- @ToddThurman (Swoon) Paul Ryan is so dreamy. 🙂 in reply to ToddThurman #
- Video of hate-filled Tea Party protests… oh wait. Those are anti-Bush protesters. My bad. http://bit.ly/bhPj3B #
- Angry anti-Bush protesters encourage violent revolution, MSM forgets to report http://bit.ly/cVA9kO #
- @MMonides I didn't compare it to threats. I'm comparing it to reports of angry Tea Parties. in reply to MMonides #
- @MMonides If you want threats, go to the "George W. Bush, dead or alive" 0:24 in the video in reply to MMonides #
- @MMonides The point of the video is that there are angry/ignorant/crazy people on the other side. It just doesn't get reported. in reply to MMonides #
- @MMonides It's a comparison of media interest and reactions, not a defense of crazy people. in reply to MMonides #
- @MMonides Oh… I'm sorry, I thought we were talking about reality, not the "everyone I disagree with is EVIL!!!" mindset you have in reply to MMonides #
- @MMonides The anti-Bush protests got no media? You're funny. 🙂 And now with the bad language. You must be winning the debate. in reply to MMonides #

- @KirsteninMT The census records simple and necessary demographic data. If the "race" question bothers you, don't answer it. in reply to KirsteninMT #
- @KirsteninMT That hardly matters. Whether the "right" people are in charge or not, we still need to define congressional districts. in reply to KirsteninMT #
- @lunayapravda Fine. Fill out something stupid like "Yeti". But the basic demographic information is important to have. in reply to lunayapravda #
- @KirsteninMT Because getting the "right" people in charge requires an accurate electoral reflection of the population. Hence, census. in reply to KirsteninMT #
- @KirsteninMT If 51% of people want the "wrong" people in charge, do we subvert the process? I think the "right people" concept is unuseful in reply to KirsteninMT #
