“Senator Bennet, you just won a fan.”

“Woah, woah, woah! Why is the picture of the ninja accompanying the word "bad?" What has she got against ninjas, man?”

“I don't like him. Don't know too many other liberals who do. Apathy and mixed feelings, sure. On one hand, he was a klanner, on the other hand, it was a long time ago and he's sorry now. Sort of like Nazi Pope, but less frightening.”

“I guess, at the end of the day, you conservatives don't really care about reducing wasteful spending.”

“Fact: flies and mosquitoes spread disease and misery to humanity. If I swat a fly, isn't there at least a one-in-a-million shot that I'm preventing a human being from getting malaria? Don't I have that obligation to prevent human suffering?

Here's another thing. Ever use that Purell stuff? Kills 99.99% of germs. But, aren't such microbes also "living beings?" Is a squirt of Purell genocide or germicide? Is it inhumane to wash my hands?

I disagree with you-- a LOT-- that all life is sacred. Insects have adapted to be expendable, hence the large numbers. But, look at me. Arguing with a crazy person, AGAIN!”

“I live in that area. There's a bishop of Portland? I had no idea. Anyway, great to know that all my Catholic friends' alms money is going into fighting the rights of my gay friends. With all the churches it's been closing recently, shouldn't the Catholic Church back off from big useless political fights and actually use the money to keep open places of worship? You know, the reason (I assume) Catholics give money to the Catholic church in the first place?

How many Catholic congregations and orphanages could be kept alive by the money they're going to pour into fighting gay marriage?”

“Yeah, Keef, you show that snooty elitist designer homo who's the boss! YOU DA MAN!

Wait, what was he upset about over? And why was headbutting his move of choice?”

“I'm beginning to suspect our President really, really loves his email. The first hint was his attachment to his Blackberry­... The second hint is his email question. Oh well, there are worse things to be addicted to.”

“What do you get when you mix ideological extremism, hateful bigotry, and thirst for blood with a gun fetish? It's either Al-Qaeda or the GOP.

You know, maybe I'd be more inclined to believe 2nd Amendment Nuts about guns being only for 'self-defense' if the same people weren't always ranting about who they'd like to shoot and why. Scary stuff.”

“They did have a Latino, but I think they sacked him for not being funny enough... which seemed weird to me, because I didn't know that was still part of the job descriptor.”

“If Obama was your doctor, he'd be Doogie Howzer, M.D.

If Sarah Palin was your doctor, you'd sue the hospital for letting the nursing school flunkie do your operation.”

“Family Guy quote, anyone? Stewie: (weakly) "Don't... take me... to a black... doctor!"”

“Poor thing, you're confused. Let me help you out. You can't even remember your own talking points. Clinton's infamous quote was "it all depends on what the definition of 'is' is." Bill Clinton never claimed to not knowing what sex is, wherever you got that bizarre claim.

And it was Michelle Obama who gaffed that "for the first time in my adult life, I'm REALLY proud of our country!" which was then distorted and deliberately misquoted by the rightwing media.

Obama has spent 4 years in the U.S. Congress and 8 years in the Illinois State Legislature. Compare to Abraham Lincoln, who spent 2 years in U.S. Congress and 8 years in the Illinois State Legislature. Also, Illinois is harder to manage than Alaska.”

“If Obama wins this election, Newscorp will go belly-up by 2016 and Murdoch will become a panhandler by 2020. Just my guess.”

“No, it was fine the way it was.”

“True. Thing can only get worse before they get better. I''m hoping that the bleeding will have stopped after a term and a half, and Obama will have 2 years to make America somewhat better than it was before. But if Democrats lose either of the next two elections, America's going to Hell in a handbasket.”

“True enough... We were right, though. Hillary should have gotten out in February or March, NOT June. Those long extra five months tore this party apart. We all came out pissed at each other, with little time to prepare. Why are you guys going rogue? Not for any ideological reason. There's no substantial divide between Obama and Clinton, neither in intelligence, capability, nor political opinions. Rogue PUMA Clintonites can barely name rational reasons why Obama's so much worse than Hillary. The only thing wrong with Obama, it seems, is that his name isn't Hillary Clinton.

I don't know how we can get you guys back on board. We're struggling to get Clinton-backers back into our camp, and every time some top Clintonista undoes all our hard work, we get pissed. What is it we can do to please you? Let us help you! Why are you so blinded by your love for Hillary, that you can't see the extreme danger of John McCain? We're desperate.

In the coming nights, the Clintons better do a damn good job rounding up their supporters, or the PUMAs and Hillaryis44's will become the Naderites of 2008.”

“Out of the park, I agree. Sitting at home, watching my TV, I stood up and cheered at the end of it. It was pure brilliant. Fantastic opening night. The Kennedys' speeches brought me to tears. Mrs. Obama's speech filled me with pride and joy. Such class and character, so worthy of a First Lady! And her grace, her eloquence-- she could be a candidate herself, if she wanted to!”

“Michelle's speech was dynamite, so thorough and sympathetic. So was Ted Kennedy's, which was so emotional, tear-jerking, and evocative, a worthy sequel to the historic speech he gave 28 years ago. Caroline takes bronze for tonight.

Maya Saetoro-Ng and Craig Robinson were also interesting to hear from. I wanted to hear from the Republican they got to speak, but MSNBC decided that that was chatter-time. So far so good for the convention. Wish I was there.”

“Dead-on accurate.”

“It is a very real threat, and extremely possible, but it will not happen. It will not happen for exactly one reason: because we recognize it, because we expect it, because we dread it. And our dread keeps secret service on their toes. They're prepared for the worst, and neither Obama nor his entourage will drop their guard against the nutjobs who may be lurking.

On the other hand, you know that there are a few hundred mentally unstable people in America who are loyal Fox News viewers who tune in every night to hear Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly's slander, and think: "Obama must be destroyed.­" The mainstream media entertains this ridiculous narrative that Obama 'might be a terrorist' for the same reasons they entertained the ridiculous narrative that King was a communist. They propagate for political points and extra views. They do it to cause mistrust and hatred, which brings in more viewers than the truth. And they recklessly ignore the fact that somewhere there may be a James Earl Ray, a Lee Harvey Oswald, a Sirhan Sirhan, gulping down every word they say.”

“What, doesn't Europe have any lame, egotistical cowboy Senators?”

“I'm not surprised.­.. but I'm still disappointed.”

“Laura Bush? What bad things were said about Laura Bush?”

“Hahaha... great plan, guys. You haven't seen Blazing Saddles, right? Excellent.”
