Game on boys and girls…

I heard as well Bubba likes this show. Rush spoke of it today.

flyboy777 on March 26, 2007 at 9:06 PM

Alright Ricky…man up and make the call dude.

Pilgrim on March 26, 2007 at 9:10 PM

Sure…he thinks he’s Jack.

jatfla on March 26, 2007 at 9:10 PM

And miss Dancing with the stars, I don’t think so!

LakeRuins on March 26, 2007 at 9:11 PM

Is this what they did to Sharon?

jatfla on March 26, 2007 at 9:18 PM

Bill Clinton watches Bonanza? Gotta be an excuse for not going to bed with Hillary.

RedWinged Blackbird on March 26, 2007 at 9:22 PM

Was S(l)ick Willie’s lips moving when he said that?

steveegg on March 26, 2007 at 9:25 PM

Good job Ricky!

Pilgrim on March 26, 2007 at 9:33 PM

Somebody please put a silver bullet into Ricky Stratton.

steveegg on March 26, 2007 at 9:34 PM

Well…they’ll really be able to work now!!!

jatfla on March 26, 2007 at 9:40 PM

Dang, they really made you feel for the autistic brother. I was nervous for the guy.

Slublog on March 26, 2007 at 9:49 PM

Thank GOD they didn’t shoot the rainman. If they had this would have been my last episode. It might be anyway, it’s getting a little too PC for me. I am tired of how all the bad guys have to be spread across the broad spectrum. The next house Jack and the pack bust into will be to ambush the kitchen sink.

In real life, how many do you suppose get immunity?

A VP launching such an attack under these circumstances seems very unlikely though many would like to view a right-wing, war mongerer as determined to do just this kind of thing.

“As you know, my wife is away, so I’m home alone a lot,” Clinton said of Sen. Hillary Clinton, who is running for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008. “I’m particularly grateful to TV Land for giving me something to do at night.”

How nice and boring. He could always join the HOTAiR commentariat.

Don’t be too sure…I remember one Secretary of State claiming that “He was in Charge” after Reagan was shot.

I’ll go get the ice.

steveegg on March 26, 2007 at 11:28 PM

This show is getting far too politically correct for me.
If it continues this way I may have to rethink my viewing
habbits..

The writers have got to think of some way to extract info from criminals that doesn’t involve threats of A) shooting kneecaps or B) removing bodily parts. I’d settle for a plastic bag over the head for a little variety.

But whatever happened to superior cunning?

And the better authors in the genre (John “39 Steps” Buchan) knew that you had to have some sly humor in the mix to keep the adrenalin from turning to vinegar.

We’re fighting for the survival of our instinctual pleasure, not just our efficient machinery.

Haig did that because VP Bush wasn’t in Washington. He was trying to calm the waters of a panicky press room, and send a message to the Soviets not to try anything funny. At that point they had no idea that shooting Reagan was about impressing Jodie Foster. We easily forget how to tense things were then.

The show is no longer watchable. So why does it get its own thread, but there’s no thread for the season finale of BSG? Have the HA admins lost their frakkin’ minds? There must be some way out of here…

Blacklake on March 27, 2007 at 11:06 AM

My guess is because we are coming to the end of the third month of this year and BSG will not be back until 2008. Perhaps they are still in shock for such a massive gap in season change…
