My take on the CNBC story

A lawyer puts lipstick on a pig and convinces congress, judges, juries, and some racers that it is a good thing for the American people to see (maybe not a good thing, but it certainly isn?t harmful). This is what makes a great lawyer, and he is rewarded handsomely to do it. The owners want the pig with lipstick partially exposed to all of legal age, as some of the people who see it will pay a lot of money to see more of it. It is a very profitable business.

Some people (right-wingers and Christians according to the AFF) think the pig with lipstick stinks and want to limit everybody?s exposure to it. These misguided, simple minded people think the stench might actually be harmful to the American people. They get lawyers of their own to convince congress and judges that it is harmful. Again, the lawyers on both sides are paid handsomely to argue the point.

Everyone here is making a lot of money?uh?wait a minute?uh?I guess the simple minded people are not. They must really be stupid. What do you think their motivation is?

Different subject (sort of) - I have seen a decal on several race cars, a silhouette of a shapely female dancing on a pole and the tag line ?I support single moms?. It?s funny?.uh?wait a minute?uh?I just thought about this from the perspective of the single mom?s child. Do you think the child has much of a chance in life?
