hell we allowed Islam to be in their constitution.

OMG We are so totally awesome!

Or total pussies?  I mean, like, we actually allowed this?  Imagine the Good Ol' USA allowing Islam to be in the constitution of a Moooslimish country that we invaded liberated!   Pshaw!

but there really hasn't been much to talk about.  This masterstroke from the GOP really deserves this quick dash of diary devotion.

Don't anyone get the idea that you can go runnin' roughshod over the patriotic outspeakers - the site is heavily filtered to keep out anything offensive or inappropriate!

(Really!)

Sorry to put this dark thought into your head ND, but what if you just haven't yet been invited into the inner circle yet?

That'll keep you up nights!

I couldn't resist but I promise this will be my last post distracting from the diary itself.

4s?

My poor version of MyDD allows a range of only 0 - 2.  There certainly are comments that deserve the higher recognition, but those would be exceptional occasions.

As for who is saying nothing, I'll only agree that replying to your bizarre accusations is not at all productive and is a distraction from Strummerson's thoughtful diary.  If your rebuttal to my fairly empty comment manages to steer clear of personal insults I'll just leave it unanswered, ensuring that you get the last word on the matter.  Maybe then the diary can return to the serious discussion for which it was intended.

Thugs?!?  

You really want to hit that note?  Really?  

After the last several days I thought we'd all had more than enough name-calling, and of this name in particular.  

Thanks but the sig is pretty old now.  I'd try to update it but I think there's a character limit.  

That felt good!

The situation aside, it's nice to see your name around here again!

Huh?  You're talking about a reference from A Clockwork Orange?

Check the user pages a little more closely and you'll see they have links to what appears to be an online shoe store.  

I've got to buy because nothing lures me to a shiny pair of Gucci knock-offs like a sexy Canadian tax diary!

Actually I meant to direct that comment to the diarist now that he's been outed as the ringleader of the paid blogging shills.    

Aha!

Proof that you're nothing more than a paid shill!

Which of the others are members of your 'team'?

The cleansing is a comin'!

True, but his message is can't so I just go with the kool spelling.

Will you hold your tongue already?

Jeez!  Kant has spoken and all you can do is argue.  This is nothing more than a meaningless gesture.  Nobody in the history of this blog has provided dire predictions with the accuracy and thought of the hard-typing Kant.  Instead of thanking him for his tireless work and setting out to worry, you try to hijack the diary for your own pathetic reality-based agenda.  Well I'll tell you Mr. last-name-first, hijacking is frowned upon here.  If you can't quake with fear and the right type of righteous anger upon reading Kant's rants (TM) then you are clearly not understanding the depth of our collective error in focusing on the Executive and throwing away Congress --- forever!!!
