“It is not illegal in New York. Also, he was not married at the time.

End of story.”

“that's just conservatives being paranoid. I'm a liberal. So are most of my friends. And we all find this man's behavior despicable and his supporters' protestations laughably incoherent.”

“"......their silence is deafening." - Actions speak louder than words!

".....they aren't in a mob." - Perhaps they aren't the mob mentality! We have certainly seen what happens when those type people get together.”

“In NYC? How many times has you nose been broken?”

“Hi dbartenstein,
Thanks for your post! I've never been inside Fenway Park (drove by it a couple of times), but that historic stadium has real character. And I was thrilled when the Red Sox finally beat the Yankees in '04 and went on to win their first World Series in 86 years. The Red Sox are big spenders, but the Yankees spend a ton more. Fenway's left-field wall: "The Green Monster." The Yankee money machine: "The Green Monster."
Best wishes, Dave”

“He is a laughingstock in the neocon community. I think he is brilliant, and I admire him and trust his motives entirely, but they have launched a campaign to discredit him and brand him a fool and a hypocrite.”

“Have you actually gone to a showroom in the past year and driven one of the new models from the domestic auto makers?”

“iAMEN”

“Bravo bravo.....

the overheating and hyperbole that has come with the protective cocoon of the INTERNET has IMO produced this FLAMING technique.

you maintain your agenda and successfully progress it by creating consensus and inclusion and if not turning the other cheek at least forgiving them their ignorance bigotry and isolation.

Every time you go for "an eye for an eye" all you get is blindness on both sides.”

“dbartenstein.............true dat!
I think many in America are immature in approach to humanity. Its always about them and us.
growth is called for on all levels. it is so tiresome with all this acrimony!”

“Yeah, better not piss off the bigots! Doesn't your ass hurt on that fence?”

“Or the ones living between the US and Canadian border, as well as the ones living between the US and the Mexican border....”

“So why the anger when blacks mention it??? Seems some whites never wanted to face the truth of this country's history until Obama won and they had to face themselves. It shouldn't have took till 2008 for this insult to be acknowledged.”

“While I fully agree that the dark chapters of our history should never be covered up, the U.S. Capitol's Statuary Hall, created to honor heroes, is not the place to do this. This was a guy who openly and proudly found a way to violate one of the most important amendments to our Constitution. On top of this, nobody would ever guess from the official description of this guy from the Architect of the Capitol that he was part of one of those dark chapters. This is from the description:

"His greatest achievement in office was in education, to which he was dedicated after watching his mother make her mark when signing a deed. He felt that no lasting social reform could be accomplished without education. He supported increased salaries for teachers, longer school terms, and new school buildings; almost 3000 schools were built during his administration. Other reforms he supported included laws to establish fair election machinery, to prevent lynching, to erect a reformatory for boys, and to restrict child labor."”

“I agree.”
