The LATimes did not mention whether people who report tweets will get vouchers redeemable by Secret Service approved-hookers. Or maybe that only works for tips reported from Colombia. <\/p>\n

Posting this item on Facebook sparked the following speculative thread on the voucher program:<\/p>\n

LR – Hookers with the efficiency of the Post Office and the compassion of the KGB?<\/p>\n

Jim Bovard – If they had postal efficiency, they might intentionally delay delivery for a very long time.<\/p>\n

LR – But the long lines.<\/p>\n

Jim Bovard – Even worse – the promise of ‘universal service.’<\/p>\n

LR – Wouldn’t want my male delivered to the wrong address. There is no end to this.<\/p>\n

Jim Bovard – Even worse, having some angry clerk trying to cancel your stamp<\/p>\n

LR – Not as bad as returning for lack of enough postage.<\/p>\n

Jim Bovard – Yep – that’s hell on Accounts Receivable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
