5. Sorry if it wasn't clear but I was being sarcastic.

I was recently reminded of Harry Truman's comment about socialism: "Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people." and thought I would use that. As for the vapors, yes, you got me... I was thinking back to Lindsey Graham's comments during the GWB war on some terrorists about the terrorists were going to "kill us all" and imagined him putting his hand to his head saying "Oh dear, I have the vapors." But I screwed that up. Again sorry it wasn't clear about being sarcasm.
