    Sidney, you sly dog you....

    You could've based this entire article on its last sentence. But you were right to end it there given the gravity of the situation.

    Will the President, or will the President not finally mature though and stop trying to drag this country through the most reactionary fantasy since seccession is definetly what we all should be focused on.

    Thanks for your hard work Mr. B...great job!
