by Smitty Fabius Maximus quotes an email I sent regarding his post “About the political significance of the conservatives’ health care propaganda“. Now Fabius is playing a equivalency card, pointing out historical warnings about major legislation. Fabius, have you seen the national debt?

Fear and Loathing, Et Cetera

Yes, I’m here in fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada, home base for my coverage of the kickoff of the Tea Party Express III tour, among other things. Fortuitously, I arrived on the birthday of Minority Report blogger Steve Foley, and his birthday was celebrated in appropriate fashion. IYKWIMAITYD.

Christine O’Donnell For Senate
