It’s the gubmint. There are rooms filled with people of marginal mental acuity and stability who get paid vast sums of money to come up with inane and cumbersome figures to be inflicted upon the citizenry. Just look at any tax form.

Not unless we bring our feelings about it to his attention rather forcefully and quickly!!! As Barney Fife said:"We gotta nip this in the bud, Andy!"

Hey! If'n ya don't tell 'em, how they gonna know? (even when it's obvious they already knew better) They always wanna stack the deck so they can claim they've patronized each and every element of the political spectrum and I think that's just plain BOGUS!!!

In case you haven’t been following my posts, I have not exactly been endearing myself to the Fredheads here.

Damn CFR2

(CFR1 is Council on Foreign Relations, CFR2 is Campaign Finance Reform)

Fred is doomed.

OK actually I don’t remember if that limit is tied to CFR2, but since letting fact get in the way of a good rant seems so out of fashion with the Antifredites, I figure what the hell...

Well, I guess I missed that action. But I guess I’d better back off of jumpin on Fred on another “Rah-Rah” thread for him. It’s probably just bad manners. Sorry Petronsky... Hey! Wait a minute... pissant started this thread, not Petronsky!! You don’t do “Rah-Rah” threads for Fred, do you pissant???

Not really a rah rah thread, more of a neutral thread of interest. I’m capable of that once in a blue moon.
