That screen shot just pains me to look at it.
Even obvious details are wrong like one set of reply buttons being flat and another set with gradients. This is really sloppy.

Here are those sections in RTM. http://imgur.com/Uz5xi0t http://imgur.com/k3Comek
edit: It appears the reply buttons do squish like that on narrower screens though, but it's at around 1000px wide or less, so that's really a non-point in this day and age. Gradient issue isn't there though.
Although this by no means affects your main point about the organisation/visual hierarchy.
