Boy, isn’t THAT a lovely buncH of coconuts?
Wasn’t Obama supposed to come to the Senate floor, the way Jimmy Stewart did in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, and stop this evil bill for the sake of the netroots?
Where was he, fundraising?
Why?
By bringing up her majesty’s record, it brings up a topic where someone else isn’t all that pristine. It doesn’t bother me to point that out, but some folks aren’t going to appreciate it.
You take care...
This bunch still doesn’t get it that Americans want to be protected and they want the Government to have FISA in it’s arsenal of weapons...
When a political ideology blinds person to the reality of life and war against terrorists, it is time to educate that person or vote him or her out of office..
If they are against death, why do they favor abortion?..If they like freedom why do they vote to help repressive tyranny; if they want true freedom of religion, why do they vote to help fanatics who would impose harsh religious laws. If they want to help women, why favor religious zealots who would burden and punish women for the smallest infractions...They should do some deep thinking and get their priorities in order- the way most Americans are doing..
If they are voting this way to keep their names in the news, well we have news about the MSM...Check out the Obituary pages online someday and they may read how the MSM died a slow painful death, like dying dinosaurs...
Is not hillary back in the Senate?
When she did her suspend campaign announcement it was noted that she would take a month off and not return to the Senate until after the July 4th holiday..... I don’t know if that is still the situation should the Senator’s office comment today.
Hell of an election year,you take care too.
Couldn’t agree more. Thank you.
