I got really sick last night, so I've not been in a good mood.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Siegy, if you're going to post retarded far right dad-spam pictures please have them be more of the "cute girls in vaguely implied bondage" rather than "grainy pictures of Obama".

Thanks!

Roger.

On a different note, I heard Fat Boy say he wasn't opposed to the minimum wage change per se, he just thought it didn't belong in the state constitution.
He wasn't opposed to the concept, but he couldn't come to an agreement with the Democrats on the terms, and so the Democrats decided to go over his head and put their proposal to referendum.  I'm sure the primary reason he was opposed to the referendum was because it was designed to leave him out of the negotiation.

What are your reasons for disregarding his stated objection?  I find it to be a reasonable one.

Common sense.  If someone takes an action to completely cut you out of negotiation, you're not going to like it.  You're also not going to object to that action on the grounds that your feelings are hurt.  You're going to look for an objection that sounds plausibly reasonable.

Common sense leads to the conclusion that very view people will offer an explanation for their actions that they believe will make them look bad.  It does not however, lead us to choose that explanation over other completing explanations.

Else, by your logic, we would only ascribe bad motivations to every act.  Even those performed by people who are not moderate Republicans with centrist appeal.  :P

I think she's a little old for you.  She can't be much more than 15 or 16.

I find it interesting that Siege can't actually tell me why he's a conservative or what the conservative movement is about.

I really wonder what the French porno chick next to her said to earn that glare.
