Nothing intended in the way of humor. We in Colorado are not laughing very much. You who consider youselves to be conservative and a living in states that reflect the attitude thereov. Hang on to your ass. Colorado is as conservative as it gets. We are overun by the fine invasive state of Mehico. Don't get confortable. Mr Bush does not care if we are Mehicos next state. Get on the phone to your representatives and senators. Your only hope is their fear.
ROFL! How true!!!!!!!!!
My God!!! Do your realize how many impoverished people reside south of our border? We are at the will of our own leadership being invaded by a seething mass of impoverished people. They are not here to bring your standard of living up they are here to drag you down to an average of ours and theirs. To hell with this. Call your Reps and Sens and give em the hell that they deserve. If they do not respond they are traitors. If they do they are still in trouble for not responding quick enough. Ask swampstick if I am not right.
