Feinstein is up now
BBL .. I need to go take out the trash cans
Some of them are quite good also.
Oh no! It's Franken...I mean Feinstein.
Mr.FF, for the most part, will dare to pump his own gas here in NJ. It's fun to see the looks on the attendants' faces when he does.
Ahhhhh....but there is a reason. Biden is the only DemocRAT so far NOT to mention the constitutionality of wiretapping private citizens. Not the wiretapping of non-citizens who are suspected terrorists and felons.
It seems to be one of the Dem talking points today.
Good.Fast Eddie and all our casino's and tax breaks:)
LOL I was just going to ping you - with a muzzle for DiFi
oh god, diane frankenstein
OH NO, here comes the lonely toad argument.
That makes sense. I have been to Delaware, folks seemed nice enough.
Yes, in MANY ways!
DiFi talking about Rybar right now....
When are they going to get to the pubic hair on the coke can??!!
They can't stand after yrs of trying to change the face of America through many times judges' rulings....W is stopping that as best he can. W is turning America back to her roots...that's what they're trying to stop. That's what's scaring the hell out of all of those socialist/commie creeps, IMHO.
We have enlightened voters in most of Texas. You have to exclude Austin and a lot of the Valley.
Yes, people in Delaware are VERY nice. I love it there.
Diane's 2 preoccupations...abortion and guns. Didn't SHE have a gun herself?
A lot of Dem constituencies in New Castle County, and it's really dense.
DiFi is making me feel ill. She is bad, bad, bad.
Here comes abortion.
I say, give it time... today is for preliminary bloviating. I'm waiting for their other shoe to drop.
