I never allow Faux News on any of my TVs, even when I'm away. The thought of those treasonous liars on my box makes me sick. They wouldn't recognize truth, fairness or balance if they came up and bit their Pinocchio noses. I have no respect for any official or candidate who appears on this propaganda machine purporting to be a news outlet. Then again, I don't watch any news programs, with the occasional exception of BBC World News, the News Hour on PBS, or Bill Moyers. With so much conglomerate control, they all slant the coverage. Terry McAuliffe, remove thy head from thy posterior, and stay far away from Faux News.

Have to agree with the post about feeling conflicted about this issue. Sam Seder definitely deserves a daily show, but after the way Air America treated my favorite host, Randi Rhodes, I'm not sure staying with them is the way to go. Still, a good host is better than no host. Do something right, AA, and give Sam a chance to fill Randi's rather large shoes.

I used to wear one of McCain's POW bracelets as a kid. While I honor his sacrifice, you can make the same argument about him that so many other make about today's vets. McCain came from a naval family; he chose to serve in Vietnam, though no doubt he would have been drafted. It would have been tricky for his naval officer father to get him out of service, unlike Baby Bush and Cheney. The reason people feel frustrated by McCain stems from his wanting to use the soldiers to prop his campaign, while not providing leadership in helping them secure much needed benefits.

I don't disagree about the volunteer services, but as the aunt of a young man serving in the Navy and the former English professor to others in the services, I have to point out none of these volunteers ever expected to be dragged into an endless war based on lies. This war is a shameful pipeline to war profiteering by Bush, Cheney & Co. As a former Art History professor and lifelong humanitarian, I feel horrified by the destruction of lives and ancient civilization just to pad the pockets of these monsters, who usurped the White House to begin with. What happens when another country deems them dictators and attempts to rescue us? They would be justified, according to this administration's logic.

I am just as disgusted by the spineless Democrats who allowed the administration to get away with these crimes. Many voters are ready to say a plague on both your houses. I'm seriously considering immigration, as are many other Americans.

It strikes me as rather amusing that so many of you rave about education, when your own clearly seems woefully inadequate. Rather than flaming each other on websites, perhaps you could apply that same energy to brushing up on your grammar and spelling. Sorry to be blunt, but all these errors are like chalk on a blackboard for a dedicated grammarian. And for those who question whether the government could afford more help for the military, perhaps they could if they weren't wasting so much money on Haliburton, Blackwater and other fatcat contractors who received no-bid contracts that should be illegal. The government also seems to find billions to bail out the greedy, stupid banking system that handed out sub-prime loans as if they were candy. And where is the government when it comes to protecting us against the robber barons of big oil? Ask your good buddy McCain why he has so many lobbyists on his staff. And while you're at it, ask Clinton and Obama the same tough questions. When will Americans learn they must rise up against corporate greed, which is what landed us in this mess in the first place?

Whatever ass wipe posted that lesbian comment in my name: fuck you up your fucking asshole! How dare you sign something libelous in my name! What kind of crappy security does this blog have? I'm withdrawing my support of this site.
