I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

One of two reasons I'd imagine.

1. Many people stopped reading his posts.
2. Everyone else got tired of looking up reasons why they stopped reading his posts.

I didn't read anything until I got to your post.

Boing!
onward...through the fog

Farm bill is no problem at all.

Big Brother Drone Monitoring and Reporting, Inc. is the problem.

Try one of these. You'll feel and live longer.



I couldn't find a picture of a straw man wearing one, which would have been more appropriate here.  :P

Neither the Farm Bill, nor drones, nor the high-def picture on my ODL bother me.

I have learning, understanding, and acceptance.
I have been assimilated....

You can have a good read here http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c112:S.3240:

Awsome! You can call your new FOOD STAMPS BILL "The Farm Bill."  

It has been called the Farm Bill for some time.

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/15/washington/15cnd-farm.html

From 2008 (under President Bush)...

Although the legislation is universally known as the farm bill, it actually directs far more money to feeding the poor than it does to helping farmers — about $209 billion for nutrition programs like food stamps, according to the Congressional Budget Office, compared with $35 billion for agricultural commodity programs.


Funny, I don't remember your outrage from this bill when it happened in 2008. Maybe it is because you just supported things that happened under republican President's or maybe it is just because you were ignorant back then.
Power is nothing till you use it.

Where's all your detractors, Gas?  Did they all sleep in today?

My job kept me working a little extra today. Sorry. Lot's going on in trash and recycling around here.

I usually try to counter his ridiculous and hypocritical statements a little faster. Gaspar's energy and free time make me jealous some days.
