There are only two people to choose from. Give me more options and I'd be happy to discuss them. This is what we have to work with.

It's disgusting and revolting that our administration would even countenance a discussion about what *kinds* of torture are ok.

Get it. People are being tortured RIGHT NOW in our names. Electing McCain won't change that. Electing Obama *might*.

Let's see....someone who says it's ok, and someone who says it's not. Hm....choices, choices.

Look, there is no doubt the political system sucks, but I'm not prepared yet to take personal responsibility for pitchforking George Bush down Pennsylvania Ave., as much as I can enjoy the day dream a little. My only recourse is to vote.

Yup, I couldn't agree more. It is fine with me if the media pins both

Bingo! This is the worst year yet when it comes to the spinning of

media!

Sophisticated political operatives and highly successful political
writers and highly experienced political ad-makers are smarter about
all this than you and I. And they get paid big money as they get ever
better. They know what works. They know us.

And so we are being manipulated. And the proof of it is we are
responding to what they produce.

Predictably.
