Its just a coincidence that Hollywood is casting for a “Munsters” movie, and Ted is seen in LA?

Probably needs to refresh at Ashley Madison
after retanking his bank account from his
wife and Goldman Sachs for his ObamaTRADE
vote — which lost most of his supporters.

Yes, he needs to rest up from the 4 months he took off, with pay. Perhaps a qui tam action to recover for the taxpayers the unearned pay he received.

This guy is a welfare junkie. How many Americans can traipse across this nation on other peoples dimes, while AWOL from a Senate ‘oath’. And then be entitled to take off more time when he pretends to suspend his presidential aspirations?
I suspect Heidi is the ‘worker’ in the family.

The senate schedule is a nothing burger. Why does Ted the magnificent have to take time off from that! What vote is he dodging?

Not only that, but I'm sure she wears the pants too.

I think the man does need some time off to come to his senses. He does come across as someone who is overly stressed out.

Don’t you hate it when an employee returns from a six month leave of absence and then goes on vacation?
