As an Alaskan resident, it's not about selecting a convicted felon to the Senate, it's about keeping the seat "Republican".

And yet during the primary, when all you had to choose from were Republicans, you guys still picked Stevens.

And I think that I am Michaels friend, And I'm a felon, And he always seemed to be a friend to me even that we disagree, but then again I could be wrong.

Don't mistake my civility for friendship.

I know that most of you liberals hate my guts because I'm a believer and hate my religion and want to see it destroyed.

Most liberals are religious Christians. Just because most atheists are liberals, doesn't mean that most liberals are atheists.

lol, If it were not for my Micheal I would still be writing one word sentences, he has done more good for me then you know.

I'm not sure how to feel about that.

Homophobia suits you well.

lol I'm not scared of gay people I just don't like what they want do to me country. And as always I was talking about donkys in their many forms.

And I think that I am Michaels friend, And I'm a felon, And he always seemed to be a friend to me even that we disagree, but then again I could be wrong. It's just a stupid joke bro.

And I have a good amount of empathy and can read between the line and of course I can read what you write plainly, and I know that most of you liberals hate my guts because I'm a believer and hate my religion and want to see it destroyed.

I'm sorry that I'm am not evolved enough as a Christian to let you get away with talking smack about every good thing under the SON, got to much liberal left in me to act right.

Bit is a brilliant conservative that always gives you facts and sound reason, BIG Z tells you how he feels and I make fun of you for being so proud of your indoctrination, as I have a good time doing so, and in the hope I can show you how you look to a lot of us.

And Mr. Dill does the caption contests, It's not his fault if what you write most of the time looks like a silly picture for him to test a few zingers on.

lol, If it were not for my Micheal I would still be writing one word sentences, he has done more good for me then you know.

Of course, our culture doesn't have entirely consistent rules on this topic, depending on whether you extort or whether the free stuff is freely offered. But that's the less charitable, but plausible, version of what Stevens did.

Bithead is perfectly capable of reasoned and sensible debate, I've had several with him over the years. Right now, he's deliberately choosing not to do so.

Bit continues to play small ball, and I suspect that is the only game he understands. At any rate, after last night, he is irrelevant. I think we have too much work to do on damage control for the country to spend much time on him...

GA and Zelsdorf, however, are a lost cause.

So, you really propose to ignore what he did to those Marines for his own political purposes? If you look close, you'll note that, and not his 'racist' insults was my stated objection.

So Murtha made statements based on what he believed was factually true. That's your objection? Or that Murtha was outraged that US Marines would do such a thing? Are you just outraged that somebody would criticize a US Marine? The only explanation that makes logical sense is that you just want to be outraged, and this is the only thing you can come up with to justify it.

I'm sorry, Michael, but that's not been my experience. In the 6 months I've been here, I've yet to see Bit (or G.A., Zelsy, Rodney, et al) make a sustained coherent argument that doesn't rely on invective or Area 51 aliens.

and hey some of your friends are felons, but then again some of mine have a lot to do with being an ass, in more definitions then one, you know, what I mean, buddy?

Oh, G.A., you just exude class. Homophobia suits you well.

But worse? Sorry, but being a felon is worse than being an ass.

It depends on what your definition of ass is.

Agreed on JJ and Lewis Grizzard. Twenty years or so ago I laughed until tears were streaming down my face over his routines. The "sitting up with the dead" story, how Grizzard, in French, means "sissy welfare recipient" and many many others. What a guy.

Oh yeah, the thing about his daddy not getting a good toe-hold!!

Wait, so now you're saying that committing a felony is less immoral that calling your constituents names? I think it's time for you to step back and re-evaluate where you're taking this argument Bithead.

Michael, if Bitsy does that, then his arguments will *begin* to make sense. Maybe it's just me, but I can't imagine a world (visualize my best Don LaFontaine voice here!) in which there exists a logical and reasonable Bitsy.

Bithead is perfectly capable of reasoned and sensible debate, I've had several with him over the years. Right now, he's deliberately choosing not to do so.

I can't make the distinction much clearer than that.

Oh, stop it, Bitsy. You're being coy. You know darn well you can't make any distinctions.
