While we’re at this, it’d be nice if more commenters used [blockquote] and [/blockquote], replacing the brackets with to make it easier to read and distinguish what is being cited from the new comment.

I have been guilty of that as well (and extremely lazy). There is a short reference quide in the WordPress Docs here: Writing Posts

It is near the bottom under the section Visual Versus HTML Editor

Hope that helps

Scott,

While I’m happy that my comment made you laugh …I was listening to an NPR interview with Pelosi today (Sunday afternoon) discussing her trip to Iraq and it was obvious she reflected my interpretation in the AP piece; Pelosi: “We want to make sure it’s not the same ol’ song we’ve heard before”, she concluded generally.

When you say: …”how many examples do we need [to support] political progress”? I say: think in terms of what the Iraqi people want; then reflect on why so many Iraqis want us to leave.

PS. I don’t believe there has been significant and authentic “political progress”— remember: yours is the minority stance, therefore, you need to support it; as I haven’t seen counter arguments to my posts to indicate otherwise.

Aye: Are you unable to add html tags like

img src=”"

(surrounded of course by “< " and "/>” and where the image location is between the two “” marks)

Look below where it says “Comment”, there is a button with a arrow. Push that and it gives you some html stuff

Well, now that you’ve taught me how, I will do that.

I meant to ask how, but just didn’t.

P.S. Skye: Use the html code for inserting an image. You can also paste in the embed code for videos too.

I usually hit the “edit” button on someone’s comment, and then use the “Image” button, insert link, cut-and-paste it to my comment and publish. (I don’t have the html code memorized for “image” insertion).

Is the embed thing must be an Admin only function?

I tried that earlier but the coding was ignored.

Perhaps Pelosi needed to visit Baghdad to find out how an effective and productive legislature can get it’s job done even under adverse security conditions. The Iraqi Parliament has been much more successful in accomplishing it’s task than Democrats in the U.S. Congress who have managed to get only ONE of their agenda items (let’s call them benchmarks shall we?) passed.

And while we are all certain that minimum wage employees appreciate that raise, they are still saddled with high gas prices, healthcare costs and a range of other financial challenges that the 2006 Congress was supposed to take care of.
