    Tea Party rallies (and their "ilk", as someone so kindly called them in a different thread)? Definitely NOT ok.

    Just thought you should know.

    (Sorry gals. I do like this forum, but sometimes I feel it's not as "non-partisan" as it could be, which is why I don't post very often.)

    (I DO agree that this particular DA needs to find another job ASAP, and the driver should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.)

    (Ok...I'm done. Commence the flogging...)
    Well, since I started the thread about the Daily Show rally... I was asking if anyone was going to an event on the mall. It wasn't about advocating any particular position, just seeing if anyone was going to attend, and to see if anyone had any interest in meeting up. Which was why it was in the Mid-Atlantic forum, since I was asking folks who live near DC. If someone wanted to see if anyone was planning to attend a different event, whether it was a Tea Party rally or a Smithsonian festival or Rolling Thunder or whatever, I wouldn't care.

    It's not whether or not the post was left leaning or right leaning, but rather about whether or not it was accurate.....

    I can call the sky green all I want and say its my opinion, but its not accurate...

    It's just not accurate to blame the situation on a "liberal judge" - for one it was the DA's decision, not a judge and that particular DA isn't particularly liberal.... and beyond that it would be pretty well against liberal beliefs to act in such a way anyway.

    I take it you've never hung out on any dieting or mommy boards. This is nuthin'. I'm not getting out the popcorn for this.

    On-topic. It's all about the Benjamins. Lohan, Hilton, et al. should have been behind bars ages ago.

    I think it's going to take coffee rather then Popcorn. I didn't make it through on just a candy bar, so coffee or perhaps a mocha. I'm staying out of the fray, ducking entering and leaving. Nicities went out the window in this one, I say ducking and weaving. :-)

    (stepping into my flame proof suit)

    If you can fall asleep and kill someone without knowing it from apnea then perhaps it is time to limit/disallow driving for those diagnosed with severe and untreatable or untreated apnea...(not unlike limitations on driving for epileptics). Of course this never stops people from driving anyway and who knows how many people are undiagnosed.
