"2 ounces bacon-infused bourbon

"Nor are all required purchases stupid. It is not stupid to require us to buy air bags for our cars"
Health Insurance and the Broccoli Test - NYTimes.com. Try citing that example for anyone who wants to buy a Land Rover Defender and see if they agree with you.
"Gun control: If it’s meant to kill animals, keep your laws off it. If it’s meant to kill people, regulate it all you want.

"For example, for the top 20% income group, about 50 % will see an average tax cut of 3900. But about 80 to 90% of the other 4 quintiles will experience tax hikes."
9-9-9 data deserving a chart - Junk Charts. The real question is: When Cain announced his plan did he know it amounted to a tax cut for the rich and a tax hike for everyone else, or was he just making shit up with no idea how it would work in the real world?

Nicely done! TypeKit’s browsing interface has been a pain to use as their library has grown, and the new interface is a wonderful solution.
"Cuts totaling $1 trillion during the first year of a Paul Presidency would be achieved by eliminating five federal cabinet departments – the Departments of Energy, Housing and Urban Development, Commerce, Interior and Education."
Ron Paul Announces Ambitious ‘Plan to Restore America’. What a moron.
