Laura Ingraham had dubbed him "Sponge Ted Square Liver"

It's 2:48 in the afternoon where I am and I have been laughing almost nonstop since Noon when I found out the GI captured in Iraq was a freakin hoax.

Frist ain't running for anything but the hills of Tennessee

I'm not his biggest fan but he and Bush have played their cards wisely, built the majority and reelected the President. I have a feeling they will be ready for the wars of this session and that's because they haven't acted like the Dems...impatient emotional nut-cases.

I have only one so far, but she is clearly the most adorable and intelligent little girl imaginable. Sorry, needed to go off topic for a mental health moment.

They sure most be worried because they are doing a lot of pre-emptive strikes, aren't they?

BTW, since we're on this subject, can somebody tell me exactly at what point in time Social Security becamse "solvent" and "not a crisis?"

Why is he quoting from the Bible? Does he think it's a new fad?

Frist is going to go nuclear?

We'll have to see...he'll be arriving soon and maybe we can tell from his tone and words if he's serious. I'll probably call his office tomorrow morning when the staff and day are fresh.

Bill Nelson refers to the "Good Book" and refers to certain books in the Bible. Only dems allowed to do that, of course.

Well, we won't see another candidate like W in our lifetime. Like your mother, I have my box of "Bush stuff" that I am saving for the grandkids.

I suppose my enthusiasm will depend on who shows up for running and how much I loathe the opposing side.

I sure do like working on my roses, though...

Oh, gack! Nelson dragging out "widows and orphans!"

AP: The Senate has decided not to filibuster Gonzales.

I haven't watched five minutes of this and based on the comments here, it's a good thing. They'd have ruined a perfectly nice day.
