5. The ageism and sexism demonstrated by some people is unforgivable.
They disgust me.

15. No those are not acceptable either. I was referring to the blog comments.
But I must say, similar comments have been posted on DU and I have been disgusted to see them.As you msay, bigotry is bigotry!

If
If racism was as rampant on this board as sexism, ageism,and barely concealed homophobia and disrespect of Latinos and Asians this board would be shut down...

14. Thanks Elmer
I hadn't heard about that one. What a nice catch!

He's an American hero, and well-loved in Ohio.

19. Glenn is one of America's heroes...this is definitely a big endorsement...
and will probably help her a lot in Ohio, as much as I hate to admit it.
