She is a very attractive, and apparently very classy lady.
do you see the rudybots accusing Fred of pedophilia bc she is 25 yrs his junior? pretty hilarious considering the surgically enhanced and aging, SERIAL trophy wife that their candidate has wed.

they are saying the MSM will have a field day with it!! LMAO! OMG if it was coming from someone else, MAYBE just maybe you could give it a moment's credence, but the supporters of the man with the bargeload of baggage are worrying about a 25 year age diff in the hands of the MSM.
Really? The MSM would be concerned about that kind of age difference? I'm sure if a 50-something President was getting serviced by a 21 y/o intern under the desk in the Oral, oops, Oval Office the MSM would be all over that wouldn't they.
they are attempting to draw some moral equivalence between rudy's serial adultery and fred's legitimate, nonadulterous remarriage to a much younger woman, 17 years after the fact of his divorce. and these are "conservatives"? not even the MSM
Can't wait to hear it tonight and then post it on my blog.

The stultifying heat of a beautiful March day in Northeast Florida made me skip work today and spend the morning at the beach. And right after this rum and coke, I'm taking a nap and letting the world shift fo' itself.
Fried Stilton? Something fried covered in Stilton? Anything covered in Stilton? Hmmmmm? Ymmmm!

And there was a cigar involved, too. I thought you couldn't smoke in Federal and State buildings. LOL!
You liked that one. I thought it was a pretty obvious stretch there. I have been so busy today I haven't had time to check back until now.
Ok Feepers I need prayers for a friend's family. Her mom just died of brain cancer. Family is taking it pretty hard. Any prayers you can send their way would be appreciated. The family name is Savage.
