Sure, a lot of the Anthony Weiner threads are codswallop, but I check them all out. Now, what does this teach America's youth?

I can’t imagine what Free Republic will look like in a year given the amount of Presidential Primary codswallop already clogging up every forum.

Morning, Tiger! Looks like a half hearted attempt at sunshine outside today.

I imagine Joe Biden’s office is thrilled with all the Weiner codswallop dominating the media attention it is keeping the heat off of him after the indictment and guilty plea by one of his major donors yesterday. The federal charges not only involved tax evasion, but illegal campaign contributions -— lots of them and all to Delaware Democrats, including Plugs.

And people wonder why I still read the Delaware newspapers. SNORT!

This economic codswallop of this administration is going to destroy this nation...........................

So, me n' my brother is fishin' off the dock n' he's tellin' me this story, see ..
N' he says, "When I was a kid, I started out small ... bait'n old ladies' hooks for'm"
'N I got a degree, I was so good, n' it made me want to do better n' better"

"So I works my way 'up the line' (tha's a pun kid ... y'll get it later) "....
"Apprentice ..... journeyman .... until now"
I am what I am now ... a master baiter"

That's when I reached down and picked one of our catch up and CODswalloped 'im !

Even prominent Democrats are getting nervous about him. They showed on FF this AM Sen. Durbin (D-IL) saying that the economy is now Obama’s and he will be held to account by the voters. I think that they may have to do a LBJ on him...............

Best to brush up on our British slang........they are the only ones printing the truth in America for us to read. The NYTimes wants to hoodwink us into another four years of theWon....we gotta read the truth somewhere.
