It has also done some good, it has helped thwart attacks on us here in the US.
The ends never justify the means..I am a firm believer in that.
Just think how many more criminals we could catch if we got rid of the fourth amendment, or habeus corpus.

I understand where you are coming from on this issue and can find more common ground with you than you might think. Unfortunately, life here has changed for us in this country since 9-11, not always for the better I might add.
Though things have changed, are rights cannot. I consider the Patriot Act a win for terrorism. They have scared us into taking away some rights for the sake of "security".

Patriot Act has not infringed on my rights like a gun ban would.
That you know of.....
-
Not true, for instance, there are many laws on the books for gun ownership, many are just fine and I agree with them. Other proposed laws are going too far, just as is the case with the Patriot Act.
This could be a whole other thread. I just don't like the idea of the government being able to see what books I check out, where I spend my money, or where I travel(without a warrant), as much as I don't like the idea of government heavily controlling guns.

He looked really good in the Game on ESPN. 4 TDs(2 passing 2 running)

To a degree, yes. I can agree that it can be too infringing on personal rights.
You either infringe, or you don't. There is no acceptable middle ground. Playing devils advocate here.

That's sad. How many other of our freedoms do you find it OK to have threatened?
Do you support the Patriot Act, RTS?

They'll lose in the SEC tourney, and if they make the tournament, they'll bow out in the first round.
I want in on this as well....

I think Jumper is trying to make the statement that we market to African Americans too much, and they are too poor to afford anything but McDonalds.
:rolleyes:
The Picture was classic.

Will UK make it in March?
:lol: Someone is ready for basketball season....I am right there with you buddy! Enough with this football crap!

I would much rather have a life draft. It's alot more fun imo.
Then we need to get everyone into the league and set a time ASAP. We have to get this done before the 1st of September, or we will have to wait a week to start playing.
-
8 Spots are left. Is there anyway we could have this draft at like 6 or 7 or 8 PM at night or even later?
As in tonight? I have the league set for auto draft(put you select order of your players) but if everyone was to want a live draft, I guess we could do one.

Exactly, Obama/Biden is anti gun as there has ever been (and that is a statement in itself considering some).
I don't understand any gun owner or anyone that loves our freedoms and rights in this country ever voting for this ticket.
This (Obama/Biden) is imo the (G.C.S.) "Government Contolled Society" ticket.
I don't understand how you can imply that the OJ ticket is for GCS, when McCain heavily supported the Patriot Act; the biggest infringement on our constitutional rights to this day.

Nothing personal, gooch, but I ain't buying that. I'm not calling you a liar, but I think somewhere in the back of your mind you were thinking "ahh, perfect".
No, that is exactly what you are doing. If I wanted to make a point or bring up a discussion I would of put this in the P&R forum. I found it Ironic so I posted it. I consider this picture in a lot better of taste, then when someone posts a picture of a women athlete, model, or Olympian; and then 3 pages of posts ensue laced with vague sexual innuendo.

Obama has the running away part down pat. :lol:
IMHO, Obama is going to blitzkrieg McCain hard in the coming weeks.
-
Is that the battle cry of an Obama led military? :lol:
Know when your beat and regroup.

Come on Aiden Seamus, thegooch has mad his stance on abortion crystal clear, I certainly don't think he picked this picture by mistake.
Actually I wasn't trying to make a political point. I just thought it was odd and funny that they would put these billboards on the same post.

Obama suffers from a leadership deficit. If Obama was afraid to debate McCain, then he should not have shot off his mouth and issued the challenge. McCain watched Hillary embarrass Obama in their last debate. Did Obama think McCain would refuse an invitation to let voters see the two of them debate - especially when McCain trailed in all of the polls?
Those who fight and run away, live to fight another day.
It is going to be a wild march to November 4th and I truly believe it will be too close to call up until early November 5th.

Any open conversation between Christians is a good conversation.
Sometimes I feel these Holy War threads on BGP, do more damage than good for your religion.

This describes it as well as I have read anywhere on here or anywhere else Ace. He dodged Hillary and now he is dodging Mccain.
You people talk about him dodging debates as if it is a bad thing. Lets look at this scenario...You have a army. This army has an excellent air force, but has horribly trained infantry units. The army you are facing, has a horrible air force, and an excellent infantry. Would you fight your army exclusively on the ground(without air support) just because your enemy challenged you to do so. NO!
The McCain people can say that Obama is scared to debate McCain all they want. Obama has to play to his strengths, just like McCain has to play to his. Obama and McCain will debate 3 times this fall, if Obama knows he is that bad at debating, then he realizes that keeping it down to three debates plays in his best interest. Obama can't be pushed into "Marty McFly Politics" in which you say or engage in something just because the opposite side calls you a chicken.
I also don't believe that the debate deficit between Obama and McCain is as big as some would have you believe.

I have set up a Yahoo Fantasy League. We are going to autodraft for the sake of time; but there is an option to rank your draft order.
PM me for all the particulars.....
