Didn't some hostages get released when Reagan became President?

Indians were not American citizens and if things hadn't developed the way they did, we would not be on computers discussing it on this board. Show me any new country in history that was formed without the killing of the aborigines and the takeover of their land. It is certainly not unique to America.

Thanks Soulja. Then the answer to my question is politics.

Still, how can the loss of millions have no effect?

He is looking for the right players that fit his system regardless of it being a 3star or 5star athlete. He wants kids that will come in and work hard not a kid that is highly decorated and expects to play right away just because he is a 4 or 5 star player. Primadonna's are not what he is looking for. Look at what Briles has done with 2 and 3 star athletes with a couple of 4's mixed in. It is all about knowing what players fit your system and how bad they want it. Look back and see how many 5 star highly decorated high school players bombed out once they got to college. I would much rather a kid with heart, drive and determination to get better and work his arse off to do it instead of the Primadonna that comes in and thinks just because he has 5 stars by his name he is automatically the stud star of the team. Not saying all 5stars are like that but I have watched plenty of them fall flat on their face and not live up to that 5star much less a 2star athlete.

Justice is the guise they operate under. If true justice was their goal, then it would be for everyone, not just blacks.

Dove needs to live in Pakistan where the parents of a 9 month old boy threw bricks at police trying to collect an unpaid bill. The 9 month old was finger printed and charged with attempted murder. I'll post a link if need be.

More raids today in BISD.

Here is the link. http://www.cnn.com/2014/04/05/world/asia/pakistani-baby-charged/index.html?iphoneemail

HUNG.......he accepted a plea deal.....and gave up a few million dollars,,,,,,innocent people always do that ;)

I wonder when the administration will start regulating volcanos?

Why would anyone be concerned with the ill effects of tobacco on veterans when we have Obamacare?

Just a step further, if a 17 year old is old enough to die for his country, he is also old enough to drink, smoke, buy pistols, and anything else someone 21 and over is allowed to do.

Good one Nash. However, I think the solution would be to house all cattle and horses. Then set up some expensive methane retrieving system whereby the final step would be to somehow introduce it into our gasoline products. We could go a step further by retrieving from our very own fart fans which are now city code. It could also be bottled and burned in your Coleman stoves and lanterns. The oil companies should love it.

It would also come pre-scented.

As an assistant superintendent, he knew exactly what he was stepping into.

How is posting what we read considered jumping the gun? I find your nonchalant attitude towards a school district that has to be taken over by a state board due to malfeasance and misappropriation of funds to be insulting to say the least. I also consider you an enabler.

All board members will be relieved of duties. Anyone privy to criminal activity will be asked to come forward.

8-4 is just a mediocre number I threw out there. It is what you were this year. My comment is derived from the fact that if Igs are content with (8-4), only if they think is bests UT, then you are doomed to (8-4). To become a champion, you have to be better than everyone. You lose focus if you concentrate on only one team to "outdo". This mentality really amazes me.

Why can't there be a JFF thread without even the mention of UT?

I will reiterate....congrats to JFF.

Although we are on different sides of the fence, I usually respect your posts. This one is just thoughtless or blinded by hatred.

Strong came in at the end of recruiting and he's proven he can't recruit? Seriously? Ask the coaches at the Florida schools if they agree with you. And do you think the pro day turnouts were about the states of the programs or whether one had a potential #1 pick? Guess how many teams were present during Vince's pro day workout? More than were in CS today. Of course, they did get to trip to Austin too which was an added benefit...

Not only is my argument for Nugent's right to speak his mind, it is also to say we should be thankful that we have people who think like him today and they were around during WWII. If we had people who think like our current administration back in the day, we would all be speaking German or not exist at all. Yes, I am thankful for his rather outlandish behavior and his outspoken views. It keeps everything in check.

Tvc, you're using logic and reason as tactics for debate. Isn't that a tad unfair? You won't get a response to your last post, and if you do, it will be from left field (pun intended).

I've said this before but I will reiterate. The rights for everyone as Americans has been fought and died for countless times. People just don't seem to understand that. People with similar ideals as Nugent stood up to governments with their "fingers in the air" mentality. Britain, Germany twice, Italy, Japan, Russia (Bay of Pigs), China in Vietnam and Korea......people like PAMFAM just don't realize that had Hitler conquered the world, PAMFAM would not exist because there would be only one race. He should thank people like Nugent for his views, even though he is not in complete agreement with each and every word, at least thank him for having convictions and speaking his mind, not allowing himself to be ran roughshod so that PAMFAM has the right to speak his mind on here. What a concept.

Ted cares not if you like his music or his political stance. That's what I like about him. He shoots straight from the hip.

I have been to Longview. Ted, take the money and run. You haven't missed anything.

I hardly ever listen to celebrities and their opinions except for Ted Nugent (because he is so down to earth). Most of Hollywood and Rock Stars are a different breed and can AFFORD to think differently because a lot of what they try to convince you to do does not affect them. Do I really care what Adam Levine and J-Lo's moms want for their kids? J-Lo is worth hundreds of millions of dollars, yet she needs Obamacare? C'mon people. Let's think past our noses.

True. That's how you go after championships.

True. That's how you go after championships.

Wasn't that Germany? Thought Russia got Crimea as part of the spoils.

It was once before and it didn't affect us. I have mixed emotions about this. Russia shouldn't do this but why should I care?
