#4 Stupidity is not a crime, but it does cause suffering. Usually, in modern western societies, it's the other people who suffer. So each case like the current should be applauded.

If ObamaCare, she is probably a goner. Might as well bury her now.

#13 and the link didn't show.

I took a look and discovered you'd forgotten to give the link a bit of text to attach to, Whiskey Mike. So I added it. Next time type your text, highlight it, then click on the link icon and paste the URL into the box that pops up. You got the last steps right, and you did paste over the placeholding http://, so the learning curve isn't steep. ;-)
