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.

Terry,
Picturing “DICK” in drag with that drone voice has me in stitches…

He really doesn’t have the knees for a mini shirt.

Christopher,
“W” & “DICK” would be dressed in “drag” screaming only women and children in the life boat.

We must thank those who have already drowned for their sacrifice so that we can remain safe and dry.  Of course, anyone who says the ship is sinking is a traitor.

Wouldn’t “W” and cohorts be in a lifeboat giving orders to the passengers?

John Burns was on the PBS program CHARLIE ROSE
program and he had this to say, even though you think the troops are winning these people will go back to the hills and wait awile and then come back again and again and again, after all these insergents do not care how many people they kill because the Iraqui people might leave their country but there will come a day when no one country will allow them in, then they must either rise up or be eliminated as a people, I find that hard because these women who wear the body cover in public, in private their job is to produce baby after baby after baby, some of these women have 20 children. 

In Israel, they know the enemy can out populate them, because the only goal of women in these muslim nations is to produce children, what are women for certainly not to have a point of view, women are regarded as breeding stock with the brain of a child, I mean it takes brains to drive a car, something that only a male can do.  Men seems able to do a lot except work, someone has to keep the coffeehouses in business because only foreign women are allowed in these establishments.

It would be nice if this war was to really free the people, the talk about democracy is Bush’s new talk now that the weapons of mass destruction have not been found. 

People do not realize that for this country to have the so called freedom the Native peoples had to be eliminated because they were not civilized because they were not Christians and worse they did not buy into the capalisist way of waste.  By waste I mean chop down every tree, plow up the prarie, dam ever river.  And then when the mudslides happen, and the levees break blame it on the GOD who lookes down on the greedy, and believe me the oil people/Bush/Chaney are not careing about the environment.
