“It is hard to estimate the number of elephants by just looking at them because the rain forest is very lush. The elephants will find you faster than you see them,” Gumal said.

    Actually, that’s not so far fetched. When we visited Rocky Mountain National Park last year (we are frequent visitors, a favored place) we stopped in the park visitors center. On the book shelf was a book entitled, “Who Pooped in the Woods?”. I thought it had to be a joke. Nope. A researcher/scientist wrote it on the premise that each animal species has distinctive, well, poop. You can tell the animal by the pile’s shape, texture, color and so forth. I suppose we humans are, well, also distinctive in our…poop… and logic follows that the subspecies of CINOs would have a distinctive…poop.

    Hey. YOU brought it up!

    I watch for the line that pseudo conservatives and RINO’s use; “Actually, I’m more ‘libertarian’.
    Have you ever thought of how much of bureaucracy libertarians would cause by having all their guarantees ensured – (By whom? Government of course.)?

    you can get their droppings (votes) e-mailed right to your home to keep track. http://www.congress.org/congressorg/home/
    Of course the first Obama SCOTUS appointment will reveal all just note at who nods and winks at the Ginsberg clone.

    Baraq will employ whomever is a SCOTUS replacement as a stilletto, effectively driving into the back of the country. Ginsberg is just holding out so that this tactic can be employed.
    Watch for the roll-backs on most decisions on just about every decision over the past few years.
    Be alert for the diminshing, if not the eroding, of state sovereignty.

    yes why bother repealing an ammendment (ie the tenth) or ammending the Constitution when you can simply invent new meaning
