Hmmm. Of the 26 states, which are blue and which are red? I have no idea, and wonder if that calls for a unified theory of relativity to rear its head.

Well, I do believe that the states are counted for against Obamacare. The parties aren't counted, so, yeah, 26 out of 50 states are majority.

Yeah, it is par for the course for you to blame either a med used for mental disorders, or the person responsible for treating mental disorders. You really need to deal with your issues there. It is interfering with your ability to think.

I'm not the one with water in my head. Quite obviously you are, as something other than brains is taking up that enormous space between your ears.

I have explained, and the more intelligent ADers grasped it. It is only you shallow thinkers that are unable to comprehend.
