he said few thought the chicago teachers demands were justified, but in re NFL refs, suddenly the demands were reasonable? or just irrelevant?

Just irrelevant.

A lot of money is bet on NFL football. If giving into ridiculous demands is what it takes, it is what it takes.

Of course, those who bet the pros the last three weeks are degenerate gamblers as how can you handicap bad calls...

Goodell, NFL was sententious
Effete, arrogant and contentious
While I hate union thuggery
The bizarre Packer muggery
Finally got Rog to act conscientious

Senator Harry Reid has been making so many sententious remarks regarding his Mormon credentials that I'm starting to wonder how close the race in Nevada might be getting.

After all, if your guy is so comfortably ahead, why even bother to lift a finger to help Obozo if he's coasting to re-election.....hmmmmm?

Here's yesterday's homework for you....I've been sick...

Can anyone explain the neologism of the word "Misunderestimated"?

Furthermore, should we apply this word to describe the current election cycle and suggest that perhaps Romney's voter base is not as advertised by the media polling?

A++
I hope you are feeling better. The word “misunderestimate” springs from the same lips that brought us “strategery.” Miss him yet?

Ann Coulter’s new book, “Mugged”, will certainly be sententious if her previous tomes are examples.

That’s what has me wondering about ozero’s trips to Ohio. If it’s so in the bag, why waste the money? A for you.

It’s an infringement on your constitutional rights. It’s outrageous, egregious, preposterous!

The sententious Madam O is very pretentious when it comes to the food Americans eat, but her husband can be quite abstentious when it comes to following her diet recommendations...

Cuyahoga county (city of Cleveland) is the heavily democratic area and it takes Hamilton (City of Cincinnati) and it's surrounding counties and Franklin (City of Columbus) and it's surrounding counties to counter the Dimrat advantage in Cleveland.

The good news is Cleveland has been going to hell for awhile and the population has been leaving slowly over the last decade, and the other two cities, Columbus and Cincinnati, have slowly been growing over the same time period.

Ohio has approxoimately 8 million register voters, in the 2008 election, Ohio had 5.5 million vote. Obozo got 2.94 million, and McStain got 2.67 million.

In 2010, only 3.7 million voted in that election and the Governors election was on the ballot but he only won by 80,000 votes.....in 2011 the voter registration went down to 7.7 million in the state (300,000 less voters were registered) a year after a Republican Governor won and a Republican Sec. of State won and 3.6 million showed up to vote on the referendum of the government union contracts, just like Wisconsin BUT the unions won and the three cities I mentioned in the first paragraph above all voted heavily for the union position but the way the ballot wrote the issue up it was confussing to understand wheither to vote yes or no....this is why Ohio is a mystery.....

Finally, Democrat ID is down by like 3% in the state, Republican ID is up by 5.5% and Indie ID is like up 12%.....with this in mind I think these polls are cherry picking their numbers in heavily democrat counties located all over the state.
