Speaking of annoying sounds, why does A&M’s bullshite, repetitive, fake military band keep getting to play on the field?

frick them, their weird whoops, and their drill.
quote:

Being part of an LSU team where a player won LSU's third Heisman and beat Saban the GOAT. I know a lot of people dont like BK but when it’s all said and done he will go down as a very good coach. Obviously it didnt work out here so well. But he was never as bad as people made him out to be.

Nah. BK will be an afterthought sooner than later.

His years were mediocre and we accomplished nothing during his tenure. Daniels’ Heisman is its own thing.
quote:

Attorneys who leave at 5 are not employed very long.

Speak for yourself.

“Butts in seats” law firms are the worst. Tasks complete and billables met? Who gives a shite when or where it happens outside of client meetings, depositions, and court proceedings?

There’s a reason all your associates leave once they’re trained enough to be marketable elsewhere.

UPS

Why the frick would UPS ever be involved in something like this?
quote:

Imagine what the guys who served at sea in WWII would think. Hell, these people weren’t even under fire.

Imagine thinking there wasn’t plenty of this type of thing in WW2. And honestly on all sides in any conflict that’s ever been fought.
quote:

It is only that way because they CHOOSE to make it that way. There are ways to get this done.

Want to end the 60 vote threshold for cloture? Fine, go ahead.

Enjoy what the Democrats do with that starting next January.

The reasonable thing to do is simply govern and pass consensus legislation but everyone on both sides decided after 9/11 that we just weren’t going to do that anymore. Attaching poison pills so you can campaign against the other side for not passing it is preferred—both in Congress and on this site.
quote:

The old Republican playbook. Get back in power and do NOTHING with it.

When will people learn that, outside of executive appointments, having a majority the Senate but less than 60 seats is not “in power” and able to pass a broad partisan program.

It’s functionally a coalition government.
quote:

So a lessee cannot eject an invitee? How about a hotel room? I let somone in I can't make them leave? There Is No Property Right To A Press Pass

He’s not a lessee, he has no unilateral authority over who works in an office building that’s connected to the ground level of an adjoining building that he gets to sleep on the top floor of.

It’s not about property rights as you’re trying to pretend that it is.
quote:

It is amazing how utterly retarded the Judiciary has become

There was never any scenario where this wasn’t the obvious outcome.

People try telling you all this every time POTUS does something stupid. You never listen and then it’s the judges fault.
quote:

If I invite someone into my home and then decide they have to leave because I don't want them there, I don't have to give them "due process." They are their at my invitation which is subject to recall at my whim. To state otherwise is to say they have a vested right to be in my house once I let them in.

It isn’t his house.
Easily LSU on here—it’s fundamentally an LSU site, at least initially so there’s a much larger swath of the fanbase here than other schools.
quote:

He actually did have the votes. Even Susan Collin’s was going to vote yes at some point.

He didn’t have 60 votes, or the 51 required to kill the filibuster.

So no—did not and does not have the votes. Even if every GOP senator supports SAVE on the merits, there aren’t 51 of them willing to get to that vote by killing the filibuster.
quote:

Well we don't know that do we? It hasn't been put to a vote.

No parliamentarian in any legislative body in the democratic world purposefully puts up meaningful legislation that they don’t have the votes to pass.

Doing so would only hurt the GOP.
quote:

gasoline is trading in the same price range for 20 years, i'm sorry that you can't afford it now.

Don’t be stupid. No, gasoline has not been this expensive for 20 years. Diesel in particular.
quote:

There is a distinction between states rights for state prisons and fed rights for fed prisons.

Not a meaningful one, or in the manner you’re describing.

Besides, the plaintiffs expressly made an 8th Amendment claim. Squarely within the jurisdiction of the federal courts.
quote:

and how/why does a federal judge have any authority over anything within the state of Texas specifically its prison system?

Federal constitutional claims are litigated in federal court.
Why? Tons of products have kosher and halal logos on them.

I don’t understand this particular selective outrage.
