In reply to both Ingiro and GoodStuff:

Everyone with a television knows that Brit and Paris are old news, but they are both almost universally reviled for their spoiled and shallow behavior. That is their value in this ad.

(That and the Mandingo/white girl thing.)

(Actually, I misplaced this post. It was supposed to be a reply to SFCWallace's list of McCain positives and Obama negatives.)

My sentiments exactly.

If the oil companies raised their prices to offset the windfall profits tax, but retained the same profit margin, why would they not still be subject to the aforementioned tax?

As a once-respected general who may never be able to redeem himself fully, this "not-endorsing McCain-and-advising-Obama-from-the-outside" role may represent Powell at his most useful.

Now, thanks to the clueless Bushies, all Obama has to do is remain presidential. He doesn't even have to give his speech at the famous gate. These dopes have shot themselves in the foot yet again.

Jane Harman would have us consider 9/11 Truth sites as providing material support to terrorists, which would leave them open to "enemy combatant" treatment at the hands of a would-be unitary executive with a pocket full of executive orders and perverse signing statements. The more I learn about her, the more I distrust her.

The same is true of Jay Rockefeller.

They both talk a good game, but act like closet Republicans.

Whoever they're beholden to, it ain't us.

Mr. Haynes,

Please pay particular attention to the walk/don't walk signals in my neighborhood.

The crosswalks here are torturous.
