There is NO chance the MSM will cover Hillary in any way that may lead to serious consequences or political repurcussions.

None.

Yo go Katie!

[snugs]

Does your wife know LOL or care :o)

[SkyPilot]

Don't be disrespecting my Obama!

Now you go girl!

Talk about a cookie cutter day on the Sunday shows...

Biden and Graham? Leahy and Specter? Schumer? What is this, Groundhog Day??

[Arrowhead1952]

Good morning / after noon snugs. You are probably correct. All we will hear this morning is Larry Craig all the time. I’d bet if he had a (D) behind his name, there would not be a mention of this incident and he would be reelected next term.

[snugs]

IMHO unless the family is known to have criminal/illegal tendencies and connections to deport them all for the actions of one member seems over the top.

However like all things reported maybe it is not a draconian as it looks, also are they talking about people legally in their country, people who have taken Swiss nationality or just illegals?

[Arrowhead1952]

YUCK. I was hungry earlier. I may skip breakfast now.

[snugs]

The perky one LOL

[jmyrlefuller]

I highly suspect that the Texas straw poll will be ignored. Of course, since one of their established Rudy/Romney/Huckabee trifecta (yes, McCain’s out of it, so the MSM’s going to drop him ASAP if they haven’t already).

[SkyPilot]

"We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender!"

Sen Biden

[rodguy911]

I would love to see her and Angela go at it.

[rodguy911]

Ahhh she’ll get over it...

[jmyrlefuller]

one none of the trifecta performed particularly well.

[SkyPilot]

Hi Snugs! Good afternoon to you. I wish I was in the UK.

Now, onto the topic of the day, our wonderful gay Senator Craig.

[Chuck54]

Morning/afternoon Snugs.
Here’s the link to the Swiss story. The plan has the usual detractors of course, but the kicker was, “The party claims foreigners - who make up about 20 percent of the population - are four times more likely to commit crimes than Swiss nationals.”

I’m sure it won’t fly. Too many “let’s all just get along, sit around in circles, and sing kumbaya types” over there.
Just mho of course.

Why she’s a modern day Ernie Pyle! /s

[SkyPilot]

Here is the other topic of today.

Congress wants to give the American people free mortgages!

Isn't that a great idea!

[snugs]

Of course the rhetoric that the Republicans run on the party of morals does not hold water, it should not matter what party you are if you have committed a moral indiscretion that brings your judgment into question then you are not fit to hold public office IMHO.

A quiet non scandalous divorce whilst I am not happy with I can accept happens in 2007 but some of the things that some politicians get up to IMHO certainly brings their judgment which you need to hold public office into question. Even if they are democrats who do not push a family values or moral values platform they should go as they are showing tendencies that would indicate under pressure they might make decisions that are not rationally thought out.

[SkyPilot]

Oh, also, Nifong spent one night in jail (the poor dear).

She didn't, and won't.
