It can not possibly have been directly dictated by the great bonghit.

If it were it would be filled with Umm.. errr... that is... etc. The man can not talk with out stuttering and meandering.

That is why his handlers write all his statements for him, and spoon feed them to him through a teleprompter. Even when talking to children.

Newsweek was recently sold for one dollar.

I'd gladly buy it for $2, just so that I could have the pleasure of walking up to this guy and saying "you're fired!"

You know your ideology is in trouble when it is based on killing babies, breaking the law and debt.

Ideology or budget? Sounds like Planned Parenthood to me. I'm not sure that the vestigial lefties have an ideology anymore; their voting seems a mere reflex of a brain-dead organism. God only knows what's going through the mind of a young Democratic voter these days. Maybe that's why they're staying home this election.

The good news is that the state-run media has dropped all pretense of being "unbiased."

Hey Alter, your magazine`s poll just reported a huge surge in popularity for Obama and the dems. So what`s to worry for, since.... oh, it was a SHAM poll..ahhh, I see. Well then... back to begging.

Newsweek at one time was a legitimate news mag. Now it`s nothing more than a far-left rag on par with “The Nation” and “Mother Jones.”

Newsweek was recently sold for one dollar. With Alter you are certainly getting your monies worth.

Considering what a dollar is, or is soon to be, I still think somebody got gypped.

Notice how this a-hole Alter uses the pejorative term “right-wingers” instead of “conservatives.”

Apparently Alter and his fellow bed-wetters are not liberals, not “progressives,” but left-wingers.

So basically if Republicans win we’ll be dying like animals in the streets? Unburied bodies be stacked 10 feet high and flies will devour the living after feeding on the dead..

The end of civilization as we know it will happen due to these crazy GOP policies (possibly) cutting government, I see.

Nothing but the spouting of liberal marxist whores. I’m for pulling the plug and letting all the socialists, marxists, communists, democratic socialists, leninists and all their ilk sink to the bottom of Lake Superior. Hell, most of them can even spell that. They and all their followers shoud learn to get a job, work to their highest potential and strive to do more; instead of whining about not getting enough because they didn’t do what it takes to get ahead in this world.

I believe they have suspended print, and gone to internet website only. They couldn't sell any advertising in their magazine, and nobody wanted to subscribe to the same ol' same ol'. It had shrunk to about 60 pages when it was folded.

Alter needs to be put on 24/7 suicide watch. The guy is losing it and may blow at any second.

I hope you are right. Maybe a bottle of scotch, a loaded pistol, and a few hours alone would give him a bright idea.

I can't tell if this Alter piece is supposed to be news, opinion, or a 'Rat pep talk - not that Newsweek cares.

Alter missed at least a couple of the 'Rats' standard ranting points: he said nothing about Republicans being racist or homophobic. Well, better luck next time around, Jonathan. (Sarc.)

Do women want more representatives who oppose abortion?

If recent polling is any indication, actually, yes they do.

Alter’s mother was a lefty Dem alderman or councilman in Chicago.
