You're not a centrist, you're an independent. Tom Friedman is a centrist.

Re: My God, you are an idiot.

Sometime we should try Keynesian stimulus, since this austerity business isn't working:

You are missing my point. I don't claim to be a centrist, and I wouldn't describe you as one either. I'm talking about the Tom Friedmans of the world who say we need a third party.

Double down on failure. Sounds intriguing. I can't wait.

I don't think prosecutors are quite so dumb as to believe that every guy they are dealing with is Al Capone.

And cheered every grey tactic used to get them there.
In 1 case, yes, in the other no. Both continue to maintain their innocence.

Seems to me you did not want to bet on the Presidential race.

I'll offer again. Name your amount.

The government job I was in was all stat driven. We knew who did shit work and cherry picked the chip shot files, and the supervisors had to know too. But the only thing that got bonii and promotion was stats. I have no idea if that translates to prosecutors or not, but if Al Capone and Club's friend are both a simple "count" on the stat list that is some scary shit, cuz club's friend is the easier count.

Perhaps not, but my experience, all in an exceedingly narrow field mind you, is that they all feel more moral outrage than seems appropriate to my lawless sensibilities.

RT said if I take any more of your money I'll be kicked off the board. The owner of the site has a son who is also mentally handicapable and is offended by how I've treated you Sorry if I offended you.

This would be funnier had you ever won a bet with me.

But the only other bet I recall making was on Obama.
