    There's no way this boneheaded bill will get past the Republican controlled House.

    It's not about getting past . . . it's about posturing, posing and voguing by the Rep. He just wants to make a fuss about something so his constituents will maybe think that he is actually doing something useful for them.

    "The government has been working on vaccines that cause autism to use against political enemies by the IRS, which will be running Obamacare, which is why the IRS sorted out the political enemies' tax exemption forms, because those political enemies are against Obamacare, so they won't get the Obamacare autism causing vaccines, which is why the IRS planned to delay processing the tax exemption forms, until the paper borne version of the virus could complete testing in Libya, but the Libyans discovered that the IRS papers distributed to them by the US embassy were the cause of their autistic births, and then stormed the embassy, which was covered up by the government to look like an average Islamic riot, which was working, until the Associated Press found out about it, and was planning to publish, but IRS found out about that, and told then the FBI to tap the phone lines of the Associated Press, so they could find all the journalists and the government leaks, so they could be given a potent adult version of the autistic causing vaccine, and therefore silence them all up, and so this is why the Associated Press reporters are acting all autistic now, and . . .

    Most top colleges these days are obsessed with students that show profound personal initiative and social engagement, which are both activities that cost money.

    My extracurricular activities in high school were drama club, marching band and church choir. That was enough to get accepted at MIT and Princeton. Neither cost much money.

    What an acceptance at an elite university will cost you . . . is time. You need to work hard in high school to get top grades. I was doing my homework while others were partying. The local reps from both schools grilled me in interviews about political, social and science issues that were outside of high school curriculum. I was an avid reader of "Time" magazine and the "World Book Encyclopedia." Others were watching "Dallas" and pondering profound existential questions like, "Who shot J.R.?"

    Sure, money helps. But you can get by without it, as well.
