		<description>&lt;p&gt;FDL has more to say to me (white,straight, male)in one day than Bush/Cheney/Rove have said in 7 years!  Let me qualify that a bit.   FDL has never been caught by me lying (they may disagree with my perceptions but . . .).  On the other hand Bush lied about everything from Iraq to the size of the damn fish he “caught”!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;BTW Does anyone think that it is MORE THAN a tad ironic that Ms. Collins ran on the basis of her being a “Feminist”…and asked for WOMENS VOTES in her first and subsequent turns for office? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And that this so-called “Femblog” is actually supporting a MALE Progressive candidate? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So exactly how much “blind” and uncritical support of women is FDL really involved in? They don’t support women SIMPLY because they ARE women! They look at the candidates positions on very REAL issues facing Americans today…and since half the population ARE women, and are primary caretakers…then this site clearly does discuss issues that related to these groups. But it also talks about a wide range of other issues. as well. Discussions of the neglect of Americas infrastructure, the overwhelming disparity between defence spending vs. education and other social needs, Veterans health, the impact of the War in Iraq on our Nations Volunteer Military, etc. are far more frequently topics of discourse.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’ve never seen a blog in which “bra burning”, the right to go “topless in public”, or other idiosyncratic issues are discussed. What I have seen are interesting discussions on the differentials in gender pay-equity, the impact on divorce, issues of family leave, workplace discrimination, etc.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Perhaps Ms. Collins is uninterested in these issues? Maybe she considers them the domain of the extreme left “fem&lt;strike&gt;bots&lt;/strike&gt; &lt;strike&gt; -iNazis&lt;/strike&gt; &lt;em&gt; BLOGS&lt;/em&gt;????&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-897701&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;gods warrior @ 87&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Collins site is down, this is obviously some sort of hack from liberals, always attacking people for censorship except when YOU do it. you people sicken me and need to re-education to stop hating our constitution and America! Bush is a true christian warrior and when future people look back will be remembered as a hero!!!!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;dont censor this comment fdl, there is nothing offensive, just opinion, just like th last one you deleted, further proving my point.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Re-Education camps is it now…yep, I guss we’ll need it to deal with the “NewSpeak” Constitution. And these camps will likely also require “Re-Educating” people about the “Christian Warior Hero” status of Bush!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There’s that whole paragraph in the “New Constitution” about how people from the opposition have to be hauled into these&lt;br /&gt;
RE-Education Camps after a Presidential Order…It’s right after the part that says “&lt;em&gt;Freedom of Speech and the Press shall not be abridged, EXCEPT…&lt;/em&gt;“&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;BTW…I suspect that when Coliins site returns…it will have expunged the Arthur Frump comment ;-)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why would liberals want to hack the site that contains both this comment and the one by her campaign advisor? They want people to SEE THAT!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-897633&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;TeddySanFran @ 82&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Why is it always SAN FRANCISCO with these dog-whistling homophobes?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;They want to destroy all the big Liberal cities because in their heart of hearts they truly hate Liberals and the values Liberals live by. For example, they have problems with real Freedom. To them it means licentious and immoral. Of course, we don’t mind letting THEM be free to practice their brand of morality and religious belief. But, THEY can’t imagine someone else having different views which are still valid. In short, they don’t ‘get’ America, as a land of diversity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Even something unrelated to morality or religious belief, like language, can really bum them out. They are mostly scared of anyone who speaks a language other than Americanized English. That’s a big part of why Immigration is a big issue with them this year.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My view on language is more pragmatic and nationalistic: I don’t mind if someone speaks another language, but it doesn’t help them communicate with me, as I only understand English; if a multi-language society is more prone to problems and ultimately failure, then I don’t want that and would prefer one language to hold the nation together (even Genghis Khan understood that).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We Progressives and Regressives are worlds apart.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Should we reply on Collins’ site of just leave it alone?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Leave it alone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If she can straighten out her mess with the public, then that’s good for her. But, if she lets that garbage to stay on the site it will drown her come election day.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Looks like that comment has been up for 12 hours and counting on the Collins’ website…seems pretty irresponsible to me, I have to say.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If she doesn’t disown it then she owns it.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I am reading about lot of Republican hate mongers writing that there needs to be another 911 style attack on US soil, and in particular in San Francisco.. The Democratic canidates need to start collecting these dirty little clips and use them in ads to display just how sick these people truely are.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;They don’t fight terrorism, they are calling for our nation to be hit..&lt;/p&gt;</description>
