What's this, my name is being taken in vain again?

First of all, I refuse to take a backseat to anybody on IQ level, especially the lefties who display neither the brains nor the balls to even present rational points of view (or usually even irrational ones). You shouldn't either, Sheepshead. As I sort of said earlier, after two days of duking it out with aynrand and the other two elitist brand conservatives, I feel like I've had a good workout. On the other hand, getting into an argument with our forum leftists doesn't even raise a sweat. A sarcastic comment or two, and they run and hide.

As I said over in the Packer half of the forum, never say never, but I try not to say anything too bad about wrongheaded forum members. Public figures, on the other hand, are fair game, and I'll call a flaming leftist America-hating bastard a flaming America-hating bastard anytime I damn well please.

I'm not familiar with Garafalo (appearance, anyway). Is she the hot reddish brown haired one who seems to be exhibiting Jack Bauer tendencies? Or is she the mousy one with glasses who was matching wits with Chloe?

Examining McDaniel's data, you should first notice that even the largest difference between states’ mean IQ—the 10.2 points between Massachusetts and Mississippi—is actually not at all enormous.

I would agree, and you can hate on Tex all you want. I took issue with you saying that generally blue states have residents with much higher IQs. Thus, you are implicitly saying that Conservatives are less intelligent than Liberals. You'll notice that my home state, North Dakota, is one of the yellow states.

It is no wonder in general the blue states have residents with the much higher IQ's hanging out, Tex drives it home everyday on this forum A DUH!

Gee, thanks for giving people permission to hate on me. I love you too.

The second (and real) map obviously makes more sense. The thing that stood out the most as wrong about the first chart was Utah. I have yet to meet a stupid Mormon, and they had Utah as dead last.

The correct chart still has the south and Bush states in general mostly lower, and that seems accurate. Common sense, after all, doesn't necessarily correlate with IQ.

As for me, despite the name, I'm a Wisconsin boy at heart and in my roots.

BTW, both the phony chart and the real one could be construed in a pretty racist way if a person was of a mind to. Clearly, the whitest states are the highest level and the ones with the most blacks and hispanics are down at the bottom. I guess that just shows that the testing is biased, right libs?

I hope Jack Bauer kicks Tex's ass for bringing the political banter into this thread.

I have a channel on my U-Verse lineup that I never noticed before, it's called the Crime and Investigation Network (CI) and they are currently airing Day 5 at night now. IMO, the best season ever.

I like how this season started, much better than last IMO.

Who are you working for!?

I brought politics into this thread? Oh yeah, I guess I did--sort of.

Blame the writers of the show. There has always been a strong element of politics in it--that's a large part of what makes it interesting. This year, however, there was a not too subtle change--and based on the posts, I wasn't the only one to notice it.

Things have gotten off track in the thread, though. I think you have to blame somebody else for that.

the RR is polluted with political manure; lets get this thread back to enjoyment

Seeing MM is taking his sweet time for a defensive coordinator it's clear he's waiting for a Jimmy Johnson attacking like blitz scheme

Why not hire the ideal attacker

Jack Bauer for Defensive Coordinator

Jack Bauer; Army of One

Jack Bauer would use a one man pass rush and drop everybody else into coverage. Sounds like a plan to me.

Thoughts??

I like where this season is headed so far.

[BallHawk]

Ignoring how technologically unrealistic some of the stuff is this season, so far the season is pretty good. Bill, Tony, Chloe, and Jack are pretty great.

[sheepshead]

I didnt notice Renees hooters until she was running around this week. Think Jack Taps that sometime?
