    Hope they fired the moran that was supposed to spellcheck that.

    1. Luckily, spelling errors...   14 years ago

      ...are the ultimate something.

      1. Joshua Corning   14 years ago

        Use any excuse to fire an federal employee.

        Any excuse.

  2. Fist of Etiquette   14 years ago

    The U.S. Senate doesn't want too many N's.

    1. William J. LePetomain   14 years ago

      FOE are you out your mind can't you see that that man is a "N"?

      1. Agammamon   14 years ago

        Nnnnn. . . nnnn . . . nnnn "slaps side of head" No!

        (its funny if you imagine Terry Gilliam doing it in Life of Brian)

  3. BakedPenguin   14 years ago

    Be fair, it wasn't the US Departmet of Typography and Grammar.

  4. R C Dean   14 years ago

    I lauhed.

  5. kilroy   14 years ago

    It that a hardcover book? WTF?

  6. Gamboling R Us   14 years ago

    I see Fibertarian sabotage all OVER this one!

  7. HeavyG   14 years ago

    How many typos and misspellings do you think we can find on the reason.com site?

    Can we receive prizes or free subscriptions for each?

    1. Agammamon   14 years ago

      But they're not government.
      Government always does the right thing, that's why it needs to be in charge of everything and doesn't need any oversight.

    2. Joshua Corning   14 years ago

      This:

      Bet they'll reprint 'em!

      Reason.com is online easy to correct and update.

      Which begs the question...why is this thing a hard cover book rather then a pdf?

  8. Freddie B   14 years ago

    rand paul's communications director has a pretty crappy phone camera

  9. Liberal Griefer   14 years ago

    Well, "N" is the first letter in "Nigger", so it's obvious anyone pointing out the spelling error IS RACIST.

    1. Agammamon   14 years ago

      That's racist!

  10. Bean Counter   14 years ago

    So this gets headlines while "Oops, Obamacare is going to cost well over double what we said" doesn't even make the CNN crawl?

  11. Abercrombie Deutschland   13 years ago

    The blog is absolutely fantastic. Lots of great information and inspiration, both of which we all need. Thanks.
