The notion is just sickeningly stupid. I’m sure the members will go about their business and cast their votes in an extremely democratic way, with no help needed from the imbecile Blackwell.It’s a disgrace in the first place that a handful of loud-mouthed ratbags succeeded to get this far with their agenda for everyone else.

And she considers the fact that people formerly indifferent will now exersise their lawful right to vote "anti-democratic"?Dave, I suggest we enrich the Blogosphere's vocabulary with a brand new term- "Blackwell democracy". It just might catch on just as well as "fisking" ;) “Which is rich, coming from someone who pushed for the boycott of an academic insitution”
