Sorry Hillary, but making fun of Barack's message of unity and hope is NOT going to help you get substantial wins in Ohio and Texas -- the only way you'll be able to stay in this race. You are not going to steal his supporters by making fun of them. You've already tried that, and he kicked your ass in the debate. He knows there are challenges, but you seem to only want to fight with people rather than getting things done in Washington. Just because it's a challenge doesn't mean it has to be a ridiculously bitter fight, which seems to be your goal.

Your campaign almost went bankrupt, to the point that you had to donate $5 million to it. Oh yeah, Hillary, where are your tax returns and a list of the donors to the Bill Clinton Presidential Library so we can get a clearer idea of where your money is coming from? We know Bill got paid $20 million by the Emir of Dubai for a business deal supposedly gone bad, though many have speculated that the $20 million payoff was more of a political ploy by Dubai than anything else. We all know they got blocked from trying to buy some key ports in the U.S. They are looking to buy more political power and influence in an effort to get more of their interests passed into law.

If you can't even properly run a Presidential campaign, then how the fuck are you going to run the country? You are overspending and already in big debt for the campaign. This spells a disastrous time for America if she is elected. If she can't run a damn campaign properly, then no one should trust her to run the government properly -- particularly the government's budget.

Deception detected by the first polygraph expert. This story should now be a non-issue. Hell yeah. It's amazing how desperate Hillary and the right wing are to tear down a guy that has the potential to do some incredible things for us, particularly with regard to our reputation overseas thanks to his diverse background (including his ehtnicity AND the very diverse places he has lived growing up).

Whitehouse.com seems to be stringing people along. At first they claimed they would release the results of one expert's analysis at 12 PM EDT today. Then they said that the second expert's results would be back soon so they would just wait and release them both between 1 and 1:30 PM EDT. Yet here it is almost 1:50 PM EDT and no update. At the very least, they are stringing people along to get more hits from people hitting the refresh button. And of course, this Sinclair fellow himself is getting paid just to take the test even if he fails.

Wouldn't surprise me one bit. High office got an extreme perversion rate. They're like priests.

It's not the sex part that he is calling him out on. It's the drug claims. Obama has admitted to drug use when he was a teenager but has said he has never done them as an adult.

I've donated $25 to Obama and voted for him here in the Texas primary. If this turns out to be true, it'd become pretty humorous. I'd definitely never trust another politician again. I don't trust McCain and I don't trust Clinton, but Obama felt like someone trustworthy. We'll see what happens, but if it is true, he will likely be the most ashamed public official in modern U.S. history; even worse than Nixon.

There's 3 outcomes to this:

1. He's telling the truth.
2. He's lying.
3. He's crazy so he can't fail a polygraph test, which means Barack would need to take one and if he passes, then it's obvious Larry Sinclair is crazy.

A reporter in Chicago investigated the guy and said that he was institutionalized at the time he claimed this incident happened.

Yeah you'll love it!! BD on a big screen is awesome!

40 inches isn't a big screen. tongue16

What kind of player do you have?

HD DVD is fucked...

i still think that the PS3 dropping prices coupled with XBOX 360 being shitty quality, and crapping out on alot of people, played a major role in the demise of the HD DVD

If Microsoft had built the HD DVD player into the Xbox 360, HD DVD would have more players (it still out-sells the PS3) and consequently a similar amount of sales right now. Anyway, it's definitely over now with Wal-Mart, Best Buy, and Netflix all favoring Blu-ray.

I agree with James that this looks "cookie cutter" but I'm ok with that. I've actually never seen an Indy movie (yes, Neemo... I KNOW 16) So I may check them out before this hits so I'm up to speed.

Uh, yeah. You should definitely check them out. The second one is good but far from great. However, the first and third ones are great. smile

Forgot about that one.

I doubt Indiana Jones is the biggest movie of the summer, although definitely top 5. I don't have a summer release list handy, but I'm going to assume the Batman flick or some kid film will take the top spot.

Indy reaches the wide demographics. I think TDK will be a better movie, but that doesn't seem to mean much when it comes to box office. The first Indy movie adjusts to over $600 million in 2008 dollars. The biggest Batman film, Batman '89, adjusts to around $430 million by comparison. The second Indy flick adjusts to $365 million and the third one adjusts to $337 million. It's a huge franchise, on the level of the likes of Spider-Man, Pirates, or Shrek. In fact, Pirates is kind of a rip-off of the swashbuckling style of Indy. Pirates and National Treasure's success is proof that this style of movie can be hugely successful. Indy is a lock for $300 million domestically. TDK isn't. TDK will be very fortunate to be that big due to the fact that it will have such dark content. I think Indy will make in the range of $310-320 million. Potter, which comes out in November, will also be big -- probably around $295-300 million. Narnia 2 should make over $275 million pretty easily. TDK will likely make around $250-275 million. Those will be the 4 biggest movies of the year unless Wall-E, a Pixar movie about a robot, breaks out and ends up huge. Pixar has been on the decline in their box office power since Finding Nemo.
