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.

Mr Fish may be referencing the “Grandfather of Neo-Conservatism” Leo Strauss whose addiction to “Gunsmoke” was the inspiration for the loony ideas that took root with Wolfowitz, Perle etc and matured into the disaster that this administration has become.

“24” on the telly would have been more current and accurate.  If memory serves me, and it ususally does, “Gunsmoke” had many thoughtful and thought provoking episodes and Matt Dillon tended to look at violence as a last resort.  It could also be wickedly funny.

Mr. Fish you have nailed it again, but I thought he watches Jackass.
