  • what's so funny?

    As another pilot and dog owner, I did not find Flying dog particularly funny. If I pulled this kind of stunt I would likely have been rewarded with vomit all over the cockpit. 0 gravity is disconcerting for humans too - just ask 'astronaut' and Senator Orrin Hatch. And Rob's initial and subsequent comments were interesting in a juvenile kind of way. Obviously someone whose lack of vocabulary is exceeded only by his infantile sense of humor.

  • Resignation time

    [Read the article: "Even Richard Nixon knew it was time to resign"]

    The Olbermann rant was long overdue, well thought out, if a bit over the top. and certainly worth the attention of anyone who cares about what is happening to this country. As to the diatribes of "Hornet Driver', someone really needs to get a life. And while he's at it, check into just who Marc Rich's lawyer was. Very interesting.

    I think most of us have a pretty good idea why Mr. Scooter (thanks M. Matalin) won't be going to the slammer thanks to the commutation.

  • confused

    I am more than a little confused. The President has the right to fire U.S. Attorneys at will for any or no reason. But not for political reasons? So when Ms. Taylor, working for Karl Rove, sends an e-mail stating "Bud is lazy - which is why WE got rid of him in the first place" just who is WE, white man? If this isn't the politicizing of DOJ, what would be.

    How discouraging to anyone naive enough to think those in charge should be above all this.
