Empires

"Empire had the better ending. I mean, Luke gets his hand cut off, finds out Vader's his father, Han gets frozen and taken away by Boba Fett. It ends on such a down note. I mean, that's what life is, a series of down endings. All Jedi had was a bunch of Muppets."
- DANTE (Brian O'Halloran) in Clerks (1994)

Economy

It's a travesty what has happened in Washington today. Civil Discourse does not mean caving in to the extreme right. The irony is that the Republicans in the Senate will Filibuster this deal. Tea Baggers will never be happy until all entitlements programs are eliminated. They want to destroy the middle class!
