The Democrats in Connecticut are off to a great start this year.

One State Senator was double billing his campaign for reimbursements.

Two Senators want to legalize marijuana to help the economy. No, I can't figure it out either. Maybe if I were smoking some, I could explain.

The mayor of Hartford got arrested.

The new speaker hired the old speaker for $120,000 a year because the old speaker didn't have a job and was running for governor.

Now we have to add a dead body to the mix. And it's not even a month into the new year yet.

This is the railroad track version of Ted Kennedy. There’s enough stink in this to make you go hmmmmmmm.... Just saying.

"Two Senators want to legalize marijuana to help the economy. No, I can't figure it out either. Maybe if I were smoking some, I could explain."

The point of this proposal is to save money on the pointless law enforcement and imprisonment costs associated with marijuana prosecution. And to help you further, no they don't want to legalize marijuana, they want to make it an offense similar to speeding, an offender would get a $100 ticket.

It's easy to understand once you actually read the facts behind the proposal.

Connecticut is kinda a small state. Is this a crime wave or just the general state of affairs? For a while, I thought this was a Kennedy story.

Akin to “Dying in the Saddle,” but having the saddle die first is a bit unusual.

Police: Conn. lawmaker with woman before she died

I thought this was gonna be some lurid story about lesbians (the lawmaker died?).

Don’t see any problem here. Every passenger jumps out of a car barefooted in single digit temperatures when they get close to home. Happens all the time, usually just before thanking the driver.

Here's a Democrip that really took Bubba's advice to heart, "Better put some ice on that".

Yeah, and worst of all you got Chris Dodd as Senator!

I guess I should have been a Dem.
There seems to be an ‘epidemic’ of young ladies hopping in the back seat of their cars in the middle of the night.

Ever since MJK, when leaving a bar, I would check the back of my pickup to make sure no SYT had jumped in....

I guess this D figured the ‘ole gal in the back seat’ line worked so well once it would work again...
