In my opinion: State Rep. Ernest Hewett was so far out of line . . . .



I have so many things to add . . . but I'll limit it to one:
She was/is underage. He said that to a child!

The 12 Suggested Steps of DUmmies Unanimous



1. We admitted we were powerless over DU--that our lives had become unmanageable.

2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could tombstone us at will.

3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of Skinner as we understood Him.

4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of the opposing factions(s) and their advocates.

5. Admitted to the Magistrate the exact nature of their wrongs. [img][/img]

6. Were entirely ready to have The Admin remove all these defects of character. [img][/img]

7. Humbly asked Them to remove our tombstones and reinstate us. [img][/img]

8. Made a list of all persons whom we had put on Ignore or whose threads we had hijacked, and became willing to fake amends to them all. [img][/img]

9. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would entail inconveniences on our part. [img][/img]

10. Continued to take inventory of opposing candidates and their proponents and when they were wrong promptly tried to make them admit it. [img][/img]

11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with Admin, as we understood Them, praying only that they would ignore our ad hominem attacks and overlook our flamewars. [img][/img]

12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to the trolls, Morans and FReepers. [img][/img]

About In_The_Wind

Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieve it on its way, Do not go gentle into that good night. Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. ~~~~~~~~~ For, it ends in the blink of an eye. Carpe Diem (Seize the day)!
