Please tell us the minimum requirements to become a US Senator.

Let us de-code this missive: 1. Because Obama was elected the Russian "nuclear build-up" is being ignored by the media. So if it's ignored by the media then . . . what? Our elected officials and intelligence agencies don't know about it because they only get their information from American TV? Help us here. 2. Barack Obama "ignores world events." You know this because . . . ? Oh, because American TV is only reporting on Obama's attention to the worst US economic crisis since the Great Depression, right? So that means he's not paying attention to world events? 3. The markets are dumping now because they think Obama, Pelosi and Reid will do something stupid in the future? So, the markets have been tanking since September because of a collective vision of a future decision by Obama correcting an economic crisis that hadn't yet occurred? I need a better broker, he NEVER saw that coming. 4. What is the definition of a "Super Power" and how do you oppose we "stop" this from happening?

You're homophobic. (You asked . . .)

Good analysis. Obama hasn't taken power and he's already driving these guys mad because by all indications he's not going to easily fall into their right-wing radio world view. "He's a socialist!!!"

Another well thought out analysis. While away were you sharpening your your political philosophy at the University of Angry White Guys?

How would you feel if she burned the flag? (or if McCain was elected and she supported Obama?) It's understandable why people get upset when a flag is disgraced, and while I don't condone flag burning, I do believe that one our Nation's greatest strengths is to allow it as a manner of free speech. If the KKK and the anarchists want to "peacefully" march, let them. If right wing radio wants to blather on, go right ahead. If Farrakahn wants to spew his nonsense then give him room. I hope every American will fight for their right to freely express their opinions.

I suggest that everyone reads the entire article and not cherry pick sentences. Overall, it's seems reasonable enough to give a serious look.

Doubt Franken will make it up - and, frankly, as a Dem I'm not sure I want to see him in the Senate. Way too goofy. Would rather have two less Senate seats in exchange for defeating that prick Saxby Chambliss. Also, I think Dems may have a better chance of toppling Stevens when all the votes are counted. (see: 538.com for analysis).

You read all that?

I voted for Shays when I lived there (14 years ago). I'm a strong D but thought Shays was a very good Congressman. Suffered for the sins of his party.

Did you mean to infer that if you do not serve in the military you're not honorable? Isn't it possible to do other things to be "honorable?" Like serving your community for little pay while you could have easily made millions as a lawyer? Just asking.

Don't you mean, "Have quite a few drinks and take target practice?"

So you're the all-knowing Messiah all along! How ironic. Do you charge for upcoming state lottery winning numbers?

F-U chicken littles.

And I object to changing the picture on your avatar.

Blind hate and distrust isn't so great either. Unless, of course, you just KNOW things will get worse under Obama.

Agreed.

Fox News is in full hysteria mode. Fox and GOP websites are indistinguishable.

I was thinking more like Benson meets Three's Company.

"The Plumber and Ms. Palin." The Governor is having a hard time in Alaska when Joe the Plumber makes a service call. Someone makes a bad joke that Joe should be the Chief of Staff and the Governor takes this as a serious suggestion. Hilarity ensures. Lots of scatological humor, toilet jokes, riffs about cleaning out the pipes, etc. See pilot for details.

I'm betting closed casket.

Not cool.

Dogs and Cats living together . . . !!!!

Wow. The team should feel ashamed.

Take McGee out.
