“... And in other news: rain is wet.”

“The WH strategy here is brilliant. By forcing the MSM to stick together, they are insulating FoxNews from any possible chance at having to change their ways. As a result, the folks at Fox will continue their shotty excuse for journalism, allowing ever increasing numbers of the public to understand that the MSM so-called news is unreliable. The advertising-based model for news won't wither and die, but it will continue its decline, accellerated by the dead weight. Citizens will seek out their own news sources instead of sitting back and letting themselves be spoonfed. Voila: a more informed citizenry, full of actual facts and actual knowledge, not MSM talking points and superfluousness.”

“Um, "Berkeley", doofus. When using statistics, it often helps to spell correctly. Don't get me wrong, I know it's hard and all, especially with Fox getting 'R' and 'D' mixed up all the time...”

“Am I the only person who finds this, oh, really really wierd?”

“Excellent!! The point has been made that the Republican party is racist. Now they are showing themselves to be sexist as well. Keep it coming, you're riding that high wave into obscurity!!”

“Bravo!!!!”

“Wow, you really crack me up. Free press? Last time I checked, our press was owned by corporations who determined what was 'news' based on what could sell advertising in order to make a profit. Free elections? Anybody who thinks the 2000 elections were 'free' needs to re-read the papers. And since when do American elections express the will of the people in this country? Less than half the country votes! Even in 2008, when record numbers of people turned out to vote, it was still less than half!! And what exactly is your definition of a 'free' people anyway? Are women free to make as much money as men? They don't. Are blacks 'free' to excel as far as whites? They don't. Are the poor 'free' to move up the social ladder? They never will, and it has nothing to do with their being lazy. 50 million people living below the poverty line, if you think it's cause they're all lazy... but far be it for me to burst your bubble of American Exceptionalism.”

“I really don't understand why there's any question about it. Even with the few details we have, it seems VERY clear. He was found dead on 9/12. He has 'Fed' scrawled across his chest. Word about the crime had been covered up, hadn't leaked out until now, nearly two weeks later.

If you leave out the Sept.11 attacks, who have been the perpatrators of domestic terrorism in the US? What group of extreemists was responsible, say, for Oaklahoma City?

These people have guns, they are armed and looking for a revolution. Send them all to Texas and cut em loose, I say.”

“Another stellar performance from the PILF!”

“No, no, no, get your facts right--it was the University of My A*S!!!”

“McKinney”

“After WWII, the United States prosecuted other nations for waterboarding. It is hypocritical for us to now claim these actions are okay or justified when we do them.”

“We shout and we shout and we shout, and still nothing is done. Bush & Co. will never be held accountable. The general public, even when word of these finds reaches their ears--which is rare--says that what we did was "okay" and "justifiable" because it was what was "necessary". The awful truth that no seems willing to acknowledge is that the wealthy/powerful have always been able to do whatever they want without fear of reprisal. Bush's grandfather FUNDED the Nazis. Now we hear US diplomats under Bush advocated the Nazis' trial defense that they were only "doing what they were told to do." The idea of the ends justifies the means remains a persistant mode of thought and as long as the guilty go unpunished, it will remain so. As long as the vocal majority of Americans believe that we can do whatever we like because hey who's going to stop us? nothing will change. *sigh*”

“Wow. My hometown finally makes the huffpo, and it's because we're having a state garage sale. Pathetic.”

“BWAH-HA-HA-HA-HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!”

“ROFL!!! Oh, how funny is the politics of the absurd. To Mr. Obama--In case it isn't quite clear, the former veep is LAUGHING at you!!”

“A brilliant commentary outlining just how far to the right the right has moved. I imagine many Democrats are privately snickering to themselves, knowing that the more insane the Republican party appears to the bulk of the country, the more marginalized it will become. It's tough to see how just a few short years ago, they thought they were creating a permanent majority. And yet, that was only just one of their many fantasies. Maybe we should rename the Mississippi river to d'Nile. . .”

“Bring. Every. Troop. Home. Now.”

“Hear, hear!”

“I saw the first TF film, loved it, but yeah there were some ugly racial overtones there. Bernie Mac? Hilarious, but just another stereotype. Jazz? The only autobot who gets killed in the movie. I said to a friend of mine at the time, DAMN! Even the robot brothas die in the movies. So now I'm wondering if Skids & Mudflap bite it in this one.”

“*Applause*”

“Keep dreaming, bible-thumper.
Get your religion oiut of my government!!!”

“This still doesn't make any sense to me. How can Bristol be a proponent for abstinence-only education when she's LIVING PROOF that it doesn't work?!?!”

“Hear, hear!!”

“Go here, ignoramous:

All your questions are already answered. I know, it must really suck to be you. You want very badly for people to be making this up. Guess what? They aren't.”
