		<description>Sniffy, 
 
Thanks for supporting the truth. 
 
The Marmot and GI look good on the outside, but something is deeply dysfunctional underneath despite the thin layer of &quot;Republican veneer&quot;. I suspect zombification by socialist vampires that have turned them into the obedient living-dead. 
 
The truth is the Korean collective is a treacherous entity filled with deceptive smiley faces. Sweet faces that give Marmot and GI a feel good delusion about global harmony. 
 
The wet-dream of &quot;progressives&quot; in Republican clothing. </description>

		<description>I agree sally. 
 
Marmot wishes he was a Kyopo. Marmot will agree that stabbing Americans is &quot;wrong&quot;. But spends all his free time making excuses for korea. Jodi is just another backstabbing kyopo. 
 
I hope more americans get the knife. That is the only way those dumbshits will reaize that their korean &quot;buddies&quot; hate them. </description>

		<description>Oh! I get it. You are a &quot;Republican&quot;. 
 
Does that mean the Republican party isn&#039;t infiltrated with socialist change agents? 
 
Marmot, &quot;out yourself&quot; -- remaining a closet commie-sexual is beneath your dignity. Be proud of who you are -- come out of the closet. </description>

		<description>Marmot, 
 
Don&#039;t inflate yourself to such megalomaniacal proportions -- you are a small potato. Your birdbrain merely absorbed your socialist environment and now blogging has allowed you to parrot your indoctrination. 
 
There is something quite comical about a self-imagined elitist. Something adorably small, furry and cute -- like a marmot. 
 
What is creepy is a grown man and supposed &quot;warrior&quot; like the GI kissing your rodent butt. </description>

		<description>For those interested about Asian male news reporters check out this latest post. Hopefully this will end the controversy about both Asian male and female news reporters.

		<description>Actually, I read the quote the same way as Galang and Bluejives... I think that you&#039;re twisting her comment one turn too far, my understanding from the context and sentence structure seems to clearly indicate that the &#039;odd pair&#039; she refers to is a Asian male/white woman anchor team. 
 
The point being made is that while there are plenty of Asian female news reporters and anchors, there is a dearth of the opposite - Asian males appearing onscreen in the same roles. I do think she goes too far in slyly asserting that the *reason* may be that for middle America, seeing white male/asian female on TV is &#039;okay&#039; while watching an asian male/white female anchor team somehow is not and echoes of miscegenation? It may be as simple an explanation as a lot more Asian girls go into journalism than their male peers, which may be so - I&#039;ve seen a lot of Asian female news reporters featured prominently, but I&#039;m struggling to recall *ever* seeing an Asian male as a news anchor on either the local or national levels (though once in a while it happens on CNN International).

		<description>Admit it, you misread the quote. &quot;The odd pair&quot; refers to Asian man and white woman. In the very first sentence, the writer mentions the &quot;young Korean woman paired off with an old white man&quot; on his local TV channel in Seattle. Reading comprehension 101, my friend. 
 
And you telling people to relax because they&#039;re pent up is amusing, considering the vitriolic nature of your post. Methinks thou doth protesteth too much. You&#039;re the one who needs to fall back a tad. </description>
