I just noticed the RCP polling numbers on the Moore election. It looks like Moore's numbers are back to where he was a month ago. He's keeping very steady, and the only person seeing any swing in numbers is Jones... who is now behind 2 points on average.

Someone should remind Jones that his strategy of keeping out of the spotlight while his opponent takes the hits didn't work for Clinton, and it's not working for him either.

Can you imagine what would happen if Moore wins this? Weeks of liberals crucifying their own (sort of) to avoid the appearance of hypocrisy, only for them to be lose an election to the guy who provoked the crusade....

On that note, let's hold a moment of silence for Matt Lauer.

I wouldn't buy anything with Star Wars on it to be honest. They haven't made a good Star Wars game since knights of the old republic.

Matt Lauer let me guess he likes to tie women up and have them call him daddy.

EA's day of reckoning is here after 'Star Wars' game uproar, $3 billion in stock value wiped out
CNBC

Quote:
Electronic Arts' shareholders are running for the hills this month and for good reason.

The company's profitable business model is now at risk after angry gamers revolted over its aggressive in-game moneymaking strategy in "Star Wars Battlefront II."

EA's stock is down 8.5 percent month to date through Tuesday compared with the S&P 500's 2 percent gain, wiping out $3.1 billion of shareholder value.

Maybe they will get the message then when you spend 60 bucks you should get a full game. Not a half baked game filled with micro transactions and DLC

I'm proud of EA. The only thing that can stop companies from getting away with these exploitive business tactics is for one of them to screw up so badly that it causes the tactics to become taboo.

They don't care about the customers nearly as much as they care about their bottom line. Once your bottom line is screwed, it forces a change.

The worst thing any game company has ever done is with the Sims series. They release a beta game with expansions that should have been int he game at 30 bucks each.

I think Bill Cosby should host the Today show and bring back his jazz and Christmas sweaters. So he drugged some women and took advantage of them. No different then what happens every night at a frat house.

How about that Slobodan Praljak giving the UN a big F.U?

Woke up this morning to Trump’s latest conspiracy theory against greatest political opponent “cable tv op editorial host” .

Somehow he managed to hit Lauer and Scarborough simultaneously.

Quote:
“So now that Matt Lauer is gone when will the facts I don't like practitioners at NBC be terminating the contract of Phil Griffin? And will they terminate low ratings Joe Scarborough based on the “unsolved mystery” that took place in Florida years ago? Investigate!”

Somebody a the DoJ should put a special investigatory counsel together with Robert Stack, Dennis Farina and Keely Shaye Smith.

In america the top 10% of taxpayers pay over 60% of the invome tax.

Libs somehow think theyre not paying their fair share? By what measure?

Now break down that "top 10%" and realize where the line actually is and how ridiculously large the welfare state now is. The upper 10% is 160K of household income, meaning two earners making 80K each or similar distribution. That is solidly in the professional middle class category, IT people, technicians, engineers and other skilled but not wealthy people. Top 5% is around 250K household income, meaning two earners of 125K each which is the more experienced workers or those in super high cost of living area's. A senior IT guy in California can look to be making 160K a year and be the same as guy making 65K a year in Central Louisiana. You don't see " evil rich people" until you hit the top 0.01%. Further the highest earners aren't White Males, but Asian Males, a historically discriminated minority that now runs everything.

More income distribution date

https://wallethacks.com/average-median-income-in-america/

The 50% percentile of individual earners is 30K a year, poverty line is 24K and once income credits and standard deduction is counted for we arrive at less then 50% of US workers actually paying taxes.

~THAT~ is why we don't want more unskilled illegals into the country, all they end up doing is occupying the bottom of that graph and place a higher burden on those in the top 50%. Also the US job market is such that if you don't have a valuable skillset, usually earned through practice and studying, you are stuck doing ***jobs without a path to rise up. Considering people are told to "go to university and learn whatever makes you happy", it's no wonder we have so many people with ***degree's and student loan debts. They then get pissed at those who made good decisions and now possess a middle class professional career and demand the fruits of those good decisions and career by confiscated by the state and given to the bad decision makers so they can continue making bad decisions.
