Fuck you, Madden. The "vehement opposition" over the summer was radical astroturfed cockmeat in a teabag.

Olberman was right the fuck on. He was eloquent and persuasive. Your artless second guessing is bullshit. God the fuck dammit I am so sick of liberals backstabbing one another I want to puke. Hey Salon. I am not paying you to hire artless hacks like this bozocakes so he can backstab one of the most sincere and eloquent voices of the people on television. Jesus Christ am I pissed.

Any bill he would ever support cannot be a good thing for America. His approval indicates serious embedded flaws within the wording.

I would rather you guys hired a secret video crew to go tape Beck fucking a goat or beating his wife or whatever in the hell he does for recreation. I do not want a history lesson on the prick, I want dirt, fresh dirt, and the more shocking the better. This rags to rags to riches shit is annoying as hell. Quit giving him free publicity and showing his Fox headshot on the cover of Salon. Go get him on videotape doing something that will sicken his Jesus-loving listeners. He is crazier than a March hare; he's got to be up to something. Catch him with his pants down and and a dick in his mouth and show the video. That's the way to handle the guy. Look, that's what the loonbats are doing to ACORN, why not do the same thing to Beck, and a few other right wing scumbags while you're at it.

Such mocking! Well, here's a lesson for all you little whippersnaps: fashion shits infamy.

No matter how you dress, at some point in the future your pictures are going to look funny and your grandkids are going to laugh at them. The best you can hope for is that some periodic revival of collars the size of the Flying Nun's hat will ensnare your wiseass progeny the same way it got you.

is the finest writer in film criticism today. This was an excellent review of a film I would not have been interested in in a lifetime, but now I want to see it just to meet the intriguingly described Grace Coddington. What a pleasure this review was to read. Great job, Stephanie and Salon. Makes me proud to be a subscriber.

Open carrying a firearm to a public event is not only an attempt to intimidate others who do not happen to be armed, it is also a very effective way to get yourself millions of dollars in free publicity. When you do that the invitations to outgas at length on TV and the Internet just keep on rolling in, don't ya' know. Heck, it even gets your picture posted on Salon multiple times.

While I agree with my fellow liberal gun owners responding here about the despicable antipathy toward Second Amendment guarantees on the part of many people I otherwise agree with, in this instance I am going to have to go with Sirota when it comes to town hall meetings. When you show up with a gun on your hip to one of them simply because you legally can, then you are not being a good citizen, you are being an intimidating jackoff.

No right is absolute, after all. Every right is restricted in some fashion. It is unreasonable to allow crackpots to dominate public meetings by letting them strap on hoglegs while everybody else is unarmed. Any state law that allows such a thing is licensing intimidation and should be ashamed. As far as the idiots actually open carrying to these meetings? They've got a screw loose. And if the Secret Service is letting any of these people anywhere near our President then they should all be fired immediately.

Bad move, Dude. But I'm sure there must be some mistake regarding her not missing you. Everybody knows that insecure, sneaky, emotional panhandlers like yourself are real chick magnets. Why, I'll bet she wakes up every morning in Europe and kisses that ticket home to Papa! Heck, maybe she'll read this article and figure out her darling spouse got the squirts and spilled his guts to the entire Salon readership to boot! Who wouldn't love that?

It's not as bad as it seems. The LW has a degree, post-grad even, and things are always just a little bit rosier when you have that.

Speaking directly to the LW, I think you might have come down with a touch of depression. You need to go to the gym and ride a bike until you are good and winded, then come home and make yourself a delicious salad with a grilled piece of fish and ONE glass of good wine for dinner. Expend some effort on the meal, use only fresh ingredients and make it all from scratch. Savor it. Take a multivitamin. Do this for a week and see how things look.

Look, if Dr. Hyman is on to something he should act like a legitimate scientist and do what they do: write a book and go on Oprah.

I do not care whether Hyman discovered the cure for cancer or a method to magically fill his underpants with gold bars, PBS is NOT the venue for infomercials. The only reason this is happening in the first place is because of that shit-for-brains Ronald Reagan and a long succession of half-wit, laissez-faire-ist appointees to the F.C.C., not to mention a severe erosion of ethics at certain public member stations. A PBS station broadcasting a single-point-of-view infomercial over and over is misusing the public trust. This is a direct contradiction of the PBS charter. I urge Dr. Hyman (if he is a real Doc) to join his peers Ron Popeil, David Oreck, Kevin Trudeau, and Chuck Norris on the Discovery Channel between the hours of twelve and five AM where he belongs.
