    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    You'd actually be surprised that REAL republicans have just finished vomiting for 7 years in a row and are ready to make a serious change. I'm an independent from a red state and I know plenty of them. I still can't figure out if that's a good thing or not. I can't stand the crop on either side so I'm a man without a party who couldn't give a damn what Karl Rove does.

  • Gary Owen...

    ...just go ahead and curse. I do.

    Come to think of it, that's all I do anymore.

    ...I'd be out by the roadside, you can bet your ass on that.

    Did I show you my new Hello Kitty doll?

    Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! We are fuckin doomed!

    I do believe our dear vice president beats Bush with 2 DWIs.

  • Novak's not in jail?

    [Read the article: The Craig watch]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    I thought Novak was in jail for fucking treason.

    Who's "we"?

    The closeted, bathroom stall cruising "conservatives"?

  • Men are horny/braindead sex machines.

    [Read the article: Casual hookups cause "gray rape"?]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    It's true. I know because I'm a man.

    A father should instruct his daughter as to the horrors of the real world. A male between the ages of 12-40 will say and do virtually anything to get into your pants. I know women don't want to hear it, but it's true. Sorry.

  • When he announces...

    [Read the article: Report: Thompson is in]

    ...will he be smoking one of his Cuban cigars?

  • ... in the wrong place at the wrong time."

    [Read the article: "A victim of circumstance"]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    He got that right.

    In the closeted GOP in the 21st century.

  • Souter voted to steal the land of american citizens by eminent domain.

    [Read the article: Neither was ours]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Fuck David Souter and his tears.

    I'm sure the people who lost their land feel bad for him. He's just another piece of crap who gives not one shit about the people who have had their lives ruined by his bad rulings.

  • The same hatred has, and will, run forever.

    [Read the article: Larry Craig's downfall]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Look at how far we've come in the last 20 years on the hatred front. Not very far, and I would say not at all.

    If anything, we're 20 years older and no wiser. I don't see the signs you seem to be seeing. I see the exact opposite.

  • Tiberius...

    [Read the article: Report: Iraqi security forces not even close to ready]

    ...what do you mean "we"?

    Are you posting from Iraq in your camo?

  • If we stick around long enough...

    [Read the article: Gen. Petraeus' fuzzy math]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    ...after all the Iraqi people are dead, those violence numbers are gonna look great!

  • It's only been 2 days...

    [Read the article: Thompson proposes a new gay marriage amendment]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    ...and I'm already sick of hearing about this fucking hack.

  • Please stop calling this a war.

    [Read the article: Buying Time 101: The Petraeus plan for Iraq]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    This is an invasion and occupation. If we hope to make any changes in our involvement in Iraq we must stop using the word "war". Congress never declared war on Iraq.

    The word "war" somehow makes this whole horrorshow legitimate.

  • Pssst...tell ya a secret...

    [Read the article: Covering the coverage: Conservative blogs on the Petraeus/Crocker hearing]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    ...no matter what Moveon.org or anyone else on the left does, republicans will bitch about the left and 2.4 american soldiers will die in Iraq every day until January 2009. It's also a good chance the bitching and the dead troops will continue well after that date.

    I know, you already knew that.

  • After all her talk, what is she going to do about it?

    [Read the article: Clinton and the general]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Nothing. Absolutely nothing, just like the rest of the spineless, cowardly democrats.

  • I guess I'm the only one.

    [Read the article: Hit her, baby, one more time]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    I thought she looked pretty damned good in that outfit and I'll also say that she could probably use 10 or 20 more pounds. Women are supposed to be soft.

    If you want something skinny and muscled, get yourself a teenaged boy.

  • Check out unity08.com

    [Read the article: A surrender before the fight begins?]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    If your sick of the democratic party, it just might be to your liking.

    I gave up on the dems long ago and am a registered independent. I will not vote for a democrat in government today. No Hillary, no Obama, no Dodd, no Biden. I will break my promise for Dennis but the rest of them sat around while America burned and they can get on the unemployment line for all I care. I will not vote republican and I will not vote for the government democrats so it's unity08 or a write in for me.

  • I wish the only thing we had to worry about...

    [Read the article: A setback in Anbar]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    ...was the president getting a blowjob.

  • What are the "rules"...

    [Read the article: What happens to private contractors who kill Iraqis? Maybe nothing]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    ...for an invasion and occupation of a country? Since it's not legal to do it, can it have rules?

  • I've heard posters here call Rudy a moron and stupid.

    [Read the article: Giuliani: 9/11 helped change my views on gun control]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    If he's the right wing candidate on Election Day, he will receive somewhere around 50% of the vote. Who's the moron again?

  • Chris Wallace should have asked her...

    [Read the article: The questions they ask]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    ...how she spent the money she got from attending the fundraiser thrown for her by Rupert Murdoch and News Corp.

  • Wake me up when Bollinger rips a president on their own soil.

    [Read the article: Lee Bollinger's big moment]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    THAT will be news. THIS is all bullshit.

  • It's interesting that so many people believe Bollinger to be brave.

    [Read the article: Ahmadinejad, big man on campus]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    He invited a polarizing figure to speak in his own country in front of his own crowd, on his own turf and he called him a few names. WOW! Your barvery is off the charts!

    It's kind of like giving someone the finger as you speed off in your car.

    Your in Manhattan. Go down to 3rd Street, find the Hells Angels clubhouse and kick one of their bikes over. Now that would take balls Mr. Bollinger. The shit you pulled today was cowardly.

  • Zoroastrian

    [Read the article: Ahmadinejad, big man on campus]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    As I understand it, Ahmadinejad asked to be given permission to place a wreath at the Trade Center sight, not to piss on it. What a powerful image that would have been for the world to see. Instead, the world will once again be treated to yet another image of America tossing insults at anyone we disagree with.

    Just remember who made a shitload of claims about terrorist supporters and weapons of mass destruction. It may be true but how about some fucking evidence this time. I seem to remember our president and vice president being completely wrong on every count the last time this story unfolded.

    This country and it's institutions appear to be run by assholes.

  • It's a good thing they own their own land...

    [Read the article: Naughty nuns excommunicated]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    ...cause the church would sell it out from under them to pay the child rape charges anyway.

    What a fuckin world!

  • I guess Rush gave up...

    [Read the article: Rush Limbaugh and the "phony soldiers"]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    ...giving up being the water carrier for this administration. Now he carries water, Viagra and Oxycontin.

    He's so full of shit he was born with 2 assholes.

  • Just one problem Tim.

    You don't have to make a donation to enter. Sorry.

  • Money won't matter in the end.

    [Read the article: Edwards to accept public funds: Taking a stand or falling down?]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Electability will. Edwards is electable and Hillary is not. Howard Dean was sailing tword the nomination with his grassroots internet campaign and we all know what happened to him. It happened because he was simply not electable, not because of some stupid little scream.

    Hillary will fade away right after Iowa. She has to. If she becomes the nominee, the dems lose in 08 and I think most people understand that.

  • 24,000 young people showed up!
