I realize that I am mashing several things together here but the article just piqued my anoyance with society in that the precious comodity of 'Common Sense' combined with a dash of 'no duh!' seems to be lost. Then to top it off, that wanker jack thompson chimed in. Does somebody have a spare

Perrin,
Thanks for the post and yes this is the lounge...
But we really don't do politics here...that's for political sites...
We find that past political preachings lead to bad feeling among members.
Thanks for your understanding..........
