Elizabeth
[Read the article: The Salon Interview: Elizabeth Edwards]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]If Elizabeth Edwards is saying Hillary is acting "like a man"..that's as bad as Ann Coulter calling John Edwards a faggot.
Enough with the stereotypes all ready!! Ms. Clinton is a Senator for crying out loud. Is she supposed to talk about how to get out grass stains? This country seriously needs to grow up and stop the name calling.

What does this say to the kids?
[Read the article: When Barry passes Hank]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I cannot root for a cheater. Look at all the kids in High School now taking roids. Look at the wrestlers...roid rage...murder....nope I'm sorry. Hank Aaron is the Home Run King and that's it. We can't just give someone a pass because others are doing it too.
Don't we tell our children "Would you jump off a bridge if your friends did too?". Bonds and many others cheat and even if it's prevalent doesn't mean people shouldn't stand up and say "enough, we're not giving out praise to cheaters".

Jealousy is a waste of time
[Read the article: My sister is a famous designer -- and I'm not!]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I lost my beautiful sister who was everything I wished I could be. I wasn't jealous of her though, I was proud. Everything she did I'd look at in awe and feel the love I had for her shine. Don't waste your time with jealousy, it does no one any good.
Also, art is subjective. :D

Tired of the slander
[Read the article: How Hillary could tank]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Hillary is the best candidate, but she does have strikes against her. She's a woman, which is probably the biggest of all.
We know the republican party is going to come out dirty, like with the Swift Boat slander, which was untrue. But they throw the crap on the wall and know that some of it will stick.
There have been Hillary haters since she was first lady. I've asked some why they hate her so much. They'll say she's a b*tch...good argument dudes! They'll say she is too ambitious...now when did that become a bad thing, unless you're a woman.
I can't see voting for Obama or Edwards with their pie in the sky thinking and bulls*it. I'd go with Biden, but he's not running very well right now. I'd even pick McCain, even though I don't totally agree with him either, but he isn't running very well either.
Too bad the American public...not all...don't vote for issues but because of what they read and hear in tabloid journalism. I guess it's always been this way, we rarely vote for the brightest candidate.

M&M showed NO compassion towards the little girls.
[Read the article: Ellen, the dog bullies and me]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Ellen was very sincere and I don't think she wanted to breakdown in front of the world like she did, but it happened. I think you're right that it was caused by upsetment and frustration.
There is no justification for those women to come in commando style and take that little pup away from that family. There was no compassion shown towards those little girls who loved the puppy.
I've had a dog in my life since the day I was born. Actually 11 and 12 year olds are probably the perfect age to help raise a dog. 14 year olds are usually more into their social lives, not that they should be excluded.
M&M totally botched this one and I'm sure they'll now file a huge lawsuit against Ellen. Maybe she should have told the shelter, but she didn't realize she had to. She admitted SHE made a mistake and that it shouldn't have affected the family who took Iggy in.

We're talking about children here.
[Read the article: Don't think of a sick child]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]It's outrageous! I'm sick of hearing how now the middle class is going to abuse the system if they pass this bill. What a slap in the face to the middle class. We're like the good kids in the family, who always follow the rules and try to do the right thing. There are too many stories of families being banckrupted and losing their homes because they don't have the funds to pay for their children's healthcare.
Tax ciggarettes, tax liguor, tax the lotto....most of us would be happy to pay the taxes for such a good cause. We ARE suppose to be a compassionate country and yet I don't see that compassion for our own children. The powers that be use American and patriotism, but they may as well be pledging allegiance to a flag with insurance company logos.

She's the best out there.
[Read the article: Is Hillary running away with the race?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The polls reflect what the American people want. The electoral college and these strange small state primaries reflect what went wrong with voting. Each vote doesn't count.
Still with all the happy Hilary haters, I'm behind her all the way. I haven't heard an anti-Hilary person who hasn't gotten their information on her from FOX "news" programs or Ann Coulter. :D

It's all just ideology and ideology when applied always fails
[Read the article: Is a new conservatism possible?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The conservatives didn't really stay true to themselves. They allowed things like FOX "News" define them. I think true conservatives are shocked by what Rush Limbaugh says. Being a conservative was never about prejudice and stupidity. Some sunk to the lowest common denominator and that's what you get. The right is wrong.

Not gonna happen?
[Read the article: Report: Obama says no to Clinton-Obama]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]He isn't worthy of the Vice Presidency. He's full of it.

Uh huh
[Read the article: We're prejudiced, now what?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]What did you expect from a pervert who likes to call up female employees with disgusting language. I still can't believe he's still on the air. I guess it's because so many people are prejudice? or morons?

:D
[Read the article: We're prejudiced, now what?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]*sings: What he world needs now is love sweet loveeeeee...no not just for some but for everyone of us* Thank you. :D

Wimps
[Read the article: The era of Hillary begins]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Edwards and Obama couldn't get the votes on their own so they went negative. They're both too weak and between them don't have enough experience. Plus, they're not really saying anything, although Obama is articulate..but is that enough? Clinton/Richardson? Sounds good. :D
It seems all the nonsense out there comes from the corporate owned press. Where are the legitimate journalist? Have they gone they way of the dinosaurs? I'm hoping that most Americans aren't falling for the fake "journalist" out there, and get as mad as I do when words like socialist, fascist and lesbian are thrown around. They like to throw a lot of sh*t at the wall and see how much sticks, but it's still sh*t.
