		<description>Erm, not that anyone here has said anything to even hint at this, but now that the Republican free lunch is limited to $20 will Macdonalds stop being disgusting tasteless crap served on sweetened rolls?

Or will Lobyists start learning how to cook? I mean, just now the gourmet chef&#039;s lobby becomes the most powerful one in congress.</description>

		<description>I figured you would make a racist comment here as well,
Comment by RightPunch 

&lt;b&gt;It was one of your losers that suggest the color of the waiter made a difference to the senator. That&#039;s type A projection by the way.&lt;/b&gt;

but I guess youâ€™re losing your racist edge with so much opportunity to promote hate speech, bigotry and intolerance that this site permits you to exercise.

&lt;b&gt;I don&#039;t promote anything. Have I asked you to agree with me? And by the way, just because you are a tolerant of anything, anything goes, nobody&#039;s at fault, everything&#039;s relative kind of man doesn&#039;t mean that I&#039;m racist, bigoted, intolerant or hateful because I find evil with what you hold to be good. But I know that&#039;s what it means to you so there&#039;s no point arguing. &lt;/b&gt;</description>

		<description>Homosexuality is not contagious, I-RIGHT-Iâ€¦

Anyway, do you ask this question in every restaurant before sitting down to eat? 

Comment by Gregor Samsa 

Yes, I think it is contagious. I think you have to be pretty young and fucked up in the head by a wimpy father and overbearing mother to get it though. At least that what the homosexuals themselves say when speaking of how they were &quot;turned out&quot; by older homo deviants on the prowl for fresh meat. I really do hate homosexuality. Everything about it just makes me sick.

 And yes, I won&#039;t eat in a restaurant that has a policy of not checking their employees for AIDS and Type C Hep and other nasty shit that crawls around on an through the bodies of lost souls. But you feel free to eat where it pleases you. No skin off my nose.</description>

		<description>Gregor,

I think I-Right-I believes it is contageous.  Anyone who believes this is just like people who believe you can catch racial traits.  They&#039;re so disjointed and disconnected from the world, that there&#039;s probably little chance of actually reaching them.  I really feel deeply sorry for how disturbed and hateful this poor fellow is.</description>

		<description>Reminds me of the old joke:
&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;I was wondering if you&#039;d sleep with me for a million dollars?&quot; 
&quot;A million dollars!&quot; She thinks for a moment and answers, &quot;Yes, I would sleep with you for a million dollars.&quot; 
&quot;How about five bucks?&quot; 
&quot;Five bucks! What kind of woman do you think I am?&quot; 
&quot;We&#039;ve already determined that. Now we are just haggling over money.&quot; &lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;&quot;Who cares as long as they are not homosexual? I-RIGHT-I&quot;&lt;/em&gt;

Afraid someone is gonna stick a finger in your pudding?  Hehe, whatever floats your boat cowboy.  I figured you would make a racist comment here as well, but I guess you&#039;re losing your racist edge with so much opportunity to promote hate speech, bigotry and intolerance that this site permits you to exercise.</description>

		<description>How about the whole lobby system be changed all together. You want to &quot;lobby&quot; congress? Ok you go to Congress&#039;s website and post a public document about 1) What you want to see changed. 2) Why it is good for America. 3) Why it must be done at the federal level instead of at state level.

Pay the $1000 fee for processing the document into whatever form the Congress men and women want it delivered to them in and other handling fees like you pay when submiting a patent with the U.S. patent office. IF a congressman/woman takes interest then they can call hearings where the lobbist(s) can present their case on CSPAN in the house or senate for anyone who cares to know can see.

No personal meetings ...no special influence. No pay to play. And law makers can spend their time doing actual work where we can all see them instead of spending their days in hottubs and on the golf coarse. If it is too wrong to ask for in public then you shouldnt be asking for it at all.

Any secretive non official contact between law makers and lobbyists would be illegal and a conflict of interest.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;I think weâ€™re all missing the point hereâ€¦ the real question is, if Lott is forced to eat at Mickey Dâ€™s, will he be able to sit in a segregated â€œwhites onlyâ€ section? or will he use the drive-thru to avoid that issue altogether? &lt;/em&gt;
