Not to mention that ol' deer eyes scored 56 on a National Guard exam on
"fundamentals of writing" and "Army Information" (see The Nation, Nov. 9,
p. 547).  *56* against that really tough National Guard competition.  Yes,

to accomodate, the idiocy vacuum shall be filled with a nasty and bitter
brew.

I'll see your twenty and raise you another four. That should give us enough
time to clean up the mess that Reagan/Bush have made of the Supreme Court.
