In response to “Kaufman responds to criticism over violent statements: ‘Duplicitous’”:

she disagrees w own quote? blames the reader. —Joan McKniff

“I love the attention until it turns ugly… and then I’ll drag out random words and hurl them at people! Duplicitous! I refudiate them all!” Thanks for the lolz, Kauf. —Lovey

In response to “Florida’s congressional delegation responds to Giffords shooting (Updated)”:

It is a shame that it takes a lost of life for these right wing advocates of violence to speak out against it. Personally, I do not think it is sincere, just a attempt to cover their butts. If these far right politican did not mean what they said they would have never said it. Not everyone is a fool. —Carol

In response to “West on Tucson vs. West on Fort Hood”:

Just another example of his hypocrisy. —RichardFrench

In response to “State senators voice frustration with E-Verify”:

ALL employers in the state should be REQUIRED to use E-Verify … and any real kinks in it can be remedied on the fly. —Guest

In response to “Rep. West on Wasserman Schultz’s criticism: A ‘political cheap shot’”:

You know what’ a cheap shot, Westie? Encouraging your supporters to use rhetoric and then cowardly refusing to take responsibility. You enjoyed the attention when Classy Broad Kauman whipped up the crowd, now you can enjoy the consequences instead of whining about them. —Lovey

In response to “Tallahassee tap water ‘horribly polluted’”:

I always thought the water tasted horrible in Tallahassee… Now i know because its spiked with chemicals. Bottled water companies are loving this. —chem
