| In addition to Free Republic and Red State, Real Clear Politics also used to be a favorite hang-out for politically minded bloggers. Especially conservatives. And that for obvious reasons. For example, side by side comparison polling data during both the primary and general election. Transcripts of major political speeches and interviews. And besides the featured articles chosen by the Real Clear editors, readers and visitors to RCP had one other great opportunity: And that was to browse and read any of the many articles written and composed by readers themselves. This feature was called the "Reader Articles Section." Quite often... |

| Millions may have lauded Barack Obama's Inaugural speech but what remained unheard was what was said by a First daughter to her father, and between the new President and his predecessor after the swearing-in ceremony. According to a lip reader, the first African-American president of the United States, just after the ceremony, asked George W Bush: "You OK?" As to what was Bush's reply, according to The Sun, the lip reader said: "So relieved." The 43rd president had later informally handed over his former White House residence to Obama saying: "It's all yours now - good luck." And while thousands... |

| NEW YORK - Newspaper readers agree with editors on the basics of what makes good journalism, but they are more apt to want looser rules for online conversations, a new study on news credibility has found. Newspapers highly discourage anonymous remarks, for instance, and editors are more likely than readers to want that principle applied to reader comments online, according to the Online Journalism Credibility Study released Tuesday by the Associated Press Managing Editors group and the Donald W. Reynolds Journalism Institute at the University of Missouri. Some 70 percent of editors surveyed said requiring commenters to disclose their identities... |

President vandalizing U.S. values - (ravings of Sarasota Trib lunatic lib Letter to Editor writer!)

| The recent incident in Bent Tree, a Sarasota subdivision, shows that the words and policies of President Bush are driving our young people to the brink of insanity. One of the boys who burned American flags was quoted as saying he did it because he hated America. I doubt that he meant he hated Bent Tree. More likely, he hated a country that tortures its prisoners, stubbornly resists efforts to slow global warming and saddles each of our newborn grandchildren with a $150,000 debt to the Chinese. For years, we taught our children that they were lucky to be Americans... |

Weekly Reader Poll - Coming October 25th! (Vanity)

| I had been wondering when the Weekly Reader poll was going to come out, looks like October 25. I for one would be very depressed (no matter what the other polls are saying at the time) if this didn't show Bush as the winner. I fully expect that it will, as I have had several people tell me that their kids conducted "informal" polls in their class and found Bush to be the big winner. Millions of students are expected to cast a vote in Weekly Reader's presidential poll. Students can vote online, by ballot or by calling toll-free 888-964-2904.... |
