• Special report: Stuck between the Tea Party and a hard place

  Tue May 17, 2011
  •  I applaud citizens getting involved in running our country, but first they should educate themselves on economics. These tea partiers don't know zip. Before they go destroying the U.S. economy, they should read history too. The political system is based on compromise and so is civil society.

• Despite rapid growth, India lets its girls die

  Wed May 4, 2011
  • Would those families who don't want girls consent to the female babies being adopted overseas? Indian males born today are going to face difficulty finding brides when they are old enough to marry. It's a terrible tragedy that female lives the world over are less valued than those of males.

• Thai troops retreat after clash with protesters

  • Songkhran holiday is about to begin. How will this affect the demonstrations? Will the rural poor return to their villages, or will the violence escalate? Let's hope the airport stays open. This is a disaster for tourism. What does the royal family have to say?

• Fla. doc's sign warns off Obama supporters

  Sat Apr 3, 2010
  • I agree with the poster who said Dr. (I use that term lightly) Cassell can return to Grenada where he went to medical school. I'd sooner die than let a person of his 'ethics' touch me.

• Did a Florida doc cross a line with a sign telling patients to go elsewhere for care if they voted for Obama?

  • Freedom of speech is all very fine and good, but politics has no place in a doctor's office.

  • Exactly! What is the problem with all the commenters who can't see the total lack of logic in what this doctor is doing?

  • Of course this doctor can say what he wants and do what he wants. It's a free country. But I wonder how HE would feel if he needed to see a doctor himself and was met at the door with a sign saying 'if your political views don't agree with mine, go elsewhere'? Doctors get sick too. Doctors die too.

  • Last time I checked, the U.S. government wasn't giving away cars so your analogy is half baked at best. No healthcare system can change the fact that we are ALL going to get sick sometimes or that we are ALL going to die. It doesn't matter how rich you are...your money won't buy you immortality.

  • BOYCOTT THIS DOCTOR! This man's attitude is so repugnant that I would rather die than let him touch me. What is his concern? His bloated doctor's salary might suffer? The pharmaceutical companies might not be able to give him all the swag he's used to getting?

• Elizabeth and John Edwards are separated

  Wed Jan 27, 2010
  • I totally agree that Rielle Hunter was equally to blame. Maybe even more than half, as she opportunistically targeted John and got pregnant to boot, ensuring she'd be supported financially. In all her scheming, didn't she ever think about the innocent wife and children of this man? Apparently not.
