Any normal person understands that the newspapering world was overrun long ago by pecksniffy uber-liberal nanny-staters who want to stand over the rest of the human race as part of a Big Brother dystopian, totalist regime. They're maggots, in other words.

Do you think they care about this issue? They care about whether they can get over on Dakotan voters. That's what they care about.
