					<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;It is true there have been some doosies over the years, but it’s hard to imagine which Exodus blunders are bigger than this one.&lt;/blockquote&gt;



Yes, it is hard to imagine but this one looms so large due to it&#039;s &lt;em&gt;potential&lt;/em&gt; implications and the fact that it&#039;s rather current. As time and history play out, it will be better measured in true perspective. Again, just an opinion.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Surely, at least a tip of the hat needs to be extended to &#039;The Thread That Will Not Die&#039;...&#039;Berg vs Obama:Response due to Supreme Court by Dec. 10.&#039; 

Although that was December 10, &lt;strong&gt;2008&lt;/strong&gt;, the thread originated in November 2008 and has garnered well over 2000 comments. My guess is that more than half of those comments came in during 2009. And, believe it or not, there were even a few already this year. 



I disagree with the assessment that #2 was Exodus&#039; biggest blunder ever and also with the conclusion that it may never recover. I can think of bigger blunders over the years and I actually see that Exodus&#039; response to this issue has MORE people, while still viewing them critically, understanding them a bit more. But, neither my value judgement or Michael&#039;s can be objectively evaluated...at least not at this time. And the discussion would detour seriously from &quot;did I miss anything?&quot;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[a. mcewen - Where was I dishonest? I could say the same thing about your comment. Jennings did say the boy was 15. No one made that up, Jennings said it. And Jennings thought he was having sex and said he made a mistake in his handling of the situation. I think he saved his job by admitting the obvious. Why do you think he admitted he made a mistake?]]></description>
