they are playing right now. They are going to introduce all sorts of crazy bills for some stupid reason that I forget.

So maybe someone else can remember why they do this?

i'm losing count of how many horrible bills have been put forward in the last few weeks. i can't even keep track of it all. i just hope none of them actually get passed. that's when we really need to worry.
