Heavens! This Bonaccorsi fellow has been on an old-style Progressive rant for four days now, and I’ve missed all of it. Drat!

BTW, I do think definitions of five or more drinks at one sitting is pretty preposterous, in the same way a blood alcohol content of 0.08 or below is a silly level for DUI. That after all, is the whole point here, Mr. Bonaccorsi–a point that you have first ignored, then obfuscated, and finally, triumphantly punted. Drawing the line is what adults do, you see, another word for it is lawmaking. If you can’t offer any wisdom on this subject, maybe this political stuff just isn’t your cup of tea.
