Romulus? She does kind of look like the Roman Cato the Elder.

In her ongoing fight against both tanning and global warming will she end every speech "The sun must be destroyed."

Melanoma is up by 8 times in the last 40 years. Yep, and the increase exactly correlates with the increased sales of stronger and stronger suntan lotions.

This must men that all the real problems in this country are solved and we can focus on the minutiae. Hooray!

On second thought, maybe we should encourage more reps to focus on this kind of thing, they would do less damage.

Can you imagine living in Connecticut and being dumb enough to vote for this moron?

Only a Democrat moonbat would think a tanning device like say, the sun can be regulated...

Does she think teenage girls will simply stop trying to get a tan...?

I happened to be reading the Wikipedia page about the tanning of hides a couple of hours ago (one of the most disgusting subjects I’ve ever encountered) and when I saw the headline of this article I was puzzled.

That may be the ugliest woman i’ve seen ever. Except I’ve seen Michelle Obama pic here too, and she takes the cake.

Ann Lewis . . . there's a name I haven't heard for some time. Who's house is she haunting?

“Who’s house is she haunting?”

Don’t know what happened to her.

Haven’t heard or seen her lately.

My eyes and ears are grateful.

Is she still alive or is she really haunting someone’s house?

But if I am a transracial person of color trapped in a white body, will the government pay for me to tan under Obamacare medical supervision?
