Media Refused to Meet With Gestapo Chief Holder.......
KirtFalcon replied to RETIREDFAN1's topic in Political Arena
The first order of business should be holder's resignation .... followed shortly by an indictment for perjury. -
Confucioius say, Bot who invade Smoaky forum wind up as lonesome dove in land of eagles and hawks.
-
I'd take a 6-10 season if it meant getting rid of Tony Turnover and starting the process of looking for another franchise QB.
-
I would love to see holder doing time in the big house.

Dusty Baker: NHL-style fighting should resolve MLB conflicts By David Brown | Big League Stew Mon, May 27, 2013 1:11 PM EDT (Getty Images) It's not often that someone in another sport says "We ought to handle this issue like the NHL does." Leave it to contrarian manager Dusty Baker of the Cincinnati Reds. Baker, following a tiff between the Chicago Cubs and one of his pitchers, suggested that Major League Baseball use hockey's time-honored tactics when it comes to settling disputes on the field: Let the players fight. In this case, Matt Garza of the Cubs and Johnny Cueto of the Reds. From C. Trent Rosecrans of Cincinnati.com: OK, it's not exactly like hockey, where they throw down the gloves before fighting, and get put inside of the room after the fight is over. But, as with video replay review, it might take some time to massage the system. Two things: Would players who fight have to sit out for two innings, or five? Also: Does the fighting strap attach at the jock strap? Baker went one further: “Just put them in a room, let them box and let it be over with,” he added. “I always said this, let it be like hockey, let them fight, someone hits the ground and it’s over with. I’m serious about that.” The Cubs, particularly Garza, reacted angrily after Cueto buzzed David DeJesus with a fastball (way) over his head in the top of the sixth inning. The pitch appeared to "get away" from Cueto (that might have been part of his point) and sailed to the backstop without catcher Ryan Hanigan getting a mitt on it. Umpire Bob Davidson warned Cueto, and both of the benches cleared but, as with most baseball fights, no punches (or kicks — this time, Johnny) were actually thrown. Nobody could say for sure what Cueto's deal was, though Cubs manager Dale Sveum speculated that he appeared to take exception to DeJesus taking extra time in the batter's box getting ready. It also should be noted that Garza hit Todd Frazier with a pitch after allowing a home run by Jay Bruce in the fourth inning. Garza complained in the media, saying: Whatever, Baker said. Cueto didn't even come close to hitting anybody. “It’s kind of b.s. on his part, just totally immature. “If he has something to say about it, he knows where to find my locker and definitely I’ll find his. I took total disrespect out of that one.” “Guys didn’t talk as much, they just did it,” Baker said. “You bunt to first base, he covered the bag, you just did it. Guys are nicer now. They all have the same agent, they play on the same All-Star teams. The call each other, they text each other. It’s a nice game now. They talk before the game — about how far he hit one yesterday off me. They’re nice.” Baker said there’s more talking now, where in his playing days, players took care of it on the field, not in the media. Even if you don't happen to agree with Dusty regarding any of this or any of the other silly stuff he says, it's nice to have him around, saying silly stuff. Looking for more baseball chatter?

If barry hussein wasn't the first black president, impeachment proceedings would have already been underway. I don't think congress is willing to hold him, or eric holder accountable for fear of being called racists. Holder has lied to congress, under oath, at least three times now. What are they going to do about it? Probably not what they should, again for fear of being called racists. Obama, shrillary and holder are acting just like the three monkeys ... "see no evil, hear no evil, This is the most corrupt administration in history and it looks like they will just be able to run the clock out on all the scandals and corruption without being held accountable for their crimes. It's sad what this country has evolved into with this Marxist in the White House.

Even worse could include ignoring the world's bad players and letting terrorists operate unchecked -
I agree, they have always been populat. We haven't had a show like Gunsmoke, Rawhide or the Rifleman in a long time. Have you seen the show on A&E .... Longmire? It's pretty good and the new season just started tonight.

Martial arts training has it's place, but when you are faced with a situation with an idiot with a gun that knows how to use it and is willing to use it indiscrimately ... I'll take a well trained and well armed person with a loaded gun every time. -
