  1. Rick, Actually the point is that guy was attempting to make a point that getting shot down is some how important in the context of the race or else he wouldn't have pointed out that Senator Obama had never done that. I guess it all boils down to a person's perspective. When I first heard the comments, I was pretty offended, but that was because I only heard what Clark said without context. Placed in context, I actually am not that bothered with it. He was just responding to the other indivdual saying well Senator Obama has never flown/been shot down, and he just pointed out that he didn't think that qualifies someone. Which I agree with. As to the other point about military service. I do agree somewhat with that point as it relates to his support of Senator Kerry. As to his own military service, General Clark stated his military service in leading NATO missions in Kosovo (I think) are what prepared him for the Presidency. He stated that Senator McCain's service did not prepare him as well because he was never a commander of a wartime unit.
  2. Unfortunately, I tend to agree. The only solution is a comprise. I'd really like to see us develop some of the shale in Colorado/Wyoming and other places.
  3. Actually, to defend EE, he did address my question through a pm. I cannot defend much (well actually anything) he's previously posted, but I do think that posting an article from StormFront was an honest mistake.
  4. Rick, How about Charley Black (an individual associated with the McCain campaign) saying last week that McCain would benefit from another terrorist attack? Or Grover Norquist, someone not directly associated with the campaign but someone important enough that McCain sends representatives to his weekly meetings, saying Obama is just John Kerry with a tan?
  5. I think the question is not about the merits of any specific article on the website, but as to why you were on that website in the first place. I guess conventional wisdom would probably not cause someone to think " I'm really interested in finding information on gas production/prices etc., let me look to a renowned racist website for guidance".
  6. Ah, I had heard about that "connection", but I guess myself found it tenous (sp) at best. I do agree that I would classify Ayers past actions as those of terrorism. Although I may agree with issues he may support, I don't think actions that involve violence are the solution. As far as the connection - they both served on the same board of an anti-poverty organization in Chicago, it wasn't as if Obama appointed him to the board. http://blog.washingtonpost.com/fact-checke...connection.html
  7. Who would be the admitted terrorists he has associated with?
  8. Sure, I will donate 75% of all money received.
  9. You can't expect people to actually research wether or not something is true. I mean everything you read in e-mail forwards is true right? I know I'm expecting my check from the heir of an African Country I've never heard of anyday now.
  10. Or we could pay the equivalent of militia's money for every per they arrest who they say are child molestor's and then we could lock all of them up indefinitely based solely on their word. Surely that would just make the problem go away.
  11. Actually, from everything I've read the Chinese drilling thing is not true. http://www.motherjones.com/mojoblog/archiv...laims_chin.html
  12. The sad part is some may suggest we get rid of trials and/or appeals in order to save money.
  13. We've missed you. Please stay!
  14. Glad to see our name in the mix. Even if we don't land them, it's nice to see that Coach Jones isn't affraid to target players that some may feel are out of our reach.
  15. I gaurantee you the kid will see the court as a college player. Even at 8th grade one can tell when a player has the skill set to succeed, and I believe he demonstrated that in the various camps he has attended. Now as to commitments and handing out sholarships at that age, that is ridiculous. Coach G probably won't even be at Kentucky in five years and team needs can change drastically from year to year. I think the Junior year is really the earliest this process should begin.
  16. Basketball AZ State APR 905 - No penalties??? Auburn APR 905 - No penalties based on demonstrated improvement and comparison to others schools? Can we compare ourselves to Auburn and get our scholarship back? Clemson APR 920 - No penalties Indiana APR 899 - No penalties for same reason as Auburn It doesn't take long to see that this process is extremely arbitrary and that the Athletic Department should appeal the penalties (if that's possible).
  17. He had us listed on his recruiting profile on ESPN.com .
  18. I think that may be the consensus, but I really expect TT to blossom next year. I can't wait, I love his aggressiveness.
  19. Good - I'm not the only one. I also keep checking Rivals and Scout, although Rivals still has him signed with Davidson. No mention of not qualifying. I remember going through the same routine with Tristin Thompson last year.
  20. I know...I hope the same. I like the fact that we still have the scholarship to offer. Hopefully we'll get on the phone ASAP and say we've got a huge Greek fanbase at UNT (well we at least have TheTastyGreek) and that will seal the deal.
  21. OldTimer - who could I get in touch with to get access to the recruiting board? Thanks
  22. I'm sure Billy G at Kentucky is alreay recruiting him.
