I haven't heard the rumor, but it certainly carries weight, considering his brain tumor some years back, etc.

I would not be sad to see him go, however, I do feel a certain problem in PA with the stability of the Republican vote.

Knowing how the last election went for President, and knwoing the huge liberal enclaves to the NE of Philly , Philly iself, and the City of Puttsburgh, I don't want to wind up with a liberal, Dim Senator (though it is hard to see how different it could be from Arlene)........

I will go on record, though, as saying I hope he does step down, and let the furball begin, maybe we can fight some good old fashioned conservative politics in PA. Since one really never hears about this, it would be nice (All Rendell, all the time is what gets the sound bites, and in this end of the state, when I poke my nose out, all I get is "all Street, all the time", even though I don't LIVE in Philly, I'm slose enough to be affected by anything that happens )the boundary is about 1/2 mile away from gwmoore's residence).....while that is a real boon for use of the subway,buses etc.,always was, for getting to/from one's place of employment,(anyone who drives, anywhere, in Philly, has got to have a screw loose somewhere, there simply isn't any parking, vandals/theft are huge but even getting to the airport is easy on transit here) although now, the fares are the highest in the Nation, and they still plead poverty.... it's still a little close for comfort :-)

Only 8 Hojo's restaurants left? And yet there are 9 zillion McDonaldses, where a greasy slab of meat thrust between two greasy buns is licentiously considered a "hamburger". I give up.

WOW! That picture of Linsay makes up 100 fold for how slack you've been lately about posting babish pictures, thank you! As for Scarlett, there are so many ghastly pictures of her floating around: what I've seen of her, she's not nearly as dreadful looking as that picture you posted. And I've seen worse ones that make it look like someone took a machete to her chin.

but i cannot get worked up over the immigration issue. just shoot me.

The big problem I have is that terrorists are entering through our borders. There was a Hezbollah terrorist who came through Nogales on his way to Dearborn. MS-13 is another problem.

I support easing legal immigration for non-crooks and those who want to work, but the borders need to be controlled.

Speaking of PA politics, did you hear the rumor about Specter retiring due to health problems?

I hope Rendell can be taken out first. Too bad Toomey didn't win.

i agree with you dan, and i realize it is a problem. i am trying to figure out why i am reacting to the issue the way i am. unlike dubs, i DO Have illegal immigrants in my area, and a substantial number of jihadists, who are here legally or illegally. i think maybe it is the reactionaries on FR on the immigration threads that have so turned me off of the issue that i kind of want to put my fingers in my ears and not listen any more. anyone that makes reference to jorge arbusto, i want to flatten, and any and all kneejerk reactions to anything hispanic have me wanting to pummel people. that is what i think causes me to have the reaction that i do.

MS-13 is another problem

they are all over NoVirginia wielding machetes, including the Falls Church area, but Patton not only has his fingers in his ears, he is wearing a blindfold. he never heard of them.

Plenty of licentiousness to go around in this story. Forced sterilization.......mmmmmm, sounds like Margaret Sanger at her worst.

Ok, I am late -- I got my haircut, ran errands, got my teeth cleaned, delivered the last of my school board election flyers and walked the dogs in between all those things. BUT, my homework is done. ;)

I just found the most outrageous book at the bookstore and cannot put it down. "The Script -- 100% absolutely predictable things men do when they cheat." - I would laugh but I have seen this stuff for the last year with some friends and I cannot put it down..........

SYNOPSIS Is your husband or boyfriend "on script"? · Does he look at other cheating men disapprovingly and reassure you, "I would never do that"? · Has he ever told you, in the heat of an argument, that "you should see a psychiatrist"? · Does he often get irritated and say, "I keep telling you to..." get a job/a gym membership/a degree? If any of the above sounds familiar, be on your guard: Your husband may be following The Script. The Script: The 100% Absolutely Predictable Thing Men Do When They Cheat is a wake-up call to women everywhere. Statistics show that 35% of men cheat on their wives. Authors Elizabeth Landers and Vicky Mainzer contend that every one exhibits the same signs along the way. In fact, they follow the same exact script. After interviewing over 100 people across the county, listening to hundreds of real-life stories of unfaithful husbands, they realized they were hearing the same things over and over again. The script begins with a prelude. You see a friend leave his wife, and your husband promises "I'd never do that to you." Later-even years later-the curtain goes up. He starts to get distant . . . he starts hiding money . . . he gives you an unexpectedly expensive gift. Don't be fooled: the script is underway. Like a screenplay for a movie you never wanted to see, THE SCRIPT spells out which signs to look for, red flags you might not have noticed before, and how to turn the tide of disaster before it's too late.

xs, I found the dirtbag all through this thing, I am ROTFLMAO.........
