How is it that this extremely important article gets barely a whisper of feedback on Salon? There is no issue more important to the future of the Internet and freedom itself than net neutrality!

So if the Democrats don't stand for anything, what is all this...? http://www.democrats.org/agenda.html

What you are really saying is that unless the Democrats act like Republicans and talk in Fascist lockstep with 1 voice, 1 talking point list, 1 "Vision for America", they cannot win?

So Warren, tell me how far back claims of real estate should go? What is your arbitrary cutoff date?

As far as I can tell, it is an uncontested fact of history that the ancient Kingdom of Israel (and Judea, but irrelevent to the dicussion since it was also Jewish) was setup more or less where the modern State of Israel is currently.

Are you saying that the Arabs who lived in Palestine 70 years ago have a greater claim to the land?

I don't get it, what is the point you are trying to make Ed?

Is either alchohol or nicotine a performance-enhancing drug? I don't think people would care at all if MLB players were using pot or cocaine (except for the PR and "children"/role-model issues) since they do not effect statistics. It is the fact that steroids/HGH are skewing the game that is what the real point is of all this.

Uhm, Salon forgot to secure my permission to publish this article. Can't be blamed for turning off the Christians, now can I?

Those idiots are idiots.

There is also the fact that Grey's Anatomy is the exact opposite of Battlestar Galactica in that it doesn't make you think at all... in the words of my fiance last night, GA is "brain jello" good for a watch before bedtime.

Any time I want to tease her about watching GA, I whip out the "code black, a bomb in the body" moment. Can TV get much worse than that?

It wasn't any evangelicals that flipped that allowed the Democrats take Congress, it was the overwhelming percentage of Independents that did it.

Please do not give credit where credit is NOT due. The far religious right has no business expecting any "bipartisanship" out of Democrats, not after helping to ruin the country for 6 years while we yelled "WTF!!!".

Thank you Howard! You are the reason I first gave a political donation (3, to your campaign of course), and you are also the reason I am a proud holder of a Democracy Bond.

Keep up the great work. And if you ever decide to run again for president, you have my vote!

Forget Doraville... drive about 7 miles up Peachtree (heh) Industrial into Duluth, GA. Duluth is as red as can be.

Sure, TV is an escape.. but does it have to be utterly rediculous too? ;)

To the shmuck without the courage to leave his own name, so what if Rhode Island and New Hampshire don't border eachother? It isn't stopping Gaza and the West Bank from eventually becoming the Palestinian state...

Where is Dean in your list? Did he not get a big boost from the election, just like Reid, Pelosi, etc?

Heroes!

Could this be the stupidest thing we have ever heard from a Bushie? I think it might... aren't all government employees fingerprinted when they are hired? And if not, why not?

We do have a sense of humor joe... and that sense isn't picking up the sarcasm. Try again.

When I was a kid, my grandfather would fine me $0.25 every time I said "I don't know". I think it is time that Congress fined/punished any Administration official any time they say "I don't remember".

Can the Senate somehow revoke their advice and consent on an Executive nominee and get him fired? I don't think so...

Would be nice though, eh?

Obviously the Constitution gives Congress the authority to declare war (which in the case of Iraq never happened btw), but does it also give Congress authority to "declare peace"? How does one declare peace anyway? ;)

You do know that Gene Roddenberry is dead right?

Also, everyone knows dilithium crystals help facilitate a matter/anti-matter reaction to create energy... nothing to do with fission. Sheesh.

... or fusion as you specified in your letter. :P

... that Karl Rove would be so thin-skinned, did anyone else? I don't know what was said in the exchange, but how a couple environmentalists insult Rove so much he had to whine about it?

What exactly is your point?

Did anyone hear believe there was only that one meeting with the GSA?

WTF does that mean, Magical Jews? You are going to blame the Jews for Iraq when it was some psycho Christian belief in the Rapture (and oil of course) as to why we are there?

I thought that was in John Grisham's "The Rainmaker".

Bring back in the draft in the United States. It is the only way for everyone to feel the pain of war, not just the poor and minorities of this country.

... does that stop the Congress from sending him the same bill again, or one very similar with pull-out provisions?

Funny how Mansfield doesn't use the more obvious term for one-man monarchial rule, king. I guess he could be referring to Machiavelli, but if Mansfield was really being honest he would call what he is describing a king (monarch at least).

Is it because the word king would stir the dumb people of America out of their stupor and make them realize what is going on?

Isn't the Washington Post owned by Rupert Murdoch now, or am I finally losing my mind?

LET Tony Snow twist words, use whatever definition he sees fit to use for whatever words he spews.

The problem is that the press goes along with it! If the White House Press Corp wasn't a bunch of stenographers this would not be a problem, instead it would show how deceiptful the White House really is.
