    Third Grade Schoolyard

    When did Salon go down the toliet? The comments on this report fit remarkably well with the taunts I used to hear in the third grade. "General Betrayus"? This whole board has turned into a Kos Kids trash heap insult fest. If you have a specific comment on the counter insurgency strategy - perhaps you could voice it more clearly.

    It is truly depressing to read anything on Salon these days, it feels like a mirror image of Fox. What happened to simple analysis? All we get now is opinion, opinion, and more opinion.
