If anything the gaggle of weak kneed DNC flunkies today are anything but that. The Crusade today is "Anything but Bush, but nothing alarming or radical."

I have yet to hear one solid plan or good idea from the lot of them. And they are our best and brightest hope? Anyway Sidney, as you well know the era of Constitutional law as the underpinnings of Executive power died a long time ago. It's all executive ruling, fiat. It's all regulatory law. The Constitution is, at best a talk show for the Bill of Rights crowd who get off endlessly screaming about guns, god and abortion and possibly the 4th amendment and to some extent the 8th . The rest of it is largely superfluous to the blogging classes and it always will be.

The next President which, unless the Dems do something typically stupid, will be a Dem won't leave Iraq, won't touch abortion or guns or god. At best they'll make some pronouncements about rendition but they'll leave Gitmo open. In the mean time we're headed for a Depression, gas will be $7 gal there will be food shortages, people will starve and freeze. But hey - we got a Dem and now some Arab expats won't get sent to Syria to be abused. We're great. We fucking rule!

It was about redemption. Sorry you missed that.

And Noah's films are like parlor stories. It's only when you're done watching them you realize how trite and mundane yet another story about divorce is.

But I think that was your point. Advice is worthless.

...Sell your right to vote absolutely. I applaud you, my slackers.

Most at NYU say their vote has a price

Two-thirds say they'll do it for a year's tuition. And for a few, even an iPod touch will do.

That's what NYU students said they'd take in exchange for their right to vote in the next presidential election, a recent survey by an NYU journalism class found.

Only 20 percent said they'd exchange their vote for an iPod touch.

But 66 percent said they'd forfeit their vote for a free ride to NYU. And half said they'd give up the right to vote forever for $1 million.

But they also overwhelmingly lauded the importance of voting.

Ninety percent of the students who said they'd give up their vote for the money also said they consider voting "very important" or "somewhat important"; only 10 percent said it was "not important."

Also, 70.5 percent said they believe that one vote can make a difference — including 70 percent of the students who said they'd give up their vote for free tuition.

The class — "Foundations of Journalism," taught by journalism department chairwoman Brooke Kroeger — polled more than 3,000 undergraduates between Oct. 24 and 26 to assess student attitudes toward voting.

"The part that I find amazing is that so many folks think one vote can make a difference," Sociology Department Chairman Dalton Conley said. He added, "If we take them at their word, then perhaps they really think votes matter, and that's why someone might pay a year's tuition to buy theirs."

Sixty percent of the students who said they'd give up their vote for tuition also described their families' income as upper-middle or high.

Their reasons for giving up their votes varied.

"At the moment, no candidate who truly represents my political beliefs has a chance of winning a presidential election," one male junior studying film and television at the Tisch School of the Arts wrote on the survey.

"It is very easy to convince myself that my vote is not essential," wrote a female CAS sophomore. "After all, I'm from New York, which will always be a blue state."

Other students wrote that they were disgusted by the thought.

"I would be reversing history — a lot of people fought so that every citizen could be enfranchised," said a female in her second year at the Stern School of Business.

One CAS junior went even further, writing that "anyone who'd sell his lifelong right to vote should be deported."

Be still my heart. Dear Lord, I never heard of that one before.

Wow, haven't seen that one before. Golly.

Kiss noise to you too.

This year I spent about 400 hrs building things with Habitat for Humanity. But I bet your blogging is all up in that denim shirted man of the people horseshit.

How's Zabar's today?

this is not creative writing class and your post literally makes no sense. Are you 15, stupid or under/over medicated?

At least it's a human woman and not a dog or marmoset though. Because THAT would be weird.

Having 150 million poor people living at sea level in a hurricane zone either. About 1/3rd of the country (the size of Iowa) floods each year.
