Top Comments: Open Thread edition

An Open Thread for your stories (Halloween and otherwise), after-the-jump ...

But first: Top Comments appears nightly, as a round-up of the best comments on Daily Kos. Surely ... you come across comments daily that are perceptive, apropos and .. well, perhaps even humorous. But they are more meaningful if they're well-known ... which is where you come in (especially in diaries/stories receiving little attention).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Send your nominations to TopComments at gmail dot com by 9:30 PM Eastern Time nightly, or by our KosMail message board. Please indicate (a) why you liked the comment, and (b) your Dkos user name (to properly credit you) as well as a link to the comment itself.

Now, on to Top Comments:

From susans:

In this morning’s New Day Diary— The Marti is a National Treasure and here she is referring to a former, failed president.

From Puddytat:

In the diary by Mother Mags about the change regarding Medicare prescription prices in Sen. Sinema — this is a sentence (made by Wolfound)  full of profound wisdom.

And from Ed Tracey, your faithful correspondent this evening ........

In the front-page story about the CNN analyst Fareed Zakaria declaring that US employers are reaping-what-they-have-sown, in terms of employment — PadreMellyrn notes changes in business law that helped poison the well.
