    Try those terrorists in NY???? Never - they are international terrrorists who came into this country and killed people from many countries. They should be tried in the World Court in Holland and no where else.

    I guess everyone is entitled to self-promote; however, it appears from the picture that the US Flag was intentionally and inappropriately used as an advertising self-serving prop for former Governor Palin. This because the US Flag appears crispy new, it is not properly displayed nor properly folded, it should not have anything placed on it, it should not be used as a drape, and it should not be used as an personal advertising "tool". Also who in their everyday life would have a US Flag laying around in their dining room/den to lean on while taking a self-serving, self-promoting picture. Now, we are not all expected to know the US Flag rules, and I have also sometimes being ignorant of these rules; however, a Governor who is also the "Commander in Chief" for their state's National Guard should know better than to use the US inappropriately for self-serving purposes. The US Flag represents a "living nation" borne out of the sacrifices of those who fought for or gave their lives for our liberties and freedoms.

    Can't believe you guys used the term "brandishing a gun". Brandish means to wave menacingly, for example in robbing a bank. Just one more reason your mag ends up in smoky barber shops with holes where the coupons were. At least people would rather read it than watch hair fall on the floor.

    Thousands of PhD's in this country, and we take economic or environmental advice from a college dropout? Wasn't this guy an adviser to the worst President in US history? If Bush was paying this guy, he needs to get refund. Rove is a fraud. He has no appreciable background in environmental science, economics, or any other academic area, and I'd be reluctant to put my time in the Bush administration on my resume, if I were he.

    Number one, Mr. Meacham, Nixon was not a conservative, so just what is the point of "even Nixon wanted to distance himself " from Goldwater? Hopefully, you aren't suggesting that Goldwater was such an extremist than even a good conservative Republican like Nixon was repelled.

    Second, you apparently give credence to the 42% polled who do not believe Sarah Palin is qualified to be President, presumably because of her inexperience. They may have a point, exhibit A being the current occupant of the Oval Office.

    TO" OMG
    25 murders? Of abortionists who kill innocent, unborn babies?

    How about the terrorism of the slaughter of over FIFTY MILLION babies since Roe vs. Wade?
    If 25 is terrorism, what is fifty million?
    And you are appalled that someone would object to your cruel butchery!
    The abortionist mindset is satanic..

    He is the worse Pres we have ever had! He is way too radical and has done NOTHING for our country! All he is worried about is pushing that RIDICULOUS health reform bill passed! He has done NOTHING for the economy, and especially in his own state, "IL": He whines and cries whenever someone doesn't agree with him!!!!

    The White House wants to fight with Fox News because they won't kiss their butts and report only what the White House and the President wants out there for us to see & read. I don't think the President has kept his promises, just like everyone that gets in that office. A reader commented that it takes time.. to give him two-four years to make it work. Hell, we don't have that long. He ran on CHANGE..well, where in the heck is CHANGE. I didn't care for Bush nor do I care for Obama and no..it's not because he's black. I would have voted for Hillary if she was allowed to actucally have been put on the ticket. She has more balls than Bush or Obama combined.

    Now I remember why I don't subscribe to Newsweek. Can you at Newsweek ever do an honest investigation of this administration and those who are a part of it or are the owners afraid of what they might find out?

    Change IS inevitable...it's getting worse and worse. Replace Obama before it's too late

    One line assesment of (Hussein) Obama. His color does not matter - He is NOT for the good of America!

    Now rove is at least admitting we have a greenhouse global warming problem. The problem is, he's about ten years too late. Why should we believe him now after he has spent the last ten years distoring and lying about the science.

    Why is Steve Ballmer given credit for being so smart?
    To me he seems more like Captain Ahab chasing his white whales around all over the place and shouting "From Hell's heart I stab at thee!" and Microsoft is of course his Pequod.
    Unfortunately for him there are now too many white whales to chase all at the same time.
    Steve Ballmer is also a guy filled with hubris to the degree that he thinks that he is loved by everyone and worshiped like a rock star and the people who criticize only do so because they are jealous of his success when the fact is, most people not on his payroll regard him as a buffoon and the guy who has all but completely ruined the reputation and credibility of a once great company through really bad business decisions and statements to the press that make him sound like he is completely insane.
