What's frustrating with Rand Paul taking up this banner is that the guy has a fucking M.D.  He definitely has no excuse.

Not sure I understand the need to pander to fringe lunatics.  Are there really that many people in MURICA who believe vaccines are bad? :ph34r:

I think his view is ideological rather than rational.  He has to be against government coercion even if it is the best thing for people's health.

Yes, but in the article Jacob quoted from he seemed to be suggesting vaccines can screw kids up, too.  He could have just stuck to his usual libertarian talking points, but for some reason he felt compelled to go there also.

Vaccines?  None at all.

One of my friends has managed to talk using hashtags. Every time she speaks, she finishes with a single uttering of words that somehow sum up the whole thing.

Sample from a phone call today (translated from Catalan):

Me: Hey, wanna meet for coffee today?
Her: I can't, I'm busy today. #Toomuchwork.
Me: What about tomorrow?
Her: I think I can make that, let me get back to you later. I'd love to see you. #Coffeewithfriends.

Reminds me of when all the kids were actually saying 'lol' instead of just laughing.

Good, the world is too serious a place for laughter.  :mad:
