In High School I had a good friend who’s Father was Minority Leader in the Oregon House.

Apparently there was an arrogant lobbyist for the ‘Oil Companies’ who was trying to pass a law to allow self serve (saving the gas stations money, many were owned by ‘Oil Companies.’).

As the vote was going on this lobbyist got a smirk on his face when it looked like the law was going to pass.

Both parties looked up at this despicable man and, due to his arrogance, voted in a bipartisan way to defeat the law.

True story.

When I heard that Oregon has this law, I lost whatever respect I had left for this pathetic tribe of progressive losers. But, after reading your story of “lawmakers” voting a certain way over a smirk, I have nothing but contempt for that pathetic tribe of Progressive losers that is Oregon.

I’ve always said that the heart of every Progressive is a 13 year old fat girl. Their smirk vote proves that.
