So either your big brain missed that mistake, or you don't care about spelling when one of your liberal pals, like the nymph of the woods is wrong.

Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: I can understand WHY they try these kinds of stunts, from a political standpoint. If someone is voted out, but is still *IN* until the new guy gets sworn in, he can theoretically try to "set us up the bomb", as they say. ;) Of course, it could be just this kind of thing that could be really freeing for an elected official; if he's got nothing to lose, he just might feel like proposing a really SUBSTANTIAL piece of legislation, the kind that nobody in their right mind would ever propose if they thought they had to run for re-election ever again. Third-rail kinda stuff, y'know? Of course, you'd need an awful lot of lame ducks for such legislation to ever have anything close to a chance of passing... AURaptor's Greatest Hits: Friday, May 28, 2010 - 20:32 To AnthonyT: Go fuck yourself. On this matter, make no mistake. I want you to go fuck yourself long and hard, as well as anyone who agrees with you. I got no use for you. Friday, May 28, 2010 - 18:26 To President Obama: Mr. President, you're a god damn, mother fucking liar. Fuck you, you cock sucking community activist piece of shit. ... go fuck yourself, Mr. President.

Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: That's one of the biggest drivers behind the idea of term limits. Take away someone's need to be re-elected, and you take away their fear of doing the right thing AND you free up their time to actually DO shit instead of having to spend all their time fundraising to run for re-election. It's not without its merits.
