Is this better or worse than causing a traffic jam on the GWB? No, not the GEORGE WASHINGTON BUSH; but perhaps that is why the national press is hyping the scandal so, the accursed GWB letters?

Harry’s scandal must be better because no mention of it in my local Obama Chit-sheet./s

He and Reid should have their heads chopped off on TV. Thanks Libloather.
