1. Sadly, in most cases, what you see is what you get.
You'd be surprised how dumb & shallow those people really are in fact.

7. I'd love to believe we are playing 3D chess...
that our guys are so much smarter and
are so nimbly outmaneuvering the right-wingers
that they don't even know it.

heck we don't even know it.

but it sure would be nice.

6. Randi Rhodes just dissected the bill on her radio show.
She is quite pleased with the bill and broke it down step-by-step why. I think some people are jumping the gun with their spleen-venting.

12. So many are automatically pre-disposed to spleen-venting.
They just don't know what else to do.

11. You might want to ration your exposure to those making such claims, then.
I can only handle so much before my brain melts from reading all the sackcloth and ashes posts/blogs/boards.
