Tell us when you get to the funny bit then.

Aren't you going to whitter on about barbed wire at the border or forced kilt wearing for everyone?

Well........Unlike some who follow Eck blindly into the abyss I'd rather know things before a vote as find them out afterwards... #-o

But even Eck won't know whats happening tomorrow as he changes policy more often than a House fly changes direction.
