One of the 8 gabillion reasons I want to move out of IL.
He was awesome..and note that I predicted it BEFORE he spoke..Cornyn also getting some good licks n.
Bring it on and welcome.
We would love to have you.
The 'Rats are still living in the Bork hearings much like their unwashed and unshaven moonbat supporters are still stuck on the Sixties. The playbook that generated a win against the unlikable Bork just won't work here. But, like a stubborn old college coach, they keep running the same plays and keep getting stuffed.
The 'Rats are just old and tired now -- like the Politburo before Gorbachev.
I have DICK Turbin/Durbin to look forward to.....
"SC not a roving commission"......"Not a right to rewrite laws as you see fit." paraphrasing Cornyn....
".....SC got off track with disallowing people to express their faith in public".
I think I'm in love.
Gonna wash that man right out of your hair?
That is an excellent comparison.
Do you know the schedule? I have to work the next two days, I need to set the VCR.
I think I'll find a floor to scrub. Even with my Pepcid Durbin may do me in.
For the last time, he is NOT replacing SDOC's seat!
Dickie Durbin...."over reaching president". barf.
Loud applause for Senator Cornyn.
My consolation about these aged politicians is knowing that they are mortal.
Your predictions are usually spot on :)
Starts tomorrow at 9:30 AM - indefinite after that.
Durbin is one of the reasons I left Illinois.
LOL....at a different time..."Hoover" would have been a "drinking" word also.
Uh...oh....TURBIN DURBIN....
