  i read this column daily. i read media matters. i read the indypendent. i haven't subscribed to cable for 3 years now because the news is such a sham.

  sometimes out of frustration i write to cnn online and ask them things like - why is the bbc covering our economy better than you? sometimes i write my elected representatives.

  i have to admit, i actually prefer drudge to any of the major news sources because at this point i think drudge is actually BETTER than them. (depressing thought).

  i hope things change. i really do. i would love to know any proactive steps others are taking to try to change the establishment and open people's eyes.

  you are a douchebag. i live in west virginia. you BETTER BELIEVE people are bitter and upset that the government does JACK SHIT for them.

  What Obama said is 100% true and the MSM is missing the point. Normal Americans, however, are not.

  the border with canada is ridiculous to cross. our dept of homeland security is THE RUDEST "security" force i have encountered in travelling through any civilized nation. it is completely unreal how much unchecked power they have and they wield with impunity.

  the only thing i didnt like about this article is how it made me seethe with memories of those fucking assholes.

  we live in a police state - just take a drive to canada and back and you will experience it.

• USA is so bike unfriendly...

  [Read the article: Where have all the bicycles gone?]
  [Read more letters about this article: Here]

  And it sucks...

  I don't even own a bike but its because biking in rural USA is absurd.

  I often hear a lot of people talk about how it would not be possible to do in USA what they do in Europe. Their argument is that countries like the Netherlands are flat and therefore more conducive to biking. They say USA could never have bike paths everywhere because of terrain. This is total crapola. I was visiting a friend in Mindelheim, Germany, which is a rural and not completely flat part of the country (Unterallgäu). There are bike paths EVERYWHERE. They go through farm fields, parks, along the streets. It's amazing and it made riding a bicycle a pleasure.

  Not to mention the train system (Die Bahn), kicks Amtrack's sorry ass.

  And the climate argument? Montreal and Quebec in general is LIGHTYEARS ahead of any city in the USA as far as biking goes.

  How awesome is their green route - one of the best bike routes in the WORLD: http://www.routeverte.com/ang/

  Yeah so it can be done if cities did any planning at all. I agree with you here Leonard. It is SO frustrating. ARGHGH.

• you are probably right that it doesnt matter...

  [Read the article: Rep. Kucinich introduces articles of impeachment]

  But the thing that seems so unfair is if there was a Democrat in the oval office, and a fringe far right republican was presenting articles of impeachment for even the most ridiculous reasons, it would be HUGE news!

• nothing subtle about this comic

  It's not good satire. It's not subtle. I am pretty sure SNL could have pulled something like this off but the New Yorker gets a big fat fail!

  Code pink acts like this because they want to. It's their life and that's how they want to live it.

  Get off your ass if you have a problem with it and "start your own scene."
