 A judge decides to recuse himself. Only you can see it- if the others could see what problems you create then there wouldn't be the problem.

 It takes a lot to read this board, and I don't have the time right now to do the necessary background research to refute or accept any arguments pro or con anything in particular.  
Plus, a lot of the stuff that ya'll have been talking about, I don't really think deserves comment or I don't have an opinion on.  I will say I went to an art opening tonight that had a piece that was based on a photo that you posted today.  A lot of thought and care went into that piece and it made me think a lot more than your photo did.  
As for the torture issue, I'm on fairly good terms with someone who 
an interrogator for the US Army and strongly, strongly, strongly feels that torture does not work and is in fact counter-productive.  Oh, and he has moral and ethical problems with it too.   I'm sure ya'll can find someone in the same capacity who is all for it, and i'm sure a lively debate could happen.  (
ginmar was also an interrogator for the US Army in Iraq, who isn't too keen on torture, but I think she's out now.   She mainly rants about feminism now and talks about her cats.  Ya'll may not like her.) 
Anyhow, I ebb and flow with this board.  Sometimes I post here quite frequently, but right now, I doubt any of ya'll could give a rat's ass about whether Ellen Cohen can beat Martha Wong in the state representative race in my district or whether Jim Henley has a snowball's chance in hell against John Culberson.  Those are the political issues I care about right now, and I'll probably continue in that vein until November. 
As for Kinky, why the hell not?  (aside from the lunatic factor.....)
