Has Juan really become just a "toady?"

I haven't seen too much of Fox lately (and my life is better for it), but I thought Juan Williams was a moderate voice in their wilderness of right wing hacks. Isn't it a little strong to refer to him as a toady? I know he is still doing good work at NPR.

Original article: Elephant man detective!

he's not an amimal and this isn't a good comedy sketch

promising premise, decent production value, but poor execution = unfunny clip. i have to agree with those who vote for dropping them from your space - MOUS hardly qualifies as premium content.

Original article: Sexual healing

rings true

Why all the early hostility towards this piece? As a new father who shared many of the same experiences with my wife in our own post-baby sex life, Ms. Williams speaks the truth and it is comforting to know that we aren't alone. I would guess that most of the negative response is from folks who are like many of my friends without kids who now refer to us as "breeders" (always seems to be used with a hint of judgement - perhaps another topic the author could address in a future piece).

George Will at ABC

had the same analysis of the dems winning the House as "being a normal occurrence" in a midterm election and went on to give the viewer a lesson about the founding fathers intentions of the Senate being the temperant balance to the House, blah, blah, blah. Not sure what he would say today regarding the possible Dem control of the Senate too, but I'm sure he could pontificate in the way only he can as to how this too was forseen by the wise FF's (and himself).

Glitches with ordering

I intended to pay 7 US, which would be somewhere around middle ground for the product at emusic and itunes, but the final confirmation page wasn't supported in Safari and having received no email confirmation, I can't be certain my order went through. I agree with other posts about the clunkiness of the order page, but support, in theory, the effort of "direct to consumer" delivery, which is why I attempted to order in the first place (that, and Radiohead is one of the few bands worth buying without reading a review or hearing a track).
