Thursday's commination of Obama could come in the form of the contempt vote in the House or the SCOTUS ruling on ObamaCare. Failing those, the people will serve it up in NOvember.

It's always the cover up that gets them.

I only pray that SCOTUS doesn’t decide that it’s We the People who deserve commination via the ObamaCare ruling. You just can’t depend on these Jurists anymore to follow the Constitution.

Nope, you got it backwards. You can’t do the snip. And for the record, I am appalled that they continue to refer to female GENITAL MUTILATION designed to MAKE SEX AS UNCOMFORTABLE AS POSSIBLE FOR THE FEMALE as circumcision. There is no equivalency at all.

Isn’t she up for reelection? I thought she had a tough race ahead of her? Would be nice if she is out of both jobs. A+++

The Obama-Holder combination
Deserves eternal commination
Huge security leaks
Fast and Furious piques
Mr. Issa to invoke condemnation

Yes she is.

I thought she had a tough race ahead of her?

Maybe. I'm not sure. I know Florida redid its lines to get rid of what were some of the worst gerrymanders in the nation so she might have a competitive race.

Monday, Monday. Can't trust that day. Mama Cass never discussed Thursday, beyond mentioning that every other day of the week is fine.
