@entonces: Passion and politeness are not mutually exclusive. My point was that it's written as a water-cooler-esque discussion between two friends and thus not intended to be the be-all-end-all in neutral political analysis. I view my personal role as being more neutral, because I don't feel like I have a dog in the… Read more

@whyknot,Political Party Girl: Uhh, you ladies do what makes you happy, but I think I'll stick to doing Crappy Hour in my PJs. Read more
@KimberleeJ: Well, as I've pointed out before, that's Moe's deal to a great degree, not mine. I don't love either of them. And we spent a great deal of time parsing both the copying issue and the "proud to be an American" issue this week. I view my role in it as more official nerd/observer. I take your point, and so… Read more
@Political Party Girl: I don't know how you missed it! I have a ton of 'em on Facebook for some kids from my high school, but the thread is here. My personal picture, which includes the guy I had a crush on is here. Read more
@J.D.Regent: Honestly, I gave up using his name during sex. I had watched too much Wayne's World, I just couldn't do it without wanting to giggle and he and I didn't have the kind of sex that got better with laughter. Obviously, the relationship didn't last that long. Read more
@KimberleeJ: Although, if you read through that one, Moe and I called ourselves nerds, intense ones, and once to prove a point about Chelsea being treated unfairly, we linked to pictures of ourselves in 1992. They were, um, scary. And nerdy. Nerd's no worse a word to me than bitch. I'm a nitch? A nerdtch? But, yes,… Read more
@BadenBaden: S/he too has degenerated in the course of this thread. I'm guilty of ignoring him/her mostly because s/he reminds me too much of a certain set of co-workers who I prefer not to think about. Read more
@entonces: You have a habit of starting out that way and degenerating into the kind of comment I just pointed to pretty quickly. I get the motivations of the others I pointed to even when they're mean- I live in DC, I understand how people who live, believe and breathe this shit can get overwrought. But, also, I just… Read more
@J.D.Regent: I fucked a guy named Ralph. George would be a step up for me, name wise. I'd have no problem screaming it through multiple orgasms. Read more
@Political Party Girl: And that's why I think you're cuter in real life than in your avatar. Read more
@katastic: My point is just this: if there is consistent pressure from a group of people for everyone else to "go away" and to "fuck off," that's not cool. It smacks of wanting an echo chamber, rather than a discussion. And a couple of brave people have piped up today that they've stopped reading/commenting for that… Read more
@SinisterRouge: I didn't mean you had to leave, I just meant that yesterday (which I napped through) and today have been particularly egregious examples of a bunch of regulars telling people to fuck off and it's kind of uncool. You have said you don't like Kos and have left because people stomped all over you for… Read more
@SinisterRouge: Ok, so, seriously, the bagging on people who disagree with you needs to stop. Everyone who disagrees with you is not stupid, childish or naive and everyone has the right to participate in these discussions. Please stop telling people to go away and leave you alone here, because then there won't be a… Read more
@MissKittyFantastico: It ain't just one of them. Congress has a high-than-average divorce rate. Read more
Also, for everyone who is like "sex toys aren't illegal in Texas" yes, there is in fact a law against selling (or loaning them). Like many other laws in this great land of ours, that law was rather obviously selectively enforced. Yes, that law was ruled violative of the 14th Amendment right of Texans earlier this… Read more
@SinisterRouge: Donna Brazile is an uncommitted superdelegate, a former Bill Clinton campaign senior adviser and, as mentioned, former head of Al Gore's campaign. If she'd committed to Obama, she wouldn't be listed as uncommitted. Read more
