Nice line.

Oh, and I agree with you. But that line is gold.

I also like that line. I don't appreciate the tone of Radar's post.

He is correct that she is under investigation. If the charges are proved true, which is unlikely in the next two months, it would have brought up serious questions on her professional judgment, inviting comparisons to Nixon's "enemies list".

I have not heard anything about a teenage daughter being pregnant. It doesn't matter because it does not have a bearing on her fitness. If she lied about it to the press or anyone else, that's a personal issue. I would also like Radar to post a link or any kind of attribution to back up the statement.

Her stance on creationism does seem to paint her as a conservative ideologue.

McCain is entering office as one of the oldest US presidents. Even given the fact that '50 is the new 30' or whatever, he has had serious health issues. Even some Republicans are trying to get him to agree to serve only one term (try getting that promise to stick). This means that she will be under increased scrutiny because going into office she is probably more likely to end up serving as president than any vice president in recent history.

Still, Radar cheapens his message by resorting to quips like 'Depends'. I am proud to say that while I do not know any liberals who decorate their workspaces with extremely negative clippings, stickers, etc, I have seen work areas with anti-liberal items that I find offensive no matter who is the target.

I have seen stickers that literally demonize Obama (an O with little horns) on office walls. I have not seen pictures of McCain in diapers anywhere that I've been.

There are a lot of jokes about Cheney, but most of them lack the vitriol I hear when I listen to conservatives talk about liberals.

Most of the really awful stuff towards McCain seems to be coming from 'libertarians' and conservatives.
