Original article: Lessons not learned

War Pigs

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?

When did Penn begin penning science fiction and fantasy? Well, he has some seasoned experince at it for as long as he's hacked for Hillary crummy camgaign.

The Clinton's History

Only adds to the ugly aura of their dysfunctional mystery.

Penn

Go back to penning dime store novels, Obama's gonna write another chapter in the Penn state.

Original article: Obama's speech on race

What a travesty of Continuing Controversy

Those who lack wisdom and those how lack grace, will milk any angle in the name of race.

Thursday, March 20, 2008 01:34 PM

Joy of joys

Come on McCain, bring on the noise!

Thursday, March 20, 2008 01:45 PM

Hubris huh?

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

Thursday, March 20, 2008 01:54 PM

If you panders to fear

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

Thursday, March 20, 2008 01:56 PM

It's okay to be haunted

But we will not be taunted.

Hillary Clinton

A has been first lady, and a never will be president.

Thursday, March 20, 2008 02:08 PM

And that's the Deeper Truth

At least on planet earth.

Thursday, March 20, 2008 02:15 PM

The pastor isn't the problem

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.

Thursday, March 20, 2008 02:23 PM

Queen Victoria is rolling in her grave

Candidate Clinton is just rolling her eyes, a little uncomfortably.

Original article: Was Obama's speech enough?

KateTex

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

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?

Sure she deserves a slide, but no way a free ride.

Original article: Michigan revote "dead"

Rules are rules

If we don't work hard to follow 'em, we all end up as fools.

Pyrrho

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.

Original article: Was Obama's speech enough?

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.

Thursday, March 20, 2008 06:19 PM

will it hurt?

Hey, giving birth hurts. We're trying to give birth to something totally new here. There will be hurts, but no surrenders to sad defeatism.

Incendiary Idiots

Who's this Infidel idiot? Some kind holy warrior on behalf of McCain and the Clintons?

Thursday, March 20, 2008 07:48 PM

Okay Pyrrho

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.

Thursday, March 20, 2008 07:58 PM

Live in Jakarta...

For a little while and appreciate how women are held back. Affluent white American women are the most sniveling whiners.

Original article: Bomb, bomb Iran?

If Mayor McCheese McCain

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.

Thursday, March 20, 2008 08:14 PM

Please

What is the point? Bigot equivalency?

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

Thursday, March 20, 2008 08:23 PM

Pyrrho

More power to ya. Take it easy man, I feel ya.

Thursday, March 20, 2008 10:48 PM

Look hard look clear, but all you embrace is fear.

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

Thursday, March 20, 2008 11:37 PM

Vagina monolouges?

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

Original article: Bomb, bomb Iran?

If McCain wants a scrap with the Islamic Republic of Iran

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.

Friday, March 21, 2008 12:17 AM

Deserve it?

That maybe how you swerve it.

Friday, March 21, 2008 02:03 AM

Infidel, you give a bad name to infidels everywhere

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

Former Democratic primary challenger Governor Bill Richardson of New Mexico just thew in his endorced support for Senator Barack Obama. A nice endorcement.

Friday, March 21, 2008 02:41 AM

Walker, you are truely a tragic demagogue

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.

Friday, March 21, 2008 02:58 AM

Hillary and the War Pigs

War pigs carry on, roll 'round in your mud, that wet earth you roll in, swims in our blood.
