1. Interesting that the host of a progressive program
is the only one willing to capitulate in light of recent events.

I await the same type of statement from the conservative voices out there...

2. Did you remember a sandwich, several good books, and a blanket?

8. I like Keith but it would have
been nice if he had done this before something
bad happened. Jon Stewart has been ringing this
bell for years starting with CNN's "Crossfire."
Maybe now we can find our way to some honest
discussion.

9. I don't recall Keith ever putting targets on republicans or...
their districts and I am sure he never put targets on Democrats. His rhetoric never empowered some crazy "left-winger" to go out and kill a republican or teabagger.

On the other hand an honest discussion about the issues of the day would be nice but do you really think the other side is going to cooperate? Maybe in the short term with a few of them but not in the long term. It would require them to compromise and "compromise" is not in their vocabulary. I don't have much faith with the other side. I live in SW Ohio and I am surrounded by right wing crazies and they are not going to change their ways. No way, no how!

11. I should have put that word in *quotes.*

It would have made my sarcasm more clear. :) Thanks for spotting my (unintentionally) mixed message. ;)

7. Well... now that he mentions it... ;-)
... he needs to show proper respect for J.S. Bach and drop the TOCATTA and FUGUE in D MINOR theme. Perhaps switch it out with something appropriately GOP... like the theme from BEDTIME FOR BONZO... ;-)
