I don't think anyone is calling Palin a "saint" for keeping her child. What's impressive is she practices what she preaches. You may not like what she preaches, and that's fine, but she deserves credit for standing by her beliefs in the most difficult of circumstances. She's...

Panda, Unless the guy was kidding or is accidentally guilty of writing a very badly phrased PM, anyone who intentionally writes a letter like that isn't worth the time to find out who he really is. It doesn't matter what the guy looks like, a guy like that ain't worth much. Congrats...

freedomCM, more taxes aren't needed. Less spending is. I'll give you that the Repubs have screwed that one up lately and the party base is pissed off about it. Obama and company WANT to spend like crazy. I'd rather take a chance on McCain than hand over power to someone who openly wants to...

Anyone got any scoop on INGdirect? How's it doing?

Tim, I heart you. Someday you and I should work this out via paintball!!

I love you Panda. But I wanna go on record predicting your plan will, long term, not work. Please, Panda, just stick with moderation and balance. It's so much better for you in the long run. It will take longer, for sure, to take weight off that way, but it is 10x more likely to stay...

I think Bush's legacy will depend entirely on how Iraq ultimately turns out. If all goes well, Bush's legacy may be much more positive than many people may think. If we pull out and all goes to hell, Bush's legacy will also be much more positive.

Panda, here's the super secret to weight loss: caloric output must exceed caloric intake. That's all. Doesn't matter what you actually eat, doesn't matter how you actually exercise, just that, in the end, output exceeds intake. The next piece of super secret advice: don't exercise...

What does this mean for the employees at Corporate in Irvine. I have two friends there. Are they without a job today???

Vicstah, that's perfect for me! It's a little far, but I certainly walk to Heritage Park. Thank you! I'll try that one :-)

Guys, where in Irvine (or nearby) does one go to see fireworks on the 4th?

By the way, Mr. Green Cactus, I love your avatar. Was that picture taken outside the Supreme Court yesterday?

green_cactus there actually have been studies showing this, that conservatives give considerably more money to charity than liberals. I'll see if I can find it and link to it. It was very interesting. It also showed that working class people give more (% wise) than people better off...

woodbury owner..how'd it go? I'm a slob and a half and decided it's time to admit I need a little help too!

I've wondered about this too. Obama and Clinton are very similar policy-wise, so it does seem odd. I guess I see two reasons Clinton supporters may balk. I think Obama comes across as more of an extreme liberal than Hillary and McCain comes off as a more moderate Republican and some moderate...

Hi Guys, Eva, I'm sorry if I misunderstood your statement. I thought you were saying there is no middle ground b/c I took "hater" to imply malice. I spoke of "religious people" b/c that is the most commonly cited example of groups who are less than tolerant of gays. I chose my...

Eva, I'm with you in thinking homosexuality should be accepted and treated as normal, healthy human behavior for those who happen to be gay. BUT, if we go around labelling everyone who disagrees with our viewpoint a hater, aren't we then just as intolerant? Isn't there room to respectfully...

Yeah, Trooper discrimination is probably more fitting a word. But is discrimating between two things always inherently evil? We all know the dangers of "separate but equal," but I also see some benefit by potentially maintaining some distinction when it comes to things like children. At least...

Hey Trooper! I agree with you 100% there are a lot of haters out there. But I hope you don't think everyone who has reservations about gay marriage is a hater. Like you and I discussed there are people who are pro-gay but with reservations with respect to children and gay marriage...
