Is "contortions the law" going to be a national obsession if Trump wins?

But I digress. I recall growing up in the 1980's seeing in the newspaper every 4 years the Klan endorsement of the Republica presidential nominee. Yes, even the Klan switched sides along with Reagan. It would be buried somewhere around page 4 or 5 in the A section. I can imagine editors and publishers having tortured debates: "Is this newsworthy?"

"Is it biased?" The mind reels.

Most concerning to me is the urging from right wing biggies to their minions to load their muskets and prepare for violence.

I hope all they have is muskets.

One last question. What would the Libertarians replace the dollar with?

I hope they pick Lifesavers hard candy rolls. I have thousands of those! Unfortunately I keep eating them.....

The libertarian plan (or “plan”) would presumably be to replace the dollar with Bitcoin and then hope that everyone is okay with their savings being depleted by 70 percent, and then up 300 percent, and then down by 90 percent within the course of a week.

When you said that Assange has links with the KGB, are you sure you don’t mean the FSB? The KGB no longer exists.
