  • Hang in there

    [Read the article: Help! I'm a prisoner in a big suburban house!]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Twenty five years ago my home was in the suburbs and I owed twenty thousand more than the house was worth due to a collapse in the real estate market. Now, the same house is considered inner city and it is worth two and a half times what I paid for it and my backyard is one huge vegetable garden with birds and butterflies, bees and an occasional armadillo tearing things up. I wanted to freak back then, but somehow I didn't, and damned if things didn't end up working out just fine on their own. Have a kid or two and you'll look at the world differently. Even McMansions have character after a couple of decades pass.

  • Buy an Orange Traffic Cone

    [Read the article: I'm a condo parking-spot hoarder!]

    And write No Parking on it with a permanent marker. If someone moves it, other than you or your guest, have them towed. Show no mercy. Problem solved.

  • Great

    So not only is John McCain a warmonger so was his pappy and his grandpappy and his great grandpappy. Now that I know that I'll be sure to vote for him. Eight years of a madman just whet my appetite for more. Kill kill kill kill kill. Or, not.

  • Don't believe a word anyone says

    [Read the article: Yet another "3 a.m." ad released]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    They are all inveterate bald faced liars and hypocrites. John McCain was an insane maniac when he was running against an even bigger lying madman, but now he's all better. A military record was something to be denegraded when the deserter was running for a second term against a veteran. Now it is something that demands respect. What this country really needs is none of the above. But McCain is by far the greater of the evils. I take it as proof that there is no God that the scum at the top are still breathing, for surely a just deity would have smite them by now.

  • Confusion is normal at that age.

    [Read the article: McCain gets confused about al-Qaida again]

    If I were 71 years old with a history of cancer I would be just as confused as he is. Of course, if I were 71 years old with a history of cancer I would be enjoying my final days as a retiree and not running for President. If you think he is confused now just wait until the Reaganhiemer's disease progresses a little farther. Honey? Have you seen my ass? I can't find my ass. Yes dear, it's on your shoulders right where it always is.

  • Lieberman is such an ignorant lackey

    [Read the article: Lieberman's unusual take on "the facts"]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    That I can't believe McCain hasn't already picked him as a running mate. What the hell was Al Gore thinking?

  • What I would do.

    [Read the article: My mother-in-law put a curse on us and spat in my husband's face]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    I would tell her that her soul is rotting and the stench is unbearable. I would say that everyone can smell her putrification and that she will soon smell it too. Then I would slip into her house in the middle of the night and throw a three pound package of hamburger behind her stove and stash a few fish fillets in the recesses of her couch. Then I would wait until she begged for forgiveness. About a week ought to do it.

  • They claim to be good Christians

    [Read the article: Who's in charge here?]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    In reality they are all, each and every one of them, cynical athiests. If they truly believed in a judgement day they would be shitting in their pants knowing they will burn forever in the fires of hell, and deservedly so. Their supporters have a reserved space as well...for eternity. One could only hope.

  • So, he's a phoney and a liar?

    [Read the article: McCain's lack of candor on reproductive rights]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    NEWS FLASH, not. Anyone with half a brain has had him pegged for at least a decade. Unfortunately, recent history has proven that more than half of the electorate have less than half of a brain.

  • You're damn right I'm bitter Obama

    [Read the article: "People see him as a centrist"]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    It's not just the people in Pennsylvania either. The Republicans have turned our economy to shit and McCain is part of the problem. Forget the Presidency, get his ass the hell out of the Senate too. What year did he die anyway? I've had enough of brain dead zombies. Time to Move On.

  • I'm Bitter Too Obama

    [Read the article: The rubes and the elites]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    And I live in a major metropolitan area. Anyone who isn't an ultra right wing war profiteer should be as bitter as they have ever been in their lives. Republicans are agents of Satan. Bush and his ancient lap dog "Insane McCain" are Beelzebub incarnate. You're damn right I'm bitter Obama, and so are most true Americans.

  • I wouldn't worry about your Dad.

    [Read the article: I think my dad's too old to vote]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Your Dad being too old to vote is laughable. The Republican candidate being too old to make a sane decision is what I am concerned about, and why isn't the MSM demanding his tax return be made public, TODAY? Or, did he forget to file?

  • They won't let anyone out of the military.

    [Read the article: McCain sides with Bush, opposes new GI Bill]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    They won't let you leave except feet first. Does the Mafia need a GI Bill? Hell no, so why would the government want to provide educational benefits? When the goal is to keep people in the dark, the first order of business is to extinguish the light at the end of the tunnel.

  • Chevron has already adopted McCain's plan.

    [Read the article: Much to be desired from McCainonomics]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    It's called the Tetco Tag. I get a free cup of coffee for every fifty dollars worth of gas I buy. Someone should tell Grandpa "Insane" McCain that a shiny new dime isn't that big of a deal in 2008.

  • If there is a gas tax holiday...

    [Read the article: Much to be desired from McCainonomics]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    it will have to be made permanent or it will be raising taxes, won't it? What a numbskull.

  • McCain is entitled to Social Security

    [Read the article: McCain releases tax returns -- at least, some of them]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Social Security was designed for old feeble men and women. When you are so old that you don't have much time left you can collect it without any penalty. When you are older than 70 and closing out the final chapter of your very, very long old life there is nothing wrong with getting Social Security. My great granny got it when she was really really old and John McCain should get it now that he is really really really old and ancient and almost dead too. Yeah, when I'm old and about to croak because I am so old and feeble minded that I can't remember where I left my ass because I am so old and feeble minded and old, I'll get some too. If it's not all gone when I am old and feeble minded and old like John McCain is. Oh, and did I mention old? And feeble minded, and old?
