  • Clinton vs McCain

    [Read the article: McCain: Clinton would "surrender" in Iraq]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    I would actually have to go with Walnuts over The Red Queen. I mean no matter who gets elected, we will still be ruled by the corporate lobbists. So why not just go all in and let McCain nuke the world? It sure would make for good TeeVee.

  • Why catch him?

    [Read the article: Mission unaccomplished]

    He's the bestest most greatest boogy-man there is! The longer he stays at large, the more civil liberties we lose. The more civil liberties we lose, the more power the Unitary Executive gets. More power=more money. You really gotta hand it to these Republicans, they don't give a rat's ass HOW many human beings they have to kill, they will GET their money. I just wonder how much longer the idiot troops will buy into this BS. They're sacrificing their lives so that Bush and Cheney and all thier buds can make their warbucks. What a bunch of morons. I swear, is there something the military gives these guys that makes them so stupid? I just gotta laugh.

  • 'Honest' is the key word

    [Read the article: Barack Obama agrees with me]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    What with the lies told by Bill and the deceptions of Hillary on her voting record, they should make a fine couple to uphold George W. Bushs legacy. The more lies, the more votes. The more corporte sponsorship, the more votes. The more deceptive, the more votes. Billary is a shoe-in. I just wonder if Bill will sit on Hillary's lap in the oval office or will Hillary sit on Bill's?

  • How low can she go?

    [Read the article: Clinton: I'll take those delegates now, thanks]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Maybe she's been attacked by Republicans for so long that she has finally become one. I'm REALLY starting to STRONGLY dislike the Clintons, Chelsea included. These people have absolutely NO shame or sense of fair play. Bill's outright lies about Obama do the nation no favors. He is proving that indeed, there is no difference between the two parties. As Thor is my witness, if Billary gets the Dem nom, I'm going Republican. Better to be raped by an enemy than a friend.

  • Really? Politico?

    [Read the article: A farewell note]

    So you've decided to report lies and half-truths? So you've decided to report for the Republican Party? How nice. I'm sure they will shower you with treasure and riches. Just know that as you are writing the glowing stories of heroic Republicans standing up for business against the terrorist-loving Democrats that your friends and readers back at Salon are trying to help the people of this country and not trying to steal them blind. I guess you should have defected a long time ago. Have a good life in WingNut City. Traitor.

  • Teaching to a GOP test

    [Read the article: We're failing our kids]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    So we let the Republicans write the test. Then we let the Republicans sell the material to the schools. Then we let the Republicans decide who passes. NCLB is not an educational tool, it is an indoctrination into neoconservatism. So glad you like George W. Bush, Garrison. Soon, you'll have a whole country full of George W. Bushs. I hope that will make you very happy.

  • He's the Decider

    [Read the article: Mukasey's radical worldview is now the norm]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    And if he DECIDES to leave office, he will. I actually hope he decides to stay president. Or maybe just hand the reins to Cheney or hell, Jed. Why not? Why not let Laura be president? As someone who sees the writing on the wall, I'm switching to McCain. If this country is goin' down, let's go down in a ball of fire with nukes goin' off and riots in the streets and Blackwater just mowin' down the populace with tanks and flame throwers. Let's show the world how real conservatives destroy a planet! Come on, who's with me??

  • Support the Troops

    [Read the article: No surprise: Troop cuts in Iraq may halt in summer]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Keep 'em in Iraq forever.

  • McCain RULES!!!

    [Read the article: John McCain's endless war]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Look, what's America all about? Profit, right? Capitalism, right? Well what's more profitable than a war? Nothing! Halliburton alone has made BILLIONS off this war. So what Senator McCain is saying is that if you're against the war, you're against people making an honest profit. Being against profit is unAmerican and should be discouraged to say the least. Senator McCain wants what is best for the Republican party and to a lesser extent what is best for America. Profit is best for Republicans and profit is best for America. To NOT support a hero like John McCain is treasonous. So if all you can remember is a bumpersticker, then I have one for you:

    WAR=PROFIT - SUPPORT THE TROOPS - KEEP 'EM IN IRAQ FOREVER. John McCain supports the troops. He will make sure they stay in Iraq until they finish the job they have been given. He will support the troops until it is not profitable to do so. Then and only then can we bring them home.

  • Just another indication

    [Read the article: Two bombs explode in Baghdad; worst attack there in months]

    that THE SURGE IS WORKING.

  • Democrats?

    [Read the article: Republicans have become the credibility-free party]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    I think it should be obvious to anyone with a brain that to be this weak and ineffective, the Democrats would have to be.....what? I'll tell you what. Three words. IN. ON. IT. They are in on the crime, the graft, the corruption, the war profiteering, the hate of minorities and immigrants, everything. Why else would Harry Reid try his best moves to get Bush exactly what he wants ON EVERY ISSUE THAT COMES BEFORE THE SENATE??? Face it, folks, we won't have a functioning democraticly run government until we physically go to capitol hill and dispose of the current Democratic leadership. This time is fast approaching when Americans will have to decide whose side they are on, America's or the two dysfunctional American political parties.
