I completely agree. The RATs can't even finish the phrase. Chickenshoots.
That is an incongruity... the photo is of a beautiful animal! lol
Exactly. DiFi and Co. looks forward to hearing themselves talk.
From an ex-Virginian and a current Pennsylvanian, thanks.
I'm missing Senator Cute-As-A-Button? I am office bound today... OH NOOOO!
I just love him. Is it just me, or does our side always sound more intelligent? The debate goes something like this: Dems...decide OUR way; the Pubbies...decide based on the Constitution.
Oh yeah..my BAD..BIG time
Lol you're exactly right.
(bookmarked!) :)
Oh have I got a transcript for you...Michelman on Cavuto lecturing and PITYING the host (I forget his name, the awesome Brit chap) for not "understanding" women... as soon as I get it typed up, it's yours.
He's closed the gap..and will do better as soon as Casey opens his mouth to say anything...and the debates will be decisive..Also..Swan's entry into the race for governor will help Santorum, IMHO..
"Biden only wins one county in the state. Unfortunately it's the largest county"
but there only are 2 others, right? I knew DE was small, but since my state, NC, has 100 counties, it was somewhat of a shock when my daughter told me she moved to a state with only 3.
W.Va. has 2 senators that I would like to see gone....Rockefeller and Byrd.
Amen to that, tol. :-D
Everytime I see Jeff Sessions I think of that movie "My Cousin Vinny" "What's a Youte?" LOL
Yes, we always sound more intelligent. Because we are. And he is absolutely precious.
We can ALWAYS count on Senator Cute-as-a-button, can't we?
He is just going down the checklist of the accomplishments of Alito...and his ABA rating.
IOW..Cute is doing a good job, as usual.
I have friends in Johnstown (Murtha land), and they are very pleased that Mr Swann has announced his intentions.
