3. Good article...but
I counted three grammatical errors. If you want to sound credible, check your grammar. I wonder if that was the writer's or the editor's fault.

8. Both.
No one's perfect.

I had an editor tell me in op-ed pieces, it doesn't matter if you write it on the back of popcycle wrappers in red crayon, as long as the sentiment and the editing are good, it shouldn't matter.

(I, for one, am a horrible speller. At least I admit it.)

4. IMHO
Seeing what's going on in the Senate today. I have to believe that this site and the efforts made by DU'ers are monitored by Washington figures.

I'd be willing to guess that some interns read this site and reported to thier Senator the support Boxer was getting from the Democratic Underground base..

32. The truth is just the "truth".
Edited on Wed Jan-26-05 01:20 AM by TankLV
Whether it is mean, horrible, partisan, brutal or some other meaningless adjective, is dependant on how far the recipient of that truth has strayed from the truth.

This headline, and countless others like it, vividly illustrate how far the truth and factual reporting has been usurped by someting that is neither and is in fact approaching the very core of evil.

Very illuminating, indeed!

15. I love Sen. Barbara Boxer, if only she were a man, I would marry him.

:kick:

Is there a male senator with Boxer strength of character.
I what to move to CA now, where a great Senator lives.
The people of CA must really love her now and be so pride of their
Senator. I know I would be and I am as a citizen on the left.

37. Dag!!!
In a Senate where the balance is now tipped 55-45 toward a Republican caucus that for the most part puts party loyalty above duty to country, and where there are still too many Democrats who continue to preach the failed "can't-we-all-just-get-along" mantra that has relegated the party to minority status, there was never any chance that the national security advisor's record of failure and deception would prevent her from taking change of the State Department.

(snip)

Boxer read out the statistics, it was a devastating moment -- and a rare one. Seldom do senators accuse prospective Cabinet members of lying. Rice knew she was taking a harder hit than anyone had expected. The Secretary of State nominee tried to get the upper hand with classic Washington spin. "Senator," Rice whined, "I have never, ever lost respect for the truth in the service of anything. It's not in my nature. It's not in my character. And I would hope we could have this conversation... without impugning my credibility or my integrity."


Dag, still can't stop lying, eh Skeeza?

this is one of the most candid articles I've ever seen written... although the writer needed to have the spelling checked by someone else--he/she used the wrong words, correctly spelled, though, in a few places. But I'll let that slide due to the content of the article.
