Heard someone comment about the supposed "Special Republican Guard"
"Special? Oh yeah they're special alright. Special Olympics."

Maybe my local neighbors are starting to come around?

and untie the cords of the yoke,
to set the oppressed free
and break every yoke?

It's not as pathetic as Rep. Xavier Becerra who said Iraq would get freedom "sooner or later." Tell the toddlers in Iraqi prisons that Democrats wanted them liberated later rather than sooner.

Bah.
