1. Um, you're not kidding.....
BTW, for the record, we are not fascists, but the other side is led by communists.

For the record, FUCK you Kristinn.

2. LOL . . . I like how he doesn't even notice he's being addressed as Ms.
Taylor.

That and the fact that he uses "Peace Out." as a closing? Who the fuck does this dimwit think he's kidding?

30. This is the best:
Foggy Bottom, Washington, D.C.: Since I want no part in this political spectacle (or the cold, snowy weather), I will avoid all the Inauguration events tomorrow.

My question is why can't political discourse be something more than childish and petty name-calling. One side calls the other fascists; the other side responds by labeling the first side communists. And back and forth it goes, adding little, if anything, to political discussion -- other than the best way to get press attention is by saying outrageous and hyperbolic statements.

In your mind, is it possible that the average Joes and Janes who do not support Bush are simply Americans who believe the Bush policies are seriously wrong, instead of simply labeling these people as "leftists" or whatever? Are you interested in discussing issues with people on the other side, or just yelling at them?

Kristinn Taylor: I talk with folks from all political stripes on a regular basis. One of the great things about street demonstrations, especially in our nation's capital, is the chance to talk with so many people. We've had an open dialogue with our fellow Americans and visitors form overseas for six years, now. It's great!

BTW, for the record, we are not fascists, but the other side is led by communists.

3. I read about half of it.
The "we are not fascists, but the other side is led by communists" bit was a hoot.

4. Another golden nugget:
Washington, D.C.: You wrote "Ted Kennedy's language is the same as Osama bin Laden's language when it comes to criticizing the Bush administration. That's scary to me as an American."

What if what he's saying is true? Are you suggesting he shouldn't tell the truth if it means that the American public will question our Commander in Chief's motivation for war? You are implying the President is above making mistakes, and therefore no one should criticize him -- he should be given a green card without scrutiny.

Kristinn Taylor: Ay carumba. I'll let this one stand on its own.


Thanks, Bart. Great answer.

7. I like when they ask him what his differences are with the Bush admin
He says he and his group often disagree with the Bush administration and have 'spirited debates', but when pressed the only real difference was the 'guest worker program' and the Bush admin and Congressional GOP are 'too nice to the Democrats'.

5. I read the whole thing.
This was my favorite:

"Lincoln, Neb.: How do you people expect to get any credibility when you say stupid stuff like anyone who opposes Bush is a Saddam sympathizer or anyone who opposed the terrorism policies pursued by this administration is a terrorism supporter? You people are dangerous loonies in my opinion."

8. Funny, mentions 1968 as "the season of assassinations"
As I remember it, the assassinations were all of people promoting peace and equality. Funny how those leftists are blamed for that!

9. There's just too much to ridicule!
All the "commie" leaders of the left! Whoa, I guess that the KKK usually is doing multiple duty on the Right's committees; them and the NRA and the militias who think that Rush Limbaugh is a liberal.

10. I always thought that FR
as a website looked like a bad high school HTML project. After reading that bit of bovine excrement, I am positive that Kristinn is an undersexed, self-righteous, egotistical school boy. What a nerd!! It sounds like he just trying to play it cool. What a tool!

15. What a flaming idiot
"Lincoln, Neb.: How do you people expect to get any credibility when you say stupid stuff like anyone who opposes Bush is a Saddam sympathizer or anyone who opposed the terrorism policies pursued by this administration is a terrorism supporter? You people are dangerous loonies in my opinion.

Kristinn Taylor: How do you expect to be taken seriously when you mischaracterize my remarks. Face the facts. By calling to "Bring the Troops Home Now!", all that does is encourage the enemy to try wear down morale by continuing the fight. The best way to bring the troops home is to give them the support they want and need. They'll come home when they finish the job in Iraq. That's what they want, and if you say you support them, then you should want that, too. "

What an asshole. Saying we want the troops home now has NOTHING to do with supporting the enemy. You only wish it did, you fucking asswipe.

22. I heard him on NPR
saying that allowing protests along the inaugural route was akin to allowing terrorists access to the president, since anti-war protestors are terrorists.

what a tool.

27. Why on EARTH does the FR get an on-line discussion in WaPo?
and an actual governor is coming to their ball?

Okay they must be way better funded than I thought. I figured that it was used as a sounding board- a focus group if you will- but this is giving them a credibility that anyone who has spent 5 minutes on that site would know is not warranted.
