What's with you posting pics of gay guys?
i don't; know what came over me.
I did. ; )
I would trade O'Connor for Owens in a NY minute.
THE DEAL [Mark R. Levin]
As I see it, we've gained 3 judges we would have gained had the rule been changed, lost 2 we would have otherwise gained, and the filibuster lives, only to be triggered if an "extraordinary" candidate -- i.e., an originalist -- who is nominated by the president, approved by the ABA, and is voted out of committee reaches the Senate floor.
Senate Republicans need to immediately step up the pressure on Dingy Harry's ethics committee investigation -- for blithering about a (supposedly) secret FBI file on the Senate Floor.
The only one I expected there, who isn't, is Hagel.
That is terrific.
Oh look, my weasle is up in 2006. I wonder if he'll have a primary fight.
they won't.
my weasel is overdue for his dirtnap.
BOTH of your Senators need a ballot box beating.
That's right. That's the problem with the GOP, there is serious testosterone deficency
yeah, what's with that? he is RINO, how did he get left out? maybe they couldn't find a corresponding Dem to make it even up?
GOP = Gutless Old Pharts?
my SIL lives in the same state as Dubs, and last night she was saying she thinks she could physically take out DeWine, bc he appears to be a Reich-like midget. She was beside herself over this last night also.
Yep, I think Warner has gone totally senile on you...
Dewine is a girly man.
Agreed. We are stuck with RINOvich until he retires. Hopefully he won't run again in 2010.
He's a cancer survivor too, isn't he? That will make it more difficult to replace him.
