This is hysterical and ill-informed BS. The Congress, the CONSERVATIVE
Congress had two years to change the census forms these last rounds. The
same Conservative senators that are bitching publicly and loudly now voted
FOR this census form in those rounds, you can look up their voting record on
the Internet--it's easy.

This is more Conservative election year posturing: do one thing say another.
If you want a good read on who's a political hypocrite and liar, then see
who's doing the bitching in Congress. You'll know not to ever trust them
again (not that you should trust politicians of either party in the first
place).

ALL of the things they are bitching about, like your household income,
property and indoor plumbing, have been on the census long form since 1940.
Be counted, if you don't you'll only disenfranchise yourself and your
district and how stupid is that?

This is too stupid to even talk about. I suggest you go back to whining
about black helicopters over Idaho.

Later,
