Chapman you are one piece of work. You read one book and determine that the premise behind that book now is the gospel since it happens to follow you preconceived thoughts. Enhanced techniques along with nice guy techniques should be available to the interrogators depending on the determined circumstances. Three water boarding incidents a torturer doesn't make. Someone determined that Mr. Alexander's methods were not gaining the information from the detainee. So by your red toenail joke falls flat on its posterior. Mr. Alexander and therefore you would have just placed him on the sidelines because we tried the nice guy and since it didn't work we can't go any further. Chapman please go back to your buddies at Slate, New Republic,...

Saul might be the best guy in the world however he couldn't beat the dumbest least qualified Senator Debbie Stabenow. As Mich GOP chair he was a failure. Please stay away from him.

I don't know if you read these comments Michael however you are completely out of touch with reality. In my voting district in Michigan we had to provide PUKE bags like the airlines when we voted for McCain. Additionally if the the RINOs like you and Cornyn would have supported the conservative candidates like you expect us to do for your dip S##t candidates we probably would have won the additional seats you claim we lost.

The question is how can anyone from Arizona vote for McCain. You know no matter what he says that he and the sleaze from SC Lindsey will again go with the amnesty flow when it comes up again.

First this is a great commercial for McCain/Graham type of Democrat light government. Don't ruffle any feathers because it makes us look and feel bad. Most conservatives believe in the things you mention that the "center" wants however they also have the nads to promote fiscal responsibility. Mr. Gerson tell me the conservative that isn't for state and local government? Tell me the conservative that isn't for improved and increased amount of charity provided by neighbors? Tell me the conservative that isn't for improved and increased charter schools? On an on. It is the Collins, Graham, McCain, and Snowe "centrist" Republicans that have the problem of reducing their power and position in society that are systematic of the problems we...

Well Bruce I guess the proof is in the puddin.

Just think about it McCain, Graham, Steele, and now Newt have bacially had no effect on Obama and in a couple of months Glenn has taken Obama to wall twice. Oh we should be so civil and never forget that wonderful phase "my friend from the state of blah".

I guess it takes someone not erudite enough for you to make an impact.

First I do not like Robertson and never will so this is not a defense.

However, he did not say that God sent the earthquake to punish Haiti. Their suffering was due to a supposed deal with the devil. Maybe this is a goofy understanding and statement but it is what was stated.

If you can't take what he said an comment on that what are you doing on TH? Please join Ms Parker on the sidelines.

You think it is totally appropriate to trash Christians because of their beliefs, but for me to totally respect your views as appropriate. If you would just step back and re-read your comment and reflect on how stupid it is. What Ann or Brit said has caused you no harm except possibly that it strikes a chord with you.
Let me talk like you Nick -- why is A-OK for a fat Shales or Schultz, a dyke Maddow, a brain dead Schuster, or a complete buffoon OverBite to spew their trash? Because the law says it is. I don’t ask anyone to go and arrest these buffoons.
As for arresting Christians that comment is a stupid as if I told Al-Qaida that the MSNBC headquarters was an Iraqi police headquarters.

If this bill passes lets hope that it is administered it is handled like Cash for Clunkers.

By the time the usual bureaucrats process the paper work you will either be cured or dead.

Three cheers for the federal government and their capabilities to break anything they touch.

Sarah keep up the good work. The more you bring issues to the front the more actual debate we get. Charles you wouldn't have written this article unless she stoked you up.

Just read the Daily Kos support for all of KP's columns to get a flavor of the big tent Republicans. Brooks,colon Powell, Noonan, Ridge, and KP say we want your votes but just keep your ideas to youself.

Parker is closer to Obama than conservative Republican let alone a high profile woman.
