Penn's Gone
[Read the article: Americans more ready for a black president than a woman?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]This just in: mark the snark penn has asked to leave as billary's chief propagandist. Pity. He was doing so well. Guess he wants to spend time with his family. he'll still give advice, according to the NYT. Bad advice. It's what he does. Oh, and on another trivial note, American deaths in Iraq are now at 4017. So, think about McLame and four (or eight) more Bush doctrine years. Then piss and moan. Vote D in November, period.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Amen. there have been numerous studies proving what you say. There was some relatively lightweight tee vee "news" show that did a test in which job candidates, black and white, were given EXACTLY the same resume, dressed exactly the same way, and the black candidates got the door while the white candidates got the job offers. Same thing with housing. Sexism is repugnant and all too prevalent, but it ain't anywhere in the neighborhood with racism. Not close. Real women don't whine. We stop that crap in our family when they're three. Grow the fuggup.

a broad with a broad brush
[Read the article: Americans more ready for a black president than a woman?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Ah, so Americans are ready to "embrace" black leaders? Colonoscopy Powell? Over my dead whie body. Tiger Wood? Best golfer that ever drew breath, but that doesn't make him a leader. And he went to Stanford, which is partly responsible for Cunnilingus Ricearoni (partly in jest, since I'm a Cal man and am contractually obligated to run down The Farm whenever I have the chance). Oprah? Well spoken egomaniac. She's on the front of her own damned magazine EVERY SINGLE FUGGIN ISSUE. What ever happened to the idea we vote for people, not skin or genitalia. Although, in all honesty, there have been genitalia that would merit consideration. I can say no more.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Sorry. I'm still stuck on the old science, with all those boring requirements like sample size. Oh, right: size doesn't matter. How terribly ironic. Now, we're back to "hide de white wimmins". Afterbirth of a Nation. Geez.

aka witless
[Read the article: Americans more ready for a black president than a woman?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]the spurious comparison of Obama to Bush negates any other thing you might blither. Like him or no, Obama is brilliant. Dislike him all you want, but to mention him and dickless cheney and kkkarl rover in the same breath is bullshit of the rankest, lowest odor, uh, order. If I have not already invited you to do so, pardon me: piss off.

Ricearoni
[Read the article: Americans more ready for a black president than a woman?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Please, please nominate that glorified house servant. Then, just play her testimony "Bin Laden likely to attack inside US". She's a goat. Her twofer, both black n' bitch, would be a fitting albatross for McLame. War, all war, all the time. War. Make the election a referendum on the war. Please.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]contempt, as much as I can muster. not for you, but for rice and powell. whores. no, it's not clever. Neither is war. Both were actively responsible. Powell at the UN was whoring of the first order. Rice plays the piano almost as poorly as she interprets foreign policy.

the jesus and mary chain letter
[Read the article: Americans more ready for a black president than a woman?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]sorry to disappoint The Virgin, but I type rapidly, with little emotional or intellectual involvement, don't own a cat, and wear Levi 501s every day. I change under wear once a week if I need to or not. You can save the razor blades for a nice warm bath when Hill goes under. Not under Big Bill- that hasn't happened in 20 years. Bet on it. I visit this forum in the same manner, and with the same level of discourse, I give to the loo. Our septic tank is cleaner than this one, and the turds serve a function once they decompose. De composition is allegedly your strong suit. I'd hate to see the weak one. Oh, yeah: she's your candidate. How poetic, the justice of Penn throwing himself on his rubber sword- or, perhaps, merely his rubber- as the huge Hillary Victory In Pennsylvania approaches like a recurrent venereal disease. She's gonna win. there are a lot of racist tools between Philly and PIttsburgh- rather like a cheesesteak made of rancid meat. But it will be within the marge inavera, and then she'll lose NC by at least ten points. Even you can do that math, Merry. A wash. A washout. Another month closer to the inevitable blow. Job. Hail Merry, full of herself, blessed are you among morons. In the land of the blonde, the woman with the Thesarus is queen.

mary, quite contrary
[Read the article: Americans more ready for a black president than a woman?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]your razor, obviously not your wit, must be for Brazilian reasons. The rest of your scatological rap is adolescent, at best. Tell us mortals how it is that the queen mother will win, after having pissed away an almost unbeatable lead. Her organizational skills? Her ability to surround herself with surpassing surrogates like Gerry Ford Ferraro and Mark Snarkl Penn? Tell us why any progressive activist, having foregone Dodd, Richardson, Biden, Edwards- any of whom has a verifiable resume that makes Blillary's fit in a matchbox- why she's the best we've got. Because she's got a vagina? Because her last name is Clinton? My God, woman, assuming against all evidence that's what you are, why in God's name would we piss away another election for a white bread artificial vanilla candidate? Because she's the first non-male to have a shot at the presidency? Big fucking deal: maggie thatcher; indira ghandi; golda meir. Give me a break, oh Mother of the Holy One. You've got nothing. Every derivative phrase denudes you. Douche bag is too fine a phrase to define you. At least that has a purpose. love heywood.

rubberta, firsy in line
[Read the article: Why Hillary Clinton should be winning]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Idiot. republikan troll. Obama is winning by the only measures that count: delegates, and votes. The rest is straw, much like the interior of your empty cranium. Take you freshman logic, fold it origami style, and insert it in the orifice of your choice. Billary is losing and will continue to lose. Boo fucking hoo.
