That's why there's a Secret Service. Don't think any protester even making an off-handed remark about violence against the President isn't getting a thorough checking-out. And rightfully so.

Have Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh incited violence? I don't see it. Maybe they've fired people up, maybe beyond reason, but I don't think they've incited violence.

But the fact we have crazies who brought stupid signs, a couple of them racially tinged, a couple of them glorifying violence is not a new development. The country survived much worse.  Those pictures of protesters were nice, but nothing new. When W was in power, I saw enough protest pictures that would make most of the Left cringe (at least I hope they would).

And on healthcare, sure people can get fired up over that. Why shouldn't they, especially if it affects them on a day-to-day basis?

It absolutely is.

There's also a difference between dissent and firing up the low-hanging fruit.

Anyone who doesn't see this ending with an assassination attempt is delusional.

Oh... did you mean Whoopi?

I certainly have my share of man love for the Original AP, but his 5.3 YPC yesterday on 3 carries was totally thanks to his first rush for 15 yards, not so much his second and third rushes (for 0 and 1 yard, respectively).

Regardless, my point was that Benson's 141 yard, 4.9 YPC day against the same Green Bay defense that held the Bears to 2.8 YPC last week suggests there may be some run blocking or running back issues (or both) remaining for the Bears to work out.

Or offensive play-calling, as SKO mentions above. Which, now that I think about it, strikes me as very, very reasonable.

Because Greenberg is terrible?

No way in Hell World Cup matches get played in a place that holds less than the United Center.

I didn't see of the second Monday Night game, but apparently Mike & Mike sucked ass.

Fuck soccer.

I imagine it's somewhere in the middle of these poles.

Technically, it sounds like Wheezer was listening to them.  I watched/listened for some of the game, too.  Nice to see them start to play some actual baseball now that baseball season is nearly over.

Can we get back to squirting about Derecles' return to 2005 form? Best OPS in baseball since the All-Star break. Not bad for a 34 year old a couple years removed from a broken wrist.

I'm still pissed that Hoffpauir isn't starting though. He'd be putting up way better numbers.

Is Drew Barrymore talking dirty to Ron?
