dreary diatribes

LOL, far be it from me to launch into my true feelings over our Senatorial representation (lowest conservative vote in over 30 years BTW, that's 'conservatism' that is!!). I just present the facts.

Failure to wear a seat belt contributes to more fatalities than any other single traffic safety-related behavior.

I guess like airbags huh?

"Elizabeth Dole led efforts to make airbags and automatic seatbelts mandatory in new passenger cars."National Safety Council Hall of Fame

Transportation Department itself reports that over 100 children and female adults have been killed by air bags, and 300,000 people injured each year."Liddy Dole’s Regulatory Ride," American Spectator, 6/99.

Economists Charles Lave and Patrick Elias examined the statistics before and after the 55-mile-per-hour law and concluded: "The fatality rate dropped by 3.4% -5.1% following the speed limit increase in states with higher speed limits--Do Higher Speed Limits Cause Accidents, What About All The Studies From The US?

As a conservative first and foremost I just think it is, and always will be, important to show how so called 'conservatives' are affecting our lives on a daily basis. I was sure as someone that was proud to the point of glee that said they voted for the woman, you would want to see how her legacy was doing in the state that she 'claims' as home. I just hope she still has a map though. Last time it took her 30 years and a promise of a Senate seat to come to NC...

If you want to die, be my guest.

Your concern for my wellbeing is just overflowing...

Is it a comprehension problem you have or a retention problem?

I've asked you a million times NOT to ping me, yet you keep on.
