It would appear McCain's butt boy checked in for guidance before voting.

IATZ, Darn!
Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my Viking Kitty/ZOT ping list!. . . don't be shy.
Your assignment for this morning is to memorize all the keywords, then recite them backwards while standing on a busy street corner at noon.
Report back.
"THEY DO NOT MIND SHARING THEIR SOCIAL SECURITY WITH FOREIGN WORKERS WHO NEVER PAID INTO IT"
Can you provide the bill and the reference for this?
Thank you.
What are all those keywords?
ZOT!
PWND!
WOW! That is the keyword list from hell.
Thanks for posting. Thank God for my Tennessee Senators, Bill Frist and Lamar Alexander.
Kitties are hungry
I see you've met the Praetorian Guard. Rule-breakers aren't well-treated around here, even if their infractions aren't terrible or stemming from ignorance. Partly, that is because doling out the punishments (silly pictures of violent cats, etc.) is fun.
Presuming you broke the rules out of ignorance, let me clue you in:
1. First, read the FAQ. The rest of this is just to emphasize certain key points:
1. Before posting, exhaustively search to see if anyone has posted it. If it's a big news story, such as the Senate vote to permit the immivasion of the US by Mexico, and it's not brand new, someone has posted it already.
2. Never post something about a topic that has already been covered in a previous post, unless there is something so new in the post that people who disregarded the first post might want to check out your post.
3. Don't publish stuff you've gotten in your e-mail. Most of the people who contribute to FR probably got the same e-mail you've gotten.
4. Use standard rules of polite internet ettiquette. Don't capitalize all your letters, for instance; that's the written equivalent of shouting.
5. Have a thick skin, but learn from negative comments.
6. When you enter a new discussion site, such as Free Republic, it's probably good to hush and observe for a while. Just read posts for a while, until you get to know us. Then start commenting to existing threads. When you get a real good sense of what people are interested in, then start posting.
7. Leave writing vanities to those who have a real good sense of what is going on. I write a substantial number of vanities, maybe even one every few weeks. I waited a long time for my first, after getting a real good sense of what people here wanted to read. I take the large number of views that my vanities tend to get as feedback that they are appreciated. If I get the sense that a topic wasn't well appreciated, I keep it to myself. By the way, I aim for at least 500 views. Any less than that, I keep it to myself. This is not so you can impose yourself on other people; it is so you can meet a demand for news and opinion.
8. I make sure I post to where I think there will be an interested audience. The Bloggers and Vanities area and the General Discussion area get views a lot more slowly than the News area, but a post to the news area usually only gets views for several hours, where as these areas get posts for weeks.
