What a load of crap. Corporatism at it's finest. I'm sure it isn't a coincidence that the Super Bowl is this Sunday and atdhe provided the best place to watch NFL games online

When are people going to wake up and see this stuff for what it is, or even pay attention to what's going on around them? I mean, sheesh...

On a slightly related tangent, I thought of one bill I would like to see passed that would be rendered impossible by the one-subject-at-a-time act. It'd be a rollback of sorts, repealing any and all laws passed by congress, and disbanding any bureaucratic agencies formed, after 1875. I had an idea where I'd attach the bill to something else, like a renewal of some welfare program for orphans with Lou Gherig's disease (who would vote against that), and write the text in a mixture of Klingon and Chinese. I mean, if the Patriot Act passed without being read, it's possible that this might get passed as well, right? Is there a rule in congressional procedure that says that all bills must be written in English? =P
