I only WISH somebody was paying attention to Ron Paul
policies like the type Ron Paul advocates
Whoever said this is an imbecile and a tax and spend Nazi who would bankrupt our nation to prove himself correct.

Harry Reid -- The Image of Impotence
Harry Reid's attitude toward Joe Lieberman just reinforces the image he projects every time we see him on TV, that of a wholly impotent alleged spokesman for the Democratic Party. It's unfortunate that Democrats have to look like such wimps every time Reid is put up there to answer some accusation just made by Bush, who in spite of his actual character, comes across as the image of confident power. I hate to say it, but Nancy Pelosi can't exactly be perceived as dynamic, either.

Like this post needs another comment
I just wanted to point out that as decent human beings we are prone to assume the good faith and competence of others.
Even though our experience should have taught us otherwise by now.
I just listened to Harry Reid's appearance on the Leonard Lopate show on WNYC (http://www.wnyc.org/shows/lopate/episodes/2008/05/05) and agree with those who think Sen. Reid is either medicated or simply out of it.
He took the interview as essentially an opportunity to make one long Senate floor speech, informed directionally by the questions. He contradicted himself a million times, but always giving things that terribly "reasonable" veneer that is the sine qua non of the Senate.
Whether he is unable to perform, or somehow venal, I could not speculate. But that he is woefully inept for his duties seems clear beyond any doubt.

Harry Reid
Glenn,
you're a brilliant writer and i follow you most of the time but i think you're cutting Reid too much slack. he's a liar. punkt. he may be an idiot into the bargain. maybe he took too many punches back in the day.
Joe Lieberman makes the Democrats look really, really bad. he is a walking, gaseous insult to every living progressive. somebody needs to put Holy Joe and Harry the Hapless out to pasture. They are both enabling virtually everything bad in American government.

lwm still plays economist ... poorly
Oh, yeah?
Just wait, buckster.
I'm staying at a Holiday Inn tonite.

Well good for you.
However, I asked you explain how Ron Paul's economics got us in this mess like you claimed. I figure you had an opinion on the matter since you smeared him.
Well?

LWM takes an Off-Topic cheap shot at Ron Paul
Shocked am I. Looks like somebody wants some attention. In other news, the sun rose in the east this morning.

Don't chase its shiny object. You know full well its got nothing in its URL library but the same fallacious distractions, trite smears, and cheap tricks.

Glenn's Humor
"it was almost like he was in this catatonic state, almost unable to move or speak -- an excellent expression of Democratic Congressional leadership over the past 18 months. And he was there to promote his book: "The Good Fight."
- Glenn Greenwald
I've seen people troll through here and say things along the lines of "You're not funny, Glenn!", "Stop trying to humorous!", etc.
I know I have a dry sense of humor, but I love Glenn's wit!
Just wanted to say that.

@electro
What? Because you have no concept of appropriate standards of proof?
You must have had a rough time in elementary school.

Glenn Greenwald on Electro Robot.
For those of you who think there might be some profit in engaging Electro, I can only offer Glenn's comments after exchanging a few comments with him:
It's hard to believe that any sane, psychologically healthy person could write this. In fact, it's so hard to believe that I actually don't believe it.
You'll find it at http://letters.salon.com/opinion/greenwald/2008/04/28/mccain/permalink/ae2d62b257da347a9a97a64bc1a1d617.html
Or click my name. You can see the exchange which led to that at ppg 325 and 326 of Glenn's archived comments.

Shouldn't you Paultards
be over at Amazon.com reviewing a book you haven't read?
Nice, Prunes.
A balanced budget amendment.
Another kooky idea from the kooks in "The Austrian School".
Just think. If Jefferson hadn't reversed himself and borrowed all that money for the Louisiana Purchase, New Orleansbeing washed away would be France's problem today.
Look. I'm no economist and neither are any of you. I'm just intelligent enough to know bullshit and lunacy when I see it.
If only more Americans had ths capability.

Silly Me!
"It's hard to believe that any sane, psychologically healthy person could write this. In fact, it's so hard to believe that I actually don't believe it."
Should have been in quotes, with Glenn Greenwald's name after it. Sorry.

Like this post NO don't need another comment... Thanks Jim Pharo
Passing along down bye the vacuum cleaner pawn shop... There was someone down and out sitting on the curb... He looked demented. Boo. Meow. He licks wounds like a cat. Where did data come from So, everybody is a lier? Next he's blurt out to a Eagle gracefully floating in a wind current, "I don't like you flying eagles in the sky." Oh brother/sister, where do they come from? Mars? Hades.

M. E. Etc., was using a pencil rubber eraser from a #2 pencil to try and scrub off a omage of Old Mother Jkalos's Hen Tattoo. huh. Yep. hush. eat catfish or bass sushi. No eat a Possum up.
The tattoo on the arm of Mr. YKW was a collage of many pairs of other people's shoe and army boots of the slain in the Middle East. etc.,
There were shoes from childhood stories of Mother Goose, Papa Hubbard, and Harry Reid and Joe Lieberman. Me. E. was no longer bored. He was an apologist of all humanity. Mr. E. was a relaxed Jew. He was considering a conversion to incorporate all faiths and evolving Thoughts. Maybe he will become a Universalist. Who knows change" Jim Pharo changes socks with electrical watts? Ouch.
"He did it. We can do it. We must do it!" Lora the child adventurer said. Everybody can watch Lora cartoons. We can understand better, then? Then we are part Moslem, Baptist, Lutheran, Episcopalian, and may grow long curly sideburns too...
Oh, on the curb trying to erase,
a tattoo of a shoe that NO fits.
Why get a tattoo? Achy. Say it.o. sthu. okay.
