Mack has come to the last three State GOP re-organization meetings. His mother Rose Strong ran three years ago for chair of the Washington State GOP and is a looong time Republican activist with an impressive resume. Don’t be surprised to see Mack run for public office after his football career.

Mack has spoken to various Republican groups over the years. He a great guy and speaks very well in public.

I kid you not. It really happened. I forgot to add, when she asked who "Halley Burton" it really went like this.

Halley Burton, Halley Burton ?(as in trying to figure out how to pronounce her name) Who is she?

But clearly not being a political person, because anyone with a minimum interest in the subject knows who Halliburton is, I decided to just be nice and answer her question.

Surprisingly I get more positive reactions than negative about both shirts. I particularly like wearing them to poker games because out of the 10 at the table a few have to be libs and at least one a moonbat. If it gets them on tilt and messes with their head, its to my advantage.

You can’t find anyone more intolerant of divergent points of view than your died in the wool Liberal.

This demonstrates it conclusively.

What next? Boycott the Colts because they went to the Whitehouse after winning the Super Bowl?

Sheesh.

Shows you how deep seated the hatred is for George Bush is

I think it's deeper than just George W. Bush. I think the RATs are still fuming that Bubba got caught with the fat girl. This still boils inside them but they hide their anger and lash out irresponsibly at whatever republican they can.

No I'm not a psychologists and I didn't sleep at a Holiday Inn last night but even I can see they are ALL LOONIES!

“The IAW, for all the talk of partnership with Boeing, put a full size bronze statue of picketers rallying around, with little children, around a burn barrel.”

I’m not a flaming anti-union guy like so many on this forum, but the statue outside the union hall is an outrage. A cool bird, a guy holding a propeller or a wing model, even some guy in an old-time flight suit looking to the sky, anything... But a statue of guys on strike and their kids cavorting around? Give me a f’ng break.

No, but I would have had the same reaction to the Dixie Chicks if they had played at a John Kerry fundraiser or at a premiere for Al Gore’s stupid movie.

The west side of the state of WA is so liberal leftist. Anything demoncRAT goes, regardless of how extreme in the far left field the issue is. I believe it was the election of 2004 that Dem Sen. Cant”budget”well carried only two counties on the west side (King where Seattle is located and I can’t remember the other) while her Rep. opponent then Sen. Slade Gorton carried the rest of the state. He lost! Tells you something about WA politics.

All those liberal Husky fans in Seattle will cry when they discover that Jake Locker is also a levelheaded conservative, pro-family catholic.

I have long been a fan of the NHL's New Jersey Devils.

My respect for that organization increased dramatically after they won their first Stanley Cup in 1995. They were invited to the White House afterwards, and something like only five players on the team actually showed up.

Demonrat hatred is the world’s worst. It is so bad that they share the bed with al Qaeda. They’re allies.

“Both of these courses of action exposed the person/people in question to a lot of grief from their prospective customers.”

You fail to recognize the differences in the two situations. Natalie Maines made her comments during a Dixie Chicks concert. Without any disclaimers to the contrary, it was, in essence, a policy statement of that musical group. In fact, I believe her cohorts in the group backed her up.

Hassleback was acting as an individual, without sanction or cooperation of his team. They are free to issue a statement to the effect that his views are not that of the team or the organization. Had Hassleback voiced an endorsement of Bush during a game or a post game interview, I too would react negatively to his statements. To me, that's the essence of “shut up and sing”.

Now, I don’t really have a problem with the guy never wanting to buy his jersey, however petty and stupid that might be. But someone ending their support for the Seahawks as a whole is akin to a country music fan refusing to listen to ANY act of the Dixie Chicks’ record label. Kind of punishing the wrong people.

Don’t get me started on how I STILL had to pay a $350 car tax AFTER the monorail was cancelled!

Seahawk Quarterback, Matt Hasselbeck is a stand-up guy

No argument here.
