I don't stereotype. I make moral judgements,
You call what you said about Britney Spears a "moral judgement"? Sure Steele, whatever you say. You are really starting to scare me now.
Steele you're a schtarker and a stalker! One more and you will be "all three"!
Its not personal. The comment was concerning a certain comment. End of transmission.
This is incredible. You post an article and get a THOUSAND replies, most of them vehemently against Israel's violent carnage.
Yet no one can organize the kind of pressure that Obama bowed to on the Guantanamo issue?
Truly remarkable. Because as everyone knows, organizing a political action committee capable of going toe-to-toe with AIPAC is exactly the same as pressing the button marked"Publish my letter."
This is like a subspecies of the man-on-the-moon fallacy (as in "we can put a man on the moon but I can't do copy/paste on my iPhone? WTF?").

"A new Spirit I will put within you. And I will remove from you a heart of stone, and give you a heart of flesh."
Ezekiel 36:26
Well, that explains why the screen doesn't change when I hit UT's FORM ANTI-AIPAC PAC!!!
Just how do you digest your food with company like this?
From the pool report:
"The PEOTUS departed Hay-Adams at 6:17 p.m. and at arrived at 6:34 p.m. at No. 9 Grafton St., Chevy Chase (right off the circle). Thanks to the good work of Hans Nichols (of Bloomberg and "Daily Show" fame), Montgomery County property tax records showed this is the home of conservative columnist George Will (valued at $1.9 million, according to the 2008 levy).
We're still awaiting confirmation that this is indeed Will's house from the transition, but your pool is satisfied with the documentation.
Your pool has been told it's a dinner party.
And, thanks to an enterprising photographer, a shot through a window showed op-ed stalwarts William Kristol and David Brooks are also part of this unlikely gathering of tight, right suits.
Transition mouthpiece Tommy Vietor was also spied inside the manse.
This is for real, folks. The bloggers are going to love this one.
Update: Hot Air suspects Rush Limbaugh might also be at the dinner."
[wbgonne]: GG wants to be your Ann Coulter and he's well on his way.
[Glenn]: You certainly spend a good amount of time reading here and participating.
For the people who show up here constantly to say how awful and irrelevant what's written here is, I believe your actions speak a lot louder than your words.
Hey, Glenn, you want me to handle these types, let me know. My rates are reasonable, and my skills are adequate, if not quite up to your level.... ;-)
Cheers,
"That happens for one clear reason: because one side of the debate (the AIPAC faction) is strong and aggressive in its criticisms and pressure tactics..."
Not that simple. To Americans, Arabs and Iranians are the enemy, and have been since organization of OPEC. More opposition to the pro-Israel punditry would help, but it's not just a matter of organization and propaganda.
As far as I'm able to tell, he's suffering from life-long injuries and their consequences. That very often can include all kinds of emotional repercussions, either from the injuries or even as side-effects to the treatment.
There was a cry-for-help feeling to the thing I couldn't help but notice. A why-the-hell-is-this-happening-this-way-? sort of thing. The little of it I saw, anyway.-- Derbig Mooser
But if you will allow me, one could assume the same things about anyone here.

So, because all have suffered (I am assuming we won't get into a pissing contest about relative levels of suffering here), we should not be concerned with extending compassion to those who are near, as well as those who are half a world away?
This is incredible. You post an article and get a THOUSAND replies, most of them vehemently against Israel's violent carnage.
You know, tadjani, I was tempted to do an analysis of one of those threads. Number of unique commenters, number of comments per person, number of pro-Israel, number pro-Palestinian, number who just wanted to say something (didn't matter what), but I got a grip on my erstwhile OCD and turned off the computer. Sounds like you did an analysis. Care to share the stats? My impression, from being in the middle of a couple of them, suggests to me it wasn't 1,000 comments opposed to Israel's violent carnage. Anecdotally, I'm guessing at least a third were in defense of Israel. Maybe more, given the give and take of the thread.
Does Everyone Realize that Many of the Detainees are Being Force Fed?
I had a couple of posts on that on my blog a while back. Here's the links (or click sig).

Cheers,
Please drop this. You've misread my posts, and if you haven't then I apologize. I don't know Be bop, he's not my friend. I have nothing against him or for him. If I had a problem it was with his posts and the way he posted them. This almost by definition cannot be personal, and I resent your putting it in those terms.
My comment was meant to highlight my perception that many friends of Bop act as if he lacks agency. That was it.
The other comment was meant to highlight that if Glenn wants to come to be known as a fair moderator who allows the most freedom for posters short of disruption, then can't take such things into account. Otherwise, he might have to extend the same courtesy to all posters. In that case, it would be better if he extended it to none.
Now please, for everyone's sake leave it here.
Much of the initial coverage about Fort Hood turned out to be wrong. Is there anything wrong with that?
