Oh, come on, Wikipedia. There is no way this “early photo” is “circa 1964” or “circa 1960-anything.” Is it just because it’s black-and-white? Spalding Gray was, what, twenty-three years old in 1964? Wasn’t that even before his mother died? Does this look like a twenty-three year old man? Didn’t you read Sex and Death to the Age 14? This is probably like 1980, at earliest.
On a semi-related subject, I hope you’re following I Love Wikipedia.
So guess who once cobbled together a better health care plan than the joke that is currently about to die an ignoble death in the Senate because a couple hundred thousand Massholes hopped up on Kurt Schilling and the collected works of House of Pain decided to send some waterboarding enthusiast to warm his buns in Ted Kennedy’s seat in the World’s Greatest Debating Society, instead of the usual faceless weenie limousine liberal who we needed to use as a cardboard-cutout doorstop to prevent a procedural “filibuster” that is not actually a “filibuster” in the strictest sense but is some kind of bureaucratic megatrickery derived from the fact that the Senate was specially constructed by Freemasons to ensure that only a mystical “supermajority” of 60 Senators and not 51 as logic would dictate can ensure the passage of any given piece of legislation?
Wait, what was the question again? I got a little lost in there.
Oh, right — who had a better healthcare proposal than Pelosi or Reid? The answer: Richard Nixon! Read all about it above! It’s superior in almost every way!
Richard Nixon! Richard Nixon is a better liberal than Harry Reid! Choke on that, 21st Century! Yes we can!
