[Vision2020] Left, Right, or Moderate

[Tom Hansen]

Childish but efficient, Mr. Rumelhart.

Yes.  The text is from the "99" site.

Although I strongly support the "99 Percent" platform, I WILL NOT support them as a third party for the same reason Mr. Falen supports it.  I, along with virtually all the late-night comucs, am having too much fun watching the Tea Party tear up the GOP.

I can hardly keep my excitement in check as I await Donald Trump's GOP debate on 12/27, or as it renamed by Jon Huntsman . . . Donald Trump's Presidential Apprentice Show.

Note to Mr. Falen:  this does not mean that I would deny their right to form a third party.  I simply would not support it.
