#1 Good luck on that happening. One would think that age would have mellowed her but she has just become more shrill. She is a true blue Bush hater of the first water. You want to get people like her to change you have to hit them in the pocket book. It's all they give a damn about in the long run.

#2 Why ask for an apology? Simply make a little note of it in the back of the mind someplace, for later reference. At some point in time, there will be an opportunity to rub her face in it.

#3 exactly - Mollie Ivins witout any trace of humor. Best thing that can happen is to besmearch her reputation and obituary. F*&k her. Her apology would contain so many buts, ifs and insincerities I rather she doesn't bother. Bitch

#5 Can't have a conscription US Army cuase it uses force. Can't have a volunteer Army cause they are mercenaries. The only thing that will satisfy people like Clift is no US Army. Kumbaya, lord, kumbaya.

#6 She'd support the PLA or NK's if they were against America and Bush

#7 The real question is did anyone attack her on the show for such idiocy. I doubt it. The show has been worthless for some time.
