4. Not even Joe McCarthy was boorish enough to call the president a liar on the floor of congress
And even the GOP of the 1950's had enough sense to censure McCarthy. If the GOP doesn't censure this Joe as well, they are simply going to go down as the party that was ruled by emotion and not reason. By censuring Wilson, they have a golden opportunity to score a few points with people who actually have more than a couple of synapses actively firing, but I have no doubt they are going to blow it.

6. I would suggest going to your local school
Edited on Thu Sep-10-09 08:09 AM by MattBaggins
and asking a kindergarten teacher if you could sit in on a few classes and see if you can learn why basic respect is crucial in a civil society. There might be some adult versions on the importance of appropriate dissent and behavior but I learned this stuff in kindergarten so it is the only source I am really familiar with.

As far as questing your government; I haven't played D&D in years so I am a bit rusty on what saving throws apply in questing your government.
