I think that there is an issue that the least interesting question is most controversive. Go you peeps :D

"least interesting????"

Hating on dogs is un-American. I bet you're supporting Obama and hang with William Ayers too. And we know "a Jewish girl" is code for SUPER Top Sekrit MUSLIM.

No wait I am German, my wife is Jewish, sorry about that....

If these colors don't look right to you....

Even worse. You can see Germany from France and we know what that means, you betchya. You can't pull the wool over the eyes of Joe Six Pack with your, your, Washington insider word-using word-user.

I wish I could see Russia from fecking Alaska.
I can sue someone, right? I _must_ be some sort of minority!

I INSIST ON BEING A FRIGGING MINORITY! WE WASPS WANT OUR RIGHTS! NOW!

I wouldn't necessarily be opposed to greyhound racing in theory, but I'm opposed to it the way it's practiced here. I'd rather see a law that was narrower in that it didn't necessarily outlaw betting on dog racing, but broader in that it mandated better treatment for working animals in general (in sufficiently specific language that, if it continued at all, dog racing would have to be conducted in a way I didn't object to). Realistically, I strongly doubt dog racing would continue under those circumstances.

But on that as well as on Question 2, I feel like I'm voting for a law that's not perfect, but represents an improvement.

Sorry for formatting; I'm on the train.

And if it's true that the state currently subsidizes dog racing, my preference would be to vote for a question that simply ends the subsidy. But that's not on the ballot.

If your read the Bible enough, you can see a real-life Flintstones episode. And nope, you can't sue 'cause if anyone thinks they have rights, the terrorizmistas haz won and we can haz no cheezburgers.

Can't see Iceland from anywhere, though. So how did they manage to lose so much of other people's money?

Dude, they probably all went crazy on that firewater they sell at the Duty-free shop at the airport in Reykjavik. That stuff makes the US version of Jagermeister seem like cough syrup for toddlers.

You _sure_ watch the same shows that I do...LEFTY BASTARD!

But I never inhaled, nor did I have sexual relations with that woman.

41 voted yes on 2. That is sick and scary, shows how much of a problem drugs has become in Somerville.

[ron_newman]

Why is it 'sick' or 'scary' ? Voting to make something non-criminal isn't the same thing as actually favoring it or using it.

[ocschwar.livejournal.com]

Don't worry. It's 44 now.

Cigars, Vagina?

Reminds me of this Person on America goes Trivial Pursuit, she wouldn't frigging know "Aqua Teen Hunger Force"...

[dylanesque29.livejournal.com]

You're way off....it's 57 and counting.

[shirt-seeker.livejournal.com]

It seems though that this is something Americans can't quite grasp.

Two great tastes that go together........

Wouldn't know ATHF??? What's next, not knowing Robot Chicken?

That's 'cause all the stoners are waking up now and getting ready for a night of REEFER MADNESS. If you have teenage daughters or sheep, lock them up now 'cause they'll end up being turned into DRUG FIENDS and knocked up like the daughter of a vice-presidential candidate.

dOOM. DoOm. DOOm.
