    "Congressional leaders in both parties are engaged in high-level, confidential talks about exempting lawmakers and Capitol Hill aides from the insurance exchanges they are mandated to join as part of President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul, sources in both parties said.".

    Wasn't all that long ago my wife was against my having guns in the house. Just last night, however, she asked... "would you teach me how to handle a gun and shoot"?

    I went "WTF"? She said she's now worried... about class warfare, government oppression, etc.
