Sorry Sheila but I don’t think any IMPEACHED bastard has the “RIGHT” to call the kettle black. Oh yeah. They still haven’t found Armstrong’s flag on Mars.

Well, I guess he has a right to say anything he wants. In other news, thanks, Alcee! We'll strive to get along without you.

Alcee Hastings - a narcissist who never met a crook he didn’t like.
