Wow, I did not know that. I've been going under the mistaken assumption that NJ was the only state for that. Thanks!
Nope .. a Conservative Republican ... that is gonna kick Fast Eddie's butt
Woo Hoo!
+ the right to do anything you want in the privacy of your bedroom including ___________ (you fill in the blank). The courts will continue to build on this "new found" constitutional right until a person can marry his pet, engage in bestiality, etc., etc., etc.
lol~ blue states DO!
>But do your feet show it?
Yes, they are long, fellows, and they stink like the dickens!!
(Sorry, couldn't resist!)
He is running against Santorum.
"I'm just a poet who don't know it...But do your feet show it?"
Well, this place is just overwhelmed with poets, don't ya know. Good one to add.
I guess every state has its quirks. That's what makes Federalism so cool. PA is the only state in the Union where *only* the State Police are used to use radar/laser. We don't like our local and county cops running speed traps, especially when they could be patrolling our neighborhoods (and I'm not a cop-hater -- several of my friends are local cops).
Biden only wins one county in the state. Unfortunately it's the largest county
OK I am lost.He is running for Governor.If he is he has my vote.
The day is fast approaching that most all self-serve stations will use the vending machine method. Some stations in the Atlanta area are already doing that.
If Swann can steal the Chester vote (85% minority) perhaps he can overcome any Philly deficit.
Bring on the Constitutional Option! Frist better have the votes lines up . . . .
I mean steal as in "snatch from the Dems", not as in "commit fraud like the Dems" :^)
YEP!
That 's what I was thinking of and haven't heard it since I was a very small child.
I'm most thankful with my Senate representation: John Cornyn and Kay B. Hutchison.... I/we've been blessed in the Lone Star State.
