Next stop.....delaware
The Texas lieutenant governor was suggesting it just this morning
A free ride. I thought liberals liked to give away free stuff.
There’s so much irony here you could cut it with a blowtorch. Irony #1: every damn top executive at the Globe summers on Martha’s Vineyard.
Boston Globe = CNN
