Why just Michigan and Florida?: Why just Michigan and Florida? Didn't five (5) states jump the rules?

Thank you for your service: Ted, Thank you for your service to our country. Many thanks on this Memorial Day.

The time to worry about the sentence was BEFORE she committed the crime,not after: So sad. Her child will suffer because of this woman's actions. If she didn't want to go to jail, she shouldn't have been part of the arson. I'm supposed to feel sorry for her because she ...

lessons: Yes, maybe we can learn to landmark significant buildings and not a tired old and uninteresting building like a diner. Just how is it that you get to stop someone from using a building the way they want? Because you like pretty? How nice. Of course you aren't affected ...

RE: Take the Seattle tap water challenge: Oh please. This is all about the elite telling the rest of us what we can do. "You shouldn't be allowed to choose; you should be told what to do or restricted in what you can do. After all, it's for your own ...

thank you: Thank you for this review. As I could not make the performance, you brought out the essence of it & made it seem real to me. There is really nothing like a live performance of symphony music.

RE: You don't know nothing about Chicago!: I can summarize this Chicagoan's response into a single sentence: Don't criticize the Messiah of Illinois.

RE: yman is Seriously Stupid: Actually, there is little evidence that the politicians DON'T have in mind an endless demand for more of my money to spend as they see fit to stay in office. I'm all for hamstringing the government so they have to live within a budget and ...

RE: There's More: I don't see how you get from "we should elect the board" to "Medina-based egocentric thought process," but then, I don't really follow the thought of "your taxes you pay for roads should be shifted to non-road projects because I'm smarter than you." Wait. THAT'S kind of ...

RE: why the smear about john mccain?: Barry admits he'll keep troops in Iraq. So does John. Why the smear against John? Because it's a lazy, cheap crack, and the editor of this site lets this stuff pass. An _editor_ is responsible for content, and if there were an _editor_ ...

why the smear about john mccain?: You take an interesting article and demean it with a cheap crack about John McCain. Is Barry going to get our troops "out" of Germany and Korea, too? Or do you just think it's funny to repeat an Internet meme so people still think ...

Skolnik? Preservationist opponent?: Ask Skolnik how he's using county preservationist laws to protect his own property out in North Bend, and then ask, "Why does he want one set of laws for himself, and another set of laws for Seattle?"

RE: find your sanity: Sure she "misspoke" and her words were "taken out of context" and "nuance" and "shading" and all that. Well, welcome to reality. You want to play with the big boys, you gotta expect a little pushback. Last I looked, it was Barack who's running for Prexy, ...

RE: Divisive?: Perhaps they are saying she's divisive because she IS divisive - no other politician running for the President garners such strong visceral reactions from the opponents. McCain isn't seen as Evil Incarnate by Democrats; Obama isn't seen as the Boogieman by Republicans. Hillary is seen as the Arkansas ...

RE: Presidential politics: "Lying" as in "Lies." "Crook" as in "Crooked."

RE: Presidential politics: Hey, as long as you buy the albums... But let's be serious. Hillary might or might not be interesting for her positions on issues important for today - but so are the opinions/positions of 150 million other American women. Why pick such a deeply flawed candidate - ...

RE: Discourtesy: Oh my. Are you new to the Clintons or something? "Scorched earth" is exactly how the Clintons approach politics. If the Queen can't take criticism from her own country, how is she going to handle it when foreign countries give her a hard time?

RE: Why not?: I didn't read that Zoppi felt Hillary was the best candidate because of her issues, but that she is puzzled that women don't want to vote for Hillary and support her because she is a woman. Which is, of course, sexist. Nice that you deal with thoughts ...

Posted Wed, Feb 20, 6:50 a.m.

RE: Presidential politics: I won't vote for Hillary - EVER! - because she's a crook and a grifter. I don't care at all whether she is black or white, male or female. She's a crook. You who support her in the primary & general had better get your serving of ...

Ridiculous: So because I am not a woman, I cannot vote for HRC because she is not what I am. Fair is fair. After all, women should vote for HRC because she is a woman, too. Rather than point out what qualities of policy or accomplishment the candidate has, this ...
