Democrats define naive, stupid, and gullible.
I am officially renaming Patrick Leahy Patrick Latrine, ‘cos he be SOOOO full of _______.
Leahy is another libtard intellectual pygmy on the level of Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton,
Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, Hank Johnson and Sheila Jackson Lee.
The enemy within, their purchased scum, and their useful idiots are concentrated in the D party controlling clique. It desperately needs a house- cleaning.
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
