UPDATE: Come into the comments to discuss the episode. If you haven't seen it, watch out for spoilers inside.
ANOTHER UPDATE: There's a nascent Television Without Pity forum thread for Ted, the guy Claire asked the quoted question. It begins:
Well, I guess it had to happen sooner or later. One HBO show had to have an out & proud Republican.
MORE: The Ted thread isn't there anymore, but it's nice to know that Ted went on to be a very important character, who was always respected by the show's writers.

How dare she, insult pigs that way. Pigs are highly intelligent, hard-working animals, highly clean, fastidious even, and friendly to a fault. Honest.
Or were you complaining about the slur on blogging?
This reminds me of the Cat Food on Doonesbury thing. Only irritating if one takes it personally. I'm a blogger, but my neck is only red when it's been sunburned.
Also, I didn't support the announcement, prosecution, or conduct surrounding the war on Iraq, because of who and how and why, but that's surely not the point; we're discussing high Low Culture [sic] here.
Cheerily,
Eh N.
Defenders of old media expressing frustration. To them democracy is for the few.
Eh: I wasn't complaining, just noting that the word "blogger" was in the dialogue. Make of it what you will. The key thing, as grumpyta points out, is that by the end of the episode the two had formed a bond. And also, I note, the boyfriend really stated the case for the war pretty well and seemed much more rational and grounded than Claire. I think the story arc for the final three episodes will have her maturing with a connection to him. Or not.
So Nate wasn't dead last week. He had to revive long enough to have that great Maggie-Brenda hospital hate-fest and to tell Brenda it was over. And now we truly know he's dead, because the white screen with the birth and death dates totally seals it. Nice touch with the drive in the van, with the hippie version of David, and the plunge into the pristine ocean. Where Lisa died.
The chances of poor Maya dying seem pretty high. She's always been mostly a plot device -- incredibly inert as a character.
You lot suck.
Whilst you're watching Six Feet Under, Al Gore and Co. are launching Current TV today, the latest installment in the "Air America" cultural wars that are ripping our country apart.
And when I say our country, I mean in the fevered imaginations of the coasties only.

Wait that's too close to Wonkette. Ew. Make that..."Redneck Blogger Althouser".
you have to admit...that vbspurs puts the 'cunt' in 'contentious', doesn't she?
Yes, we're all enthralled by what Al Gore has to say! He invented the Internet!
Fine, see if I care if we lose the youth of America to Al Gore!
Although admittedly, that sentence would've been a bit less comical in 2000.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going back to watching silent movie hour on TCM.
Cheers,

Yeah I was going to rant about the redneck blogger pig comment but the speculations on the next 4 episodes are too great to ignore.
Aren't all roads in rural Georgia dirt roads?
Sorry. Too easy.
