You're trying to absolve those very voters of the responsibility for this fiasco that they so eminently deserve.

How did you get this from my post? I was just joking about the term "Beaners" - I think Bostonians are known as "Beaneaters," but that's a whole 'nother story. I agree with you, and absolve NO ONE for what happened. My posting history (the serious comments, anyway) shows that anytime I disagree with a political result, I blame EVERY INDIVIDUAL involved in the process, from the executive to the legislature to the administrators to the "law enforcers" to the tax collectors to the lobbyists to the voters to the beneficiaries of government largesse. EVERYONE involved is to blame - I could not agree with you more. Plus, I've spent most of my life in Boston, so you can imagine how much the political scene here sickens me.

BTW, my apologies for the delayed reply - I've been out all day after my post.

Is he that funny all the time? Is his show still on?

Sorry for the delay in responding. Yes he is, and Comedy Central is about to begin airing his 3rd season. Cool!
