    Keep telling yourself that. Your federal tax rate would be the same, except for FICA, and the GOP was on board with ending the holiday.

    Didn't Richard Lamm say the same thing 30 years ago when he said the elderly have a "duty to die?"

    yeah, it's hell to be out of a near-fucking-depression with an economy that's looking up despite a fucking obstructionist congress.
    fuck that guy.

    Not sure I get the Soylent Green reference -- never seen the movie -- I've just seen a clip of someone shouting "Soylent Green is people."

    But here's what I was referencing:

    Death is the ultimate cost-cutter, sadly enough.

    If you don't get the Soylent Green reference, you need to stop posting here.

    Soylent Green is SportsJournalists.com 102, second semester of the basic SportsJournalists.com survey course.

    I thought it was a great reference. Of course I saw the movie.

    Watching Secretary Clinton against the senators.

    Dems: why in the hell couldn't you nominate her five years ago instead of the novelist? She is an actual leader and actually sees things through. (As a conservative, I never thought I would write this. Ms. Clinton was very impressive.)
