  1. 20o8 election

    while some what true, I still don't see him running, he had his best chance in '96 (lead an exit poll over Clinton 50-38) and '00 and didn't take it then...I doubt after the disillusionment over his role with Iraq he'd really want to jump in.
  2. 20o8 election

    how is that any different than the dumb things Obama said, like "Visiting all 57 states", "10,000 people dying in KS tornado" etc? Not sure what you mean about him coming across as a "Pokemon trainer". He's smart and articulate, he did make the mistake of not brushing up on more foreign issues...
  3. 20o8 election

    Herman Cain didn't come off as a bufoon, and was the leading candidate till the whole contrived sex scandal was pushed hard by the media over a week. Tell you the truth, in 2008 there weren't many minority candidates at the national level that I could easily throw their hat in the ring...
  4. WI:Marijuana never got prohibited?

    Just think of this, Hemp was predicted to become the first Billion dollar crop in the US by the USDA in the '20's (I believe). Really all it would feasibly take is for farmers to recognize the commercial benefits of hemp growing a few years sooner and Hearst and Anslinger "war on cannabis"...
  5. 20o8 election

    Bobby Jindal could have run in 2008, he was US Rep from LA's 1st district then and could have thrown his hat in the ring for the Presidency instead of Gov. I mean, he's not black he's Indian, still not a "white" candidate
  6. WI: MCCAIN-PALIN victory in 2008?

    He was a Community Organizer in Chicago, used his Chicago connections to get into the State Senate (where the only thing he voted on was abortion and "present") and used those same connections to get to the US Senate (where he voted pretty much the same, and railed against many of the things...
  7. WI: MCCAIN-PALIN victory in 2008?

    We wouldn't have pulled completely out of Iraq like we have done. The reason we did was because the Obama administration would not negotiate with the Iraqi's about American Solider's being punished for crimes (many really dumb ones). With McCain in office, we'd have some pretty significant...
  8. Dresden Germany

    There really was no reason for Dresden to be bombed. There were hundreds of POW's there as well, which just shows that either the Allies' spys were horribly wrong or there really was something so bad there that even 60 years later there is no real "official" reason for the bombing other than...
  9. Glen's Star Wars Prequels

    NP, I haven't read all the way through the script (except the rewrites) but it's been fun to help and would SOO love to see them as a movie I was thinking a troop transport, the ones breaking into the shipyard being on a bigger ship. not sure...just something along the lines of "Get...
  10. Glen's Star Wars Prequels

    First, the rewrite was done well. My only concern is really the ships attack the shipyard being fighters that he destroys, even if they are on a suicide run, just seems out of place. Maybe have either a small freighter or small corvette size ship going after it, and maybe make sure to have what...
  11. Glen's Star Wars Prequels

    it looks great so far!!
  12. Glen's Star Wars Prequels

    hey now, I did say I drink it myself :p
  13. Glen's Star Wars Prequels

    my bad man, sorry LOL :D
  14. Glen's Star Wars Prequels

    :D no prob If not my bad, the "curling up with tea" seems more like a womany thing (not that I don't enjoy some tea) again, np, just seemed kinda bland, particularly for Star Wars. For any other movie, it would work and be ok, just not Star Wars-ee enough. Regardless of how bad Lucas...
  15. Glen's Star Wars Prequels

    Thanks! It came to me as I was reading through Cole's response, I did agree with her that it felt a little "less than Star Wars-esq" at the beginning. The overall seen is fine, just the setting didn't really seem to fit, plus Panaka's semi-reprimand was just "eh" without some real reason for it...
  16. Glen's Star Wars Prequels

    maybe as a suggestion instead of having a race, have it be a pitched battle over some, seemingly, important planet (maybe a big ship yard such as Sienar Fleet Systems or even Incom). In this case you could have it play out into the mole theory as it's a rouse to get the Republic away from...
  17. Glen's Star Wars Prequels

    yes, which at the time that Glen is doing is movie is one of the few major post-ROTJ EU books and flushed out much of the Universe
  18. Glen's Star Wars Prequels

    Just to comment on the Clones. In cannon prior to the OTL prequels Clones had this crazy "buzz" in the force, something that is there...but not quite, though the clone can use the force. The Jedi did try cloning centuries prior to the movies
  19. McCain/Pawlenty 2008 => Romney/Palin 2012?

    you aren't the only conservative here :D
  20. McCain/Pawlenty 2008 => Romney/Palin 2012?

    The boost that Palin gave McCain wasn't a brain fart. McCain's loss had more to do with his inability to attack Obama and use Obama's stances (or lack there of in both IL Senate and US Senate) against him, as he was trying to go the "gentleman" route. I do agree that Palin may not be chosen...
