Should they not just print the minimum information needed for the U.S. Postal Service to get it to your mailbox?

They are hypocrites of the same order as their presidential candidates. It makes no difference that a candidate is unfaithful to his wives, has been sanctioned and fined by his colleagues for conflict of interest money grubbing, or that he made millions as a hated lobbyist of his ex-associates.

Jan. 2, 2012, is the day that will live in infamy, a day I was responsible for "curtailing the exchange of ideas, philosophies," according to Mr. Smith. By the end of Mr. Smith's letter, if I'm reading this right, the limit can be directly linked to the bad government that is plaguing us all.
