The repubs have the state so gerrymandered that they have a lock on the process. Still, again, I voted, so I am allowed to bitch. "Religion, n.

Alex "There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." -- Isaac Asimov

You've no right to complain. I disagreed with George about this for years, but now I see he was correct all along.

There's an awful lot more to the law and civil society than what you're railing against tonight. Venting is fine and good, but have some perspective, Ok? Voting is vital. People died so that we would have the right to vote. Cheers, Scott.
Post #396,114 by hnick 11/7/14 5:54:35 AM Reply	Oh, crud. You're back on the "well, this side is fractionally less bad about {item1} so ignore all the other similarities.". It's not flying any more. The system needs MAJOR overhaul. And it won't happen from the inside. WE have to do it. It's going to be messy. "Religion, n.
