Alex, the answer is, "What Obama won't be seeing on Memorial Day"....

Same category, inveterate political scumbags for four hundred

Ha! the White House is throwing Slick Willy under the bus on the Sestak issue

Sounds to me like they spent yesterday coordinating their stories. Now Bams owes BillyJeff another favor.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

No money, no problem - what a crock!

[tioga]

if I was a toomey supporter I would be brainstorming on possible commercials, this is a minefield for sestak

[hobbes1]

Update..the modified limited hangout is in full effect.

3 mos. ago, Sestak says “Job”

Now the White House, says, unpaid advisory position...

I’m sure somewhere Pat is smiling and his team is plotting.

[tioga]

5"3" inch tall nun without even a ruler....and she foils a purse snatcher! ...dang she is good!

[NeoCaveman]

So is Sestak a liar or delusional or is their felonious activity in the white house?

I think Sestak is totally expendable to them. He served his purpose which was to beat Curt Weldon to cover up Able Danger.

[tioga]

so far PA’s poll numbers show sestak hanging on....time will tell.

[NeoCaveman]

My, his ears are Brobdingnagian

[tioga]

A+ I was thinking this thread would be full of pics of MO’s brobdingnagian butt.....alas, you guys always prove me wrong.

[hobbes1]

Well, according to the White House, Sestak doesn’t know the difference between a ‘Job’ and an unpaid Advisory position.

I wonder what his missus think of that?

This story is going to be verrrry interesting when the Republicans regain a majority (and with it, subpoena power)
in November.

clinton's nose will be more brobdingnagian than pinocchio's when he tries to make this fly: sestak was offered an unpaid advisory board position? LMAO!

[tioga]

again with the GMTA thing. LOL

[tioga]

she falls asleep on the plane, gets left sleeping after landing and wins the jackpot? when she checked the time on her cell, she couldn't just dial 911?

[tioga]

maybe this is the year both mccain and feingold go down.....Ron Johnson, a Tea Party guy, is self funding his own run for the senate.......when asked how much of his own money he would spend, he said all of it!

[Laura Earl]

Yep, that would be some fun complaining...this is scared @#$%less for our country!
