I don't think Santorum likes the way that history will remember him: Commentary comparing homosexuality to bestiality, and the Dan Savage definition of santorum.

So he is doing anything he can to get his name associated with something else. This stratagem probaly won't achieve that result.

I don't feel like I have been mutilated. I don't feel like I am "missing" anything. And sex for me is extremely pleasurable.

So I have no complaints about my circumcised penis.

I guess it is possible that I could do some research and learn something that would make me care as much as some of the people who post here seem to care. But I don't have any motivation to do so. Perhaps having a son would provide such motivation. But offspring are unlikely.

My personal experiences, coupled with the tone of the arguments on the topic that always appear in this forum, make it hard for me to take any of the arguments seriously. Especially when the resident ranter takes such a strong position.

You write:

(reportedly, Obama did not actually promise to do so, but said he would consider it)

I have watched the video. That is exactly what Obama said. O'Reilly is lying.

Why don't you just call the lie a lie?

We would never let a one-and-a-half-term governor from a weak-governor state become president. Especially if his prior history was a long list of failed businesses.

To even consider that is AMAZING.

If every uncontested shot were made, then automatically giving the fouled player the points might make sense. But since players sometimes miss even uncontested layups and dunks, players should be required to hit their foul shots.

As far as changing the game at the end goes, hockey, soccer, and college football all use variants of the game as tie-breakers. So using a different ruleset at the end is not as unreasonable as some may think.

But actually, all this discussion really accomplishes is to demonstrate the superiority of baseball as a sport. While I have heard a pundit describe baseball's tiebreaker thusly: "The only thing worse than the tenth inning is the eleventh inning," I prefer to think of it as another pundit describes it: "Free baseball!"

Pitchers and catchers report in less than a week! Woohoo!!!!

I wasn't using those examples of other sports to try and convince anyone that changing the rules at the end is a good idea. I was just trying to demonstrate that such changes are not universally unacceptable. That doesn't mean that I advocate or accept them.

My personal opinion is that there is no justification for deciding a game using a different set of rules for the end of the game, either before the end of the regulation game or after in the case of a tie. Settling ties by shootouts or sudden death is, in my opinion, a ridiculous method that should not be used under any circumstances.

He is part owner and highly involved with the Corpus Christie Hooks and the Round Rock Express (note the name). Does he continue with his involvement, or does he put it all in a blind trust, or does he just turn it all over to his sons?

When a car is pimped out, it means you are adding a cool paint job and nice wheels as radical exhaust, etc.

So if Chelsea Clinton is being pimped out, does that mean she is getting cosmetic surgery and a froo-froo hairdo and super-stylish clothes?

Again Salon demonstrates a failure to understand the purpose of video.

Video is for things that need a visual component. Simple as that. Things that are enhanced by video, or incomplete without video.

Some guy just talking would be a much better presentation in text. Especially if the person talking is not a very good speaker.

Graham Hill may or may not have important things to say. I don't know. I couldn't stand watching his inept presentation, and clicked it off about a third of the way through. I would like a chance to read his words. I am not going to suffer through his amateurish presentation.

Please, Salon, figure out what should be presented as video and what should be presented as text*. Stop presenting things as video just for the novelty of it.

*Hint: About 90% of what you currently present as video would be much better as text.

So, being a spy is like working in the inner ear canal?

Creating this comic must be like working in the intestines. It is small, dark, and there is little air. It is full of noisome odors. And the end product is worthy of nothing more than a flush, as soon as possible.

Dunno how my appreciation of the video is altered by plodding through the strip for months, but that was fantastic.

Come on, people, doesn't the video make the strip worth reading?

I gotta say yes it does.

May this portend a change towards fairness in all parts of our society.

I find the comment very weak, and embarrassing. I would hope for a much higher standard of discourse from a person who is trying to be president.

But it is not nearly as weak or embarrassing as those who are trying to paint it as a sexist comment.
