"About the Bush Doctrine. a commentator on Contessa Brewer today said he asked many journalists in Washington today about the "Bush Doctrine"....more than half of them never heard of it."

Wow Pegster, that's some real solid data there. Let's glance at it together shall we? An unnamed person on some person's show (Who I'm guessing most people don't know) asked an unknown number of journalists who are also not named, what the Bush Doctrine is. And more than half of this unkown number said they didn't know. It could be that only two people were asked and one did, thus giving you your 50% number. Anyway, nice concrete data.

Contessa Brewer is not an unknown name on an unknown show. It's MSNBC...shows how up to date you are.

That's a joke right? Because I've never heard of a particular MSNBC correspondent I'm not up to date? O.K. whatever. My point, if you reread my post wasn't that she was unknown as much as the journalists were and that this was all speculative conjecture without as much as a hint of authenticity behind the so-called poll. No jounralists named. No number of how many journalists polled. Doesn't pass the smell test.

How does this all tie in with Sarah Palin?

"Don't tell me about earmarks," snorts a borough official. "Because of Palin's ego, she couldn't stand the idea of sharing an emergency dispatch operation with Palmer, which has been Wasilla's town rival ever since her high school basketball days.

This sounds like poorly written fiction? I can't read that without thinking this story veers into full on parody.

I'm not sure why you feel background music is needed to accompany your vlogs, but it's very distracting and unecessary. It was way too loud. You may want to consider lowering it or getting rid of it all together.

Is there an ignore button I can use for this mind numbingly stupid troll? I wouldn't suggest banning anyone, but if Salon is going to allow obvious agitators with nothing but bullshit to throw out there, I think the rest of us should have the opportunity to be able to ignore them.

Yeah, Fox News the paragon of integrity. There's a poll I'm sure isn't skewed at all.

Want to come out of the closet after reading this article? Come on, it will unburden your heavy lying hearts.

And we hate you. Whether or not you get your Messiah into the White House, that does not go away. We will still hate you.

Gad, man - are you drunk or mentally ill?"

If you're a proud supporter of the Mccain ticket you're probably both.

She is really fucking pathetic. What more can you say about it?

That she and McCain were mavericks.

If you read Paglia in that way, you can actually enjoy her utter and total bullshit.

Also, kicking the ball downfield would have eaten up more clock time, thus reducing the possibility of a pass and out with any time left to kick a miracle field goal. Bad play man. Bad play. What a wild game though. There was going to be a goat one or another. Either Elam for missing the earlier field goal which would have sewn up the game or the Bears coach.

Loves her canned responses.

The worst abuse of calling 911 I've seen was when I was working in a store a few years ago, and an elderly woman came in screaming that she had to use our phone to call 911 for a dire emergency. She was literally screaming, and everyone was in a rush to aid her. We gave her the phone and listened as she called 911 to report a bad haircut she had just received at the salon next door. She was breathless about how they totally screwed up her hair, and that they had to come out and arrest the hairstylist. The funny thing is that the police actually came out, but fortunately no arrests were made. Unreal.

Seeing as how guilt by association is a huge game for the Republicans, and adding to that the possibility that Stevens could be re-elected, I would like to see a reporter ask a current Republican senator if he or she would vote to remove the convicted felon from offce. A felon who's conviction had everything to do with corruption involving his office.

What I want to know from every Yes on 8 supporter? What do they think is going to happen if gays can legally marry? What tragedy will befall our nation? Be clear too. I can't figure out why this is a issue. People fall in love in all types of ways, and I don't get why there are those who would deny two people who are in lov,e and want to make a total committment, the chance to legalize their union the way other members of society can?
