Howdy -—

This is a touchy one. One of those damned if you do, damned if you don’t type issues. Anything said against MADD or some of the assinine DUI laws make one appear as if they are proponents of DUI.

I absolutely despise MADD and what they have become, even though the beginnings of the organization were good and noble. Of course I’m not the only one that feels that way -— even one of the founders walked away in disgust.

Then when you add in the fact that MADD is now controlled by the RWJF, anyone on this list who knows me understands exactly my immense hatred of MADD.

With all of that said, Happy New Year all, and please be smart about consuming adult beverages tonight.

More evidence of the power of unintended consequences.

This is a touchy one.

Only because of the way they describe their position.

They are against drunk driving, so if I am against them, by extension, I am for drunk driving.

As if.

Happy New Year Gabz, and thanks for all the pings.

Pardon my ignorance, but what’s the RWJF?
