Original article: The things he said today

Was that really Bush?

I couldn't tell if that was George Bush speaking or a poorly written episode of Beavis and Butthead

Hypocrisy

A note the folks over at World Harvest Church in Canal Winchester, Ohio:

Claiming to be Pro-Life while supporting an administration that has the blood of hundreds of thousands on its hands is hypocrisy of the worst kind.

Pro-Life = All-Life

or at least it should.

Goes both ways

"Just because you wear a brassiere doesn't mean that you're a woman."

Just because you read a script doesn't mean that you're a journalist.

More news, less opinions from the talking heads please. Otherwise just put a sock in it.

Hey Hewitt:

If you're reading this, you'd better start saving your own dollars...

Just sayin'

Original article: Comics fans, grow up!

Showing his ignorance

Dismissing Crumb's work is to ignore an entire segment of the comix genre. Bad, bad man you are Douglas.

The author, in so doing shows his ignorance and bias and the entire piece has a decidedly negative tone to it.

Grow up? I think Mr. Wolk needs to lighten up.

Thank You Mr. Olbermann

Your's is the only newscast that I will watch with any degree of regularity, I prefer to read my news - from sources around the globe.

Needless to say, it is my opinion that tonight you spoke what a great majority of this nation's citizens, indeed this planet's citizens are thinking right now.

Having grown up in the era of Cronkite and Huntley & Brinkley I can honestly say that your's is one of the last true voices of journalism left on US television.

Thank you for your efforts sir.

All these comments

and not a word about Bill's ass sticking out of the pond.

It's a travesty I tell you.

Remember that story about George W. Bush's drunk driving arrest? Oh, you didn't read it? Well...

Original article: Why Iowa matters

The Men Leaning Against the Car Murmuring archetype

For me, growing up in suburban Cleveland, Ohio during the Sixties it was the Grandfathers Puttering in Workshops Murmuring archetype. Sights, smells and sounds I can still recall today.

I miss my Grandfather. And his workshop.

Damage aleardy done?

So, the Trib prints the Klein piece verbatim then issues a correction the next day. My question - how many Trib readers saw flawed article and how many will see the "correction". I say that the damage has already been done. The seeds of false information have already been planted.

Let me know when someone can ID the body cause this thing's dead

A suitable replacement?

Original article: Panic in the pages

The Missing Chapter

The comics code gave us one great gift. Underground comics. The underground movement was a direct result of those self imposed restrictions and gave us the great works of artists like Crumb. I find it interesting that this is not mentioned or discussed here.

Can't stand Hillary?!?

"A lot of guys just can't stand Hillary, and it's the intensity of their irritation with her that disturbs me more than their devotion to Obama."

With all due respect to Ms Traister...

How shallow do you think we are? I have nothing against Hillary. It has nothing to do with not being able to "stand her". It's her campaign style and apparent double talk that turn folks away.

Such a broad brush you paint with. Ma'am.

And I take offense to the remarks about men being "devoted" to Mr. Obama. Devoted? Mr. Obama is charismatic and has a powerful, positive message. I'm attracted to that. He's sincere. He talks to me, not down to me. THAT is what I'm devoted to. You're mistaking respect for "devotion" Ms Traister.

The problem facing the Democrats...

The problem facing the Democrats is that nobody in the mainstream media wants to talk about the past 14 years of Republican failure, and would rather focus on mundane sh!t like flag pins and words your pastor once spoke.

Sen. Obama has proven time and again that he is more than able to stand up for himself when attacked. The upcoming Republican onslaught will be no different. Sen. Obama will put them in their place while showing the rest of the world how a real leader takes care of business.

Confusing "tough" with "asinine"

Those questions weren't tough, they were asinine and irrelevant to the real issues that need to be addressed. Our country is a mess and ABC wants to talk about pins and preachers?!?

Good grief.

Original article: Her deadly wolf program

One way to counteract Palin's genocide of wolves

Support organizations such as Defender Of Wildlife who have specific programs in place to try and help Alaska's wolves and are currently working to have new legislation enacted to give these four pawed victims some much needed protection.

I've been supporting them for years.

Original article: Opus

Peace for some...

Others of us are left in that dark, cold and damp place searching for a bit of comfort. Peace. Sanity. Sobbing pitifully in the night. Left alone.

Goodbye Opus.

We're still here.

That pathetic little man deserves to go down in flames

McCain has run a vile, hateful, ugly campaign. He deserves no less than to see his White House bid and his entire career go down in flames. One last plane wreck for the "maverick".

What a bitter, ugly man he's turned into.

This is April 1st. Right?

Because this whole article is one big, albeit poor joke.

And I just love the editor's choice letter which in part states:

"I think your article is fairly correct except for the slam that only the media and republicans are probing for answers. Many ordinary citizens that voted for Obama are not feeling so sure of their man at this point.

It is impossible to believe that Obama was unaware that Blago was a rogue politician...."

Citizens not sure of "their man"?!? Oh for cryin' out loud.

Original article: Did I just buy an SUV?

Sadly, you fell for it.

Geez, what some ppl won't do to justify their behavior. Crossover" is marketing speak for station wagon on a truck chassis, because the word "station wagon" isn't sexy and turns young buyers off. Congrats, hope you enjoy the part you and your SUV will be playing in helping to kill the planet.
