He does the VH1 "I Love the 80's" type shows a lot... he's usually funny.

sleepy jack · 08-29-2008, 02:19 PM

His essays yes, on vh1 no.

Whatsitoosit · 08-29-2008, 02:41 PM

ahh, come on... he has some moments. Ah well, to each his own.

Michael Ian Black just gave a welcome speech at my school. Apparently it was hilarious, but I didn't go.

Palin is a terrible choice. I highly doubt choosing her is going to give McCain any large bump in the polls, even with 1 in 5 Clinton supporters supposedly voting McCain. Especially not after the Democrats' just had what's basically the best convention anyone could have hoped for.

Yeah it was the system and not certain politicians who are to blame.

Well yeh, human nature certainly played a part, but a big part of it is the system. Do you really not think the system is flawed if the vast majority of mainstream politicians are corrupt in one way or another?

sleepy jack · 08-29-2008, 06:12 PM

Explain how the system is the cause of corrupt politicians.

ProggyMan · 08-29-2008, 06:25 PM

It's not the cause, but it's one of them. The main two parties are both subject to the whims of large corporations, if there were third, forth, fifth and so on parties then such a thing would be impossible, or at least less extreme.

You're still not explaining how.

McCain	5	9.43%
**** you RezZ, I'm not telling you!	6	11.32%
Voters: 53. You may not vote on this poll
