I am so happy someone actually reads Donald Justice. Thanks for one of his really good ones.

A little American political history would do you good. Vice presidents are always at a disadvantage running for president, Gore had Nader on his left flank, Bush had a 22 point lead going in and an amazing money machine, and Gore still won the popular vote.

Kerry was running against a sitting president during a time of war. He should have lost by 7 points. The conventional wisdom for demoralized dems is always defeatist and self-loathing.

A ticket like Gore-Obama would be really formidable.

And there is nothing wrong with noting that Paglia is just lazy when it comes to politics or science.

Are you a 'wild-eyed' Edwards hater or one of those tame-ass Edwards haters?

and Minnie Driver is breathtaking

but couldn't we argue that if the 'just right' conditions for life had not emerged, then what we would have are conditions 'just right' for whatever we got?

It sounds like the old argument that it MUST BE some intelligent, ultimate source because NOTHING ELSE makes any sense! These laws are just too darned orderly!

time to start reading a newspaper -- I mean a real one.

it's never America's fault. It couldn't possibly ever be America's fault.

and nowhere is there any moral equivalence drawn. There are just a lot of different f'rinstances.

Do you just hate this guy?

men and women. Broadsheet reports the modest claims. For the 1000sth time, Skeptic and others say 'women studies echo chamber' and 'ohmigod the patriarchy.'

Yeah, I get it. Echo chamber.

There is still time for democrats to vote strategically in the primaries, and still time for Gore to get into the race.

Peer reviewed or not. Maybe you can study all those competitive, sharp-elbowed women you know. The ones you don't date.

In twenty-first century America, people who worry about torture and the rule of law are pro-terrorist and 'sick puppies.'

I'm surprised Elephantman and Anonymous Coward had to point that out to you dumb libs.

Much as a stupid, threadbare caricature is not an argument.

but they are so damned handsome!

Christ, Brightstar, take a breath.

62 consecutive error-less games, five time all star, eight time gold glove.

I guess 9/11 changed everything.

and eating babies, and lying about rape, and writing columns that hurt my feelings.

Senator Craig offered a plea of guilty to a misdemeanor. That is more than just being a closeted homophobe. Now he is a convicted sex offender.

And good luck with the idea that gays will somehow forget they are better off with Democrats.

They are law enforcement officers who covered up a crime (thus committing another crime). If they don't go to prison, then there is no rule of law.

A growing suicide rate in a population is interesting in its own right. And this report notes that the rate of successful suicides for girls is smaller than for boys.

At worst you wrote another bad-faith trolling the Broadsheet post.

Those bullshit comments are right out of central Kansas.

Good to know for the future that there will be no disruption of medical services for women if the licensing applications are completed differently. Thanks for the tip!

to give you a serious reading. But it kept coming back to me that you are a tiny little man venting adolescent rage on the Internet and Al Gore is a Nobel laureate.

Yeah, they sure know funny.

Why are we still being subjected to all of these myths-by-assertion? Is this 'Hardball' with Chris Matthews?

dismissed all of social science. I know that you think it makes you look smart.

They can interview your children without your knowledge or consent and have the authority to temporarily remove children from any home they think is dangerous.

They are usually very experienced, however, with revenge calls and angry neighbor accusations and quickly recognize unfounded calls.

There is no substitute in your situation for legal counsel. You need to consult an attorney immediately.

At least from the link provided it looks like the judge was speaking in general terms. This story was not really worth a mention in Broadsheet.

Otherwise we should start getting used to President Huckabee.

insure young men and women at different rates? Do the actuarial tables reflect different chances for car accidents?

The strategy for responding to attacks is up to the professionals in the campaign as a team. The Kerry decision to go dark during August, eg, was a collective decision.

Obama will be just as good a candidate as any of the top three.

If this is really a high-school student writing this letter then he or she is really well-educated and thoughtful -- already writing much better than the average college student (at least in my classes).

along with 46% of the rest of the electorate.

First, she is perceived as a Northern liberal. Second, what is she going to say to differentiate from McCain on the occupation? Third, can Senator Clinton make it go away by not looking at it --that is -- that half of the electorate is already determined to vote against her no matter who the Republican nominee is? Fourth, what states can she recapture?

I like her. And it makes me sick that every slack-jawed, nephew-goosing hillbilly in Ohio is going to vote twice to make sure she is never president. But there it is. McCain in Ohio by twice the number of Bush in 2004.

the number 2 issue will be Hillary hatred, the number 3 Issue will be the war. I don't think Clinton will hurt down-ticket races, but winning the White House will be a long shot at best.
