- : Immediately after US presidential election, I posted an article entitled

-
- Yeah - he probably does. That is why I posted not to expect a lessening of
- the War on Truth under Clinton.

- Certainly - like, get the person to a counselor. Had Clinton tried that, before
- he called the cops?

-
- Nope. It does nothing about the stupidity of the rest of the WOD.
-
- : Appointing a Surgeon General who favors legalizing medical mj does *NOT* sound
- : like unyeilding support of the Wo(s)D.
-
- I feel otherwise.
