Comment previewing
I use comment moderation to avoid comment-spam and nastiness, not to filter opinions. I intend to publish all reasonable comments, whether or not they agree with me. I will not publish any comment that is unduly flaming or that uses foul language, whether or not it agrees with me. You may contact me about an entry by making a comment and telling me that it is a private comment, in which case I will not publish it. If you want a response, include your email address. For privacy reasons I won’t publish a comment that contains someone’s email address.
Unfortunately, because of comment spam I am no longer accepting anonymous comments. You may use a Google account or OpenID with a pseudonym, but you will have to log in to comment. I would rather not do this, but... blame the spammers.

And I loved the way he repudiated much of what BushCo stood for, with the rotten little weed sitting right there behind him, unable to ignore it.
Indeed, with lines like, “restore science to its rightful place,” and, “we are ready to lead once more,” with the unspoken ending understood: after eight years of failing to.
Everyone seems to be creaming their pants at this little thing he's said. If he says this now, just imagine what he'll say if he gets re-elected.
Wow! It's official.. you exist :) I'm so happy for you.. it's about time! Lots of good stuff in there, for sure.
One day, I suspect in my lifetime, we will have an elected president who is proud to be a non-believer, and is accepted as a matter of course, in the way that other candidates and presidents of minority faiths have come to be accepted.
Perhaps we'll even manage to have an openly GLBT president, although I'm less optimistic of that happening in my lifetime.
