JFKs father was a snuggler. Rum, as I recall.

Not as long as Tuesday comes before Wednesday. ;-)

I don’t know, thats from the 80’s. Given the first two pics, I’d say we got the problem fixed in time ....lol

One of our former Governors, the late Lee S. Dreyfus, once described Madison as “30 square miles surrounded by reality”.

They should take the Marxixt Maggot in the White House directly to the nearest Assize, try him summarily for Treason, and put him in the stocks. There's one handy directly in front of the Old Courthouse in Leesburg, VA.

America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

Excellent!

[Hegewisch Dupa]

Amen that. I honor that sentiment with this Danica pic:

[SoothingDave]

I see your Danica and raise you a Danica.

I have no idea what all is going on there; but color me intrigued

It is 58 and sprinkling off and on-a perfect Fall day...

The emperor’s precious “legacy”
Has him looking like a clown
Perhaps a British-type assize
Would bring this dumb law down

Somewhat faster than failure,
Which will leave people broke
From paying penalties or premiums
For a lot of mirrors and smoke

The site gives your information
To the IRS-who’ll send you a bill
For going to their broken website,
Or because you were standing still...

[Texan5]

And I don’t think the first grifter should be surprised that people don’t buy her assertions that she eats a healthy diet-not with an assize like hers. A healthy diet for a hippopotamus, maybe...

[Texan5]

I turned on the news in time to see Ted Cruz ripping the DC establishment a new one over the proposed senate compromise-he may not win this round, but the pot has still begun to boil...

[SoothingDave]

I’m guessing it’s Halloween.

Nicely done!

[Texan5]

Thank you!
