| Message | ooc: I'm not here to make friends with you. I'm a political junkie, I'm here for the entertainment factor of the game. I don't see anyone of you making overtures to me, and in fact, you've done everything in your power to limit my ability to have fun in this game. So yeah, I don't care what you think, just as much as you don't care what I think. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker: I'd like to call attention to the LCR and its blatantly anti-capitalist position. That is all. Yield |
