Really...all this takes is a 30 second Google search people.

This kind of aid has been going on since the sixties.

This is precisely why a lot of us are so concerned about any government spending programs (especially new ones). They NEVER go away. They just go on forever and before you know it, entire constituencies build up around the continuous flow of US taxpayer dollars. Just because something has been going on for 40 or 50 years does not automatically make it right....right?

Agreed...but what KRAM so blantantly stated, and what based on past experiences what SUMG was implying was more of the tired "look at BHO...look at how he's spending our tax dollars...socialism...BHO would rape Bristol Palin...I'm gonna start a militia and take my country back, this ain't the 'murica I grew up in...an America with 2 water fountains..."crap that gets constantly recycled on here.

Sound a little extreme to me. I guess the silver-lining in all this is that a lot more Americans are interested in what their government is actually doing. They are actively seeking out information about what their govenment is up to and starting to ask questions (maybe some uncomfortable ones to our elected representatives in Washington) and to me that's a good thing. Perhaps Obama has been an unwitting catalyst for this, but I'll give him credit for shaking the tree and waking people up.

So nice to be so smugly clairvoyant! I glad CBL is around to tell us all what we "state" and "imply". How very nice of you. :lol::lol:

Hello, McFly. That is exactly what a number of non-thinking conservatives did when David Letterman made the joke about AROD and Bristol Palin. How is this any different?

This stuff has been flying around in emails since Al Gore invented the internet.

The parallels are striking. I demand a backhanded apology/explanation from CBL or I'm boycotting him.

I think it's great. And a big "F You" to every country who criticizes America for our excesses. We may use the most resources, but we also produce more than anybody else and we give more money away than any other nation.

But we are a down right mean country? I'm just now proud of my country because it's national soccer team finally won a game yesterday against someone and the longhorns had to drive back from Nebraska with tears in their eyes?

      ***OFFICIAL ARMY VS MEAN GREEN IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      Daily had three runs near the 50 all game and all 3 came with the game at 7-3 and before the 4th quarter. Are you're really suggesting they were draining the clock up 4 with 20+ minutes to go instead of expanding their lead to two possessions? Our defense was not shut down, sure. No G5 defense really ever is against the service academies if you think death by paper cut for 10 plays without allowing a score doesn't count. Your statements that our defense couldn't force turnovers for long periods of play and even lucked out on a fumble are asinine. Army doesn't committ foolish turnovers. They've had 3 turnovers all year, 2 of which were this past Saturday in Denton. That's not luck. You don't want to give credit where it's due and that's fine. I'll move on to next week. You can keep ignoring the jobs our defense and special teams (sniffed out the fake punt) did. If our offense were truly elite, we'd have at least scored 1 touchdown. Couldn't even do that.

      Why were the concession lines so damn long?

      I think the problem with the line that I was in was how slow the concession workers were. It took 3 to 5 minutes for each costumer. I assumed everyone was ordering chicken cordon bleu or something. Then I got my turn and had to wait 3-5 minutes for a diet coke, a bag of popcorn, and a beer.

      This guy can coach

      The current Leadership at UNT would have never considered this guy when he was cheap enough to hire here and clear he could coach (near end of tenure at Elon or his start at James Madison). I will tell you why. 1. Not no ties to Texas or Big 12 after 1990. 2. Not a well known “Air Raid/Spread Guru” All this makes me wonder does our athletic department do after action report on football coaches that end being very successful at programs that aren’t historically successful. I think it would be extremely helpful doing that for coaches we passed on or never got on our radar but maybe should have during a HC transition. If I were hired as AD, other than a budget review, reviewing our hiring processes for Football head coaches and the “ones who got away” would be my first order of business. If Eric Morris completes his time here without winning a bowl game or conference championship and extensive review of everything we do that setups our football program to win should be reviewed.
