Karsten, please do that.  I've no wish to speak to you either.
Please, please, please filter me.

You're an insufferable pain in the ass.

 Judge Penfield Jackson ruled during the Clinton administration, case

 Not that I approve of having to pay to vote (much less pay more to
 send in an official ballot than spammers pay to spew their shit via
 the postal service; reason enough alone that the USPS should be
 destroyed and reformed from scratch, bulk mailers charged extra, not
 less).

Pluses of the right:
-lower my taxes, stay out of my head

Minuses of the right:
-harder to score dope because the dealer's connection is nervous

Pluses of the left:

 to get prosecuted
-don't have to hear about how shitty life is from hollywood for 4 years

Minuses of the left:
-tend to enourage lots of hey! you're gay! type-of moments (you 
remember the nineties)
-raise my taxes
-when they sell out and go corporate, they do it so poorly

Probably because you're not supposed to sell out, and they're doing it
only to look multipartisan when they really shouldn't be.

 Usually, people have a rule for X-Spam-Status headers, which
 spamassassin uses.  And using cloudmark, razor or pyzor directly isn't
 usually recommended, spamassassin happens to be a frontend to all
 three and uses the CM/Razor/Pyzor scores to add spam points.
