Yes, I saw that yesterday, Curtmans was squashed and Kormans may not even make it to the floor of the House. So, I say good deal. Makes me wonder about these people sometimes.
We could debate the issue of The Tour Of Missouri and it's costs and benefits for 'the people' of Missouri, but I will bring my part on this thread to an end on your points that we agree on. And yes, I am a capital "L" liberal and a populist, but don't be scared.
Have a good one!
