  1. No, because Andy Scott is a douchebag.
  2. Try again. tell me what happened here. While we're still beating the horse, let's reset. Give us the quotes you find so objectionable that you are willing to forgive the poor Russians for having such shitty tracking of the drones they lob into civilian areas with no military targets.
  3. @Captainant He did say something. Ana ain't listening
  4. I don't have many people on the ignore list, but he was the first one. I asked myself when was the last time that he had something worth reading. I couldn't think of anything. So, into the bin he went.
  5. Oh yeah that's why I have him on ignore. Ain't missing anything.
  6. How would you characterize the indiscriminate bombings of civilians? I cited the most widely known terrorist attack on America. It's not hyperbole to say that they ignored the available intel. Tenet is not a political commentator.
  7. I've watched him eat some stuff that I wondered what his guts were doing the next day. That lard pile with the fetid meat in Morocco stirred into some curry like stuff with raw eggs is imprinted in the brain. It made the box of bugs in Oaxaca look tasty.
  8. Curiously he has abandoned the field. I wonder why that might be.
  9. British Columbia Premier David Eby says the province will introduce legislation in the coming days that would give it the ability to levy fees on commercial trucks travelling from the United States through the province to Alaska. Eby says the move against Alaska-bound trucks is part of a series of responses the province is planning after the "unprecedented attack" from the United States that put a 25 per cent tariff on Canadian goods. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/us-truck-tolls-alaska-1.7476852
  10. https://www.politico.eu/article/attacks-will-be-spectacular-cia-war-on-terror-bush-bin-laden/ The drama of failed warnings began when Tenet and Black pitched a plan, in the spring of 2001, called “the Blue Sky paper” to Bush’s new national security team. It called for a covert CIA and military campaign to end the Al Qaeda threat—“getting into the Afghan sanctuary, launching a paramilitary operation, creating a bridge with Uzbekistan.” “And the word back,” says Tenet, “‘was ‘we’re not quite ready to consider this. We don’t want the clock to start ticking.’” (Translation: they did not want a paper trail to show that they’d been warned.) Black, a charismatic ex-operative who had helped the French arrest the terrorist known as Carlos the Jackal, says the Bush team just didn’t get the new threat: “I think they were mentally stuck back eight years [before]. They were used to terrorists being Euro-lefties—they drink champagne by night, blow things up during the day, how bad can this be? And it was a very difficult sell to communicate the urgency to this.”
  11. Uh we had Intel and chose not to do anything multiple times. The serious people are no longer in charge. They are beginning to realize that they need to hire back people they fired. Farmers are freaking out that they aren't getting paid for the crops sent by way of USAID. Do they need to eat a bullet because they're bankrupt before it gets important?
  12. The Reaves experiment has concluded in Toronto.
  13. It's when the design aesthetic supercedes the functionality. See Balenciaga. Sure, it's pretty but does it work.
  14. There are two kinds of VW owners. Ones that will only have VW and those that won't ever get another one. I'm in the second group.
  15. I don't give a shit if they cut off aid for Ukraine here. It has lit a fire under the Euros. Trump can deny the money to our defense contractors but it doesn't matter to the Euros. 20 countries ready to get that sweet sweet cash. And Lavrov isn't happy about it. Fuck off and die you absolutely horrific pos. --- The plan, spearheaded by the UK and France, was set out by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer at this weekend's summit of 18 European and Canadian leaders, and would work to uphold any ceasefire in Russia's war on Ukraine. Russia's foreign minister Sergei Lavrov said such a move "can't be allowed" because it would amount to the "direct, official and unveiled involvement of Nato members in the war against Russia". https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c2017v5ngxpo
  16. I saw Eisen and his 5 rumors yesterday. Notably absent was the talk of Sanders being "arrogant" and "brash" in some of his interviews or his 3 word reply of "How u know" when asked about it online. That's the slippage I'm expecting. Going second to the Browns? Yeah I don't think so. Tomlin takes him late? Not sure about that either. I don't think Tomlin will put up with his shit and I don't think Sanders will stoop to being a Brown. I wouldn't touch him. I can see the Jets taking him because they are run by a teenager but I don't know who else will be giving him a serious look. Listening to Bob Sturm talk about him yesterday he called his 10 yd plus passes awful, but strange things possess the football minds on draft day. I think he's toxic.
  17. The chair of the House GOP's campaign arm told Republican lawmakers Tuesday to stop holding in-person town halls amid a wave of angry backlash over the cuts undertaken by President Donald Trump's administration. Rep. Richard Hudson (R-N.C.), the NRCC chair, delivered the message inside a closed-door meeting of House Republicans, according to three people granted anonymity to describe the private remarks. https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2025/03/04/congress/gop-town-halls-richard-hudson-00210024?fbclid=IwY2xjawI0Ea1leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHefWd1xDCfd5u2lOUmtPiFg6FCP1lmSYWr41Zp8LPx-29CVF428knnd3OA_aem_vDKuy6ywnf5asZf_wBPRQQ
  18. If you get any dumber we'll have to feed and water you twice a day.
  19. Least surprising combine result ever. If that delusional old man wastes a draft pick on him I'll celebrate the acceleration of the chaos that will accompany it. Plus it'll make for some great radio on the little ticket.
