Original article: Quote of the day

Correct, DC

The problems of most vice crimes could be reduced significantly with legalization.

Monday, March 17, 2008 09:06 PM

Please lolcait and others

We already know that Clinton and McCain have no shortcomings and that a man lucky enough to be half-black in America should show his gratitude by becoming an Episcopalian. Please add something new to the discussion.

Original article: The lost "Profit"

This one looks good

The first serial 'premise' show I remember taking off was the 1995 Murder One. I am sure it was a Bocchco production.

Sunday, March 23, 2008 08:07 PM

Well, Shawn

Obama will probably lose to McCain. Clinton CERTAINLY would have lost to McCain, but we don't have to worry about that now. That's just plain fact.

Monday, March 24, 2008 03:58 PM

Mr. Manjoo

That would be 'not I,' (as in) it would not be I that would go after you for obsessive behavior.

Limbaugh Democrats

It only adds to the bandwagon effect, which in Pennsylvania and everywhere else has been both anti-Republican and pro-Democrat. mcCain will be a formidable candidate anyway, so it is stupid for Republicans to sign up in hopes of changing the outcome. They do more harm to their cause.

But with Hillary at 49% disapproval and 44% trustworthy in the polls she is a guaranteed loser to McCain (although I will vote for her enthusiastically).

There is a good chance Obama can overcome his bad week and still be competitive.

So

we learned nothing from Mary Shelly?

Thursday, March 27, 2008 12:41 AM

I certainly did not learn how to spell

from Mary Shelley

Friday, March 28, 2008 11:09 AM

At this point

shouldn't Clinton's closest friends and advisers be urging her to work on her Senate legacy? In ten more days everyone in North America is going to hate her.

Friday, March 28, 2008 12:05 PM

True WES

But he loses by a smaller margin than Clinton and doesn't hurt down-ticket races.

Friday, March 28, 2008 12:10 PM

Good try, Billcap

But her negatives continue to go up (weren't we promised that couldn't happen, that she had been "vetted" or something)? If Clinton continues much longer she will be despised -- I know this and I voted for her.

Now, who did Wright torture again?

Oh, that's right, he just said some things. Please Elephantman, choose the side of reason and morality before it is too late for you.

Sending prayers up for you,

Isn't this just a flame war?

89 comments? Wake me up for the ceasefire.

Original article: John McCain's bad week

If these fringe and trivial issues

trump prosperity and war it will be the first time ever in an American election.

Friday, April 18, 2008 08:09 AM

Wes, Watch 'The Bridge on the River Kwai'

You are Nicholson. Clinton is the bridge.

Friday, April 25, 2008 09:48 PM

That white girl from Texas

is one pissed-off bigot.

Thursday, May 1, 2008 09:07 AM

Well CJ

Now we know you don't understand this.

Friday, May 2, 2008 11:50 AM

Can we see more quick updates like these

vis Clinton and Obama? Then all the snarling can take place over some real issues instead of this bullshit he-is-a-clueless-phony and she-is-a-pandering-warmonger.

Monday, May 5, 2008 06:27 PM

The 527's

an aim at either of them -- any idea that one or the other is more electable in the general is just speculation. Since we are all speculating anyway -- if rules and credentials are manipulated and it even APPEARS that Clinton stole the nomination then many down ticket races will go to Republicans that shouldn't have. Obama is the guy who is registering new voters for the dems.

Monday, May 5, 2008 06:35 PM

Arrrrrrrrgggghhhh!

You millions of cult-worshipping morons are letting this clueless phony steal the nomination!

Okay, now the basics of the discussion are all covered.

Tuesday, May 6, 2008 03:45 PM

Shawn

No doubt you intended the ironic bigotry in that post of yours.

Tuesday, May 6, 2008 09:02 PM

I need to feel your warm embrace?

Were they fucking in the nineteenth century?

If you didn't laugh at Austen Powers

Original article: NARAL endorses Obama

A nice reminder

of what one will be voting for (overturning Roe) if one refuses to vote for the democratic nominee (whomever he is).

Thursday, May 15, 2008 08:57 PM

We don't have the evidence

that Obama can't beat McCain. We have all the evidence we need that Shawn and Kate will never again add anything of note to this discussion. My God, their stupidity is sucking the life out of my children even as I write this.

Sunday, May 18, 2008 06:31 PM

Thank goodness we can ignore the polls,

the evidence and the logic. JPincus knows some people who won't vote for Obama.

Monday, May 19, 2008 05:23 PM

Turnout was low in 1972

in part because the outcome was not in doubt. In 2004 the polls were all over the place until First Tuesday.

Thursday, May 22, 2008 06:43 AM

Always Always Always

Fender stretches as far as he can to make a nasty comment about Salon.

Thursday, May 29, 2008 08:06 PM

Millions of people owe Shawn an apology

because they voted for their preferred candidate. Now he is demanding that they not vote for him again. Makes all kinds of sense, don't it?

Tuesday, June 3, 2008 11:01 AM

Turnip

You must have a PHD in Wetblanketry.

Tuesday, June 3, 2008 11:05 AM

I am sure murdered women

appreciate how clever Electro Robot can be.

Wednesday, June 4, 2008 04:10 PM

Hard fought campaign from both sides

And both contenders have all kinds of class and talent.

Original article: Girl crush: Sarah Haskins

She's ok

At first I thought "she's just a little green" but at the end I felt this was a college production. Definitely not ready for the Daily Show. Sorry, I love your column, though.

Hi JoeJoe and Smith

Clearly nothing will be better for poor and working class women than a McCain presidency. You go, Girls!

Aren't all the actors in Kabuki

men?

Thursday, June 12, 2008 09:02 AM

susan and picko. Lilybean

The first time I worked on a political campaign was for Lyndon Johnson. Back then campaign professionals talked about the advantages of debates for the guys running behind. I doubt you are democrats anyway, but just in case you are unaware of that basic campaign strategy I thought I would clue you in.

Lily, when you repeat empty blogging points from months ago you just come off as stupid and boring. Please don't be so stupid and boring as to try and deny this.

Monday, June 23, 2008 12:48 AM

OK, so you really ARE going to stay home or vote for McCain

And none of you has explained how President McCain will be better for America (I always thought America included women and poor people) than President Obama. Until you can do that, everything else you way is a whining, foolish, adolescent irrelevancy.

Tuesday, July 1, 2008 09:05 PM

Prom Night and Parson

Do you two really believe that teenage boys will "go to jail" for having sex and girls won't? Please take and Introductory Criminal Justice class.

You might also be interested to know that the sentencing disparity in juvenile cases favors boys in general. But hey, don't let any facts get in the way of your determination to say something, ANYTHING negative about girls.

Wednesday, July 2, 2008 06:42 PM

also ask your doctor

about seeing a heart specialist. Migraines this severe can be related to heart murmurs.

Ask about verapamil and other channel blockers.

Don't give up, keep telling your story to every doctor you can.

Understood, Captain Kirk

Please post names (and links) of liberals and leftists exhibiting XXX Persian love.

Tuesday, September 2, 2008 07:47 PM

So Palin is not a lightweight

because Al Franken is a lightweight? I have read similar versions of Republican reality this week, Elephantman. Good Luck with those.
