Various thoughts on current events with an emphasis on politics, legal issues, books, movies and whatever is on my mind. Emails can be sent to almostsanejoe@aol.com; please put "blog comments" in the subject line.
The comments to these type of posts are a guilty pleasure, but the one that tries to explain that a tax on having insurance somehow is a "direct" tax in a "let me correct you there ma'am" tone was prime.
