Chain? Belt? Shaft? No...Newton's 3rd law.

NOT safer than climbing. That rear caliper doesn't look well braced.

Nice! I've been wanting to climb Christie for a long, long time. The late Robert L Wood describes Martin's Park as one of the most beautiful meadows in all the Olympics. True? Any pics of the glacier itself? I would love to see. Views out to Dellabarre?

The next bike:

See also Kennesaw Georgia, and apparently some "two dozen other" communities around the country. The town in upstate New York that prompted the news story had tied gun ownership to the franchise - no gun in the house, no ballot. That's why the news story - connecting it to the right to vote made it controversial. That was a few years ago now, so maybe they've repealed it, or watered it down. Maybe it got thrown out by one of those "activists" judges that have taken over your judiciary. Maybe it still stands. You haven't' shown where any of these "laws" are tied to the right to vote. You haven't even given the name of the town where this supposedly was enacted. Regardless, your supposition that Canadians have more freedom of choice regarding firearms and somehow linking that to an ultra-obscure voting rights case is ridiculous.

Advanced degrees are much more about persistence and stubbornness than intelligence. That said, I've known some folks with advanced degrees that I wouldn't trust to manage a McDonalds. An advanced degree says absolutely nothing about your level of common sense or your ability to apply classroom based knowledge anywhere but in the classroom. And if you'd like i'd be more than happy to give you my credentials Yet many here, including Foraker and Tvashtarketena, are more than happy to support their anti-Bush positions with their (claimed and perceived) academic prowess. What is apparent to me is that those with higher ed degrees are sometimes the least likely to see fault in their arguments despite their self proclaimed critical thinking abilities. At some point critical is supplanted by cynical, and there doesn't seem to be any way out of the box. Bush is no genius - certain. But in this case, it was particularly galling to listen to a couple of douche bags (likely one-in-the-same, the "13" brothers) bash Bush's intellect when they are so clearly and glaringly deficient themselves. Ditto, glassgowkiss. I don't support an 'anti-Bush' agenda. I support a 'pro do-the-right-thing' agenda. So far, I have yet to see much in that category from this administration. Plus, how do you know I don't just have an 7th grade education? It wouldn't take much more than that to correctly assess this presidency as a failure. Clearly you're a pretty smart fella. In this particular case, I just think you're wrong. There are plenty of bumblers, warmongers, idiots, playboys, paranoids, racists, that have sat in the oval office. There are also a very, very few great men that have had the honor. I think history will judge Bush as a mediocre president.

Well done, MalCon. Murray is often fact-challenged.

No. Not in hindsight. But we're in it now. Do you think we should have gone into Afghanistan? Bosnia? Kosovo?

That was a good one. But start your own thread.

And I agree !!

It's an AP story, but linking to it through FOXNews is sure to get more of the locals all riled up thereby providing you and I with hours of valuable entertainment.

Don't know much about him - other than his wife is HOT. If I had to vote today it would still be McCain. That could change.

No. But they're still at least slightly better than the Democrat alternative. I still believe a Republican more true to GOP roots will prevail in 2008. BTW; I don't give a rat's ass about Glassgow's background. If you'll read back to the start of this thread you can see it was his own fat mouth that started this shit. I'm not gonna walk on eggshells just because some out-of-town anger management case douche bag who writes like he's fucking dyslexic wants to throw down.

Specifics would be nice this time, Murray. This isn't the first time you've been grossly "mistaken" about us.

Oh dear. You're angry now. This is just terrible.

You're a moron. Truly.

I would say that the onus is on you. Show me where Yale or Harvard have been charged with just "handing out" degrees. And try not to be so angry. GW is smarter than you, I'm sure. Rich kids go there? Well who'd have thought...

Just for accuracy's sake, I posted a specific list of them on that thread, that included at least one reference to the actual legislation. No. You did not. Re read the question. What freedoms have you lost?

Admission doesn't equal degree. Both of these schools are full of privileged brats, but I've never read anywhere that degrees are just "handed out". I'm sure he's just as entitled to his credentials as you are to your G.E.D.

You mean the guy with the Bachelor's from Yale and the Master's degree from Harvard?
