I cannot arrange the parts of speech with such art as to produce effects of light and shade, for I am no painter. Even by signs and gestures I cannot express my thoughts and feelings, for I am no dancer.

An answer can be sencible or senciless, it can be meaningful or meaningless, it can be positive or negative, it can be helpful or helpless and it can be educative or uneducative. All these depends on the intended purpose of the question and the questioner. To all those who hate Senator Obama, Presidential Candidate Nader's recent comments were accurate and in order, but to all those who like Presidential Candidate Senator Obama, those comments were inaccurate and out of order.

Bob Casey''s comments aired on C-SPAN about food safety. If this is all about copyright infringement, the mainstream media is really cutting off their nose to spite their face. Redlasso only allows 10 minute clips. In many cases, these clips really act as teasers which lead a blog reader to view more of the content provided by the source. However, I suspect that all of this is an attempt by msm to control the dissemination of information to the public. An ill-informed electorate is an easily controlled one.

I'm upset, too. In essence, we won't have the same access to the news. I'll be following this story with interest. Heard about this through Catherine and Twitter - thanks, Catherine! I’m upset, too.

I just heard about this, and I am so upset. I use Redlasso to add video clips to my posts all the time, this is going to be a huge setback. Excellent post Pamela.
