Another RAT at work.

What else would one expect when a red state elects a Democrat to statewide office? I guess people really are that dumb...

Nixon’s a Rat...it would appear.He takes his orders from Osama Obama & Pals.

[pallis]

Can he be overridden? What exactly are “federal free speech rights?”
