Yours sounds nice-I like raisons, but not in bread and sugar not at all.

Funny you should say that-the Bullmastiff’s owner said when he had the dog neutered a few months ago, he thought how nice it would be if he could have the puppy mill owners done the same, but with no anesthesia...

My daughter’s Pit Bull Terrier was a puppy mill rescue, too-she has had him for nearly 7 years now, and he still thinks he is a lap dog.

Please tell me I did not just see on my homepage newsfeed that Silly Jackson Lee said in the senate that our “democracy” had made the constitution work for “400 years”. Was that before or after we put a man on Mars? She needs remedial history lessons or a gag...

I would love to think you are right, but fear that once implemented we are stuck with an ever decreasing amount of coverage for an ever increasing cost.

But even those who get their premiums completely paid for (by us) are not going to have the cash to pay for office visits, tests, etc that are not covered. They are in for a rude awakening when they realize it isn't as easy as walking into the dr and getting all their health needs paid for.

I won’t claim to be a good bread baker without my bread maker, but with it I’m pretty good! And I like that I’m putting all the ingredients in - and no additional things to prolong shelf life.

Yes, she did say that. Harvard educated, isn’t she?

That woman is an idiot-how can anyone who knows how to read, use a computer, or even just watch TV not want such an embarrassment voted out? Who are her constituents-Warren Jeffs’ cult members? And if I were in charge of Harvard, I’d revoke her degree(s)...

One of the reasons I committed to a natural diet when the cub was a child was that I was reasonably sure that stuff added to food to prolong shelf life would not necessarily prolong mine...

I don’t thin having idiots in office is new. But having no handlers or simply not caring how they come across is more new.

It’s like the Obamacare lies about how well the website is working or similar shameless “Baghdad Bob” statements. They know the media is in their pocket and the base doesn’t care about anything but power. Or freebies.

She doesn’t care that she’s an idiot and neither does anyone else cause she’s in a gerrymandered “black” district and they will, sadly elect anything with dark skin. And she will vote for the lefty agenda.

They don’t even try to mask it anymore.

Dave I know you are younger than me so I don’t know how early you began to be interested in politics...were you interested enough to remember the Clinton years? They, similarly to the current idiots, were know for having no adults in the WH. They messed up protocol, mishandled things, had the IRS attacking republicans.... So similar to current mishandling and outright lying
