Interesting article here in the WaPo about privatizing Virginia liquor stores – although the Washington Bob McDonnell’s Thesis should accept that they lost the election, and stop being childish by using unflattering pictures of the Governor* – but the really interesting bit was possibly the comments section of the Fark entry where I saw it first. Ever hear that old rule-of-thumb that the more you care about a particular topic, the more conservative you are about it? Yeah, apparently Fark readers care a hell of a lot about distilled liquor.
No, I’m not judging. I am, in fact, somewhat heartened. Now if we can just get them caring about entitlement spending with the same intensity…
