My alternative Board motto was, in a nod to Sebby, no offence,

Posting Proof of the Peter Principle!

Thoughts?

But would it violate them more, or less, than rendition?

Also, if the traps were cartoon-style cargo nets, would it be okay to then send them to Syria on John Henry's jet?

Hank says discriminating against the gays is mainstream in Michigan and so there must be a rational basis.

No no. Just that, because it's mainstream in MI, there must be many Dem voters who support discriminating against tehgays, and so the Dems here should shut their traps.

Of course, given the chickenshit elected Dems, there's not much to argue about re Dem voters approval for discriminating against tehgays.
