- His problem is that he knows that if he says, "Yeah, government should be on that" it starts unraveling his "Government is BAD" hyper-libertarian view -- nm - Qale May 20, 10:54 13
  - He *does* say "government should be on that." Just not for private business. -- nm - mara May 20, 10:56 8

      - "nine out of 10 [titles in the Act] deal with public institutions and I'm absolutely in favor of" -- nm - mara May 20, 11:00 5
        
        Yes. I understand what he said. It's more what he struggled to not say which is what I found more interesting. Like he knew if he said it, he'd lose - Qale May 20, 11:03 3
        
        "Sure, I heard what he said. But did you hear what he DIDN'T say??? He's crazy!" -- nm - Dr.Vermin, ;) May 20, 11:05 2

    - what is his definition of "private business" though? - pixie krakow May 20, 10:58

Q! that's what's nuts - it's their e-mail list I want to be back on. they offered to send me a paper catalog instead. - b. May 20, 10:42 1

  - Bama fans are going to be whining a TON if USC gets off -- nm - Strongbad May 20, 10:49 4
    - If I'm not mistaken; they've been in trouble 3 times in the last 20 years with serious violations - Will Hunting May 20, 10:55 1
      - Yup. I don't think the NCAA has the cojones to win a game of chicken with death-sentence on the line against a major college program. - musubi May 20, 11:00
    - Bama needed to be better at "bending" the NCAA's "rules". - musubi May 20, 10:52 1

  - yeah, that will stop him for sure -- nm - pixie krakow May 20, 10:43
I thought a "two way stop" meant two cars facing eachother. How can there be a person on the right? -- nm - mara May 20, 10:41

  - I only like it when it's seedless. See also: grapes. -- nm - JaxSean May 20, 10:47 3
    - Grapes are most certainly not calorie free -- nm - oblique May 20, 10:48 2
      - I meant seedless. Grapes with seeds in the middle piss me off. -- nm - JaxSean May 20, 10:48 1
