Log on to the New York Times, Washington Post, Opinion Journal, Kansas City Star, Chicago Tribune and the Baltimore Sun using my email and pass word if it's required. It is a junk email account and I don't care how much they spam it:

graybeard_58@yahoo.com

User name graybeard_58

Pass word 629629

That's an underscore between graybeard and 58.

Are votes at a discount price, now that the election is over? I always enjoy a bargain.

Great idea. The blue-staters should start buying their food and power (including electricity, gas, oil, etc.) solely from the blue counties. Call us when the hunger, dark and cold gets unbearable.

If someone can't figure out waht you're saying, they don't need your addy!

Be safe.....

This is just too easy for a "turn-about."

That is what they think of when Kerry tells them to help "unite the country"

Not a smart move by the Dems. Once the majority (reds) find out who is supporting what, the left will be losing money in their effort to supplant the right.

See tagline.

The reason for the original excerpt was that we are not allowed to post entire articles from the Tribune.....Not even down thread.
