  1. That's exactly what I was just thinking. Perhaps NISD should have proposed a smaller bond that just would have replaced the elementary schools. Start small and just take it one thing at a time.
  2. History and everyday events tells us that most individuals are selected based on their popularity or who they know. Or better known as the good ole boy system. I think the timing was just right for a person like Obama to come in and win (obviously). What I didn't like was the hatred that came out towards the man. And I just think that he had a very effective, successful marketing strategy.
  3. There was actually some talk of that at the school. The district decided to keep it at the Montagne Center because, apparently, at some point in the past, graduation has had to be postponed due to the weather. Take it for what it's worth, it is hearsay, but, as much as I hate the loss of that tradition, it seems like a reasonable move.
  4. And I answered that question. There were also others talking about which team would improve the most, so I answered that question as well.
  5. Her experience is a Governor for 2 years and a Mayor for 10 years. Name me some of those bright, articulate, accomplished GOP women who have been doing big things in government and in the business world for years. You have NOTHING to support that argument. : : Partial List of Republican Women More Qualified to be President Than Sarah Palin posted by Gatemouth Fri, 08/29/2008 - 11:04pm Senators: Lisa Murkowski, Alaska(?!?); Olympia Snowe, Maine; Susan Collins, Maine; Elizabeth Dole North Carolina; Kay Bailey Hutchison, Texas Governors: Oline Walker, Utah; Linda Lingle, Hawaii, M. Jodi Rell, Connecticut Members of the House: Ileana Ros-Lehtinen Florida; Deborah Pryce, Ohio; Barbara Cubin, Wyoming; Sue Myrick North Carolina; Jo Ann Emerson, Missouri; Kay Granger, Texas; Mary Bono, California; Heather Wilson , New Mexico; Judith Borg Biggert , Illinois; Shelley Moore Capito, West Virginia; Marsha Blackburn, Tennessee; Ginny Brown-Waite, Florida; Candice Miller, Michigan; Marilyn Musgrave, Colorado; Thelma Drake, Virginia; Virginia Foxx, North Carolina; Cathy McMorris Rodgers, West Virginia; Jean Schmidt, Ohio Cabinet: Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of State; Elaine Chao, Secretary of Labor; Margaret Spellings, Secretary of Education; Mary Peters, Secretary of Transportation; Susan Schwab, US Special Trade Representative Judging by the way they've been voting recently, Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins probably wouldn't have taken it and might not have been that committed if they had taken it. Kay Bailey Hutchison, although a very good candidate, is getting up in age herself, and would have added a card to the Obama Campaign's "youth and vigor" strategy. Besides, she's determined to run for governor. I doubt she would have accepted the invitation, anyways. Condoleezza Rice would have been the best pick, in my opinion, but the McCain Campaign was trying to set itself apart from the Bush administration, and she was in President Bush's cabinet, which could invalidate all of the women pointed out that were involved with the Bush administration. Then again, Condoleezza Rice would have made a great Presidential candidate, in my opinion. Kay Granger would have been a good pick, but I think that McCain was also trying to set himself apart from Congress in addition to the Bush administration. All of these points narrows it down to the four GOP female governors (your three plus Sarah Palin). Of these four, Sarah Palin was the youngest, and McCain was trying to add a "youth and vigor" edge to his campaign to counter the one the Obama Campaign had. Seems to me like Sarah Palin was the best choice, given the circumstances. Yep, she brought all the Goobers out of the beer joints And President Obama brought all of society's freeloaders out of their Section 8 housing. If we want to get into those kind of comments, we can go round and round. All I did was point out the strategy behind Senator McCain's VP pick. History and everyday events tells us that most individuals are selected based on their popularity or who they know. Or better known as the good ole boy system. And you think this was different with President Obama how?

  7. Yes, Presidential elections are held every four years, but, you see, over here at PN-G, they also teach us that Congress holds elections every two years because Senators serve 6-year terms and Representatives serve 2-year terms. Those are called "Midterm" Elections.
  8. And I am just as excited about it as anyone else, but I still want to enjoy my summer. The spring game will do for now.
  9. And I bet you think Palin could run the country, don't you? As a matter of fact, I do. After all, she did run a state. But that's beside the point. Back to the point, Joe the Plumber left because he was being harassed by overbearing government, something that neither he nor I support. At the head of that government, Obama supporter Ted Strickland, Barack Obama, and, ultimately, the Democratic Party.
  10. Ohio Governor Ted Strickland ordered an investigation, through the Ohio Department of Commerce, of Samuel Wurzelbacher during the election. Mr. Wurzelbacher woke up one morning to find people digging through his trash for absolutely no reason. If that was during the election, I can't imagine what this man has had to deal with since the election. If this is true, he probably renounced his position within the GOP just to stop the harrassment. We also don't know how much business he lost from avid Obama supporters.
  11. You omitted one. Just thought I'd point it out. Can't forget us Indians.
  12. Don't confuse us with facts? Now, dawgnut, don't make me bring y'all's bond discussion into this.
  13. Move Vidor/Lumberton up one, switch PN-G and Ozen, and there's my prediction.
  14. he also went to state prison for dealing crack.... a felony... Would you defend a Klansman like you're defending TurdX? They are one and the same. See, this is one of the major differences in you and me. I'm willing to accept a *change* in a man's life such as George Wallace the obvious racist into George the human being. Whereas, you can accept X's old life as a drug dealer. Once you are able to move on from this old news, then maybe we can start discussing his politics more in detail. We might find that you and I aren't that far apart in agreement. But I won't hold my breath No, once again you are totally wrong. I am totally willilng to accept a change in a person's life. However, TurdX hasn't changed. Just two days ago he vowed to tear Lumberton to the ground. Do you condone that? You didn't answer my question either. Would you today defend the head of the KKK? TurdX is a different side of the same coin as the KKK. QX is not going to tear or burn down down Lumberton. Maybe in a figurtive way such as his burning words of hate towards the town. Would I defend the head of the KKK? Sir, in my lifetime I have ate and conversed with more racist than you ever will in your lifetime. How many have you dined with? So, you have been talking with the "New" Black Panthers?
  15. It's unfortunate, but many of today's so-called "civil rights activists" do it all the time. Sorry, but I have to respectfully disagree. Perhaps, many of today's public, in-your-face "civil rights activists" do it all of the time, but there are more who tackle civil rights violation in respectable ways on both sides (white and black). They just don't require T.V., radio, or newspaper time so that people will know who they are. I could see the taxation thing in the past (probably not so long ago), but not now. Our forefathers, while very insightful, were also very weak in that they couldn't or didn't set up the constitution to truly ensure that all men were created equal because that's how many of the select families made their money...off of the blood, sweat, tears and hardships, and not only of black people, but white people too. Far fewer than like 10% were slaveowners. In November, 2008, our Constitution truly came to the point that it should have been when it was initiated. Regardless of anyone's opinion on the outcome, it was representation that finally the majority of Americans were past something that should have never have been allowed to happen. Martin Luther King, Jr. was on target with how he addressed issues that he disagreed with. Civil disobedience. Gandhi did it and it works because it does the same thing as when these clowns (all of them) get in front of a camera...it brought light to the issues. This is a great country, but it is also a country that took a long time to truly represent the very document and idealogy that it was founded on. We are there now and while I respect everyone's opinion because that is their right...I don't agree with anything that calls for any type of violence or bullying. Our forefathers didn't free the slaves in the constitution because the southern states told them that they wouldn't ratify it and then there never would have been a constitution at all. It had nothing to do with powerful families, just racist states. The U.S. Constitution didn't change when President Obama was elected. I agree that the election of our first black President was a milestone for minorities, but it didn't change the constitution and it certainly did not make it any more just or valid. Elections don't do that, amendments do. While the election may have proven that the majority of caucasian Americans are over the race issue, it did not prove that the the majority of the country as a whole is over the race issue. We have to consider the possibility that many minorities voted for Barack Obama solely because he is black, just as many people voted for John McCain solely because he is white. As sad as it is, I don't think that any of the races in America will completely come to terms with the race issue in any of our lifetimes. I could be wrong, but I just don't see it happening.
  16. Which team will show the most improvement from last year? Ozen or PN-G. I don't think LC-M is really going to get underway for a few years, and Central doesn't really need to improve. Look how far they went in the playoffs last year, and they replaced their HC with someone on their staff. Central won't improve much, but they will be a good team. Which of these four will come out on top? Central or PN-G, and, as much as I hate to say it, I'm leaning towards Central. They had a great team last year, whereas PN-G had a terrible season. Now, does PN-G have the talent to pull it off? Yes. It's just a matter of how quickly we can adapt to the new coaching style. You never know, though. We could do what Mr. Mosley says Nederland did and come on real strong. Those West Texas coaches have brought things to a whole new level for our players, that's a fact, and I'm looking forward to a greatly improved, district-winning PN-G by the end of Coach Faircloth's second season.
  17. I think we're going to roll right over Barber's Hill, so it'll be either Texas City or Crosby. I'm going to go with Texas City. I think they would have obliterated us if we had played them last year (thanks alot, Ike), but, with the new system and the new coaches, I think we will stand a better chance this year. Crosby is going to be a good game, though.
  18. Probably couldn't get a rental in Lumberton. People are nervous there already. Bluedove you seem like a educated person. That you made your own destiny and provide for your family like a lot of us have. Am I somewhat correct? QX is exactly what is wrong with this country and I mean all races. Not because he is black. I can't stand the kkk or white supremacist. This guy is wealthy because he is a good saleman nothing more. He does not care about the black people, only their donations. He goes to lumberton, next thing you know he is selling his story to a tabloid. It is all about money my friend and he knows how to manipulate the system and the people especially his own race. As far as Lumberton being nervous. I don't think so. QX is not a pimple on MLK butt. MLK fought for the people. QX is about QX. Why do you have to qualify that you hate the KKK or similar groups? If you or anyone else told me you were a member of the KKK, I would still hold a conversation with you. I would just tell you "see you later" while you go to your meeting." But you have a right to your opinions and I respect it. As far as QX, I understand why they are doing this and I have to admit he is doing a good job at what he does. He has us tweaking the issues of race which is good to do sometimes. Do I agree with him about burning Lumberton? No! Do I think he will? No! In fact, I think his words were for effect only. He's doing a good job. Many of us are talking about the drama unfolding in Hardin County right now. But we need to stay focused and remember why all of this is taking place. Let us hope that justice didnot go astray as it has in so many other situations. I have a question dove, so is it a done deal already, if nothing happens then its justice has gone a stray, or if they find no wrong doing, this will not be an issue. In all fairness I do think that if there was any wrong doing, I and others know that justice wil be served. But again what if there was no wrong doing, then what. Then, Quanell X tears down the city of Lumberton because "justice wasn't served."
  19. It's unfortunate, but many of today's so-called "civil rights activists" do it all the time.
  20. dawgnut, have you been at those rallies in Lumberton? ;D

Yeah, he's doing a great job alright, if his job is to accuse police officers of wrong-doing based on nothing more than a whim with absolutely no evidence to support it, and then threaten to tear down the city those officers serve when things don't go his way.
  22. It's as fast as the can read. Read? We don't read the music to Cherokee every time we play it. We are required to memorize it and play it off to the band directors from memory at the beginning of every year. There's no reading involved. You shouldn't pay attention to anything that someone from Nerderland says. Oh, he's from Nerdland? I didn't know that. Let me rephrase my statement, then. No read Indian song all time. Learn it well for purple people. ;D
