In Norm's eyes, the Republican Party doesn't do anything correctly. Had McCain not scaled back the convention, he likely would've called the right wingers as selfish and insensitive; not concerned about the people who are/were in the parth of Gustav. Since he can't attack the party for that, Coleman bashes it for scheduling the convention on the second anniversary of Katrina. Well duh. When else should a political party schedule its national convention? Every time I read Mr. Coleman's editorials, he comes across as a smug, arrogant jerk. But for some reason, I come back to read every one of his columns.

You wait until a crime is commited, & then arrest them. Yup if a person is about to shot somebody, don't try to stop them until he does. Real clear thinking there. Thats about the dunbest thing i've read in this column in some time. Real sharp thinking there Nicky!!

I'm sure there are plenty of hamsters across the state that have full bladders and will put the shredded pieces of your column to good use.

Since you are incapable of doing your entire job of providing the full story, I'll help you. "St. Paul Mayor Chris Coleman said items seized in the raids, including Molotov cocktails and tools to disable buses, convinced him the RNC Welcoming Committee was planning to "engage in criminal behaviors, not just voice their disdain for the Bush administration." Chris Coleman - Nick Coleman. You two would't happen to be related would you? It's curious that every negative column you write about St. Paul, the convention, etc. you always mention the Republicans, law enforcement and other perceived evil doers. Why do you always avoid mentioning the real big elephant that is sitting in your own room... IT WOULDN'T BE BECAUSE HE'S YOUR BROTHER WOULD IT?

Once again Nick, the basher, Coleman has shown his ignorance with another piece of journalistic trash. Joking about buckets of urine like it's no big deal. Funny Coleman failed to mention the molotov cocktails, or the sling shots that could be lethal to innocent participants and law enforcement people. Yeah, this is all a big joke to Coleman. Are we supposed to tolerate anarchy and possibly murder for being a Republican. I can't imagine what motivates Coleman to continually show his ignorance and tolerance for law breakers in the name of politics.

has written a top notch article. Isn't one of the jobs of the police to do CRIME PREVENTION? Guess not? He doesn't mention that these groups were infiltrated by the police and their motives and plans were well known. But what else would you expect from the ultra left?

Good commentary - its God's way of keeping George II off stage, and keeps Cheney in an undisclosed location. So that America's Funniest Former POW and Creationist Barbie can do photo opps and say next to nothing - while the speech writers scramble frantically with the re-writes.
