       | there's no https, which breaks the link used in the article.

       | Loved it. Since it seems to be slanted to humor. Wouldn't mind
       | seeing some ranking/point system for each, and then a score
       | indicator for Republican's/Democrat, like an election count. Who
       | is winning the Font Wars.
