ooooh I've gotta remember that one.

I am following Rule 2 Of Political Advocacy closely. You, Redux, are in for quite an epiphany, it seems. But I really ought, indeed, to get what I promised done before the end of Advent!

I am sure that what persuaded me will in the end persuade you also. I think I may correctly assume genocide is something you do not like?

I'm calling rule 34 on Redux

The republicans aren't the only ones. . .

The below Democrats voted to kill health care reform in Congress. We can no longer elect people just because they have a 'D' next to their name. The PCCC is dedicated to electing bold progressives to Congress in 2010. Sign up to join our cause.

What are those numbers? How many points they are worth? :sniper:

That's their district number, within their home state. These are Congressmen from the House of Representatives, not the Senate.

Damm, I thought that was their IQ.

Which would explain why they are all negative numbers.

Zen is invoking the Heinlein definition of a committee here.
