    Is it just me or is Dan Burton throwing his wretched old ass in the fire again. Didn't he learn a lesson when he tried to take the moral high road during the Lewinsky matter, yet it was uncovered that he had an illegitimate child and back child support due?

    What Clinton did is so obvious why does this ole dustbag need to form a committee to find out? And is he and his party so dumb to think they havent sold out for cash inthe past either..in way of pardons or legislation?

    I tell ya, the republican congress MISSES Clinton already, they have nothing to do and are STILL chasing him.

    guess what, patrick: between political scandals over trivial things, survivor, who wants to be a millionaire and professional sports, the people of the US of A are too busy thinking about things that have no bearing to focus on what is really important.

    smoke a j, read chomsky, drink six tecates, read chomsky and pass out. we're all americans here.

    except those who aren't.

    and then again, those who aren't kind of are, aren't they...

    Last night on biography they profiled Jonathan Winters. He said the network execs were hassling him when he had his own tv show, and told him that "Americans don't want to think after 6:00 pm."

    Am I a thread killer, or what?

    I was thinking today, why, when asking a question about yourself is the verb "Aren't I", as in "Aren't I coming with you"? However, reversed, you don't say "I aren't". I suppose you could say, "Am I not", but that sounds more formal.

    Whatever.

    Ain't it so? "Ain't" would resolve this nicely for you. One of many superior sensible and economical grammatical constructions that are frowned on by the authorities because the "lower classes" use them.
