The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-)
Practice makes perfect.....post on....
pity vote? they need to boot his @$$.
What is Nick Saban smoking :)
Ricky ticky Thai stick?
He misses the point of the potentiality of JRB....We have also, if she turns out to be the one, gained the upper hand in the everyoneknowsitscoming SCOTUS fight.
Also, if She is indeed the one, the Pubbies will look downright Justified in going Nuclear immediately.
Michael DeWine,
Man with no spine.
When's your term gonna be over?
No need to phone-
You're goin' home.
We're goin' back and start over.
I'm going with the Great One on this.
That I don't know. Maybe.
A+++ great nursery rhyme for the midget.
Why don't you run against this irresolute jerk?
Yeah - Erroresolute, most certainly.
They sold out their party, us, and their honor (what little remained of it) for the praise of the NYTimes and ABBCNNBCBS...
'Well if I can get half a loaf, I'll take that. But then I'll come back and get the rest of it,'
RMFE.
Great. I absolutely love it.
Ricky + #2 overall Ronnie Brown = Cap hell for Miami.
They'll neve be able to pay a QB, or Left tackle......(at least not good ones...lol)
A+++ robt, i am so irked.
Oh good. We can look forward to more Souters.
Just as Rush describes it.
When they are in their home towns, or running for office, their door is open, and you can reach them on the phone. But once ensconced in the cushy DC office, where do they get their information? It seems, in that fetid swamp, they become infested with irresolution. They get the vapors.
Unfortunately, they change channels on their communication system there. Or as Jonathan Swift mentioned, their ears are controlled by dyed-in-the-wool Government Party flappers, who decide for them what they hear once they get to Washington.
Nope. As I said, JRB is going to be confirmed, and she is a perfectly suited(in fact better than) replacement for Rhenquist, be it as CJ or not, And either of the two remaining, or an as of yet unseen third, will be a marked improvement over O'Connor.
A+++ they make me puke.
52 > 48.
