You'll shoot your eye out....

She's not even a knife.

And anyway Balthy, I am trying to show how stupid the "We won't sit down with the Iranians without preconditions" tactic is. The Iranians could do the same to us.

Nope.... no fallout at all. Of course... fallout is a much scarier word in this case.

Tattoo on a pitbull? Normally, I wouldn't care... but given who she is and the things she has said, it makes me :rotflmao:

Aren't we supposed to be better than them?

You are quick to forget that the Republican took out police brutality insurance and then went around zip tying any protesters.

I suppose that begs the question "What is the DTS's competition?" The 45k-60k range will only get you into a 5-series, E-class or A6, from the Euros. Sure, those may be faster and more sure footed around the Nurburgring than the DTS, but what if that's not your goal? If ultimate comfort with more than capable hustle at around $50,000, the DTS is it.

It's a new school year.

drop the standard Escalade; Keep the ESV and EXT build a Lambda Accolade.

a friend of mine had an 8 year old girl who would openly masturbate in class.... during lessons and everything.

I would imagine that would be a common fear when wandering the halls of GME.

says the guy supporting the candidate that sung the pop hit "Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran" edit: If I were Ahmenijhad and was being asked to negotiate the cessation of building nuclear reactors by President McCain (shudder), I'd demand a public apology for his heartless joking about killing Iranian citizens before moving forward.

Ah yes... the Department of Education as run under the Bush administration. Certainly no amount of incompetence there.

Are you trying to tell me that infrastructure and education should be privatized? A strong, healthy, educated, and mobile workforce has MANY other benefits. Lower crime, higher standard of living for everyone, better growth....

:spit: I'm sorry, could you hand me a towel? I need to clean the hot chocolate off my keyboard. ok... try that one again? It might be vaguely true if every bank was failing.... but it's only a handful that actually are. The risky decisions weren't forced on anyone..... they were the result of bridled, unabashed, unashamed greed.

LTZ is my vote. There isn't much difference in equipment. I used to have a CTS with the 3.6 and it's a great engine, but with today's gas prices I no longer find it justifiable. If this car will primarily be used for commuting just get the 4-cylinder. If you're looking for something to throw around... well... you're looking at the wrong car anyway. I just priced out a fairly base 9-3, new... and they can be had with the Turbo-4 and 5-speed for 24 and change with a sunroof. Far more tossible. If you really want the V6, well get yourself something that has the moves to go with the muscle and find yourself a CPO CTS.

Biden is probably the most qualified Senator in international relations. That is Obama's weakest area. Plus, the worst they can smear him with is that he plagiarized some British politician's speech 20 years ago. I like that he talks too much and says what's on his mind. He's much more "straight talk" than McCain is these days.

What about taxing the rich and giving that money to infrastructure, education, and healthcare? A strong, healthy, intelligent, mobile workforce is the BEST gift you can give to the capitalists.

What if I'm the CEO of a large company... say.. an insurance company. I place a lot of REALLY risky stock market bets using other people's money. I pay myself a record setting salary and get the board of directors <CEOs at other ginormus companies> to approve it. I feel really good because 1. I made a bet using other people's money that could potentially pay off big, 2. I paid myself for the wisdom of making that bet, 3. If the bet was wrong, my company is so large that the government can't let it go bankrupt, 4. If it does go bankrupt, I've already negotiated a $41 million dollar golden parachute that I get before anyone else gets any money........ The incentive to f@#k it up so badly that you require a government bail out is HUGE. The Republicans are opposed to any salary cap for companies receiving bailout money. I find this astonishing. You keep throwing around Socialism as a bad word...... I say that in this case Socialism is not only required but justified. I'd have no problem adding a line to the tax code that says "You're on the executive team of a financial serviced company that failed in the past 8 years, your tax is 90% and retroactive"

Make 3 lefts.
