1. It's sickening reading some of the responses over on YouTube.
There are some real sick bastards out there just jumping with joy.

3. They are the McCain voters that MUST BE DEFEATED.
So read those hate filled rants, then tell me how you will not vote for a Democrat unless your favorite candidate gets the nom.

6. Go and vote every one of their posts down
I just did. The one with the name Blackwater whatever....well, choosing that as a name speaks volumes, I think.

9. I followed your suggestion,.......
Rated them all down (even had to get a new password) and nothing is showing.
:mad:
There are so many filled with hate...much like the AOL comments. Almost seems like a reflection of the country as a whole.....it's so sad .....and scary.


peace~

7. I heard that prognosis on Ed Schultz ...
and I told Mrs. ZBDent ... but Byrd did sound like he was talking of one who had passed away ...

10. There are moments that transcend differences
Sen. Byrd spoke as only the deepest of friends - and such friendship can form in a minute or survive the decades can.

Sen. Spector spoke as a colleague, one who has shared experiences and respect. His words were not pro forma, but heartfelt.

It is to this lost commonality, this abandoned civility, this despised receptivity, this reviled reasoning, that Obama appeals.

17. I wish I could give a warm hug to Sen. Byrd.
Sen. Spector's gracious comments were encouraging. Doctors can be wrong; I hope they are in Sen. Kennedy's case.
