  • War Pigs

    [Read the article: Lessons not learned]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Generals gathered in their masses

    Just like witches at black masses

    Evil minds that plot destruction

    Sorcerers of death's construction

    In the fields the bodies burning

    As the war machine keeps turning

  • Shift to Hillary?

  • Hubris huh?

    [Read the article: The GOP attack plan for Barack Obama]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Sure there's some hubris on the Obama side, which I hope will turn to a grounded attack plan against the Republicans soon, but I want to add that the hubris of Clinton has been as classic as any tagedy from the pages of Sophocles

  • If you panders to fear

    And not to hope, then she really is making, that final last grope.

  • The pastor isn't the problem

    [Read the article: Clinton's nondenial on Obama pastor]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    The problem is the little lily white goblins who're setting a big bon fire for Obama. Glad to see that the spouse of "the first black presidet" is showing the true color of her politics.

  • Queen Victoria is rolling in her grave

  • KateTex

    [Read the article: Was Obama's speech enough?]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Continue to let all of that bad karma creep up on you and kick you in your clownish keister. You bring dullness to our days as sing your own praise.

  • Katex

    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    I'm glad you left New Orleans, Louisiana doesn't need you. But here you are back in my homestate, kickin' up hell, totally oblivious, to the hysterical ravings, of your sensational smell. You say you're a jounalist? I say you're a journalist too. A yellow journalist, a liar, a sensationalit, a con, a fake, what other rules of good journalism can squeaky clean Katex break?

  • Fester

    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    I neither host nor heed the harranges of hysterics. If Katex were cool, measured, and calm, her arguments might come across clear - as both reasoned and strong.

  • And Phyrrho

    Please, just where to your come off as painting me "black?" Can you see through your computer? Are you jumped up on crack? My "race" and desciption is generically Caucasian, which means neither black, Pacific islander, or Southeast Asian.

    In none too delicte words this whole Wright situation has become a huge shit sandwich for both Obama and his spporters. We're all taking a bite out of it, but I hope 210 million Americans in this country both black and white, which is also the composition of Obama's campaign, and his supporters, want Americans of every ethnicity and shade of skin, to understand that we are inclusive people, not exclusive people, and reverend Write, his statements seemingly racist or not, are his statements and do not speak for us, Barack Obama or his friends and supporters. You know left from right right, well try to understand Wright from Obama. They aren't synonymous. They are two very different people with two very different views, informed by two different generations and two different experiences.

  • Live in Jakarta...

  • If Mayor McCheese McCain

    [Read the article: Bomb, bomb Iran?]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Thinks Iraq is a quagmire, try Iran, it'll be a mullah driven madhouse, a mile a minute, fanatic fueled, ultra-high octane, descent into hell. And I say, anybody who spoils for it, deserves to burn and be consumed in it.

  • Please

    What is the point? Bigot equivalency?

    If people can't push beyond prejudice, they're just being left behind.

    Some people are just undoubtedly double visioned. Barack Obama. Rev. Wright. Go on. Make the superimposition, what ever helps your prejudices, fears, and superstitions.

  • Vagina monolouges?

    [Read the article: I did a vagina monologue but didn't tell my husband!]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Do the vaginas actually speak on stage? Were they grown in secret mutant laboratories? Egads! Sounds like a B-picture I shouldn't miss.

  • If McCain wants a scrap with the Islamic Republic of Iran

    [Read the article: Bomb, bomb Iran?]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    He'd better have more than his Viet Nam experience, and a half baked plan. Believe me, the road to hell isn't paved with good intentions, it's paved with puffed, bloated, bleeding, dead bodies, that stink up to the stars. And one day if there's any justice at all in this world, Bush is gonna have his nose rubbed in that pile of dead that he dispatched to fulfill his dearly sought American dream.

    Do you wanna go mad dog on the whole Muslim world? You and McCain had better sharpen your swiss army knives and starch your Boy Scout uniforms. It'll be a hot time in the 'ol town if that's your solution to the world's problems and dilemmas. Bombs yes, diplomacy no, it's the hight road to hell, that gears your rabid, road show. They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions, I say the road to hell is stacked tall in stupid people.

  • Speaking of names

  • Walker, you are truely a tragic demagogue

    [Read the article: Will Wright hurt Obama's chances?]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    You're not a democrat, you're a demagogue. Your livid imagination is dark, your arguments ill reasoned, you think that your years, make you seem wise, and smugly well seasoned. You are mearly sickening, a reactionary crank to the core, your lies are base profanities, and your posts, dreadful bores.
