R.I.P. Mark "who will protect us from our protectors?" Scott)

"Excelsior my Friend!", "A ='s A", "Check your Premise", "The evil of 2 lessers".

Dang I miss him, Imagine what he'd be saying about Oboingo now if he was still with us....

Dingell?

He is the King of Wishful Thinking......

* He lost his Chairmanship
* He is in the Minority.
* And the Doc' Steele run cost the State DNC 4 to 6 seats in the State House and many local seats "Down-River" tryinig to save his seat...

I guess Dingle has never been the same since Norwood left him.

Did you read the article folks?

“I happen to like Boehner; he’s a good guy,” Dingell said. “So Boehner goes out with his leadership team [and] he creates these tea baggers who come running in. These tea baggers come in and they decide they’re going to run the place."

Boy does he have contempt for us "teabaggers"

The Feeling is Mutual John...

I don’t believe the democrats picked up a single seat above the county level in Michigan last year. The GOP wave here was spectacular.

The democrats and unions blew nearly $8 million losing my district alone.

CC...

Yes a big swing and with thatt said, I have been saying for Eon's we are ground zero for beating Obiongo.

I stand by it, nevermind PA, or OH, or WI even. Nothing against the States or the people, they are all good to visit, great food etc, but I think we are THE SWING STATE that gives Oboingo "The Loss"...

The GOP is busy making the usual Michigan mistake by ignoring us. Cain is the only one who spent any time campaigning here.

Good grief...these Democrat fossils are misty-eyed recalling the good ol’ days of Robert Michel, perennial GOP minority leader, who was thrilled to be invited to an occasional drink with Tip O’Neal. Why don’t these rancid left-overs quit and cash in on their exorbitant pensions?

dingell...America deplores you.

I deplore the union thugs that keep re-electing him. We should breaking their backs while telling them our reasons for doing so. If we want to restore America we need to make it very painful to be a socialist.

Quite simply, we can solve two problems at once ... Cut spending and starve the people that depend on tax dollars the most. I do mean this literally, but I firmly believe the socialist will change their ways before dying.

IMHO, old John Dingleberry is the poster boy for lying, corrupt, under-the-table payoff-seekers. And he is one of the worst to ever to slither up the Capitol steps! For instance: He was the one who flacked for the break-up of A.T.&T. “so that our phone bills would be much smaller!” At that point, mine started to escalate and never has stopped!

The quick fix for the problem? Term limits.

Thanks SMGFan.

The Rinos and the Dems despise the Tea Party. We wrecked socialism’s “progress.” The feeling is mutual. We are tired of the corrupt theives and liars who disrespect the constitution of the US.

It should be called: "The Congressional Airline Captain Parity Act"

What the He!!, they finally upped it to 65, but "ATP's" (The Airline Pilot's "rating" is called the "ATP") are age limited, they helped make those rules so why should they live by them too!
