I cannot wait for the mid-term elections! Ugh! Enough of the coat tailing already. If you (senator) have a bill and want it passed. Get it passed without attaching it to someone else’s bill. There is a reason why we the public are so confused about the representatives – coat tailing.

“Uhh… But I thought they were FOR my rights? They voted for something taking away my rights? They wha?”
Huh? Say your senator voted for the SAFE Port Act… You’d smile right. Hey good for you. Now, say you want to gamble online for the heck of it. Just for fun ya know. Sorry. No can do buddy boy. Thanks to the SAFE Port Act online gambling is now illegal. /. has some info on it as well as many conversations on the topic.

Way to be elected officials. Way. To Be.
