Wow. This is pretty good news. I will take this as a good sign.
#1732 Re: The Garden » Voters: McCain, Biden ready for presidency » 946 weeks ago
This is just the media playing up the experience thing on Obama & Palin.
Experience don't mean shit when it comes to a good Pres, or a Vice-Pres for that matter.
Just because some whores are more experienced, doesn't mean they are more equiped to fill your needs.
Had to throw that one in there.
McCain is definently more qualified than Obama, i don't think anyone could debate that.
This is a pretty good judge of how the election is turning.
I'll be interested to see how this progresses now that Obama has his head out of his ass and is actually starting to talk issues.

Possible. I know everyone is upset that the song isn't out there in any form except on the video game, but maybe there's a reason for that other than Axl isn't confident in the song or wants to "test the waters". It is possible.
You better hope and pray Axl doesn't want to test the waters with SR.
Have you missed anything that's been going on?
There has been no single release or GNR related RB2 promotion of any kind.
It's safe to say he's testing the waters. OMG II.
#1734 Re: The Sunset Strip » MTV to retire 'TRL' » 946 weeks ago
Should have never been started in the first place...
CC makes a damn good point. MTV is supposed to be about music, but on my Dish guide, i hardly ever see any shows about music on either MTV or MTV 2.
MTV and VH1 have become centered around shitty reality shows.
Fuse has become centered around bands that have zero creativity and absolutely no balls.

AFD is a great driving record.
#1736 Re: The Garden » AIG bailout » 946 weeks ago
Holy shit.
They just couldn't sit back and let it happen. This company fucked up, and letting them fail would have had less serious consequences than bailing them out.
One trillion dollars? Do they realize how much money that is?
#1737 Re: The Garden » White House says No More Bailouts » 946 weeks ago
No sooner than that "great call" AIG gets a bailout.
Amazing huh?
I really thought Bush was going to truly benefit this country, and then he turns against his word.
"No more bailouts... after AIG. It stops now!" 
#1738 Re: The Garden » McCain and Obama on Energy » 946 weeks ago
That's why i posted this thread James, it actually gives both sides of the story, and by some divine miracle, it's about issues.
Like i said before, that whole idea of windfall profits is increadibly stupid. I think it's a horrible idea, and i think McCain really has a strong plan on this issue, where Obama's will only backfire at him in more ways than one.
There are holes in each plan, but Obama's plan couldn't hold any water.
#1739 Re: The Garden » White House says No More Bailouts » 947 weeks ago
I don't believe that they can really just sit by and not bail out anyone. There will be more, i agree with you on that.
#1740 Re: The Garden » McCain and Obama on Energy » 947 weeks ago
I don't agree with Obama's idea of giving tax credits to people for gas. 500 per person and 1000 for a married couple, i just don't agree with it.
He's got some good ideas with moving to wind and solar, but not as much bio-fuels, since that tends to tie up some of our food production, which with rising costs of food, isn't such a good idea. Do people really want to see massive ethanol production? I hope those same people don't mind spending a very significant ammount more on anything with corn in it.
McCain here seems to have some good answers though. Instead of just focussing on lowering gas prices, he is actually looking for alternatives, or some could say, 'change.' I for one fully agree with moving away from gasoline dependent cars and into something that uses a cleaner, and cheaper fuel. Take the hydrogen cell for example.
I also agree with the 5000 dollar tax credit for anyone who owns a car with no carbon emissions. That would promote the cars being bought, and then with less of a demand for gas, the gas prices would fall, and then everything else would follow suit.
A lot of predictions say that our gas supply could run out by 2050. So moving away from our dependence on it is a very good idea.
Also, oil drilling tends to have a bell shape with how much they get out. it increases very quickly and is very easy to get out, until it gets past the top of the bell, then it is a lot harder to get out. I believe for some they use 1 gallon to get 2 gallons. So offshore drilling is really just a short term solution.
