Re: @Disqus
Mr. Wright has specifically asked us not to do that (http://brainwaveweb.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7289). I suppose he could retaliate if we set up a bunch of parallel DV discussion threads over...

NB: I am not taking a side in this latest spat, if that is the proper word, but I can't resist an invitation to copy edit. Occupational hazard.

Re: An apparition is stalking America
It sounds like our definitions of healthy patriotism are similar. And there is no question that conservatives or rightwingers use patriotism as a bludgeon against liberals and lefties. It's unfair, I...

Yes, Wonderment. America is all that and more. The ills we have brought to the world are without count. The benefits, nonexistent. How you can bear to live in that benighted land is beyond me.

Re: Predictions for 2012?
Ah, but the scenario you paint would be little different from Clinton's victory in 1992, though the margins are tighter. Ross Perot won something like 12% of the popular vote, didn't take a single...
