It worked when the King started taxing tea.
The conservatives shot and killed a lot of liberal Red coats and created the greatest nation this earth has ever seen.
:toast:
The problem is, now we have a bunch of spoiled children that vote for the old english model... 52.7 % morons that vote against prosperity, vote against America, and elected the Great satan.
Darn that 52.7%
They're obviously standing in the way of all those people who would otherwise pick up their guns and march on Washington DC
Actually, an "activist" is simply someone who steps up and does something to advocate real change in the community, rather than just bitch and whine to their neighbors.
Activists can be conservative, liberal, Republican, Democrat, third party.
The one thing in common is they are "active" in instigating real change. They learned a long time ago that after about the third or fourth time complaining to your friends, no one really gives a shit until you actually do something to stimulate real change.

Hope and change and change and hope, right Barman? Words matter. If we elect a community organizer who doesn't call terrorists terrorists, the world will be a better place. If we just make rich people pay for everything, we can all "steal" more wealth...

So what you're basically trying to tell us is that you yourself CGOLD will be doing absolutely nothing to promote real change about the aspects of our community with which you disagree.
You're just going to be the Town Whiner?
All good. Since I don't agree with a lot of your politics, I'm encouraged by the fact you're not willing to do anything to really move your beliefs forward.

And our message Trounced your message
Which is not surprising since you aren't willing to do anything outside of bitch on a sports handicapping web forum.
All good...I've been pestering you for a couple days now to stand up and take some legit action, so I'll stop now.
It's almost a relief to know you'll do nothing.
BOL on your continued efforts to handicap and profitably wager sports events.

Yeah, you made some real change... being the wire framed glasses female that you are... change and hope...
I've been posting winners, you've been making your 8 dollar bets to tail me, and everybodies happy.
I've been posting winners, I'm hot, and my thread had 1/2 as many viewings today as your month long thread... go figure.
Your politics stink

FROM CGOLD's MLB thread for May 17th
CGOLD offers:
Angels
Weaver is the better starter
The Angels hit .290 vs righties, and .291 on the road vs righties
Rivalry, Angels lost the first 2 of the series
Chone Figgins back
I wish they didn't get Lackey thrown out yesterday... bad blood, I'm pissed.
I don't usually fade Texas, but I think people are catching on to this team and this hitting. Kinsler is an absolute fucking stud, and this game could have it's scoring but I like the Angels to at least win one here.

BARMAN Replies:
Meanwhile, the biggest strength in Texas play over past month is their pitching which is why most folks might be overlooking them most days.

Now far it be from me to pull down a fellow Forum members pants when he's just lost a posted wager, but when he starts claiming that I was along for the ride when he got crushed is just plain sillyness.
quite possibly the most uninformed post ever here at theRx.
being such a big cheerleader leads one to become out of touch.
never mind voting history, one sure know better just from political dialogue, policy, debate & principle. For example, one party espouses more individual responsibility while another believes in government solutions. Where do you think welfare falls?

If anything conclusion can be reached from income demographics, it is that the poorest people in the country always always always & always vote democratic and always do so by a very very very wide margin.
Sweetpea, if you care to disagree, please provide something other that "what you see". As if you know how they vote anyways.
LOL

Texas is a dominant hitting team, I know, as I said I am a texas backer. Millwood/Padilla are alright but the team has WEAK pitching overall.
Yes Texas won yesterday, so what.
You never even said you bet on them... you didn't say anything about any other picks but then had this... " I dunno, Texas might lose today".
THEN AFTER THE FACT...
OH MY GOD
OH MY GOD
OH MY GOD
I TOLD YOU TEXAS WAS GOING TO LOSE!!!!
I TOLD YOU SO
I'M A BETTER CAPPER
I'M A BETTER CAPPER
Look Barman, I never opened your MLB thread ( and many people over the course of a month didn't eitehr).
I had 1/2 as many people read mine in 1 freaking day because I am hot, and even your ass was reading and tailing.
If the best handicapper in the world made 10 picks, 9 eventually end up winners, but on the 1 I said " I dunno, the Yankees might win" and they win, that doesn't mean shit. You still have egg on your face.
So be happy, you found some C-Gold and I'm money.
End Welfare for Republicans
Democratic strategist Paul Begala, in a piece for CNN, offers a suggestion that if taken to its logical conclusion might actually save the American economy: We should stop giving away money to the people–generally Republicans–who say we should stop giving away money.
Begala specifically addresses Mark Sanford, a vocal critic of the economic stimulus plan despite the fact that he is the governor South Carolina, a state that has been “a ward of the federal goverment” probably since slavery ended there. The nonprofit Tax Foundation estimates that South Carolina takes in $1.35 for every dollar it pays in federal taxes. And though we might quibble about the exact numbers, there is no doubt that the states that are most heavily Republican tend to suck in money–or, as some conservatives might term it, to engage in theft–from more progressive states that pay more in federal taxes than they get back.
Besides South Carolina, the welfare queens include the red or usually red states of Alaska (what, you let Sarah Palin convince you that the oil up there made that state self-reliant–ha!), Arizona (maybe John McCain should pay more taxes on his houses), Alabama, Arkansas, both Dakotas, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyoming.
(There arent many democrats there in those states Willie)
There also are a few Democratic states on the list, but then Democrats almost all favored the stimulus plan. It is true that the numbers are a few years old, so some of those states may now be paying their own way–but with the way the economy has slammed the states, it’s more likely that they’ve become bigger bums than they were before. On the other hand, a minority of states–including Barack Obama’s Illinois, Joe Biden’s Delaware, New York and California–are subsidizing those conservative deadbeats elsewhere.
Since conservative critics think we should stop spending, the solution is obvious: Let’s stop giving them our money. The bank bailout was an obvious mistake, since most bankers are Republicans. But we should also stop giving subsidies to farmers, most of whom seem to be welfare-opposing conservatives. And it should be safe to assume that anyone who voted for Republican (or for Democrats who oppose the stimulus bill) automatically wants to forgo any stimulus benefits.
Wow, I’m feeling richer already. Of course I live in Washington, one of those states that’s been helping out most of the rest of you for a long time. Unfortunately, as Begala suggests about Sanford, it’s tough to wean a conservative off of welfare, ”because for all his rhetoric about hating federal spending, he can’t wait to get his hands on our money.”
