  1. Rep Dennis Kucinich is on the floor of the House right now introducing legislation that contains something like 35 articles of impeachment against Bush. It's being aired on C-SPAN right now. Nothing may come of it in the long run, but it's interesting none the less. At the very least it's an interesting political move. You don't issue 35 articles as organized as he is without some decent organization behind him.
  2. They could have at least backed it out so they don't spring Kawi's new ZX-14 dildo attachment right out the gate.
  3. Ugh. I was excited to see what it looked like and when it rolled out I threw up a little.
  4. The tank on it is 4.8 gallons. I remember finding it odd that it had a bigger tank than the 650r (4.1).
  5. Way to read the thread. :roll:
  6. I understand and I agree. I know how bad the VA sucks. Why not have the event on Veterans Day though? Veterans Day is set aside to remember all veterans past and present dead and living. Why hijack a day set aside to remember those that have passed in service?
  7. From the Rolling Thunder newsletter: "We must remember, it is a demonstration. That’s right, it’s a demonstration. It is not a parade, or a rally, or a protest, or a motorcade or a procession. It is a demonstration and it is our right as Americans to demonstrate against something we believe needs to be corrected." They had their Ride for Freedom event to demonstrate for better health care for Veterans. I agree they need better health care especially for those that were injured in service...but... 1) this wasn't Veteran's Day, this is Memorial Day when we remember those that have died in our Nation's service. 2) Their demonstration causes thousands to ride around DC all weekend. At least a parade has a start and finish.
  8. Yeah but it's crowded there on other weekends as it is and is even more so on Memorial Day weekend when a huge number of people walk through the mall area and the other sites to remember and reflect on the sacrifices that have been made. This is one of those times where it's appropriate to have quiet moments of remembrance at the different memorials. Try having that when you have thousands of rather loud pipes rumbling around constantly. Hell sitting next to just a couple of HDs is annoying enough, I can't imagine having to deal with the number that were there and trying to pay respects. For what its worth, I have been down there when larger group rides have gone through the area and even then it's more than noticeable. Also, you can be as big a dick as you want and I would never discount your service.
  9. and now you're full of shit. I never said that. Feel free to spin my posts however you like. I said the ride that's performed is un-patriotic of them. I never once said they aren't patriots or aren't capable of be patriotic.
  10. Ah see I'm not a big enough dick to say your service didn't count.
  11. yeah and I edited my post right away realizing how bad it was. Hope you enjoyed your little bike ride around DC.
  12. I served four years for no other reason than to serve my country.
  13. I would be more than happy to.
  14. Being a vet doesn't excuse you from being a douchebag.
  15. Only douchebags think riding around DC on Memorial Day weekend is patriotic. It's actually a pretty un-patriotic thing to do. Disturbing those visiting the memorials is a pretty dick thing to do. I can only imagine the amount of noise generated by those blowhards. If you've ever traveled down through that area it's already a PITA as it is, I can't imagine having to deal with thousands self absorbed riders traveling in giant circles.
  16. Tons of gravel and an occasional pool of Jello pudding.
  17. Yeah they closed in late fall I think. I'll run by the next time I'm out.
  18. Of course they would want a controlling share of a company like that. They can't make a decent engine of their own to save their life. Having had to lay off a bunch of workers has HD in a tight spot. Access to real bike tech would breath new life into the HD line.
  19. The measure wont pass and is crap. It's unfair to these animals that they have been bred with overly aggressive tendencies. There should be an effort to starting breeding the more aggressive breeds out. Pits, Rotts, and Presa Canarios account for nearly 80% of all dog attacks/bites.
  20. Yeah if you're on the other side of the interstate I generally wont wave back. Occasionally I will though if we're both cruising in the passing lanes somewhat near each other. Scooters? I don't care. You wave at me I'll wave at you, but I'm not waving first. Complete squid in shorts, t-shirt, and no helmet? You get a single finger wave you douchebag. Haven't seen any retards yet pulling extremely stupid crap on the interstate or roads around Centerville. When I do they get devoted to memory and if I'm in my car and have my camera or cell phone on me they are getting added to wall of dumbass I'm starting along with the squids. HD guys have started the snubbing early this year for some reason. Maybe they know their days are numbered. They keep it up and I hope one day their stuck up, gay (not that there's anything wrong with that) Village People looking asses are nothing more than a bad memory. HD is one of those companies that needs to just go under. I'll just keep waving to them for now though. My favorites to wave back at, other than a cute girl of course, are little kids. Nothing makes sitting in traffic after the end of a long day better than some little kid waving and then exchanging goofed up looks with them while they crack up laughing.
