Re: Not to get political, but...
How bout them Skins down in nawlins today, fellas?
Seriously, I think that arguing politics on TWP does two things... * makes everyone look stupid * makes everyone angry The sun comes up in the morning and politics on TWP is just stupid. It's just one of those things that never changes no matter how hard you try. |

Re: Not to get political, but...
What's this tax cut everyone speaks of? I'm single and I am getting rapped to the tune of about 18K a year in taxes. The only thing keeping Uncle Sam from sodomizing me some more with a dildo while he takes a rest is my home. And if that wasn't enough, when Uncle Sam isn't having his way with me, the state is for owning a home.
So yea, as far as I am concerned the Tax cut total BS. The way I see it, the "middle class" people are getting $300 checks and the rich guys are getting their capital gains tax reduced to 15%. Where is my god damn check to buy that new PS3 god damn it?

Re: Not to get political, but...
saden1, I don't think any suggested "flat tax" would truly be flat down to the last dollar. For example, see the Wikipedia entry:
Flat tax - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia There are options, but I think the most important is, as you mention, to get away from these phony tax shelters that favor the extremely rich. Like you said, they get enough puckering from the private sector, they don't need it from the gov't, too. |

Re: Not to get political, but...
Political talks on TWP always end up so well. What's the over/under on when this thread gets so out of hand it needs to be locked? I say Tuesday. I'd love to say the win today and the Xmas season would keep people in good enough moods to hold on 'til Wednesday but I know better when it comes to the politcal threads.

Re: Not to get political, but...
Hey, if your face moves (unlike Nancy Pelosi and Michael Jackson's) and you're followed by cameras constantly...they're going to get pictures of you that look strange because they're in mid-speaking or when they catch you being surprised by the idiotic questions people ask you at press conferences.
Let's look at another major political figure: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Now I must go gouge my eyeballs out with bleach-soaked forks. |

Re: Not to get political, but...
That last pic is funny. They look like a couple coke head hippies. It's funny to think that one became our president for 8 years, and the other became a senator of New York.

Re: Not to get political, but...
Ok, let's lock this immature and idotic thread now. It's a FOOTBALL site.
Yeah, I'd want it locked if it was ANYONE we're giggling like pre-puberty boys about. Go to a CNN or Al Jezeera board if you want to spend your day with this kind of crap. |

Re: Not to get political, but...
Whaaa?! How can you comment on this thread, and then assert that it shouldn't be commented on? :confused:

FWIW, some of the pictures you posted are funny as well. But, apparently we can't laugh at them because "Buster didn't say it's OK." Quote:
