House rejects gay marriage ban amendment

Let's you and him fight
That's the name of a game that instigators play, and less-than-sharpest-knives-in-the-drawer fall into.

I love the game and love watching it played. That's what this thread and other similar ones are all about.

Statesmanship? Not my strongest suit - I'm more of a kickass kinda guy.

As for stemcell research ~ It's vital ~ but the fact is that regardless of how it's done, somebody will have a problem with it.

One thing wrong with America ~ Freedom of opinion ~ You are free to have my opinion.

Don't take me seriously, I don't.(cabpatch)
 
I personally thought that threads such as these let Mazda owners express their opinions and debate while having a little fun with each other. But some people get just plain nasty. I just don't see the point of instigating fights and such but I feel your point.

I don't take you too seriously, but I think you're an interesting guy.
 
Thanks for the props - oh yeah, on the elder statesman thing - you were half right. Dead on on the "elder" part

Hey man, you know that they didn't ban stem cell research right? They just banned using taxpayer money to fund it. There is still stem cell reseach going on privately, also there is still funded stem cell research happening on adult stem cells, unbilical cords and other such organs. The President is just against creating life for sole purpose of destroying it. Almost like human harvesting.


Well, this pretty much sums it up. I think the pharmaceutical companies make enough money that they can fund their own research.
 
Actually I had some greying, and then I wasn't sure if my hairline was receding, or my forehead was growing - so I gave up, and now I shave the whole thing.
 
Thats my plan. No rogaine, no just for men, I'm gunna rock the stone cold, Lex Luthor, look! I keep my hair pretty short anyways!
 
My wife likes to rub it, and I love for her to do that.

It does drive the ladies wild! My wife happens to like it when I shave my head too.

Maybe if Stedmon shaved his head...........
 
lol
Just remember that the thread started with the gay marriage ban amendment(sssh)
 
I tried another tact

If you can't bedazzle them with your brilliance, then baffle them with your bulls***!

Stem cell research will continue but it will take a while (decades) before any truly useful breakthroughs come from it. I think it holds promise for healing diseases and paralysis e.t.c in the future.

So I'm all for the research, but I think we should proceed cautiously so as not to head down a slippery slope.

But hey if you don't agree with the Pres, it's easy to solve. Just cast your votes this year and in 08.

I just want to point out that I just put forth my opinion without talking trash or trying to strat a flame-war or calling anyone a retard or attacking anyone.

I hope some of the more boisterous members of our forum can do the same.

You ruined part of what I was going to say.. Why is there even an issue about stem cell research? They can pull it from the s*** we throw away after a baby is born.

These are the guys who'll come and get you no matter where you are on the planet. That's the way it should be, and that's where our attention should be this morning.

Note the wedding band on the Marine in the foreground - Some young wife (and maybe son or daughter) wishes he was home and able to do some posting in this forum today.
