[Vision2020] Edit Board is Whined, Dined

[g. crabtree]

And once again the curtain is pulled back and the squalid truth is made 
plain. The argument starts out as being about the noble bird Vs. the 
villainous French chef and within the confines of one short paragraph 
metamorphosis's into what low class vermin NSA/CC are and the whole Daily 
News editorial board is in their nasty little pocket for the price of a 
bottle of discount rack Ripple. Tell me again how it's all about the 
poultry. Once again, while I am willing to take Ms. Prusynski at her word 
(for now) as to her motivations, when it comes to the rest of the howling 
mob one can only shake their head and wonder if there's any opening that 
Moscow's tolerance squad won't attempt to seep through.

P.S. Impartial editorial perspective? Rose, you're killin me. Bill Maher 
gots nothin on you!
