Excellent point. - Dennis Metzcher

Maybe if the clerics fight one another the Islamic Republic of Iran will fall and the protestors can form a new nation based on equality, liberty, and justice. I can dream big, can't I? - Dennis Metzcher

"democratic roots of the system" Which system? Iran? What democratic roots? It's a theocracy that doesn't respect the basic human rights of women or minorities. Andrew Sullivan seems so wrapped up in the emotional images of good people risking their lives for their votes to be counted that he's not seeing the truth. Yes, watching people risk their lives for their vote is moving. But that doesn't make this a revolution. Mousavi said: "There's a danger ahead. A ruling system which relied on people's trust for 30 years cannot replace this trust with security forces overnight." As one can see, he's an insider. I'll say it again: the Iranians are fighting to install a leader who wants to keep the current system of government. It will still be a theocracy. It will still have a religious "supreme leader". Someone wake me when Iran has a real revolution. The sad part about this is that more than a few people protesting and risking their lives might think Mousavi will be radically different... - Dennis Metzcher

Palin isn't a sociopath. She's just stupid. She doesn't understand that some citizens aren't as ignorant as she. - Dennis Metzcher

That's the only run where she'd have a chance in hell of beating him. Don't strain yourself, Sarah. Your intellect isn't large enough to take on Obama in the 2012 election. But hell, I'd love to watch you try. - Dennis Metzcher

Senator Franken. Sounds nice, right?! - Dennis Metzcher

Not a bad idea at all. - Dennis Metzcher

I'm shocked that we're still talking about Sarah Palin. She's the Paris Hilton of politics. And I guess that explains it. Eveyone loves to watch a fool falling on their face. But when is Palin going to realize that most people are laughing at her, not with her? Like, duh, Sarah. - Dennis Metzcher

OMG! Sanford lied about the number of times he met his mistress?? Color me shocked! But seriously, he called on others to resign when they screwed around and lied about it. He screwed around and lied about. And he lied as recently as his press conference last week when he came clean about it. Hypocrites in government? Nah, that doesn't happen. Mr. Governor, please resign. You are wasting the time of the people of your state. You are wasting the time of the people of the nation. You have real issues, and you need to work them out. Go away. How does a nice hike down a certain trail sound? Get some fresh air. Take a vacation to South America. Also, your hot and heavy interviews... Cheap, tawdry, embarassing. Have you no shame? How about a little compassion for your wife in kids? Does she need to hear all this reported in the press? Do the kids' classmates need to hear it all? Get. Over. Yourself. We're already over you. - Dennis Metzcher

I still have no idea why anyone covers what Limbaugh says. Covering what he says puts the left in a defensive position and Limbaugh in a position to control the conversation. Why give him that power. He doesn't have it without the left covering him. - Dennis Metzcher

Maybe Cheney will create a GOP candidate exploratory committee and end up picking himself. I'd love to see him nominated. Watching Obama clean the floor with Cheney in 2012 is my secret fantasy. - Dennis Metzcher

"just sort of walking around my neighborhood being as fierce as possible" LOL! - Dennis Metzcher

Yearning to be free? By supporting an opposition leader that supports the current theocratic system of government in Iran? I guess my definition of freedom is different. I don't think a theocracy brings freedom. Sure, the protests in Iran were inspiring, but the two sides are arguing over which tyrant is going to rule the country. That's not a fight for freedom or change. It's a fight for "slightly different". When the Iranians truly revolt and seek to overthrow the "supreme leader", then I'll call it a revolution and throw my support behind it. Until then, I'm unwilling to allow emotion to overcome me and trick me into believing that what is happening in Iran right now is a revolution. - Dennis Metzcher

Giuliani. Wasn't he a cheater, too? Isn't he a member of the "family values" party along with Gov. Sanford? Yeah. Just checking. - Dennis Metzcher

Yay! I disagree with the writer, though. I'd love my shows recorded and kept offsite. That may mean I can record more than two channels at the same time (no tuner is required on my side for recording). Also, this means I could replace my cable box with another one (if it breaks) and not lose my scheduled recordings (a real pain). - Dennis Metzcher

Great picture. Any intelligent Geek Squad employee uses a Mac. ;-) - Dennis Metzcher

"the power of darkness" Is that what they call hypocrisy now?to be clear, Gov. Sanford is not under fire for screwing around on his wife. News Flash: No one cares about that on the left. What the left cares about is that Sanford is a hypocrite douchebag who has attacked other elected officials (Predident Clinton was one of them) for violating their marriage vows. We on the left are sick tired of hearing these Republican windbags going on about the sanctity of marriage while they are having sex in airport bathrooms, sending dirty-old-man emails to teenage page boys, cheating on their sick wives, and running off to Argentina like teenagers without a care in the world to have sex with mistresses. Going forward, STFU, Republicans. You're no more the family values party than the Democrats. In fact, their affairs aren't nearly as sick, twisted, and weird. - Dennis Metzcher

"Valleywag spy" LOL! Gimme a break, Valleywag. What you meant to say was... "Apple employee that likes to be quoted anonymously in order to feel important in the Valley." If Valleywag has the money for "spies", I'm the Queen of England. They probably can't afford to cater lunch. - Dennis Metzcher

When is Bill Kristol going to realize that people like him got us into Iraq and we aren't interested in hearing his lunatic views on Iran? It's not our job to change the regime in Iran. I am disgusted by the fact that Iran is a theocracy. I'd like to see that change. But I'm not going to agree to commit my nation's blood and treasure to change Iran's system of government. Enough is enough. If the people of Iran want change, they need to make it happen. Our founders did it, other nations have done it, and Iran's people can do it. The United States cannot be liberator of the world. Eventually, we will break under the stress on our military and economy. Then what, Mr. Kristol? Do you have a plan for saving the Republic after you help bring it down? - Dennis Metzcher

Sign me up. I'd love to get rid of my aircard. But don't charge me an obscene amount of money, Comcast. Oh hell, what am I talking about? Of course you will. - Dennis Metzcher

Welcome back, Steve! - Dennis Metzcher
