I hate insider jokes so i had to do a Google search on good old Red. Damn, i never watched the 70's Show but i did come across this cut that helped me get it: "Damn U.S. government?" If the U.S. government decides to stick a tracking device up your ass, you say, "Thank you! And God Bless America!" Too funny.

I once introduced Michael Moore at a fund raiser and i mentioned to him i didn't watch much TV. He told me quite bluntly; "if you don't watch, how do you have any idea what your members are thinking?" Hmmmmmmmmm?

Anyway Dave, both you and Steve nailed this Tennessee debacle and sadly whenever anyone mentions how far right the far right has moved, and how stupidly (is that even a word?), all we hear from their defenders is, ya but what about the far left? Hate to say this, but there's no comparative's when it comes to the bone headed moves we've seen of late from the far right odd balls permeating the GOP. NONE!
