Why people keep on saying ajax "effects"? - directeur via NoiseRiver

This is the AJAX I know (second to the AJAX of Greek lore)! - JA Castillo

It originally meant XHR, but it's not uncommon for people to misuse it to mean DHTML. - Jason Wehmhoener

Texas, Georgia and Mississippi is weak GOP? HOLY COW! - Christopher Welle via Bookmarklet

huh. and just last week, all the news folks were shouting that my state MN was one of the most important battle state in the area..well atleast it's not GOP. - genieyclo

PA, VA, FL, OH, MO, NC, CO, NV ... really amazing but ... I don't trust it ... I'd rather keep pretending Obama is behind by 5% points in battleground states. Anyone supporting Obama should be pushing *harder* now than ever before. You have to keep pedaling through the crest of the mountain. - AJ Kohn

No...I'm watching with utter fascination at the unfolding train wreck. This is the worst implosion of a presidential campaign in my lifetime. - Alex "Maverick" Scoble

"Viennese artist, Friedensreich Hundertwasser, has designed what has become one of the more unique and visually stimulating buildings in the world. With over 1000 unique windows, individualized handles on windows and doors, a living roof, café, parking garage, restaurant, bar, playground, and a running stream, the Waldspirale in Darmstadt, Germany is an architectural wonder. Upon first glance, second and third, one is simply enchanted and astonished. The apartment building contains 105 apartments, with no two windows alike. The overall design follows Hundertwasser’s dogma ‘gegen die gerade linie’ (against the straight line), and its off-center placement of windows is aptly described as ‘aus der reihe tanzen (dancing out of line). Each of has a personality of their own, and no two are alike." - Cee Bee via Bookmarklet

A close McCain friend said the reason is clear: McCain is miserable about having to run a campaign that’s antithetical to his persona. “He is basically having to be somebody that he isn’t,” said the friend, who remains strongly supportive. “He is just not a guy that goes on the attack in public. For him to be on the attack constantly, attacking Obama’s character … McCain is uncomfortable with that, and it’s made him grumpy.” - MikeAmundsen

What Tad said. - Mavericks of Troy, NV!

I mean - it's so frustrating. McCain has been a hero of mine since 1999. Lindsay and I both SOOOOO wanted him as president in 2000, and then in 2004 we got excited when there were rumors about a Kerry/McCain ticket, but then a couple of years ago I saw him give a speech at Liberty University and it was clear that he was selling out. So sad. He's still a hero though. All heroes are imperfect and not necessarily presidential. - Emotion Tad

I'll also add to that bet that he doesn't make eye contact with Sen.Obama during the debate. - Terence Washington

Yes, I expected him to lunge at Obama during the first debate, uttering something like "Why you little...." *doh* (Homer Simpson) - Mike Reynolds

THAT'S the meter CNN needs. Like a cartoon thermometer indicating when he'll blow his stack (accompanied by a steam whistle of course). - Peter Ghosh CISSP

FriendFeed Feuds are NOTHING compared to this, you guys... - Mona N. via Bookmarklet

I unlike racial intolerance. - Mike Reynolds

For his remembrance we vote for Obama ! - Farhad Jafari

It was mentioned earlier today, but it probably bears repeating: there are some sad (and probably dangerous) racists who count themselves among John McCain's and Sarah Palin's supporters. From shouting out that Obama is a terrorist to hollering "Kill him!" at a rally when Obama's name is mentioned to telling an African-American member of the press corps to "Sit down, boy," there's a lot of ugly shit around this year that makes purple Band-Aids and flip-flops look like thoughtful political discourse. And, what's even more horrifying, that they think they can openly say racist shit because being at a Republican rally — the Republican party, notably, being the party responsible for the aforementioned Emancipation Proclamation and 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments — means that they are among "their" kind. And, given that neither John McCain nor Sarah Palin — the new heirs to the leadership of the party of motherfucking Lincoln — could take a minute, a second, to chide a supporter and say,... - Erica Baker

Agreed with Adam. It just SEEMS like it right now because this is such a charged campaign season. I think if Obama was in a desperate situation and had started calling McCain or Palin terrorists then we'd see similar stuff on the blue side of things. The far-left is just as loony as the far-right, and remember boys and girls, there's almost NO difference between the ultra-left wing and the ultra right wing except the color of their uniforms. - Emotion Tad

Yes but you see Adam, the unhinged liberals don't have the long history that the crazy racists in this country do. - Erica Baker

Very bad, indeed. - Yolanda

eh, go have a bearclaw - Pete Delucchi

Having tuna fish on wheat...tasty - Rahsheen™

And he's quite possibly a creationist. - Alexander Carlill

Geoff, that's more brilliant than his last 5 films. - Dave Slusher

PS - I did like the Stuart Little movie he wrote. He can create works that matter to me, he has chosen not to. - Dave Slusher

Dreaming of Lasagna.... - (teh)Kenny

Now then, I just have to sneak into the carry-on and I'll be good. Kitteh carry-on! - Zach Flauaus

hmmm....claws + paper = fun - Denise

That's just disgusting! I hope the MTA gets every penny drained out of them for this! But that's more reflective on the org's culture, no? - Mavericks of Troy, NV!

No. Just no! - Yolanda

Ugh. - JMSmiles

If true, reports like this show the downward spiral of the GOP toward a distinctly American form of fascism. We're moving closer to violence. - Chris Baskind via Bookmarklet
