[Delphinus]

8. I thought

he sounded sad.

In fact, when I look at him, it seems like hew knows something else is coming down the pike but can't say anything about it.

10. Activism isn't always about sowing discord but is most productive when used to

build consensus for your cause. There is a time to raise your voice and a time to work at the task at hand. I think that there are serveral areas in which we can get to work--health care reform being one of them. We have a base to work from. Let's get busy and build on it.

[BelgianMadCow]

11. Major call out on the obstructionist house

15. Who is the crotchstain on CNN

that was lamenting the fact that Obama didn't acknowledge his role in the budget crisis, the fact that he could have negotiated and chose not to? What a toolbag. I wish they'd put his name underneath his jabbering face.
