New and Improved Comments

We are launching a major overhaul of our comments section.

In addition to more robust spam filtering and moderation, new features include the ability to rate other comments, sort how they are displayed and respond directly via e-mail or in a thread.

Unfortunately, commenters will lose their existing Truthdig identities. It's a pain, we know, but on the plus side you will now be able to log in with a plethora of options, including Google, Twitter, Facebook and Disqus accounts.

Before launching this system we spent months in discussion with our top commenters. We listened to the feedback and we hope you like what we've come up with.

Please direct any problems or concerns to us via our contact page.

This is for my husband who will be heading to Iraq later this year. You wanna know my everyday prayer? That my husband, my childrens daddy, that he doesnt die for nothing. This war, in my opinion, seems to be for nothing.

Escalation will lead us to where ? To more dead in vain; to more blood for bathing; to more disabled and wounded soldiers…but bring more DOLLARS into pockets of those who have speculated the war through the crimnal administration.

Oh shut up already about this piddling “surge”.

IT’S IRAN, STUPID!

I’ll get interested when they make a “STOP THE WAR AGAINST IRAN” ad.

Why is the US peace movement wasting all its breath yammering about this fairly small troop increase in Iraq, and barely mentioning the looming war with Iran, which is about 100 times more important and frightening?
