Show us your leanings!
North Buffalo replied to Randall Flagg's topic in The Oval Office (Politics)'s Topics
Poltical points of view tend to be circumference in nature not a linear continuums. The extremes or opposites on both liberal v conservative and authoritian v libertarian meet on the opposite ends of the spectrum and mimic each other in view points making them almost indistiguishable. -
Is #walkaway a thing?
North Buffalo replied to 5th line wingnutt's topic in The Oval Office (Politics)'s Topics
Yes both sides do these kind of announcements. Once you leave one party the other side considers you a traitor and if you are moderate the new party will consider you with suspicion... almost better to go independent but then you don’t have the backing of one of the machines. Yeh people do unidentify but not enough to truly make them independent. Those that do might split tickets, but they still lean heavily one way or the other in their post breakup voting habits and usually with the party they split with. Too lazy to look up stats but trends rarely show true splits. -
TY will do and will let you know if I am successful.

Ah been a while since I have been to the French River... beautiful tributary to the Georgian Bay. Went fly fisching once on a lake in Maine. I have done a lot of small tackle fisching so I picked the casting up fast. But setting the hook on small trout was interesting. I asked my guide if I have to really set the hook. He said yes, so I used two hands like you would for a small mouth bass. Darn fisch came flying from thirty yards away and almost hit the bow of the canoe. My guide nearly tipped the canoe over he was laughing so hard. Figured it out and recently received a fly tying kit last year as a present. One of these days, when I can find some time, gotta try my hand at it.

The Politics of Gender
North Buffalo replied to That Aud Smell's topic in The Oval Office (Politics)'s Topics
Thanks Josie, LTS and Aud. Interesting read, deal folks from all walks of life in the ER. I just ask a person's name without pronoun to avoid that kind of issue. That being said, I both got educated and confused by this thread. Great read and I will have to do some thinking on it to see how well I address folks from those walks of life. Hmm food for thought. -

Can't do this at work... but tend to be close to the middle on these things. It depends on the issue. -
Guidelines for Club Operation
North Buffalo replied to LTS's topic in The Oval Office (Politics)'s Topics
P.S. Good Capitol Rags include Rollcall.com and theHill.com Also the economist.com In addition much information on Bills and their outlooks and general background on arguments for and against are published by the congressional research service or http://www.loc.gov/crsinfo/ Much of it is made public. In addition the General Accounting Office and the Government Printing Office (GAO.gov and GPO.gov) has copies of laws. Finally the congressional record is a great resource as well. To figure out intent, though non-binding, it is helpful to read the conference report of legislation passed, especially appropriations bills because they actually list the line items of expenditures. Doing so helps to weed through the rhetoric to see what was actually done v what politicians say was done.- 5 replies

sorry predetermined or limited choices, hence prescribed

Im good with that too, Erne however can play and came into his own before he got hurt.
-
yeh not what I was thinking. Maybe just two or three tag limit and choices should be standard or prescribed, guess that was what I thought you were suggesting

Add in all NHL team names

Erne is young and got hurt last year, but drove play when he was on the ice.

If it help with search function, I usually only search stuff ive replied to but once in a while especially tags related to specific players or teams comes in handy.

Yeh did mine a couple of years ago. Prep sucks no two ways about. PS dont eat Buffalo wings before hand. No I didnt... the sauce might make a torture prep though.

Ive checked them out when something is going down on trade rumor speculation... yeh a lot of bs to skim thru to figure out why something is going down. Twitter often suffices now.

Two tier sounds fine, ah on hold em league sorry didnt understand. So it would be only a partial draft or do we start fresh? Not even sure who I had left because of all my QB injuries lol
-
Im am fine with a relegation league also is a keeper league one of those deals with no wheeling and dealing... Not sure with all the injuries last year to wide recievers and QBs gotta think you will need to give defensive plays more credit then or season could be over for a couple of folks earlier.

It is a form of Democracy, just not a direct Democracy... its known as a representative Democracy.... just saying Happy Fourth. After I get off work taking the wife and kids to the Staten Island Yankees AAA game at the end of the ferry ride by the Statue of Liberty. At the end they turn off lights have fireworks then get to watch the NYC fireworks and all the rivertown shows because of the view from the stadium right next to ferry terminal.
