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.

Say No to Corporate America, May 6 at 5:19 pm,

The problem is that there is no one to vote for that represents the
majority population, and the court system seems to have no
problem in the realization that the common majority are the
peasant class, who can’t even afford attorneys as a general rule. 

What will be wonderful is when the majority population realize
that they themselves are a class and culture and are the majority
population peasant class.  I hope I live to see it.  When the
majority population realize who they are and quit relying on other
classes and cultures to represent them, and start demanding
representation for their own class and culture, then and only then
will there be change.  Change will come from the bottom, not the
top.

Even if one of the stories is true (but truth doesn’t change every time they tell the story)Obama sat in his chair in the safety of the “situation room”.  Obama did not go into the house and kill unarmed people.  Obama announced Osama is dead (again). Many other government officials have said Osama died in December 2001. I don’t hate Obama for taking credit now because he needed a poll boost and a distraction from all the kids that were killed in Libya and Afghanistan that same weekend. I don’t hate him for all the wars or corporate appointments, or for extending the Patriot Act, or for every other lie he spews… I don’t hate him because that would require feelings. Obama allowed poison to be sprayed on millions of us along the Gulf and told the world it’s safe to swim in and eat its seafood… it is now. Obama is a puppet… I don’t like the puppetmasters! I do hate the fact I voted for Obama, the oilgarch’s obot and I hate the killing and war on Freedom.

Republicans can say whatever as they always do, but the fact is that
President Obama got the job done as far as killing Osama who had a
price on his head “Dead or Alive”, so our nation should be able to
turn the page on the fear factor that has been so prevalent since
9/11/01, bring our troops home and let the Navy Seals deal with
what’s left of the terror project, as they appear to have terror firmly
in their control.
