In 2010 such a conversation would not surprise me. Red, yellow, black, and white, when will people see the light?

"'This guy was elected based simply on hope. What the bleep -- everything he's saying is on the teleprompter?'" At least President Obama can read a teleprompter. It has been proven that his predecessor, George W Bush had a barely adequate reading comprehension level to understand short, whispered "prompts" from his White House handlers and advisors. Rod is just showing his resentment at being caught by the "system' that he thought he controlled.

[Wait 'til Blago (he probably would have been a cabinet member or ambassador had he not been under indictment) rolls on your Dear Leader and his hypocrite Chi-kom buds. What will it say on the teleprompter then? "I am not a crook!"? You conveniently ignored Harry Reid's racist remark and went right into Bush Derangement Syndrome mode. Very predictable. -ED]
What can I say? You ain't ready for prime time 'dog. Saturday Night Live is still safe!

The Dems DEFINITELY have a DOUBLE STANDARD. but we have always know this. Almost EVERY DEMOCRAT has shown their two faced standards so what else is new?

Lombago: I have come to
appreciate your impeccable and reliable sources
for the news. If you ever need a job I am pretty
sure that one of the tabloids will jump at the
chance to have you on their staff (or is it

Yes, keep swinging away
with those gloves. That's a sure way to beat
your opponents (no pun intended). And yes, only
democrats have double standards.
Republicans never do (except maybe when
it comes to
family values). As long as we keep this
country divided into two main
political parties, we can get everything
done we need to get done. All we need to do is
to get the great Republicans back in office.
They did such a great job with this country. I
can hardly wait until they straighten it all out
again.

[Me too!. Too bad you
chose to defend the racist comments of these
Democrats by changing the subject. Typical lefty
hypocrisy -- on MLK's birthday, no less. -ED]
...The gist of all your
blogs is that Republicans walk on water and
democrats are evil. Look at the comments on your
site. They are all anti-democrat - accusing
democrats of having double standards as though
Republicans are without fault. Most politicians
are evil.
So you keep swinging away with the gloves trying
to beat your opponents. As long as we are
divided we will never get out of the stupid rut
that our country is in. So keep driving the
wedges with the sledge hammer, and keep swinging
away with the gloves. It does so much good for
the world.

[It is an outright lie to
say that I do not post lefty comments. Along
with posting your smarmy diatribes from time to
time (it appears to be twice now in this
piece alone if you read the previous comment)
it is my stock-in-trade to answer back ALL
of the kommies who argue my points. Your
credibility is totally shot and I am posting
this one to prove you wrong again!

It fits in perfectly with
the democrats hypocrisy. Consider Ted Kennedy's
actions at Chappaquiddick. Had that been you or
I we would still be in jail. I seem to remember
a statement made by a former POTUS "I did not
have sex with that woman." And all the resulting
support for him just being a "man." And later on
his statement that he did it "because he could."
Had a sitting Republican committed those actions
the howling would still be a cacophony of
shrieks from them. In my 63 years on earth and
of the past 45 of them being able to vote, it
always seemed that the democrats used the
negative and demon-ization process to try and
ruin their opponents reputations. It would be a
huge step in politicians favor to stop the
double-talk and double standards, but they just
cant seem to help themselves. I remember a term
from my Latin class that sums it up - anguis in
herba that seems to fit their persona.

I look forward to you
reporting on the Pat Robertson reaction to the

[It sure is and Robertson has been a loose
cannon and arguably a hypocrite for a long time.
But the subject du jour is DEMOCRAT hypocrisy,
loose cannon-ism and racism. Changing it
only helps to proves my point that lefties won't
confront their double standard.
Furthermore, Robertson is not on the public
payroll. -ED]
If I get a hair piece

Reid's comment wasn't
racist. It was an observation that the white
American voting public is generally racist.
Obama wasn't offended, why do you pretend to be?

[I don't pretend to be
offended, I am personally offended when
people play the race card -- especially people
who would otherwise, themselves, pretend to be
offended and would ask for your head or mine on
a plate if we ever got caught saying what they
said. I am particularly offended by the
liberals' double standard and if Obama wasn't
such a wimp he would decry what has been said as
though he is still a candidate for his office
rather than an incumbent kommie hack. -ED]
I listened to McCain the

negative, hostile and degrading they say is
insignificant, but if said by anyone on the
