Can't Spector make them stay on the subject? What does "Evil Bush spying on enemy" have to do with Alito hearing?
No, someone named Casey is running against Santorum.
Lynn Swann is running for Governor against Ed Rendell....
DANG...Dianne Feinstein is just coming right out about abortion...
Mr. FF is just a rebel isn't he? LOL
Stupid RATS are going to try to Bork Alito. They're playing the race card, machine guns, torture, etc. But they forget that this is not 1987. There was no Rush Limbaugh then, there was no Free Republic. Thankfully, that has changed.
Angela Alioto is a lawyer who is the daughter of the former mayor of San Francisco. Her grandfather and his siblings helped establish the fishing industry at Fisherman's Wharf. She has been involved with the Democratic Party in California.
They need to retire Biden.
I think he has a good chance...
I might even send some money to his campaign...it is about time that Pennsylvania get some GREAT politicians...
I am nervous about Santorum, though.
lol! but he's lovable!
The Blue Meanies are like little kids banging on the table "I WANT IT! I WANT IT! GIMME! GIMME! GIMME! I WANT IT NOW!" Tough. Elections matter and we are in charge. You're right. This isn't 1987. The red states want to go their own way on this issue.
Yes, they DO! It's to bad New Castle County, DE is a RAT stronghold, it's extremely pleastant there.
Feinstein and her group are drawing the line in the sand.
Listen to Feinstein. She is just too dumb to understand the case law. Oh, she wants to know how Judge Alito "feels".
*rolling my eyes* The "women's right to choose" phrase is only slightly less disgusting than the "reproductive rights" phrase.
Yep. No email then either. Lies can be countered within MINUTES.
And I dare Mapes to do a story on Alito... ;) LOL!
Don't forget MA...Kerry and Kennedy?
I was thinking more along the lines of.......
You and Mary Matalin, and I tried but Bob is afraid!
I hope your day is going well....
I finished reading the accounts of your adventure last night and today....you should be exhausted!!! LOL
I just sat down in time for Sen. As Cute as a Button!
I'll donate to his campaign. I'm a loyal Virginian, but Mr Swann will get my full support.
Hope you are a FReeper, sir.
