- This isn't a flame (in the sense of nasty words and personal slurs) so it's
- not going directly to Evan - but I don't mind political discussions at all,
- as long as they don't dominate the content. Heck, until there is a new
- album, something has to occupy the list :)
-
- The Motor-Voter Act is a great idea. Yes, voting should be taken seriously,
- but you have to be ABLE to vote before you think seriously about your
- choice. And how seriously do you think the majority of American voters
- (until the last time, a smallish percentage of the overall American
- population) take their choices anyway? Making it difficult for people to
- register is not going to eliminate stupid voters.
-
- John Major: poo. Commonwealth: yay. Queen: yay. Independence for Scotland:
- yay.
