I don't have any doubts about the existence of deranged maniacs and people just wanting to make a name for themselves, due to their lack of any self esteem. That is why, in fact, I see it as counter productive to make off the cuff and yes, "drama queen" remarks such as 'as long as the lone gunman...'. That comes off as sounding like getting shits and giggles writing a cheap movie script or some such. It doesn't help or change or improve upon what we are up against. It sounds not much different than those who stand in the crowd and yell, 'kill 'im!'
Just because I see those kinds of remarks as juvenile and counterproductive, that does not at all mean that I am not aware that we have crazies crawling amongst us.

Now go away, the rest of us have a country to save.
But, I truly believe that he will at least start moving the country in the right direction after the disastrous Republican - Bush rulership. I still need him to explain his FISA vote, but overall, Obama is a decent guy.
McCain was always a nasty guy. I could never understand why liberals had such a soft spot for him. It's good to know that at least that fawning over this "Maverick" is over for good.
Just 30 more days of this nonsense, and it will be done. Thankfully.
Go Obama 2008 and Beyond!
You're going to save the world.
YOU'RE GOING TO SAVE THE WORLD.
Please.
You're going to save the country.
YOU'RE GOING TO SAVE THE COUNTRY.
Please.
I think now is a time for cynicism. Obama has received corporate contributions. If the masters have realized that McCain cannot win, what better way to maximize the return on the investment in Obama than to support him, at least enough to let him know where he stands?
You've got to see this to believe it - from the Buchanan County GOP Web site -

An excerpt -
"Our God is a mighty God who is waiting patiently for us to raise our voices to heaven to stop the tide of the anti-Christ actions in our world today. Now we find we have a charismatic candidate for President... whose own wife and pastor that he loves profess to have strong anti-white feelings and we sit back and say “it is a given, we can do nothing.”
"It is time for all Christian Americans to raise the battle cry and take our nation back."
"Maybe McCain on his own cannot defeat Obama but our God can and He will if we take to our knees in prayer and raise a mighty cry to the heavens to 'Save us O Lord'."
"We have the power to change the course of this election and to keep a man as suspect as Barak Obama from leading our country to who knows where with his message of “change” - a change which I fear will be away from our Christian ideals and away from Christ and further away one nation under God to one nation under Allah."
"George Bush is being buffeted because he has fought a holy war"
Take a screenshot before they take this page down too.
Both McCain and Obama are financed by the same powers, and those powers are betting that the voter can still be manipulated by the divide an conquer tactic of left vs. right, thus mollifying the vast majority of citizens while continuing, unabated, the killing and theft.
And the elections are fixed via e Voting, or can be if necessary.
Not trolling, just stating facts. I know that the truth hurts.
Are you the same gpjones who is the SAS guru?
If you are, all I can say is you are missed.
YOU'RE GOING TO SAVE THE COUNTRY.Please.

.. vote for Nader. You need to start working the phones instead of trolling. Go now! You can still pull it off for Nader if you start this minute and spend not a second more concern trolling!
P.S. Read "Unsafe at Any Speed" for motivation! Maybe I'll go buy a Corvair Corsa.
... and "working the phones" isn't the only way to express one's opinions.
It was written and jotted down, ... "tit for tat" ... "Don't let anyone take that purpose from you." ... yes. "beaucoup" money is used to smear." yes. it's filth. dirty lucre.
(It's "stuff" like that, that, that, and much more that is a reason to keep coming back for comment contributions. A real good reason to keep coming back for more.)
And many more, many many many more that are unmentioned, many excellent others. In my opinion. rollo-spanial, Cocktailhorse, peakdave, and it be silly to mention all comments that are the `wowee, astonishingly impressive, and helpful. jpjones, you smacked me good with the Get Well Card. So Funny.
It made a good hospital day.
The `wowsers are negatively critical, and the killjoys.
The Updates: `b., thee first poster today on page one.
Will you and pincher P. grab McCain? Scrub him down?
Use Ivory soap bars. Spoon one lump in the left cheek.
He's needing a Botox Party for 'our' continued support.
Get him in the bath tub and Inject Truth `Syrup of Figs.
It's a warm bath, senna, and safe laxative carminatives.
Sit in the tub. Lather and scour with horse hair, please.
After a lathery bath, dry him off. Use sandpaper tissue.
Dana Millbank is worth a read in the Wa/Po. `VA treat.
Pincer P. and YKW, all the McCain fans, and Salon readers will love you, and not judge you harshly for using a horse tail, and bristled pig brush in a bath tub with a politician. The two of you in the tub with McCain is not obscene. The You-Tub in the Update was so full of contempt, loathing, and know the nation will love you too. Glenn may consider washing Cindy with Dial soap (tease)? Whoever counsel The GOP can be rubbed down with soothing sardine oil. Women and men may see some things differently, but hurry, drop whatever your doing and get on with the 'job' of cleaning up McCain.
One commenter said:` knock on doors and clean GOPS.
Do something! No sitting in a Lazy-girl chair with Palin.
Much of the initial coverage about Fort Hood turned out to be wrong. Is there anything wrong with that?
