  • The refs in LA are freaking insane?

    I'm a spurs fan and my teams winning but both teams are screwed with this crew headed by Crawford. This is the second game I'm watching out of L.A. (refused to watch the last thunder win due to the game before) where both teams can't play their game because of the refs. Terrible calls on both sides. Calls where both teams players are raising their hands at the same time because niether have any idea what the call is or who it's on. The fans are now ticked off. Really Crawford needs to be put into a retirement home.

  • How do you guys think House will end?

    i think thirteen returns and asks house to euthanize her. foreman finds out and threatens house with manslaughter if he does euthanize 13( foreman will always have feelings for her). house does it anyway and gets the death penalty since he is on parole. show ends with house being executed by lethal injection while the team , past patients, etc, watch through the glass

  • Does it seem odd the injuries that happen to teams before/during games against tebow?

    3 out of 5 teams he's played are last in thier division. when they arent last they have or had a myriad of injuries .this is even happening before tebow plays them: shonn greene jets,charles/orton/cassel chiefs, forte/cutler bears,peterson vikings,mcfadden/campbell raiders and others..tebow has too big of a market for the nfl to ignore

  • why were michael boehner and house republicans so satisfied with the debt ceiling deal?

    even so far as to say that they got 98 percent of what they wanted .

    however , every possible standard called this deal unsatisfactory and no doubt pushed us into the downgrade and the following market panic.

    was the other 2 percent of what they wanted the eventual downgrade?

  • how about everybody stop pointing to the democrats previous failure to pass a budget ?

    the rupublicans' filibusters halted everything. It is ridiculous to think they would have allowed the democratic controlled congress to send a budget proposal

  • why are the republicans so obviously against taxing the rich?

    it really is an innocent form of revenue which can decrease a deficit.

    in the past they have not decreased their spending and it did go a long way to decrease the deficit.

    its also a really simple solution to the problem of the great inequality of wealth in the nation.

  • are we becoming socialists?

    everbody now seems to be very critical of the inequality of wealth with the top 1 percent having most of it. other examples i see now are "lets make the president of the united states and members of both parties have the same pay as the average worker".

    the measures we use to determine how much individuals make are arbitrary and as good as any within a capitalistic economy. there will be no equality but that should be a given.

    so why the sudden push for higher taxes on those with higher incomes or the incomes of those in important positions to be slashed?

    these seem like socialism ideas..

    i do find it funny that those that are now saying those in office or the top earners should have their pay slashed or pay higher taxes are mostly the same ones that demonize socialism

  • Do you agree? I think we should put an end to govt. and privatize everything?

    I mean really the government has no place in my life . We are free. I should be able to choose what I want. Government can't tell me what to do.

    --Lets get rid of the FDA. Seriously I dont care how many people will die from no oversight on the production of produce and dairy. I pay for what i want.

    --Lets get rid of taxes all together. Seriosly, I don't care what portion of my taxes go to fund my states education system, unemployment benefits,construction projects,medicaid. If you can't pay for it thats your problem. Every man for himself.

    --Lets get rid of all regulation on banks. If they want to do lending on subprime mortgages until the cows come home I say we let them.

    Govt cant tell them what to do. Matter of fact. Lets get rid of thee entire national bank system. Screw it. Every state out for themselves

    --Damn bailouts. Who determines who's too big to fail. I dont care if AIG is in 60 plus countries. Let them fall.

    --Screw the auto industry. Especially our own Ford and GM . How dare they be bailed out.Even though allowing them to survive and post gains has is better than foreign automakers are the alternative. I say we let them die and BUY USA anyway...

    --How dare they try to make healthcare government run. Let the insurance companies deny whoever they want. They have to pocket as much profit as possible. Can't waste money on those who are actually ill and can't afford it themselves. Who cares if there have been numerous examples of frivolous spending in the health care industry costing billions and lives.

    --We are a capitalist country. We step on those who can't fend for themselves

  • how can a christian use dna as proof of an intelligent designer?

    when dna only creates an invidual capable of intelligence. Locking a person in a room for their life from birth will lead to that individual struggling with their ABC's for the rest of their life.

    DNA creates nothing more than a carrier of genes so they can be passed on. Even then the DNA mutates in a fashion that will kill an individual before it is born, destroy brain tissue from birth, swell organs , atrophy muscle, cause an indivual to chew its own anatomy off.

  • why did god wait so long to start working on curing/ preventing diseases?

    most cures , medicines are relatively recent... before that people would die from minor infections because there wasn't a tetnus shot. Why did god let people live so long with diseases and such when he was clearly able to cure them all along?

    is god only as powerful as a society's technology? because third world countries are still having problems with relatively simple medical problems.
