It isn't a series until PHX takes one in LA

so it's still not a series

I only saw the last pay, was Dick Bavetta making sure the L*kers got enough free throws down the stretch to stay ahead?

Like that would ever happen. Uh huh

if only the world worked by magic instead of physical laws of reality.

CA: 55 Electoral College votes

Can’t say I blame him.

LOL

Actually, I think you’re on to something. Obama’s a politician. Like any smart lawmaker, he’s making sure he appeals to his base.

I'll never forgive Nixon for proclaiming Texas the national champs over Penn State in 1969. he deserved everything

that happened to him after that.

OT : I'll bet we had similar affection for Nixon back in the day...

I was watching the Wagergate senate hearings so attentively, a Stanford med student living in the house said I should write a book about them.
I remember a bumper sticker “In ’64 we god the bird, in ’68 we got the dick”.
Sheez, even JOHNSON wasn’t liberal enough ? Well, actually Johnson would have been cool, except for one rather significant snafu VIETNAM ! What a disaster ! I SO hate it when our “leadership” goes for an unnecessary war (yes, Iraq included). What a difference such a decision not being screwed up can make. A simple “yes/no” in the right direction… really frustrating/dissappointing/destructive/disgusting/etc..
Ah, for decent leadership.

the leadership does

what the men writing the checks tell them to do

to expect it to be otherwise is to not understand history

and if leadership refuses to play ball, they wind up in somebody’s crosshairs.

Like JFK, who was the president when the first “advisors” were sent into Viet Nam. Unfortunately, trying to abolish the Fed and restore the gold standard was a fatal mistake.

Sometimes, leadership can become too popular for their own good. For example, KP knows how it feels to be told by the secretary that he’ll need to find himself a new seat at the RG

I can only trust that is not true most, or at least all, of the time.

I guess I would put integrety in as a requirement of real “leadership”. A leader says what he believes, and acts accordingly, without fear, regardless of “crosshairs”. Lots of our soldiers do it everyday. We should be able to have a similarly dedicated and true leader. Of course the voters have to do their part. A great leader needs “followers” with enough insight to recognize and enable him.

History has all kinds of leaders, from the most corrupt and destructive to the most committed and wise who were willing to die for what they believed in.

Paranthetically, so you like Kennedy, or blame him for Vietnam ?
I thought the gold standard was ended August 15, 1971, under Nixon, well after Kennedy.

I was born in 1960, so Jack was "before my time"

but I’ve read up a bit on the subject, and (among other things, like Bobby trying to shut down the mob) JFK thought he had gained enough popularity to wrest control of dollar manipulation away from the international banking community.

They tend to frown on that

and as far as Viet Nam goes

that was defense contractors manufacturing and blowing up their widgets (along with American teenagers and the Viet Cong) to stimulate their shareholder’s portfolios. I also think the anti-war protests were an interesting “social experiment” that turned this country on it’s ear.

It makes me wonder what the next “planned” crisis will be, and when it will arrive. (I have 2 teenage sons that I’ve grown fond of)
