janitorial job for a little bit,” Olivera said.
After 11 years behind the wheel, it's the first time he's considered stopping.
"If there's a strike, I'll have to honor it obviously. If we don't stick together, its getting harder and harder," Olivera said.
Diesel prices are hovering around $4 a gallon, forcing truckers to spend $600 to $700 or more to fill up one tank.
"It's hurting a lot of companies. People are struggling, you hear them talking on the radios, not just trucking, everyone's feeling the pinch," trucker Wayne Calvert said.
Many drivers said they believe the strike will happen.
"It has to. The guys, the owner operators, I know they can't afford to keep running like this. It's killing them," Calvert said.
Others, like 35-year veteran Gary Burch, disagree.
"Since the one in the early '70s until now, every time they threaten to shut down, it never works," Burch said.
The strike was slated to begin at midnight Monday and run through April 5. Truckers promised it would make an impact.
As part of the planned protest, truckers said they plan to either park their rigs, go 45 mph on highways or post protest signs on their trucks.
There are no reports of traffic troublespots around Orlando on Tuesday morning.

If our Armed services need that much money then I say give it to them, they know more about what's going on then we do. Why should people who know nothing of the situation other then what the news shows have control over what the armed services should get. If the people we elected to office approve then I say go for it, unless you feel we can't trust anyone in the government that WE elected.

Wait a second - "If our armed forces need that money"?
They need that money for the massive cost of infrastructure to keep them there in Iraq.
We are stalling letting iraq's new police/military take over those duties, even though they want to, and they wish for us to leave.
Why?
Some say it's because Cheney is receiving what, $10 to $30 mil per year from haliburton in Stock options?
I don't know... if a company was paying me $30 mil a year, and it would stop if I ended the war... I would sure keep that beyotch going, woudln't you?
-
Yeah...no shit.
Mike, have you seen the recent series, 'John Adams' on HBO?
Man those folks had it rough as Hell. It's like we live in Utopia in comparison.
No when is it on?
I am a big history buff and trust me I have a decent understanding of how good we have it, bad thing is most people have no idea. I think we should all be tested to keep our citezenship, I gurantee your average American today (especially the younger generations) couldn't pass the citizenship test.

WE elected 'em. Now we gotta lay in bed with 'em.

I wouldn't exactly say they are ready to do it on their own, i say we get it done right so we don't have to go back yet again.
-
unless you feel we can't trust anyone in the government that WE elected.
The democrats also wish to let the iraqis take over their own security.
That would mean our men and women come home.
That would mean the war bill drops instantly.
51% of the Senate wants it. Problem is, Bush stops them everytime with the veto power. He can keep the war going until the 2008 elections, because the dems don't have 60% of senate. If they did, we'd pull troops back tomorrow.
So despite the fact a majority of the country, and a majority of the senate wants to let the iraqis police their own country, it ain't happening.
-
Where did you hear that?
Go look up the national debt trends. gone up $5 tril in 7 years under Bush with the trend being much higher in 08 than in 01.
-
don't get me wrong. i'm a republican, i support the war, i support us being in the region and reaping the benefits.
I'd just like to see IRAQI forces doing the close up gun battles each day, not Americans. Pull out our men to the safety of bases, let the iraqis face the day-to-day dangers. After all, it is THEIR country to defend. They want to. The troops want to let them!

Thats a little inflated don't you think :-\

Cool. I'm all for kicking ass all around the world to remain a superpower. I would just rather have iraqis do the legwork. We can sip pina coladas on the bases, and calmly carpet bomb anyone who gets within 5 miles of us, right?

One of the problems with this strategy is what kind of Iraqi are we going to entrust to bringing order to Iraq. There are competing factions with a multitude of agenda's. At my worst moments i think its best to let them fight it to the death and let Crom sort them out.
On a side note, I think it is hard to argue at this point that Bush is a good president. Regardless of whether or not you think radical Islam is a major problem, which I believe it is( in my estimation radical religion is inherently dangerous regardless of what religion it is), his strategy for combating terrorism and radicalism was poorly devised and haphazardly executed.

he'll be remembered by the history books as the president who
- established a longterm presence in the mid east
- established US oil pipes across the mid east, in US dollars
- bravely fought islamist extremism.
Kids history books will ignore all the stuff about oetting 911 happen and the sunni/shiite mess, and just talk about it like we talk about FDR bravely responding to Pearl harbor.
Grownup history books will talk about it for centuries.

Bush shouldn't say another word between now and his departure from office aside from "No comment". I think he could get that right.

Regardless of whether or not you think radical Islam is a major problem, which I believe it is( in my estimation radical religion is inherently dangerous regardless of what religion it is), his strategy for combating terrorism and radicalism was poorly devised and haphazardly executed.
Ha. Crom...(Thor?)
-
he'll be remembered by the history books as the president who
- established a longterm presence in the mid east
- established US oil pipes across the mid east, in US dollars
- bravely fought islamist extremism.
Kids history books will ignore all the stuff about oetting 911 happen and the sunni/shiite mess, and just talk about it like we talk about FDR bravely responding to Pearl harbor.
Grownup history books will talk about it for centuries.
Your words ring true here, 240

History books aren't as hagiographic as they used to be.
I confess...hagiographic???

In all fairness:
If you work extremely hard
And work smart
Have a goal
And singleness of mind
There is absolutely NO WAY you cannot be successful in this country

What do you mean by successful ,Moosejay
-
And singleness of mind
wtf

Whateva:
That varies from person to person.
Being a successful bb, as I know you are, you understand this comes back to exact, individual goal setting.
Having a clear, definitive plan, from early on, and seeing it through, no matter what the circumstances.
If it is what the individual REALLY wants, then they will see their goals through the rough spots of life.
They will not buy more house than they can afford
They will not piss their money away on gambling, cigarettes, and vanilla Starbucks Lattes
They will attend to their civic responsibilities
The list goes on and on...
-
wtf
Singleness of mind= not being distracted from your goal, no matter what
-
it's most common for the home team's catcher to catch the "first pitch". This should have been Paul LoDuca, but, instead the team's manager caught the pitch thrown by President Bush....this is because LoDuca was named in the Mitchell Report involving steroids...god forbid!!! ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
-
That may not be so...especially since it is said that George may pardon his pal, Roger C, especially if he does go down

the manager NEVER catches the first pitch at a ballgame...maybe Bush did'nt make a stink of the situation, but his "people" sure as hell did ..to avoid the possible scrutiny that would have followed..the Pres. can't play catch with a steroid freak!! haha
-
Probably true

They weren't booing him they were all yelling "Buuuuuuuuuuuush"

That is true...according to some reports booing was mixed in with cheers.
I don't think the American people are that crass

nice post
many are giving up too early not setting more higher goals

Yes, Falcon, I am glad you see this.
It is easy, but not simple, as far as this basic equation goes.

We deserve Bush thanks to the average American.
Quite correct. We knew what kind of man he was after the first term and we reelected him anyway.
On the upside, only after having a moron in the white house running the country into the ground for the last 8 years is the nation is ready for ANYONE who can do a half way decent job as the Commander in chief, even if he is an African American.
We are only 292 days away from our first Black President. Thank You Mr Bush ;D

HAHAHAHAHAHA. Every republican in the US will crawl out from under their rock to vote to ensure that the US never has a Black President. The dems have shot themselves in the foot by choosing either a women or a black man. The dems like to talk a tough game but on election day will be too lazy to vote.

bush is a mass-murdering freak. he orders his war machine to incinerate child while they sleep. he's a sickness. he's a coward.
Get a life, weakling.

Major polls for the last year disagree with this - Obama, hilary, and Mccain are all in a statistical tie at the moment.
