This was published today, Saturday. Is it still true?

Does anyone know a Republican Senator that can test the veracity of this article?

I bet the FReepers can come up with a question or two to ask and see...

It’d be easier to get a hold of Osama bin Laden than Emanuel this weekend.

Like CNN kissing Saddam Hussein's backside to maintain "access".

Who gives a crap if he returns calls quickly? Will his Messi-UH govern according to the Constitution? Probably not.

Conservatives and RINOs continued to be bambozzled by Obamalama while he readies the Civilian Security Corps and plans the concentration camps.

Congressisonal Republicans are a bunch of suckers who never seem to learn. I don't know how we manage to elect such gullible morons time and time again.

If this story is true, why do Republicans kiss the a**es of Democratic rabid-dog hacks, all in the interest of bipartisanship, when it has been demonstrated to them time-and-time-again that they will be stabbed in the back at the first opportunity? How many times did we see this happen to President Bush over the last eight years?

I never had sex with, er, talked to the Illinois Governor. Hell, I don't even know him.

Hey Zer0, How are you hanging in there with the big boys? How's your smoking and facial tics coming along? Enjoy your ride. The fun is just beginning.

Spineless, limp-wristed rebublicans have been sucking up to leftists for years, yet they still wonder why they lose elections! Incredible. Watch Chambliss rejoin the RINO club as soon as possible in spite of a near death political experience brought on by his betrayal of conservatives.

We need a conservative party. These republicans are embarrasing! “WELL WILL YOU LOOK AT THIS, THEY LIKE US THEY REALLY LIKE US” It is one thing to work together and another to give away the candy store to delinquent children. The damage that will be done to this country in the next 4 years will be enormous, and recovery if any will be generations away. I believe before anyone is allowed to vote they need to pass a written test. This is why we are sitting in a toilet waiting for the big flush. UNEDUCATED MORONS SOME OF WHO DON’T EVEN KNOW WHO PEOLSI OR REID IS AND IT’S THIER PARTY

Obama’s people will reach out to Republicans as long as the Repubs go along with their marxist agenda.

While appearing to be in complete opposition to one another,
they both march in the same direction.”

0bama's security corps is nothing but his version of Hitler's SA and SS. If formed, they must be shot on sight.

This is the reason why our New Ruler will push very severe gun control legislation, if not just use Imperial Decrees. We must not end up like the disarmed Germans, watching as the Nazi goons took over every aspect of daily life.

Barry’s got the look of a man who doesn’t know whether to defecate or go blind.

Excellent.

Hopefully, we will not have to wait over 10 years before Zero wears jumpsuit orange.
