I am sorry you feel jealous of my star. Don't worry if you work hard and concentrate a little more you too can get a star. "but if you make yourselves sheep, the wolves will eat you." Benjamin Franklin |

The republicans are scared to death at the notion of making voting easier as they realize it will redound against them. Young people, as has often been the case in America, are not too politically involved; they much prefer to use their i-phones. Allowing them to vote by using their i-phones will likely result in millions more ballots being cast, which otherwise would not have happened. |

Yes, worried about fraud. We keep hearing about young people who "did not understand what they were signing" as an excuse to forgive student loans. You think I want someone that stupid voting? War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

Stupid people have the same right to vote as smart people, unfortunately. Thankfully, AZDuffman does not get to decide who can vote and who can’t. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Philly is hugely uncomfortable in the summer, the humidity is a killer. The original Continental Congress was in Philadelphia and they adjourned in the summer because it was so humid in the buildings they couldn't conduct business. By the time air conditioning was invented taking the summer off was such an ingrained part of being in Congress that they still do it. There is absolutely no reason for them to take summer off, it's not like they work hard when they're in session If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

The more time Congress takes off the better. Keep them out of DC for 10 months a year as far as I am concerned. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |
