#1 Helluva waste of time and ink. The folks that read the New Yorker were probably heading this way anyways.

#2 Barry, the choice of the east and west coast elite, Hollywood left, intelligentsia, wanna-be socialists, and aging radicals and domestic terrorists.

#4 From a Reader's Digest poll:
Barack Obama's proclamation last July to being a "citizen of the world" was affirmed Monday as a new poll -- taken before the August conventions -- showed that in 16 out of 17 countries surveyed he was the overwhelming choice to be the next president of the United States.

The lone country to prefer a John McCain presidency: the U.S.
I just pray that US voters are fairly represented, as I don't want a president that looks after the world's interests before mine.

#5 And why, is that voters should care about the opinion of a bunch of a journalists, a profession who is notorious for not recruiting neither the mater nor the more honest people who leave high school?

#6 I could not possibly care less about what the editors of tne New Yukker think. As with the NYT, anything they say has to be checked every way possible for lies and anything they like is probably detrimental to the United States.

#7 That's a surprise. I wonder who the NY Times will back?

#9 We cannot expect one man to heal every wound, to solve every major crisis of policy.

#10 GWB is the greatest of all Presidents.

More than anything else, America needs: 4 more years of GWB. Another 8 would be better.

VOTE McCAIN; SUSTAIN BUSH GENIUS

#11 Another fine product of the Obama-Ayers Annenberg Chicago school system comes to grace this modest web site. Bomb throwing and running away comes naturally to these indoctrinated tykes.

#12 I hope everyone understands that media outlets are OWNED BY INDIVIDUALS who determine content, direction, etc. The people who work for them, work for their boss (the owner) and do what they're told. The owners are so invisible, but trust me, they're calling the shots and like to manipulate public opinion. They are like the owners of sports teams (only in the very loosest sense), in that no one really notices the owners, just the coaches and the players.
