birds cold drive good last
It was good last year, and it should be as good or even better this year. I don't think we have any cold to drive them out. There should be birds around.
address domino effect impact money
It's an impact and a money investment, ... If we don't address this now, what other domino effect will occur?
afford chapter costs counseling credit education force increase late require
It will increase their costs and require credit counseling and education when it's too late to do any good, ... It will also force many into Chapter 13 when they can't afford it.
boys wings rats
As far as I am concerned, collectively, the right wing of the blogosphere is the 'boy who called traitor.' Not a week goes by when I hear that so and so should be ostracized because they are a treasonous rat, they are a commie symp, whatever.
party italian agreement
I really don't understand how bipartisanship is ever going to work when one of the parties is insane. Imagine trying to negotiate an agreement on dinner plans with your date, and you suggest Italian and she states her preference would be a meal of tire rims and anthrax. If you can figure out a way to split the difference there and find a meal you will both enjoy, you can probably figure out how bipartisanship is going to work the next few years.
decision staffing made
For an omnipotent and omniscient being, God has made some really lousy earthly staffing decisions.
country fighting past
We need to invade Michigan and rebuild the state from the ground up. We will be greeted as liberators, we have clear supply lines, and we can easily rebuild the auto industry with the kind of money we spend on other countries we invade. Hell, our new Secretary of State, Hillary of Clinton, spent the better part of the past year fighting for the rights of average folks from Michigan, so think of the good will we have with the public. This is very doable. Just tell Congress we will give KBR no-bid contracts to fix Detroit.
real writing damage-control
Ann Coulter is, at this point, a known quantity (especially after the raghead remarks last year), and she delivered what they knew she would deliver. Where were the complaints in advance of her appearance? There were none that I am aware of, and this is just damage control. An open letter isn't going to solve the real problem with the conservative movement. And hell, the authors can't even write this letter without sniping at liberal websites. Ann Coulter is not the problem - she is a symptom of the problem.
depressing jealous opportunity
The most depressing thing about blogging is watching so-called 'citizen journalists' turn in to little more than easily offended partisan hacks. Any remark that is slightly less than completely and totally scripted and can give the slightest opportunity to offend some delicate soul somewhere is used to set off a series of partisan screeches and cries of outrage that would make the Church Lady jealous.
religious couple party
Speaking as someone who bought the party line for far too long, you would be amazed what you can believe if you keep convincing yourself the press, the libs, the universities - hell, everyone but a few on the religious fringe and big business - are out to get you. I was lucky - I started to snap out of this a couple of years ago and hopefully will now apply to both major parties the same skepticism and cynicism I had in the past reserved for Democrats.
war agents terror
We are going to lose the war on terror because all of our agents are tied up investigating the GOP.
league administration traitor
It never gets old, being told you are a traitor and in league with the terrorists because you disagree with current administration policy.
leaks espionage
The best leaks always take place in the urinal.
birds eight few nine seeing seen
The first few years after it was planted they may have had a lot of pheasants or quail on it, and now eight or nine years later, they are not seeing as many birds as they had seen previously. Some of it hasn't been managed well over the years.
