The DC Chapter Warlord called a stealth freep today. I was unable to attend but I'm sure that an After Action Report will be posted soon. This is intended as an appetizer.

Mr. Robbins called President Dale Petroskey one of the "cowards and ideologues"

I'm impressed. He actually said ideologues? I understand that he has script writers, but how long did it take him to get the pronunciation down?

Could be, but in Timmy's case I think he may still be wearing Susan's garter belt.
