    Actually, Fey's stated that she'll leave the planet if Palin's elected.

    Well, the Republicans in California actually tried to push through a proportional electoral representation measure back in 2007. [1]

    And it's got tuba, bagpipes, accordion, AND pipe organ! What's not to like?

  23. Re:Series of Tubes on Sen. Ted "Tubes" Stevens Is Indicted · · Score: 1

    The tubes weren't clogged, he just didn't have the patience to wait for the entire Internet sent by his staff to transfer.
