‘Family Values’ ReTHUGlican — John McCain is a self-centred womanizer who abandoned his crippled first-wife for his present wife Cindy, a former rodeo beauty queen, for financial reasons.

John McCain returned home after being a PoW in Vietnam, supposedly looking like a skeleton, although the pictures do not show that, to find out his wife Carol had been in a horrible accident four years earlier that required 23 surgeries.She had almost died and had to learn how to walk again, and instead of McCain being grateful his wife was alive, he was "appalled" by her appearance and started a
"As many of you know, Revision3’s servers were brought down over the Memorial Day weekend by a denial of service attack. It’s an all too common occurrence these days. But this one wasn’t your normal cybercrime – there’s a chilling twist at the end. Here’s what happened, and why we’re even more concerned today, after it’s over, than we were on Saturday when it started."[via revision
They say you should never hit a guy with glasses. After watching the intense, climactic fight scene from Crippled Masters, go ahead and add, “never fuck with a handicapped dude” to the list of shouldn’t dos. More brutal than the goateed bruisers from Murderball, this stubby duo work over their full-limbed opponent with the fury of a thousand pint-sized B

I am always amused at what Republican politicians have to say when they are trying to weave and dodge questions about changing their residency to run for public office.
Dee Margo (R-El Paso), who ran an unsuccessful race against State Sen. Elliot Shapleigh (D-El Paso) last year, had earlier said he wasn’t going to challenge State Rep. Pat Haggerty (R-El Paso) in the GOP Primary this year and that he wasn’t going to move.
Now, however, he’s changing his tune, at least on the latter:
Dee Margo, CEO and chairman of JDW Insurance, said today he is looking at building a new, one-level home in the Upper Valley.
Buying a home there soon would put him inside state Rep. Pat Haggerty’s district and make him eligible to challenge Haggerty in the March Republican Primary.

But Margo said he hasn’t bought anything yet. He’s just talking with architects and builders. The reason for the move, he added, has nothing to do with politics.

Many Officials, However, Warn Of Its ResilienceBy Thomas E. Ricks and Karen DeYoungWashington Post Staff WritersMonday, October 15, 2007; A01The U.S. military believes it has dealt devastating and perhaps irreversible blows to al-Qaeda in Iraq in recent months, leading some generals to advocate a declaration of victory over the group, which the Bush administration has long described as the most lethal U.S. adversary in Iraq.But as the White House and its military commanders plan the next phase of the war, other officials have cautioned against taking what they see as a premature step that could create strategic and political difficulties for the United States. Such a declaration could fuel criticism that the Iraq conflict has become a civil war in which U.S. combat forces should not be involved. At the same time, the intelligence community, and some in the military itself, worry about underestimating an enemy that has shown great resilience in the past."I think it would be premature at
So, some of you read this post a while back about my dash refusing to read my memory cards. That got me so pissed off, I wanted to go back to the good old beeper days... What you probably didn't know was that same day I was speaking to someone and got pretty agitated and when I get agitated I talk with my hands. Long story short My poor little AT&T Dash went flying out of my hand like a Frisbee. It had a few scratches here and there but, it was working and I didn't think anything of it.I also didn't want to associate that with the memory card not working. But today I was even more worked up then normal and my phone again went flying out of my hand causing my partner to duck as it slammed into the wall behind him.I laughed... He didn't. He said "You could have taken my damn head off! Take it down a notch man!" I looked at it and said "I bet you my memory card works again..." He said "I bet that whole damned thing is all foxed up." Guess who was right??If you guess that you wouldn'
Kim was visiting Mumbai for the first time. Not many people knew if Kim was his first or last name though there was no denying his Asian origins. He had been sent to evaluate a facility his people had been doing business with for several years. Recently, the facility had begun to exhibit a slowdown in production and he had been sent in an official capacity to determine why that was.
In the last communication from a source within the facility, unofficial of course, there had been some talk of something being crippled. It was an unauthorized channel, more white noise than actual video and it was unclear from the final few images where the man had been reporting from. It appeared that there were a couple of machines in his background but it was really difficult to tell, even with the application of the most advanced image recognition software. Which is why Kim was in the city in person.
Even though they were doing business in the city, it was his first visit and like most foreigners he wa
Having a member of Mogwai in your lineup and making post-rock does admittedly set expectations fairly high. Although not entirely responsible for the genre itself, Mogwai were integral in getting it "out there' and have recorded some of the most important additions to it's canon, and now in 2006 the sound is still going strong.
