For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: Hillary wants to garnish wages of those that don't have health care insurance:
Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton said Sunday she might be willing to garnish the wages of workers who refuse to buy health insurance to achieve coverage for all Americans...Clinton said such measures would apply only to workers who can afford health coverage but refuse to buy it, which puts undue pressure on hospitals and emergency rooms. With her proposals for subsidies, she said, "it will be affordable for everyone."
So, government will now dictate what people HAVE to buy? Where does this end? Will Americans really get on this socialism express train, or fight against this obvious loss of freedom?
Talking point two: feel free to discuss yesterday's shocking win by the Giants!

Boston Globe's Jumps the Gun

A classic "Dewey Defeats Truman" moment, if there ever was one.
Congratulations to the Giants. I still despise you, but that was one heck of a game!

Not to nitpick too much,
February 4, 2008 - 13:44 ET by Roger the ShrubberNot to nitpick too much, but that wasn't the NFL, it was the AAFC. Should we start placing USFL, CFL, AFL, XFL records on the same level as the NFL?
I looked up the AAFC to make sure I had my facts straight, and also saw this little snippet of socialism:
Although 1947 had been a successful season for the AAFC in many respects, the league still lost money. In 1948, attendance in both leagues declined, and negotiations to end the war became serious. One factor affecting AAFC attendance was the gap between the league’s best and worst teams. To counter this, Commissioner Ingram attempted to get the strongest teams to distribute some players to the weakest. He was modestly successful: the Browns sent rookie quarterback Y. A. Tittle to the Colts, who enjoyed their first good season, and the Yankees were generous enough to fall into mediocrity. However, 1948 featured extremes despite Ingram’s efforts.
The AAFC would merge with the NFL in 1949. Interesting reading, actually, if you area football-o-phile like me.
Sounds like a Pittsburgh point of view
February 4, 2008 - 14:14 ET by IgnatzJFahrquarThe USFL, CFL, AFL (Arena Football, I presume) and XFL (shakes head and remembers "He Hate Me" - Rod Smart) weren't absorbed by the NFL. The AAFC was.
Also, looking at the NFL Pro Football HOF website, there are 7 Browns players listed with the AAFC inception year of 1946 in their years of service. So, the HOF is recognizing those "pre NFL" years but not the undefeated season? A bit of a double standard.
Funny to see that there were New York Yankees and Brooklyn Dodgers Football teams.
"All generalizations are false, including this one.” Mark Twain
If you look at Y.A. Tittle,
February 4, 2008 - 14:46 ET by Roger the ShrubberIf you look at Y.A. Tittle, the HOF lists his years of service in the AAFC, but not the statistics for his AAFC years. If you look at Steve Young's statistics, or Warren Moon's, their stats from the USFL and CFL are not listed. Speaking of the Browns, if you look at Lou Groza's career stats, his AAFC days are not included.
On the other hand, a player like Lance Alworth, who played int he American Football League for the Chargers, DOES have his AFL stats included. Same with Namath.
To me, I take it that, to the NFL, the AFL counts, and the AAFC does not.
And yes, I am a biased heathen scumbag Steelers fan :p

Ernie Pyle Photo
February 4, 2008 - 12:00 ET by BDToday Foxnews has a coverstory on their webpage regarding the recent discovery of the death photo of outstanding WWII journlist Ernie Pyle.
Today Ernie would be considered an Enbedded journalist due to his policy of finding an infantry company on the line to live with for extended periods of time, taking on all of the hardships the doggies of those units.
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,327974,00.html
This Leads me to ask, who in the MSM is following in the footsteps of Ernie Pyle? I cannot think of anyone who even comes close.
Micheal Yon fits the bill in nearly all regards but one, he does his work on his own dime and publishes what he can as a freelance.
Shouldn't the MSM feel shame for their failure to find a modern Day Ernie Pyle?
Thanks for posting this,
February 4, 2008 - 13:05 ET by Hero SquadThanks for posting this, first for the obvious reason, because journalists like Ernie Pyle should be remembered and emulated; but second, because it inspired me to take a look for something else.
My grandfather was a WWII photographer in the China, Burma, India theater. This past weekend I was visiting my Grandmother, and she shared a scrapbook of some of his photos with me... nearly all of which were taken while he was stateside. Unfortunately, most of his work was destroyed in the Agnes flood of '72 (when I was 3), so I wasn't able to see most of his wartime photos; only heard about them.
So I did a search on Google this morning, and found one of his photos from Burma. Wish there were more, but this one was pretty cool. May have to order and frame it as a gift for Grandma (although her 90th birthday was two weeks ago).
So... thanks BD!

Hillary Stealing My Wages
February 4, 2008 - 12:11 ET by GothampcCan someone tell me what the difference is between Hillary's plan to steal my wages for healthcare and what Mitt did in MA?
If his name hadn't been on the article below, I'd think Hillary wrote it.
http://www.opinionjournal.com/editorial/feature.html?id=110008213
"Every uninsured citizen in
February 4, 2008 - 12:13 ET by Hermano"Every uninsured citizen in Massachusetts will soon have affordable health insurance and the costs of health care will be reduced. And we will need no new taxes, no employer mandate and no government takeover to make this happen."
Here is why. No added taxes. Hillary's plan is very similar to Ohio's proposed plan which will add over $3000 ($50B/year) to each person's tax burden. In other words, a family of four would cost an additional $12,000. Of course, Hillary is saying hers will only cost $110B/year or $366 per person. Romney's plan did not add any cost to the taxpayer and did not allow for additional government control.

That means JAIL FOR HEALTH CARE. That means making CRIMINALS OF US CITIZENS.
as far as the Giants winning.............
It is bogus or uniformed of people to be shocked that the Giants won. I posted on Newsbusters from at least the 10th week on how to beat New England. Apparently the NFL reads Newsbusters as the next week New Englad was shut down on offense. Each team though let New England win.
New England is not that good of team. Any quarterback when ALLOWED to stand in the pocket can be a great quarterback. When the Jags blitzed Brady in the 4th quarter when it was too late, Brady threw dropped passes.
Tom Coughlin last night repeated the very advice I posted here on how to defeat New England.
As a post script: Whether one cares to believe it or not, God has his eyes on allot of people in this world and He saw how unfairly Eli Manning was treated, Tom Coughlin and saw Plexico Burris praying.
Now behold Tom Brady, fornicating and fathering a bastard, the Pats cheating and the con game of Randy Moss who just got in legal trouble again for assaulting a woman in Florida like his past history of abusing women.
Moss stated years ago HE WAS AND CULPEPPER WERE TOO TALENTED NOT TO WIN A SUPER BOWL..........no God ever mentioned in it as God wins all battles and chooses victors.
Eli had angels helping him escape "The Sack" to make "The Throw". agtG
What is more fitting than God promoting the ideals of sportsmanship and prayer, than Randy Moss looking like in blasphemy that he was parting the waters and "had won it".
What is a bigger recompense.........going 18 wins and loosing the big one......or simply fading away at Oakland for Moss.
I know God worked it out right and at least half the teams in the NFL can beat the Pats weekly if they simply would make a game plan like the Giants ran it.
Oh and I predicted the Giants winning by 24...........they would have if the Giants had scored in the first half as they should of. I can not help it if stupid play calls lock a team out at the 20.
