Think he’s just cross-eyed.... LOL
What does that mean?
The Pope is on the cover of Rolling Stone right now.
Oh. I guess Hobbes thinks that’s a good thing.
We had a new suburban in PA and went out after a big snowstorm too - it was fun
He does have those madman eyes, but his whole racial look reminds me of that televangelist.
And in the foot-in-mouth department, did you see this blurb about Wendy trophy wife Davis?
“Weeks earlier than that Davis sought to pitch her plan for Texas education. She just couldn’t offer any figures for how much it’d cost. Don’t fret! She declared her plan could take on ideas “as a ship takes on water.”
I nearly choked on my tuna salad...
A couple of days ago, I came across the pictures we took during that little excursion-everything looks so different that it could be another place entirely.
Oh hell-that should be “his whole facial look”-if he has any “racial’ look, it is Lilywhite/Anglo...
Surname is def Eastern European. He has to have had some sort of breakdown.
The woman is a dimwit!
what a nutball.
I would argue, that, he is reaching out to, those that need reaching?
Maybe there is a point to the contrary?
I have yet to hear one...in that context.
Much like the President is supposed to be the President of all Americans, the Pope, is supposed to be the minister of all those that need saving...?
Did i miss a CCD class?
ROTFLMAO like a ship takes on water? OMGosh, she really is that stupid.
That was LOL funny.
Hopefully the voters will pump her out like bilge.
Figgrd you caught that in the news...lol....
And it’s not a bad thing...
I bought a couple of kindle books of things the Pope has written...one was just his weekly addresses...but so far nothing much stands out. I really think the libs have latched on to him and twist what he says to suit their own misguided pursuits. He is pretty bland, even my Bishop has more going on than Pope Francis. Fr Brian says he is “pastorial” while Pope Benedict was an intellect. Two very different men, and Pope Francis has no conception of how what he says is misconstrued here in this country.
someone needs to break it to Wendy that her campaign is taking on water and that that is NOT a good thing. LMAO
19-0. Let the winning streak continue. Did you find some Syracuse ice cream for the big game?
Davis also just came out in favor of a new gun law —
That is already the law —
That she voted for two years ago.
was just reading that. she is a nightmare. can Texans be serious about voting her governor?
