  1. Maybe we'll see this on the presidential limo soon. While searching for that image, I came across this. Don't remember seeing it before.
  2. Back on topic... Just read this by Peggy Noonan. Certainly not a favorite writer, often too impressed with her own cleverness, but she nails how many conservatives feel about Palin. It reads like a more polite version of Matt Taibbi's piece about her in Rolling Stone last year. http://online.wsj.com/article_email/SB124716984620819351-lMyQjAxMDI5NDE3MDExNjA5Wj.html
  3. One of the reasons we have to be skeptical of a government fix. We're asking a governmental system that's corrupt and broken to fix this system?
  4. A bit of hyperbole there. Organic and natural is a better option for sure, but can we produce enough affordable food that way to feed all of us? Are the services provided in the hospital today equal to what they were in 1957? Have you seen the (secular meaning here) miracles performed in the NICU? The technology and innovations made to make that possible isn't free. Is 4 days in the hospital in 1957 equivalent to 2 or 3 days today? IMO, one of the reasons health care is so expensive is that so few of us see the real cost. We pay our pittance of a co-pay and let our insurance, pai
  5. Ummm... The operating system would take up some of the available memory.
  6. Most of the people here can't seem to do it either. http://forums.viachicago.org/topic/27263-rank-the-wilco-albums/page__st__700
  7. In the case of the iPod, isn't part of that .3 gb loss due to the OS?
  8. Direct link. Lest anyone confuses Muammar Qadhafi with Jeff Tweedy.
  9. I think he could get away with ripping on her. If he's truly a conservative now, and I believe he is, he could get a lot of traction from conservatives like me who see right through her shallowness. Sure, he's lose a few of the FoxNews crowd, but oh well.
  10. Nice review. I've bookmarked your blog.
  11. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124702911173210237.html
  12. Freakin' Yankees. Carlos Gomez saves a grand slam and we still give up double digits.
  13. Excellent song, but not sure how it would've fit on YHF. They've played it enough live that it's become a significant part of the Wilco legacy w/o being on an LP.
  14. Sorry to hear that, Lynch. I just listened to the Ashes of American Flags from the video of the same name. Take care!
  15. If Rummy manages to show sincere contrition, then yes. I can't imagine that he would, but you never know. Edit: I vote mostly Republican and I've cut him more slack than anyone else here.
  16. Well said by both of you. Expressing guilt does not exonerate him, but at least he genuinely (imo) expressed sorrow for his actions. Very rare.
  17. Agreed. Never listened to his solo stuff, but love Raconteurs. I'll have to dig deeper.
  18. Being There #6?? To each their own, but wow!
  19. Anyone else think that's funny? The Tribune reports a sale of something they own citing an anonymous source??
  20. I agree w/ a lot of what you say here, cryptique. I haven't given up on W(TA) yet. I think a lot of what people have said about SBS here is more true about W(TA). I like Bull Black Nova but it's kind of a Spiders (slight return).
  21. I think Jeff has answered questions about Jay with a lot of honesty and grace. He could be very dishonest and overly sentimental. Given that their relationship ended several years ago and that the lawsuit made it somewhat hostile, I appreciate the forthright nature of his answers.
