Exactly! This is not a Federal issue. Those idiots in the Senate seem to often forget that there is a 10th Ammendment and that the Constitution severely limits what the Federal gov’t. can do, as compared to what the States can do.

Ah, the truth comes out!

That guy Mr. Frank, the Dem convert to GOP who spoke at the DNC said that about a lot of names mentioned in a later interview with him, (paraphrased) “He just wanted face time.”

Indeed! Miss Hissy Slashy is a dang big cat at 18 pounds. I'm in trouble now!

There’s nothing left but hope. ;-\
