    One of the most hilarious parts about this all is watching pretty much EVERY Republican who wishes to retain their post, and of course Palin/McCain literally dis bush themselves in an attempt to garner sympathy and support. I'm curious what bush must be thinking about all this, getting bashed of…

    sarge: '"America already has this reputation" Leading light and hope of the world.'

    Geez, sarge, did you take some particular medication to be as lame as you're being this morning? My god... it's FAR worse than normal for you, and means EXTREMELY lame. I can just see you on a…

    skip: "sushi and smith, you both just played like McCain's "he like Saddamn".

    You always baffle me with the way you fail to heed your own 'advice'. You basically said in your second to last comment, "Follow my advice and don't follow people". Now you're saying that by pointing out…

    Not to be a stickler, but there's a HUGE difference between 'classic' music and 'classical'. What they are talking about here, as I suspected they would be, is 'classical' music; Bach, Brahms, Strauss Jr., Mozart, etc. 'Classic' music would have the natto fermenting to the tunes of the Beatles (depressed…

    "But Tokyo disputes claims that the courts are instinctively biased toward Japanese mothers."

    I can just see it, with Ishihara as the spearhead, "How DARE you foreign devils say we pure Japanese are biased!"

    Anyway, it's very true, and the racism note is 100% on key. I'm not at all…

    skip: "We all should be talking more about regulating politicians and how we can control them and make them realize that they work for us not the other way around which people like you seem to be so ready and willing to do. Kissing butt doesn't help the situation."

    taikan: "McCain may not have been a war hero when he was dropping bombs, but he became one when he defied his captors and refused to accept an early release when that would have meant leaving his fellow POWs behind."

    Excuse me? McCain buckled in interrogation and gave his captors…

    While Caveman Lawyer brings up some good points, it's still clear that police could have and should have done more. With all the reports you hear about women who are stalked and killed (and who have filed police reports but didn't get any help), you would think that even with…

    Get ready to feel the crunch, people... and it'll hit Japan just as hard as the US, if not harder (since they DEPEND on the US for everything). I guess we'll probably stop hearing complaints about Chinese food, since that's all anyone will be able to afford; so at least…

    Is this article really up to snuff? I was reading elsewhere that it plunged FAR more than reported here, and that it was the largest drop and biggest day of losses since the bubble burst in 1987 -- that's 21 years ago, not 5.
