    Grover Norquist may be a crook. Right-winger Jack Abramoff pled guilty in 2006 to three felony counts of defrauding clients, most prominently Native American tribes. He paid Republican congressmen for votes. According to an investigative report by the Senate Indian Affairs Committee, Abramoff paid Grover Norquist's group, Americans for Tax Reform, a cut to be a conduit for funds from Abramoff's clients to finance lobbying campaigns.

    The Obama campaign raised $millions of dollars in campaign donations on the WWW via credit cards. It is illegal to accept campaign donations from foreigners, and that's what the campaign did.

    The press thought "binders of women" was a more important story and issue.

    It is trivia, but it is not fun trivia, and it is political BS.

    It is believed that Shakespeare was 46 around the time that the King James Version of the Bible was written. In Psalms 46, the 46th word from the first word is shake and the 46th word from the last word is spear.

    Jesus didn't like Italians, and the King James Version of the Bible was intentionally mis-translated by Italians to hide that fact. It wasn't "Money Lenders" that he drove out of the Temple, it was "Macaroni Benders."
