    Sorry to bring this thread back up, but i thought it was interesting how the thread took a wild turn and posters began their own rudimentary Big Soccer version of Plato's Republic.... :)

    Not to turn this into yet another gun debate, but this is the reason why people who sniff at the whole "lightly-armed citizenry standing as a check against a government with overwhelming amounts of high-tech weaponry" aren't really being as imaginative as they should be.

    And by the way, our boys aren't exactly being sent home in bodybags by the most powerful, most advanced weapons that money can buy.

    I have to admit, I always viewed this one as the *best* argument for the "conservative" view of the 2nd Amendment, but I thought it unrealistic in modern times. If there is one thing Bush's boondoggle in Iraq has shown, it's that a determined local fighter can do pretty well despite an "arms gap". Consider me fully converted.

    As much as I hate all this mudslinging and media coverage, this system still works, albeit imperfectly. We should consider ourselves very lucky. In many parts of the world, they would kill for an opportunity to elect their leaders.

    How creative. Thanks for adding to the general level of debate. I'm sure your party thanks you for your brilliant words that draw the opposition closer to understanding and even converting to your point of view. It is comments like this that have led to a thread like this. Nov 2 can't get here soon enough!

    ... bump ...


    Oh, thank heaven it's the weekend! That means I have SOCCER to distract me from this ********ing awful election.

    No more Bush and Kerry and Osama Bin Laden for me! It'll be the MLS playoffs, some EPL action and whatever other soccer I can find on TV to take me away from the drone, drone, drone!

    That's great because I can't take this election any more this week than I could last week ... I'm sick of it.

    Of course, if DC United loses its playoff bid to the MetroStars I'll surely need the ********ing awfulness of the election to distract me from the ********ing awfulness of such a horrible outcome.

    Who's in the MLS finals? All I know is it's not the Fire.

    Two more goddamn days! Bottle of MacClallan 10 year-old sitting on the shelf waiting for 21:00 hours tomorrow.

    Congradulations on avoiding the hell that comes with being a Crew fan. Add in the fact that the system hard drive on my desktop machine suffered a sudden catestrophic failure on Saturday, and the fact that while I was at the Crew game yesterday I got THREE political calls (one from some democratic org, one from Rudy, and one from the Governator), and I'm all primed for Tuesday! Woo-hoo!

    I got a call from Jerry Brown and one from Julia Louis-Dreyfus. Brown wanted me to vote against the three-strikes revision.

    Julia just wanted to have wild monkey sex with me.
