with cheap shots galore
I knew he had a drinking problem, but cheap shots? How sad. He could afford the good stuff.
Does anyone pay attention to him anymore?
yep, kinda sums it up succinctly. Perhaps Hypocritical and Left wing would round it out.
Damn. Send his fat butt out near Japan and let one of the whaling ships harpoon his fat ass.
Now I remember! He is under the protection of Greenpeace!
Why hasn't the Kennedy curse happened to him yet?
Yuck!
I lost my appetite for three months.
If it can be shown to be murder it can. No time limit!
I'm truly flubbergasted.
