MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Use of the term "politician" should be insulting enough. The term "politician" can also refer to some well-meaning Democrats. I admit I was being unkind to snakes when I lumped the Republicans in with them. I was thinking in the popular sense of the term "vermin" as it is often widely used to include things like rats, spiders and other "nuisance" beasts that most people have a problem with. Sorry won't do it again. However I take exception to eradicating 90% of the human race. I once calculated that we began to overpopulate the Earth at somewhere around 2 billion. There are now 6 billion of us. That means only 2/3 of us need to go. Can we start with the Republicans?
