Pink tennies do not equal panache.
No, but a hat with a feather does.

I dunno. I lived in TX for 10 years and knew many women who were abortion supporters. Suprising women. I used to argue with them, but I never changed their minds. Of course, that was in the early 70s when the Roe v Waders were at their most militant.

JoeB, our VP, takes the cake with panache. Lest we forget his infamous "Stand up, Chuck!"...
...then, who could forget the big f***ing deal comment...
...but even before that remember when he said Obama was a "clean" black man? ....
.....BUT even before that gaffe he said you cannot go to a 7/11 or a DD without an Indian accent...
....butt the icing on the cake is JoeB at the
Villages. Yes, his picture is next to the word pinache in the dictionary.

I hope little Andy Cuomo regrets the panache he showed when attacking conservatives this past week, but I doubt it since he is such a moron.
