Haha

lol at Pat Robertson for being sort of right

Evidence of our moral bankruptcy???

Most of these comments are pretty good evidence of the complete moral bankruptcy of our nation. A generation or two ago, no one would have even questioned the inappropriate nature of a prostitute madam teaching our children. I can only hope that these posts aren’t representative of the general population. Virtue has become vice and vice has become virtue . . . history has shown us that moral bankruptcy always comes before financial bankruptcy. Go figure?

I would thank the DRUDGE

I would thank the DRUDGE report for your #1......

I agree, Evan J.

This listing speaks volumes about the interest level of the readers. Who can blame the VP for pandering to the demographics who obviously crave this type of "news?" If the feedback shows this is what the readers want, then the VP would be foolish not to give them more of the same. Maybe they should expand the comics to two or three pages and perhaps double the movie listings and reviews pages.

Sad

Well, that's a sad commentary on what people find interesting. No wonder it's so hard to find any informative and important news.
