“I expect it is easier for a homosexual to enter the kingdom of heaven than most priests.”

“Howard Dean is an idealist who had hoped that the Senate would at least pass something that would actually put a dent in health care. Very little is changed in the new bill. What is changed will be circumvented by the insurance companies. Welcome To Washington, Mr. Dean. No one here does anything for anybody. Get used to it.”

“Amen to the obvious. Air brushed models in make-up ads? They are so airbrushed - even the young ones - they do not look human! Truth is, aging is largely genetic. If you have good genes, good for you, if you don't, all the beauty products in the world cannot stop the decline.”

“Really? I think some of us see what we want to see.”

“Sadly, in America, violence has become an addiction. In films, on the news in video games, the violence has escalated to unprecedented levels. I would like to think that we would wake up and say enough, but the vast majority of Americans are bloodthirsty and not terribly bright. Sad but true.”

“We could only pray for such a ticket!”

“Church wedding without a civil license has no validity, yet you can get married civilly without any involvement form any church. Marriage is a civil institution, which occasionally involves churches but not always. Mr. Demint is wrong - again.

Mr Demint represents all the dumbasses in the country.”

“The report of Tiger Wood's demise is premature and grossly exaggerated. Nothing has affected his game, only his reputation - and not as a golfer or athlete. While his behavior is unfortunate, it cannot be unexpected. Star athletes tend to cheat.

I regret what Tiger has done to his wife and children. He has done nothing to me.”

“The times they are a changing - even in Texas.”

“The middle aged blonde smoking "housewife" is hilarious!”

“To be bought is bad, to be bought for so little is worse. He is a sellout for peanuts. That is just sad.”

“Erick Erickson - that was not a defense of the Bush Doctrine. The Bush Doctrine advocated use of force and occupation on a whim - a wish and a prayer - not retaliation of an attack. Nothing n the speech supported or justified in anyway the attack on Iraq.

The speech was an acknowledgment that sometimes wars must be fought to preserve the ultimate peace. I hope he is right in his assessment of Afghanistan. I fear greatly he is not. Only time will tell.”

“Mark Sanford wants to reconcile with his wife or her money? I think Jenny Sanford took the only option she had, to walk away form the Governor and his "soul mate".

Let's see how long that relationship lasts without his political power or his wife's considerable fortune. The Argentine temptress will move on to more attractive options shortly, if she hasn't already.”

“Palin has managed to turn her fifteen minutes of fame in to a year. Congratulations on that, but you know she is just so much BS. All form and no substance.

AL Gore may be an extreme climate change opponent, but she hasn't really even give the subject much thought. She is so shallow you cannot even get your feel wet.”

“The solution is for voters to pay attention and to NOT re-elect anyone who has played a part in this lobbyist-loving, insurance company loving fiasco. We can vote representatives out every two years, Senators out every six years. It is time to start doing this with many of them.”

“Just so, so, so, so very sad. I wish whatever hole in her soul is causing this self-destructive behavior could be healed.

Love is a beautiful thing. She is so far from it. The Devil has got her on a wild ride and the end will not be pretty - unless she surrenders to love and forgiveness.

Forever an optimist I will pray for her health, mental and physical. May God bless her tortured soul. There is light at the end of the tunnel, darling. Reach for it.”

“We didn't have threats of nukes when Bush was in the White House? What planet are you from?”

“Its only a matter of time. The dinosaurs are dying off. Who would have thought a black man could have been elected president forty years ago, when a black man could not be served in a public restaurant or stay in a public motel? The times they are a changing. The change may come haltingly and a little too slowly but time does bring change. Homosexuals have time on their side now. Its going to happen soon. You can take that to the bank!”

“Your statement has nothing to do with what I said. I said nothing about building a democracy or changing the way Afghanistan works or governs itself - just in giving a moderate position a ghost of a chance in a country overrun by extreme religious conservatism. By engaging the moderate forces in the Taliban and building a consensus among tribal leaders of a more moderate nature, we can leave Afghanistan in a better place than we found it.”

“It wouold seem you are the one talking the path of least resistance, knocking with tired old rhetoric what Obama is trying to do. We broke Afghanistan and we have some obligation to fix it as we depart. We started breaking it back during the Reagan years, when we backed the Taliban to fight Russia. We continued to break it when we invaded because the Taliban did not fight Al Queda within the Afghanistan borders - something we have found is very difficult to do.

We have to try and put the country back together again, at least a little , before we leave. We need to give moderation a ghost of a chance. I would love to just leave the whole mess in the dust, but that would be irresponsible and would leave a festering problem that would blow up in our faces in a couple of years.

Obama has a gargantuan task before him, but he has taken the least popular path to fix it. It is a risk, a huge risk, but one he has decided to take. You harp on the Vietnam analogy that has grown tired from over use. He has taken a daring and unpopular path for anything but political reasons. Offer something new and intelligent here or go away!”

“While many may be let down by his middle of the road policies, 74% of Americans like Obama. That's a larger percentage than voted for him. He still defeats known and unknown Republican opposition by double digits. Though people who voted for Obama may be disappointed in his actions or inactions on certain specific issues, no one who voted for Obama now wishes they voted for McCain-Palin! Almost everyone with a brain knows that choice would have been disastrous!”

“The DEMOCRATS are the only game in town, but their corruption means a new social liberal, fiscally conservative party must emerge. Traditional Moderate Conservatism - a la George Will - has a place in our country. Sarah Palin conservatism should not.”

“The biggest disappointment for me on Obama is that he has done nothing to stop the discharge of gay servicemen and women, and done nothing about ending the don't ask don't tell policy. The time has come to end this and DOMA. Enough with it's not the right time or we have other more pressing issues on the agenda. End this now!”

“Competition for roles in Hollywood is stiff - and there are more than a few gay actors doing quite weel for themselves. It could be that you are just getting older. Give it time. When you become a character actor's age, your roles may pick up again.”

“The majority of Americans support reform and support the public option. The polls showing opposition, includes those who do not wan the reform bill, and those who think it does not go far enough. The people who do not think it goes far enough far outweighs those who do not want the bill at all.

More than 70% of the public supports a robust public option. Even without amendment the public option is weak and watered down and only available to about 6 million Americans. But it is a start.”
