That vote gave 217 congressmen a First-class ticket out of office.

There's roughly 0% chance that the voting public will give a shit about this / remember their congressman's stance come 2014/16

Any smart candidate will hammer the absolute shit out of this vote. They could literally turn it into a one-issue election.

I encourage you to check the comments section on anything that our President's Facebook page says. The amount of people that are completely clueless about the situation is astonishing. I admit my faults in being able to see the future and what has happened with our "free" country, but to not see it now makes you completely blind.

I hate the fact that anytime a political discussion comes up, I have to bow at the feet of Felix.

You think that whoever runs against Anthony Weiner might disagree with you a bit there? I'm guessing a 2nd issue might be needed.

There was a news article link today that read, [some woman's name] disgusted by Weiner.

I was amused.

The typical weasel line will be "well I don't support the program, but using a defense bill to do away with it.....blah blah blah"

	The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
