A Great Use of Tax Dollars

Neither. I was just addressing taxwonk's arguments that you couldn't call it supported by tax dollars.

I don't care whether they have this magazine or not at Harvard. I just think that if women students pose for it, they will likely regret it in the future unless they go into the entertainment industry.

I think even Madonna regrets those pics she took as a 19 year old. She had those nasty hairy pits. Bleech!

Here is one of those pics:

So then they can't be used for student activity fees, which are none of those items. Where's your beef?
I should have said tuition and fees. You can use the money for anything the university requires you to pay for, including fees and health insurance and books. Plus you can use it for school supplies and living expenses while you are in school.

That's a very attentuated argument you're making. But I'm getting bored, so I'll let it pass.

You should feel sad, really. He posts an article about chicks in the altogether, and his first thought, the thought he memorializes in the re: line, is --- taxes?

If there's anything that has convinced me that the prototypical conservative mind is not firing on all cylinders . . . .

He had to make it relevant to the politics board.

Had this been FB material he would properly have lamented the Seminolization of a formerly great university. And, remember, it was Harvard chicks, not just any chicks. They still pee in the shower, as I recall.

Reality TV

In case anyone's interested, looks like some investigative TV shows are doing extended reports from within Iraq and Afghanistan:

He would have been scooped on the FB for like an hour. While I stand by my dislike of conservatives, I can't help but be slightly turned on by the bringing of tax into sex. Mmmmmmm, tax.

And since life has re-descended into suckiness, I need that little ping. So get off his back.

More turnabout from our Democratic hopeful.

I state publicly that "I am against Gay Marriage"

This has to be leaking from the Dean/Edwards campaign. Rove wants this stuff leaked after the convention, not before.

You ruined the other one. But please review my latest post on FB and share thoughts. I think it might be an interstate commerce thingy.

This could be helpful.

So, I'm thinking that I can get a job, not show up for work, and then if they try to get paychecks back, I can just say, well, you paid me, therefore I was at work.

"When you serve, you are paid for that service," White House press secretary Scott McClellan said. "These documents outline the days on which he was paid. That means he served. And these documents also show he met his requirements. And it's just really a shame that people are continuing to bring this up. . . . These documents clearly show that the president fulfilled his duties."

Speaking of not showing up for work, where the hell is Ty? Did I say something to offend you, Ty, and is that why you haven't been around today? How the hell was I to know you are a polygamist?

Fine then. I am sorry that I said that polygamist shouldn't be able to marry each other. I take it back.

How'd I ruin it?

Too tired to read the link, but I do think you should give the toys a try.
