Tomorrow, we will find out if conservatives will expiate their collective sin of staying home in 2012 and thereby allowing the Obama disaster to continue. A takeover of the Senate will not rid us of the curse, but it will help to keep it somewhat under control.

“Gay” activists feel no need to expiate their evil in destroying our civilization. Neither do their enablers, like obama, Hillary, and Samantha World Power!

Good article. The perp should get 5-10 years to expiate his sins, but with Holder’s Dept. of inJustice, he’ll probably get a raise.
