Hello, Lucas. You ever feel like yesterday's news? Because, in all honesty, that's what you are. This is not the end of the world. I've been yesterday's news around here at least four times that I can think of. It isn't the quality of what you write, it isn't the subject matter -- these things are important, but they don't make winners in and of themselves? What does? I wish I could tell you. I've had articles make me a pariah that I

well, it's 1800 and counting...when George Bush has killed as many americans as died on 9/11, will we get to declare war on him? of course, using his logic, we'd have to declare war on a completely unrelated but geographically close person...preferably one with lots of oil... looks like cheney's screwed... PS >> When a person of kingbee's intelligence "pursues his own agenda" it's usually because the article itself was so vap

you can keep a dog that bites, it's a matter of patience and training -- you might not let that dog play with small children, but a dog that has bitten someone isn't the end of the world...

my mom-in-law had one just 4 weeks ago...she recovered very well and is feeling great...I can't give you "prayers" or "vibes," but perhaps some good news from a similiar situation and some best wishes will suffice.

Maybe they should try the shock collar on the kid. Or, every time the kid hits the dog, the kid gets hit. Perhaps harsh, but the Good Book says "spare not the rod and spoil not the child," so that's good enough for me.

I'm going to remember this article the next time you go off about 'loony loopy luddites.' What you meant to say is: "Ignorant Stereotypes are just that...unless I, Dr. Guy, am the one promoting them." It's kind of like the right's view on "activist" judges. As long as they are overturning laws in ways the right agrees with, they're fine. Otherewise, they're bad ol' activist judges.

Yeah, or the inevitable cut and past of a whole article just to type something like "See *there* YOU liberal *idiot!" It happens on both sides -- blogging is not a true cross-section of people, although we like to delude ourselves into thinking we're some kind of "voice of the people." It always cracks me up to hang out on here for a few days and then go into the "real world" and find out pretty quick that everybody here is much too upset abo

Dude, it wasn't just that he wasn't wearing inappropriate clothing. The Guardian has a whole list of fuck-ups available. The guy was apparently already being restrained when the first jack booted storm trooper...I mean London Police officer shot him from about 12 inches away. He was subsequently shot 6 more times. Stutefish, my new vote for most distasteful blogger, has given us his usual soulful and compassionate response.

The morlocks were the intellectually superior, albeit cannabalistic progeny of the human race. I thought us lefties were supposed to be blind, naive, and stupid? Wouldn't that make us the Eloi? Having said that, I actually have to agree with Dr. Guy (it does happen from time to time). I quit reading DU about a year ago when I began getting dehydrated from the diarrhea and vomiting. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/JU/smiles/La

Brandie, Brandie, Brandie...I'll let you have your delusions of redneck Texan superiority...just remember that us hillbillies have the high ground. I think Texas gave us George Bush because they were mad at Arkansas for tying them in the "Asshat President" contest. LBJ wasn't enough for you people, eh? hahahahahahahahaha I did my undergrad work at a school who has "Whoo P

If somebody from Hollywood, California driving a Cadillac Escalade with a "John Kerry '04" sticker had done something similiar at a pro-war rally, this site would probably overload and shut down with all the vitriol from the conservative majority. As it is, I've got people on my threads condoning what happened because "They ain't on public property" (roads, shoulders, and yes, ditches are public property). It's hypocritical, and also exactly what I e

yeah, Gid, i'm sure I'm one of the horrid lefties you're talking about...but to say that this sort of thing has only happened recently from the right? geez, you got a short memory, my friend...every regular poster on the politics board has engaged in it at one point or another...it's not a phenomenon geared toward left or right, it's a phenomenon brought about by the extremism that seems inevitable among political bloggers -- even you and especially m

oh, KB, that 20/20 crap is for liberals...everybody knows that ABC stands for "Anything But Conservatives"...couldn't you get some Bill "Falafel" O'Reilly talking points about it?

I was hoping it was going to be more of a Jay-Z style "Big Pimpin'" article, because in that case, I'd love to be one of those supa fly pimps of the left. As for the actual article, kingbee's summed it up nicely. as far as sex slaves go, tom delay has that all sewn up in the mariannas and saipan where his cl

I've been yacking about Rove for awhile, and along with my stuff about Tom DeLay and Jack Abramoff, I kept getting told that I was overreacting...well, Jack's been indicted and there's this big investigation of Rove going on. And DeLay? He's too busy propping up his sweatshops in the Pacific to help out his friends over in the White House...Rove and Libby might go down for this, but only because they'll be the fall guys for the real perpetrators -- B

the only problem i have with the book the article mentions is that the author has never actually interviewed bush or analyzed him...that's not really good to present something as a scientific work without any first hand evidence... then again, I've thought W was bugshit for years, and his recent remarks about Iran just hammer the point home furthur...
