    Really? I didn't think it was Nader. I thought it was because Gore and Lieberman sounded like Forrest Gump and Elmer Fudd.

    Good thing he lost too. At least Cheney does War for money, Lieberman does it for the ancient war god of some desert nomads from 4000 years ago.

    If the democrats wanted to win, they wouldn't have nominated Weird Al and Crazy Joe.

    If the Democrats wanted to win, they wouldn't have nominated John "Skull and Bones" Kerry who handed the election to his frat brother that he spent the night in a coffin with.

    If the Democrats wanted to win, they wouldn't try to out Repbulican Republicans with war candidates.

    I'm voting for Nader because I would rather have Romney in the White House than Clinton or Obama.

    Don't blame Nader, blame me and everyone else like me.

    I know, people who don't like fascism or war really just shouldn't vote. We should all just shut up or leave the country. I guess they shouldn't have taught social studies.

    When you vote for war, be sure to enlist so you can visit Iran and Pakistan.

    You think the Republicans will nominate McCain? Romney Huckabee or Huckabee Romney.

    What are the odds of McCain having a "health" problem right before the convention?

    You probably don't know that Obama is a war candidate. Look what they did to McCain when he mentioned Pakistan.

    It helps when you have the corporate mainstream media on your side because you are a shill and puppet for their owners.

    There are honest war candidates and dishonest war candidates.

    Go ahead and place your faith in the dishonest war candidates. All you have to do is enlist.

    Even McCain thinks Obama is to much of a hawk for him. McCain probably realizes that bombing a country that has nuclear weapons is not something that is reasonable to do. When McCain is smarter than Obama, might you think for a moment that someone is conning you?

    Democrats would never do that, would they?

    Special thanks to the Clintons for helping Walmart and China destroy our manufacturing capability and wreck the ecomony just as much as the war has. Thanks to Bush for borrowing the money that we gave to China because we think the commies run things better than us and we really would like to be in debt to them and have our grandchildren in debt to them too.

    Like the strip says, we are too stupid to think about anything other than sex or color.

    LET'S GET ANOTHER WAR ON!!!!

    Vote WAR! because in your heart, you know you really like for innocent cilivians get blown up, shot and dismembered - just don't put them on my tv.

  • Screw the Dems.

    They do not want my vote. I don't want to vote for McCain or Romney.

    If the Dems want Nader's vote, Impeach Bush and Cheney and then I will vote for one. As long as the republicans and democrats are partners in crime they will only get votes from suckers and morons who believe their lies.

    Like Nader said, Harry Truman proposed universal healthcare and if nothing has happened in over 50 years, then why should we believe that NOW clinton and obama are going to fix things - right after we invade and pacify Iran and Pakistan.

    Hey, doesn't Venezuela have OUR oil??? We better take care of our OIL before we worry about health care.

    They sold us out, they sell us out, they assure us that they are going to sell us pout some more and they not only want our votes, but they are indignant and hostile if we want to vote for nader.

    but it's ok to bomb children and murder foreign leaders.

    i reinvented the government for mr. gore and i consider mr. bush to be the lesser of the two evils. i had to threaten them with blowing the whistle on the whole operation just to get paid for my last months work.

    i worked on the impeach reagan bush campaign too, our funds were seized by the feds so we were put out of business.

    the government is a criminal operation and choosing between the candidates is like choosing who you want to rob you and beat you up. it really doesn't matter what gender, race or party.

    go ahead and vote for war, but if you really think that obama or clinton is going to be a "peace" president then by all means, put your life where your mouth is and join the army.

    how do you tell when a politician is lying?

    their lips are moving.

    nader is no politician.

  • National Trolling

    [Read the article: The Obama photo flap]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    This whole thing is stupid and the primary purpose is just to rub stupid all over the place because there is nothing like a whole lot of stupid to distract people from the real issues which no one wishes to address because they figure everyone is too stupid to understand anyway and by this epoch in the history of our nation, they may well be right.

    If this issue or the reporting is important to you -- STUPID.

    A con man will never tell you that you are stupid, they will tell you how smart you are.

    Matt Drudge is a WHAT???

    How do you turn trolling into a fancy word like journalism?

    Oh! I see! It is much easier to turn the word journalism into the word trolling.

    A whole lot of stupid going on.

  • thank you for saying racism is OK!

    Dear Scott,

    Ralph is only talking down to you if you are a moron.

    BTW - Hillary, Barack and John have also done nothing on those issues either and they are taking paychecks to do that. Who can blame them with all that money on the side?
