I finally landed a temp job, and last night was the first night that I have gotten home before midnight since I started. And miracle of miracles, I don’t have to be in until 0900 today. So I hit the SDMB and lo and behold, what do I find? The usual pack of liberal pussies whining, bitching and moaning over Beck’s list, and the fact that I dared post something from Beck in their little liberal preserve.

Nice. I would apologize if this was an isolated incident, but as **Brain Glutton** points out, you sort of have a history of this behavior. I do appreciate the name calling, though. If you’re calmer now, would it be possible for you to discuss the merits of the questions that you put forth?  
Unrelated, here, but how is the POTUS responsible for your lack of work?

I was thinking either that, or he worked for a company that made waterboards.
