prediction
[Read the article: David Brooks and the deceitful tactics of the Beltway pundit]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Sadly, I think that the malaise and helplessness has reached such heights that the only thing that will happen is the following. The punditocracy will manage to install Hillary, Rockefeller Republican in the White House, the Democrats will continue to be DINO, the ‘war’ will continue, if not escalate during or before she takes office (a Washington DC sanctioned Israeli attack upon Iran), the Canadian Dollar will soon eclipse the American Dollar, our remaining rights will slowly drift down the gutter, the draft will be necessarily reinstated and then after a generation of young people are sent to the front, chaos that will make Chicago in ’68 look like a picnic will erupt.

re: BOO Clinton
[Read the article: David Brooks and the deceitful tactics of the Beltway pundit]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I'm no pavRovian follower by a long stretch but Ktwdawg nailed it but perhaps from the opposite direction- left.
She will bring out the far right core in droves heretofore unseen with the noise machine at an all out high pitch. And as for me from the left, she is center right, not to be trusted symptom of the larger problem.
If the Democrats are foolish enough to nominate her then I doubt I would vote for her, except for the SCOTUS previously mentioned as the only one benefit, otherwise it will be a SNAFU again for 4 to 8 years and the same old shit, with no change but alot of lip service to such.
I also got a mailing from the DCCC begging for money and I sent a reply on their web site saying to effect 'that although they are not the senate, the democrats are a spinelEss group and part of the problem, thanks but I donated to moveon.org along with the ACLU'. Which I guess now makes me a card carrying enemy of the state.
I think a t-shirt should be made and sent to every Democratic senator and congressman to use, whoever said it, my apologies "NO SPINE, NO DIME" "SIGNED YOUR FORMER CONSTITUENTS"

white people
[Read the article: Bill O'Reilly explains the African-American]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"I think white Americans are starting to think more and more for themselves. They're getting away from the O'Reillys and the Limbaughs and the people trying to lead them into a faith-based culture. They're just trying to figure it out: 'Look, I can make it. If I work hard and get educated, I can make it.'"
I can dream can't I?

well said RMP
[Read the article: Various items]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]So, if I am right or at least on the right track, now what do we do? IMHO, the first step is to ensure that we live by the rule of law, do all we can do make sure the enforcers understand its importance and how to use it fairly, and show by example how that will make life better for everyone.
That is why I admire Glenn and his commentariat. They understand the goal and are doing what they can step by step to preserve what our founders started.
I couldn't have said it any better.

Once again thank you for your patronage and heil to the new state.

Update II
[Read the article: Various items]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]This is the most disgusting travesty of the week. I can't help but feel so enraged at the hypocrisy, lunacy, insert pejorative here...
My local representative Towns voted against the moveon.org resolution but it looks like other nearby reps voted for it. I hope each and every one gets a barrage of letters berating them. I just sent an email to him thanking him.
And as for the senate here is the roll call link
http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=110&session=1&vote=00349#position
I am about to sit down a write a letter to my two Senators, Clinton and Schumer, who will never receive my vote again after I compose myself and write a non foul laden letter.
I think that it is about time the CIA and the US Marines be labeled terrorist organizations too.
I can see a time when Europe as a whole turns its back against us, unites with Russia along with the rest of the world and declares the US an enemy state. We are now officially in the era of the fourth reich, god help us.

Joing ondelette in detention
[Read the article: Various items]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I just wrote this to Senator Clinton
Dear Senator Clinton,
I cannot tell you, as a democrat how disgusted I am by your vote of yes on the Lieberman-Kyl amendment.
I am ashamed that you are nothing but what is referred to as a DINO, democrat in name only.
Congratulations on bringing this country one-step closer to war with Iran. I hope when such is declared you will have enough sense to reinstate the draft with as much enthusiasm so that our dwindling military forces can face the onslaught with more fresh meat all in the name of supporting our new one party system of systemic corruption, graft, greed and shredding of the constitution.
I look forward to the day when you and your not so esteemed colleagues stand on the steps of the Capitol and along with our Mission Accomplished leader and his cohort in criminal misdeeds Dick Cheney and ceremoniously shred the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.
Shameful.
Thank you for making us more unsafe and a pariah to the civilized world.
