Comment #1 says it all, but none the less... it still holds true. Just what we need, another study that will help more companies retain data for longer. Oi!
Now the hard part. Getting it to pass with minimal pork. HR 676 (National Health Care) has been introduced in 108, 109, and 110, but never really got anywhere. We can only hope it will get somewhere.
Not that I support her claim, but none the less... think about the social security system. In my opinion, I believe it is there for the simple fact that the government is "rewarding" tax payers for so many years of paying taxes. Along with retirement funds, this lets the older generation live (sometimes) comfortably in their later years.
From her point of view, she wants to retire. She has had a long and successful career, and is now ready to relax (with select appearances here and there). To her, the royalties are like a social security check... its not much compared to what she currently has, but its something she can maybe blow on her grandkids, or indulge herself in whim. Either way, it sounds like this is (more or less) her position.
That being said, what do you think the lesser of the evils are?
True, but if you grasp at enough straws, you might just find one that sticks. While I am not a lawyer, I would think there would be some legal name for that type of straw grasping.
Probably, but a lot less expensive. Tho about the PDA... for anything too far you would probably have to give it a program to follow rather than control it manually... bluetooth, for as far as it works, only works in the general area.

...And yet I have not heard anyone say anything about being caught red handed. :p

Looks like someone has been browsing Brass Goggles on their free time :-p
Actually, there is usually a third option, or write in. But either way. I wouldn't be suprised if we see a surge in votes for independent candidates.
