I guess Ken Adelman must be another conservative only endorsing Obama because of race! -- (link) - Reagen Oct 20, 18:57 6
- That's a hell of endorsement. Well worth the read. - Mop Oct 20, 19:05
- Of course, Christopher Buckley's endorsement was totally about race. -- nm - Mop Oct 20, 19:01
- not to mention that Powell has kind of been at odds with the Bush admin for quite a while - Die Incognito Oct 20, 19:00
- Are white people that endorse Obama race traitors? Or just deluded? -- nm - TWuG Oct 20, 18:59 2
  - Can't we be both? -- nm - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 20, 19:01

    - No, tjat Ty. He lives here on the couch. -- nm - Qale Oct 20, 18:58 2
      - SFEK: That's Ty... -- nm - Qale Oct 20, 18:59 1
        
        That is the reason I won't vote for Ty for Judge. -- nm - Redmond Oct 20, 19:00
    - jovian had one bad subway day and gets branded for life? -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 18:58 1

- sounds like it's a good episode when I get to see it -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 18:51
I want to bet someone on the opening of HSM3. Loser has to watch and write reviews of Frank TV. -- nm - Qale Oct 20, 18:48 4
- I bet it is in technicolor :) -- nm - peglegpete Oct 20, 18:51
- I figured watching HSM3 would be enough punishment. -- nm - Mop Oct 20, 18:49 1
  - I'd see it if I had Colin and my friend Elf with me and we were allowed to MST3K it. -- nm - Qale Oct 20, 18:51
- is there anyone left who wouldn't sock him in the mouth if they met him on the street? -- nm - chris Oct 20, 18:49
I just ordered three mail order Giordano's pizzas for my brother. I'm curious how well this turns out. - David Oct 20, 18:44 8
- he could get lucky and they'll get lost somewhere en route to him -- nm - chris Oct 20, 18:48 4
  - Ooh, the pixie anti-curse! Nice! -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:49 2
    - "why does my brother hate me?! what did i ever do to him?!!" -- nm - chris Oct 20, 18:52 1
      - "and when did he stop calling himself pixie?" -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:53
  - due Giordano's is great stuff. -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 18:49
- my guess is they won't stay hot. - Reagen Oct 20, 18:48 2
  - depends, have you seen how fast the delivery boys drive? -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 18:49 1
    - Sidenote: delivery charge was $55.18. -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:50
Im sorry, but Heroes is f*cking excellent this season. nm - Jovian Oct 20, 18:44 5
- quite good yes -- nm - Beaker Oct 20, 18:44
- I am loving this season. More than Season 1 even. -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 18:44 3
  - ditto...they better just not let us down like the end of S1. -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 18:47 2
    - spoils - Beaker Oct 20, 18:48 1
      - spoiler?? it has not aired here yet, but - peglegpete Oct 20, 18:51
Heroes spoiler - ty97 Oct 20, 18:40
this guy has a cool power. -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 18:40 20
- butt tongue? - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:43
- spoiler spec...for Heroes - Mel Profit Oct 20, 18:40 18
  - I mentally add "Hogan's" to every Heroes post. I don't know why. -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:42 15
    - cause you're old? -- nm - J Oct 20, 18:45 12
      - Nonsense. There isn't a 12-year-old in North America who doesn't know Hogan's Heroes. -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:45 11
        
        isnt that the one with Jason Bateman? nm - Jovian Oct 20, 18:54
        
        I've never seen an episode of it. - Reagen Oct 20, 18:51 3
        
        I don't exactly have it on season pass. I still know what it is. -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:53 1
        
        I'm just saying I don't think it was ever on Canadian TV. -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:58
        
        me neither, but have heard of it -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 18:52
        
        I know the movie...does that count -- nm - J Oct 20, 18:47 5
        
        There's a movie? -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:49 4
        
        the one with Greg Kinnear the biography of the star maybe? -- nm - Beaker Oct 20, 18:51 1
        
        yep i saw parts of it last wekk pritty good movie -- nm - DaneDukeNuuk Oct 20, 18:53
        
        ummm....no there isn't....I was thinking of something else cause really i've never seen the show -- nm - J Oct 20, 18:51 1
        
        The TV show was losely based on the William Holden movie Stalag 17. -- nm - mara Oct 20, 18:54
    - I KNOW NUTHING! -- nm - Mohinder Oct 20, 18:43
    - I mentally add "Hulk" to all Hogan references. I know why though. -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 18:43
  - Heroes: After Dark. -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:41
  - never mind. -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 18:41
If it's Halloween, it must be the exact same marketing campaign as the previous SAW flicks. -- nm - Qale Oct 20, 18:39
Daniel Craig offered the role of Thor...turned it down.... -- (link) - Remlik Oct 20, 18:35 4
- cool. he is better suited for LOKI -- nm - peglegpete Oct 20, 18:46
- Vorenus! -- nm - Beaker Oct 20, 18:38 1
  - he'd either be Donald Blake or Loki. -- nm - Remlik Oct 20, 18:39
- Good. Now if every actor offered the role would do the same we can be spared the atrocity such a film would be. -- nm - TWuG Oct 20, 18:36
Stone Cold! Stone Cold! -- nm - Qale Oct 20, 18:33
I'm slightly torn that you all may have the president figure out before I even wake up in Denmark. - ty97 Oct 20, 18:32 4
- huh? - DaneDukeNuuk Oct 20, 18:34 3
  - next month. - ty97 Oct 20, 18:35 2
    - ahh - DaneDukeNuuk Oct 20, 18:37 1
      - yep -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 18:38
CBS reported that Palin was originally going to sing that hip hop tune that Amy Poler did in her place -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 20, 18:26 3
- She didn't seem to have the...rhythm for that. -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:40
- i dont buy it - i think it was staged -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:27 1
  - agreed. I dont buy that fucking bullshit for one fucking second. nm - Jovian Oct 20, 18:29
Wow. Rush Limbaugh really is a fucking douche. "Powell endorsement totally about race." -- nm - TWuG Oct 20, 18:12 59
- After Obama wins, bigots like this are going to make it their mission to portray his presidency as a failure - Stewie Oct 20, 18:45 11
  - "After"? they've been doing so pre-emptively for months now. the douchebag below says he'll set us back "40 years" - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:46 10
    - um, no...I didn't say that....reading is hard. - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 18:49 9
      - who's going to riot? Who's going to segregate people? -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:53 2
        
        Apparently you haven't seen Obama's inauguration speech. The phrase "Where all the white women at?" is testing very well in urban areas. -- nm - TWuG Oct 20, 18:56
        
        im still piecing it together, but i think he's afraid of the negroes -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:55
      - so... let me get this straight. if we elect a black man as President, the country will revert to Jim Crow ideals? - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:52 5
        
        If we elect some guy who wants class warfare, you will see this place go back because those that have had success will not stay - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 18:56 4
        
        36 per cent tax - captialism. 39 per cent tax - socialism. - Reagen Oct 20, 19:00 1
        
        that would have made Bill Clinton a socialist too. i must have slept through the riots in 92 -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 19:05
        
        i thought this was about race? now its about commies? i cant keep up. - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:59 1
        
        No, it's about this guy trying to undo American ideals (capitalism). - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 19:03
- He was also very classy in calling him "Genital Powell" - BB Oct 20, 18:28
- "color" me not surprised -- nm - Gwaahjo Oct 20, 18:22
- It depends on how it came about, really. If Powell went public with it, it's much different than some media outlet asking him. -- nm - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 18:15 32
  - I don't see that. -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 18:17 31
    - no? the media has no impact? -- nm - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 18:19 30
      - Ir I read what you said properly (please correct me if I'm wrong) - ty97 Oct 20, 18:27 4
        
        Yes, I'm saying that it would be the PC response, were he cued by the media. Endorsing McCain would cause an uproar. -- nm - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 18:33 3
        
        there would be no uproar if Powell endorsed McCain. -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:49
        
        I see no reason he can't choose to endorse on his own. - ty97 Oct 20, 18:37
        
        do you think it never occured to anyone to ask him until now? -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:34
      - it only counts if it's on his show? -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:24 24
        
        absolutely not--my point is media impact has 100% driven this election. Without it, Obama's "cult of personality" wouldn't exist. - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 18:31 22
        
        was i foolish to hope the trolls wouldn't make it over to ST? -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:44 1
        
        They let you in, though, so the bar was already low - TWuG Oct 20, 18:48
        
        I like the Biblical reference followed by the balls cut off thing. It's hard to mix a message that much. -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:41 2
        
        Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth, testicle for a testicle. -- nm - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 20, 18:45 1
        
        "A testicle for a testicle leaves all men cringing." -- nm - TWuG Oct 20, 18:49
        
        and how does this go towards what motivated Powell's decision? -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:34 16
        
        the stage is what is in question...if he had Olbermann in his face, asking whom he was going to endorse, it's a lot different than Powell coming out - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 18:37 6
        
        Did you just suggest that Obama supporters don't know who Condoleezza Rice is? - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 20, 18:48 2
        
        dont you know? all liberals are festering idiots who have no clue how great things are under W. -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:50 1
        
        Signed, the scary, scary people in those YouTube videos. -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:55
        
        "if they know who she is in the first place" are you for real? you really think the "Obama crowd" doesnt know Rice? -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:48 1
        
        I'm a proud member of the Obama crowd. I know who Condi Rice is. -- nm - TWuG Oct 20, 18:51
        
        And Powell would have had the option of no comment - as Rice has done. - Reagen Oct 20, 18:39
        
        Easy. Powell saw the media lining up behind Obama and forcing hundreds of thousands of people to turn out at rallies and he decided - TWuG Oct 20, 18:35 8
        
        Couldn't he have, oh, I dunno... said "no comment" and not given an endorsement to either candidate? -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 20, 18:37 7
        
        I think that would've caused an uproar. One of my profs was married to a guy working for Powell years ago, and Powell's wife didn't want him running - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 18:42 5
        
        an uproar from whom? -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:43 4
        
        the African American community and probably the media as well, seeing as how in the tank they are for Obama -- nm - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 18:45 3
        
        so the fact that he hadn't said anything until now and no one had criticised him in the slightest doesn't register? - Reagen Oct 20, 18:47
        
        "Powell Endorsement Watch: Day5! Colin Powell still has not endorsed Barack Obama! Why?! What the fuck is wrong with the man!? More after the break" - TWuG Oct 20, 18:47 1
        
        L4! -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:54
        
        He could have. He chose not to. Is he obligate *not* to endorse? No, so why not endorse the person he sees as the most fit? -- nm - TWuG Oct 20, 18:39
        
        wait, I misunderstood. but still. - Reagen Oct 20, 18:28
- I knew someone would say it, but didn't think it would be him. -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 18:14 11
  - how would it not be him? He's the designated lightning rod. -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:24 4
    - This might sound odd, but I thought him above it. -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 18:28 3
      - the only thing he's above is his ideal weight. -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:29 2
        
        and, ah, this isn't my best thread - Reagen Oct 20, 18:30 1
        
        the irony post from earlier is keeping your daily average up, don't worry -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 18:31
  - the real funny thing is with Rush, wasnt he and some others swearing backward and forward they wouldnt get behind McCain several months ago? nm - Jovian Oct 20, 18:21 5
    - oh yeah, I forget if it was msnbc or TDS that did before and after quotes where they all just talk out both sides of the ass - zeitgeist Oct 20, 18:29 3
      - the Rove stuff pre and post Palin is the best. -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 18:35 2
        
        "He was just the mayor of Richmond..." "She was the mayor of Wasilla!" -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:36 1
        
        that was some of the best Daily Show bits in a while... -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 18:39
    - he swore that McCain was going to ruin the Republican party. Two weeks later McCain was a genius. -- nm - Remlik Oct 20, 18:26
wow -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 18:10 4
- heroes spoils - Jovian Oct 20, 18:10 3
  - holy shit. - Mel Profit Oct 20, 18:14 2
    - you know what will be cool - spoils? - Beaker Oct 20, 18:21 1
      - what would be even cooler? (spoils) - Jovian Oct 20, 18:22
Hall needs to find the permabench. -- nm - Samara Oct 20, 18:06
did anyone watch Obama's half hour of air time? wasn't that supposed to be last week? -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:03 2
- It's the night Game 6 of the World Series is to happen. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 20, 18:04 1
  - rays in 5 -- nm - dogbert183 Oct 20, 18:06
"Today is the 2,000th day since the declaration of Mission Accomplished in Iraq" - Keith Olbermann Oct 20, 18:01
"take time to refresh your own being, or you won't have much left to give to others" - CrankYanker Oct 20, 18:01 1
- just press F5 -- nm - marcel Oct 20, 18:08
Heroes! -- nm - Beaker Oct 20, 18:00 2
- did not see that coming -- nm - Beaker Oct 20, 18:10 1
  - you aint shitting. nm - Jovian Oct 20, 18:11
Starting off WWE RAW with Divas is a sure fire way to make me haet your show immedately. -- nm - Qale Oct 20, 17:59 5
- Having not watched the show since Benoit's tragedy, I still strongly suspect you're in the minority. -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:01 4
  - Don't be so sure. I imagine many wrestling fans consider them to a complete waste of time. -- nm - Qale Oct 20, 18:10 2
    - From 420chan's /wooo/ board. - Qale Oct 20, 18:15 1
      - Err, we're sourcing the dregs of the internet now? -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:39
  - I still Tivo it. -- nm - Remlik Oct 20, 18:08
Remlik, with Cho or AH! doing the art, it would be out around Obama's second term ;) -- nm - peglegpete Oct 20, 17:59 2
- i love me some AH! (though not as much as Garanov) -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:02
- HA! -- nm - Remlik Oct 20, 18:01
Obama to not attend campaign events Thurs and Friday to go back to Hawaii to be with ailing grandmother per MSNBC. -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 17:55 4
- just two more weeks, grandma! -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 17:57 3
  - btw, congrats on surviving your stag party! -- nm - CrankYanker Oct 20, 17:59 2
    - the trick is to get all the nastiness out of the way on the night. -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:01 1
      - and without pictures. ;-) -- nm - CrankYanker Oct 20, 18:02
Here's to a happy birthday for Beryllium -- nm - CQ Oct 20, 17:53 2
