re: #9 Charles
The Van Jones incident was really disgusting in my opinion. Here’s what I wrote at the time:
[Link: littlegreenfootballs.com…]
Now that I’ve actually researched Van Jones and his real opinions for myself, it’s clear to me that the country lost a very good man for the “green jobs” position when he was forced to resign. And the one who started all this was … Jim “Dim” Hoft. He’s the one who dug up the misleading petition on a Truther website and caused a huge stink.
Now they have a Fox News host who OPENLY says he’s a Truther, and nobody even blinks.
I remember that post, but i went back and reread it anyway to re-familiarize myself with some of the details and did a double-take here…

i do, on occasion, have cause to regret for the nic i chose while i was scrambling not to miss the open reg window/
