Absent the search function failing me (again), I'm surprised this hasn't already been posted.

An excellent read with lots of embedded links.

[elkfersupper]

Ping.

Send the hateful comments to the author.

He's having a fabulous time posting them on his weblog today (BTW, he links back to Free Republic very often, so watch out.

That wasn't a "hateful comment" (and wasn't intended to be) - It's really a very funny joke in and of itself.

"Someone in Congress will introduce legislation calling for a national ID card, but with Orwellian panache, will attempt to assuage fears of civil libertarians by calling for the words "this is not a national ID card" to be printed on the actual national ID card."

I laughed -- but then realized that this is all too possible.

[elkfersupper]

You're right, of course.

Actually, I did giggle at that.

Just a warning, and you were handy.

No offense.

[elkfersupper]

this is all too possible.It's already happened, and that's his point.

Click his links--very well done.

[elkfersupper]

And for some reason, I can't type, enter HTML or proofread tonight, so I think I'll stop awhile and work on my hands.

Talk amongst yourselves.

I'm starting to fade - so this is for a morning read..........Thanks!!!!

[elkfersupper]

this is for a morning read

Something for everybody in there, so don't forget!

You wouldn't believe the amount of hate mail he's getting-from all quadrants.

You must be a Texas fan as well: I can't so much as find my head today. I know I must've left it somewhere.

[elkfersupper]

You must be a Texas fan as well

Nope, not really a sports fan, but I've seen and heard of a lot of those symptoms today. My sympathies and congratulations.

I'm just old and cold.

<< Someone in Congress will introduce legislation calling for a national ID card, but with Orwellian [Roosevelt-ian??] panache, will attempt to assuage fears of civil libertarians by calling for the words "this is not a national ID card" to be printed on the actual national ID card. >>

Nothing new about that!

Where's this guy been sleeping these past 70 years?

That's the SS Card, the final hallmark of the [Effective Soviet-agent/traitor, Roosevelt] totalitarian state, he's describing.

Beg to differ. Just more pap from celebrated "Losertarian" Amazing Randy Balko.

It's wonderful to see how posted comments totally ignore this cretin.

Randy Son, your'e giving Texas a bad name by claiming to be one.

[CBart95]

No doubted named after the famous Saint Radley.

Just more pap from celebrated "Losertarian" Amazing Randy Balko.

My tagline applies to those who use "losertarian" as well.

[M203M4]

Meh, who needs personal responsibility? Ain't that the government's job?

/sarcasm

[CBart95]

What makes you think that anyone gives a damn about you and your almighty "tagline"?

It's a surprise that your keepers even allow you access to a connection to the outside world.

Have fun with your self-importance and pomposity. Know full well that no one cares a fig about your almighty highness.
