Legalize it. Unionize it. Regulate it. Tax it.

This sounds like the flu combined with the clap. Not pleasant, but I'm unimpressed. God can do better.

I think that Christie has his sights on more than another gubernatorial term. I think he's considering a presidential run for 2016. Look! He's tough! Look! He stands by his peeps! Look! He got along with Barack!

I've always been an out-of-the-closet atheist, too, although to clarify I usually mention secular Humanism.

Eli, thanks for doing this. I've been phone banking and canvassing, too. I canvassed Issaquah Salmon Days yesterday, where 99% of the people were at the very least civil. There's always one a$$hole though, and this one told me that I was "a faggot going to hell." I told him, "Y'know, if Jesus were here, he'd probably think you were a dick."

One of the methods we used if we engaged a reject-74 person in conversation was to try and get them to consider abstaining. By *not* voting on the proposition, they honor their beliefs and still "do no harm" to those who would be adversely affected by the referendum being rejected. The idea got at least two Reject 74 voters to think for a moment or two. Whether it sinks in or not, well... we'll see in a month.
