Now where did I put the "Place Bets Now" graphic?

I will not participate in any betting unless the pot reaches at least a gazillion dollars!

So far, Frist is going through the history of the RAT filibuster.

Watch this, everytime Frist says the constitutional option is still open...Reid loses his mind.

A gunfight, and Frist had his nail file taken away by McShame and company.

I say we should just move on. He says that a lot lately, could it be because it's one of the special interest groups he lines his Depends ($)with?

Lincoln...

"When it's not possible to do your best, it's best to do the possible."

Give 'em hell Frist.

Dingy Harry wants to get the nukular option off the table. Won't happen!
