Hillary probably showed him his FBI file, and played a few taped phone conversations for him as well.

It’s painful to watch. When I was in high school our social studies teacher was always running stupid films on the projector. Like “A Visit to Sarah Lee”, or other nonsense. The best part was when we would play it backwards, and watch the “happy consumer” take the bite of pie out of his mouth, and put it back in the pie. This is what is happening to the Republican Party. We are watching the sausage being unmade, from end to beginning. It’s not pretty.

They’re the first party in history to pander to the people who vote against them.

That's the new plan, initiated by Bush in 2002.

“I’m betting Huckabee.”

I was thinking Tancredo.

PS: In this case, “sold” and “sowed” are synonymous.

But even though he is nuts he has the drive energy and ambition to get into the US Senate and rule over your sorry a$$ and mine too.

As a Kansan, I apologize for having helped vote him into the Senate. Never again, though.

Put a fork in him, he’s done.

This is what wanting to be President does to a weak man.

It makes him a pandering fool.

This kind of thinking disqualifies Brownback for the Senate, even.

Brownbacks three religious affiliations are at wiki-pedia. The guy is confused same as I have had to reluctantly conclude about George Bush——>>>>

Religious views
Brownback told Rolling Stone that he had moved from mainline Protestantism to evangelicalism before his 2002 conversion to Catholicism, and that in 1994 he became involved with The Fellowship, a conservative Christian U.S. political organization.

Dear Senator Brownback:

When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

When will modern Italians apologize for throwing Christians to the lions? If they won't apologize, I guess we all know what that means! Italians still approve of slaughtering Christians! Am I right or am I right?

I nominate Brownback for this year's Insufferable Political Idiot award.

Who was the alternative? Elections are almost always a choice between two evils.

The late great Sam Francis once said "we have two political parties, the stupid party and the evil party. And what we fear most is bipartisanship."

Kansas is as middle America as you can get, why do Kansans vote for this idiot. Same reason I voted Mel Martinez here in FL. He was better than the moonbat democrat
