CONGRESS ELECTION TIME! The Bastards are running 8 candidates under the AMP flag. We'll have more on that later, as well as a special bulletin tomorrow in more detail.

Also congratulations to RedEd for being elected to the Member Representative position. All Bastards should feel free to discuss any matters related to eRep, the party, or the meaning of life (i.e. 42) with him.

To the happenings of the week!

There are now four Bastards currently in office.

Our Congressman have been active this week, working to reduce the income tax level from 18% to 15%. This is a great step toward ensuring that those at the "bottom" of the power structure continue to have a voice in Congress.

Baja: Olaf Iverstone
