Remember, it was Obama who called out the US Supreme court during the State of the Union. Bad enough for a Governor to do what she did, but a President during a State of the Union  ?!?!?!

If you wanted to get treated with respect, you need to treat others with respect, I don't give a damn who you are.

You cannot point to one thing I’ve said that is racist, unless you dishonestly distort , put a negative spin on it or lie. All of which you have done. Nothing but false, baseless accusations proving your total worthlessness, and zero creditability.

Now, not so much.  In fact, I believe the Giants should be a slight favorite because I like the match-up of Eli vs. the Pats' D better than Brady's chances against the Giants' D.  This is probably the only thing Followme and I agree on, at least on the political front.  I do enjoy his other posts, though, and his family of characters, which I enjoy mimic-ing with tribute aliases, such as EliFollowmeManning.

MSHSEX1116 reads

I'm rooting for the Giants. They will be hard pressed to repeat their surprise win over the Patriots though. Brady hasn't forgotten what happened when the last met in the SuperBowl. In fact, I think he wants to grind the Giants into the dirt. I know Bellichick does.

But the key element to the game is the Pats defense.  It's the only weak unit on either side.  The extent to which Eli can exploit it is the key.  We know the Pats will score some against even a defense as good as the Giants.  But remember how hard a time Brady had with the Ravens' D.  The Giants D is at least as good, and Brady will be working with a gimpy Gronkowski.  I pick the Giants, but it could be close.

MSHSEX4437 reads

I agree with all your points. If Eli plays like he did against the 49ers in the 2nd half, the Patriots will win handily. Eli has to bring his A game for all 4 quarters to take advantage of the Patriots defense.

had a little bit to do with the excellent 49er defense.  No one has compared the Pats' defense to them.  Also, I do believe Eli still managed a touchdown pass in the second half and ran a drive that led to the game-winning field goal.  Now compare that to Brady against the Ravens: two interceptions and two others that were cancelled out by defensive penalties.  Bottom line:  both Eli and Brady played against two stellar defenses.  Brady threw four pics, Eli threw none.  Brady only won because the Ravens' kicker blew a chip shot.  Eli won because he directed a winning drive.  On that day, at least, no contest.

MSHSEX2661 reads

Brady certainly played the worse between he and Eli in their last games, as evidenced by the game that the Ravens could and should have won (I've seen refs call touchdowns for receivers that caught the ball and spiked it in the endzone in one smooth move). But that was just over 1 game. Brady is still the better of the 2 QBs by far.

Plus, Brady is a lot more motivated by revenge to beat the Giants than Eli is to beat the Pats (since Eli won in their last SuperBowl matchup).

It'll either be a close great game or a blowout with the game over by halftime (in favor of the Patriots).

Brady is more motivated than Eli???  That's just silly.  I'd say they are equally motivated.  It's the freakin' Super Bowl.  If you can't get motivated you don't belong there.  I'll concede that, at this point, you have to rank Brady over Eli, but that's not the point.  They aren't going to be playing each other.  They are going to be playing against the other guy's defense.  And that is my entire point.  I'll take Eli over the Pat's D any day compared to Brady over the Giants' D.

MSHSEX2061 reads

Revenge is a powerful motivator. I assure you that Brady will do everything in his power to not let Eli steal another SuperBowl win away from him.

Another point is that Bellichick is a much superior coach to Coughlin. I'll give credit to Coughlin for finding a way to avoid getting fired after all these years.

Just another reason why the Federal Government and the State Government should keep their conflicts and discussions to a minimum.

And, in this case, not only is Gov. Brewer fighting an uphill battle but she is also fighting sexism and the fact that a lot of people have little or no respect for women in power positions such as hers.

Just like Hillary Clinton or Nancy Pelosi, any man that doesn't agree with her automatically labels her as a bitch.

And that is a battle that will absolutely never end.

Her calling out the President in front of press as he made he stop in Arizona was just another stupid thing Brewer has done.

Obama showed a lot of class by after briefly talking to the politians who greeted him at the plane he went over to the group at the airport and spent MORE time with them.  

He signed autographs, took pictures and was just overall a nice guy.

Thank you BigPapa. That's it. I still can't fathom how she got elected Governor. She must have done something that's endeared her to the citizens of AZ.

general well being of matters in the state of Arizona.

Just because you may think she is an idiot -- which is likely magnified due to the fact that you probably consider many women to be weaker than other candidates -- doesn't mean that the people of Arizona don't think she is a good Governor.

I've never lived in Arizona, have only seen Gov.Brewer on TV a few times and have no opinion one way or another about her.  But, since I don't live there, it really doesn't pertain to me.  That is the beauty of having 50 different states in our union.  To each his or her own.

MSHSEX1072 reads

No, I don't think women are weaker than their male counterparts when it comes to politics. I think Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, the CA congresswomen, etc. are all well versed in the issues and formidable politicians.

I do think that Brewer is an idiot and a political hack. I'm not convinced that she places the welfare of AZ citizens over her own, but what matters is that she's fooled the voters into thinking that she does.

Just to prove that I'm not singling out Brewer, I feel the same about Nikki Haley, the first female governor of SC. The difference there though is that Nikki had to win in a run-off election, since no candidate had a clear majority of the votes in the first election. Also, Nikki's popularity is now hovering around 35% of registered voters.

Looks like the citizens of SC were smart enough to catch on to the fact that Nikki is a political hack and more interested in her own well-being than that of the citizens of her state.

When a politician appears to be respected by other politicians, the truth is that they are despised in private. Such is the case with Nikki. I've got friends who are members of the SC state assembly so I'm hearing this straight from the horses' mouth so to speak. Nikki will not be elected for a second term. If Romney wins the White House, the smart money is that she will not seek re-election and will beg Romney for a seat at the national table (Undersecretary for something or another).

I forgot to add that one of the things (among many) that SC legislators don't like about Nikki is her lack of legal education and training (she's an accountant by trade, not a lawyer). Her claim to fame before she was elected as a SC state representative was she served as an accountant for her mother's million dollar clothing business and a member of the local Chamber of Commerce.

Then after she became a SC state rep, the former disgraced SC Governor Mark Sanford (the one who had an affair with a South American girl) took her under his wing (Sanford has a thing for tall, dark haired women). The rest, as they say, is history.

your arguement is unrealist.

I am a native of Phoenix, a woman and I think she is a idiot.  She first got the job as Governor when Napalatono resigned to go work in Washington as she was Secretary of State.  Because of that when the election came around people didn't really want to shake things up any more and elected her in.  But trust me she is an idiot!

After the election he will probably be replaced. A move now would be too disruptive in financial and political circles. He would be free to air the dirty laundry. As long as he is at Treasury he has to keep his mouth shut.

Go back and think how that all came about. Geitner was nominated for the job before the vetting was done. Then the IRS came up with oops, your taxes are wrong, you didn't pay this tax.

Oh, well I will pay. And he payed with no late fees, no fines or interest.

I get audited 4 out of 7 years. If I'm wrong it's late fees, interest, fines and the damn tax. I now overpay a few thousand dollars on purpose and then re-file an amended return which trips an audit. I usually get most or all my overpayment back. However; no late fees, interest or fines.

RHIP = Rank Hath Its Privleges.

If one isn't also a high ranking official or politician like Geitner, then one shouldn't expect to be treated the same when it comes to "suffering the consequences" of one's actions.

"Tell me her daughter, is it possible to have such a non attractive daughter."

Why drag her daughter in your dislike of Hillary.

 Chelsea is not unattractive in my opinion .

 No matter what anyone says about Hillary , she is one tough cookie .

You useless, inconsiderate, Low class piece of shit. That comment about Chelsea Clinton is not called for and you are off the chart out of line.
I do not give a shit what side of the aisle you or anyone is on, saying anything negative, derogatory or the like about the children of those in politics is totally unacceptable.
You are nothing but a glob of diseased pecker puke.

You’re Fucking Welcome
Fuck You

Well, his calling Chelsea "unattractive" is certainly more palatable than your calling other TER members "globs of diseased pecker puke".

In other words, who are you to criticize others when you are just as guilty of the same actions that you're criticizing. Who are you to proclaim "Do as I say, not as I do"? A TER mod?

you make as much sense as a soup sandwich.

I am not calling other TER memberS  a glob of diseased pecker puke. I’m calling just one TER member that, Liorr.

As for do as I say not as I do, I am not telling Liorr  or anyone what they can and cannot do or say, I am however very much criticizing Loirr for saying what he said.

I am not guilty of the same actions that I criticized Liorr, I did NOT make a rude and insulting comment about the attractiveness of the  daughter of a political figure.

In other words you are dishonestly distorting the facts and are a liar.

You’re Welcome

You are trying to rationalize your actions by claiming that you are less guilty than he because of who and how you are criticizing others.

Nope, that doesn't fly. Your still as guilty as he.
