Good to know that Bunning hasn’t forgotten how to throw a brushback pitch.

Do you post much?

Your links are wrong.

Sen. Jim Bunning holds floor: 'Tough s--t'

[tcrlaf]

Bunning isn’t worried about reelection, so the Democrats screaming “YOU HATE UNEMPLOYED PEOPLE!!!” isn’t going to work on him.

In the end, that is the ONLY thing this “Jobs” bill is about, making Republicans vote against “Jobs”.

We have some REAL WHACKOS running the White House and Congress now, folks

[Vigilanteman]

Bunning was an awesome pitcher. He's an even more awesome senator. The fact that the Capon Mitch McConnell doesn't get along with him, makes him all that much better of a senator.

We're going to miss him.

In 2004, Dick Cheney famously told Sen. Patrick Leahy to “f—- yourself”

The only thing out of line about Cheney's quoted remark is that he shouldn't have insulted Leahy's horse.

If memory serves correctly, Bunning pitched a perfect game

Kudos to Sen. Bunning.

Now if he can convince some of his colleagues to get some backbone before he leaves . . . .

[Southside_Chicago_Republican]

I’m aghast! He’s supposed to say, “Tough sh-t, to my esteemed colleague, the Gentleman from ......”

[Syncro]

LOL!

[LouAvul]

Sorry. Dunno what happened. Links: Let's try this

[LouAvul]

And I do post quite a bit. Try not to be so condescending.

[Syncro]

Looks ok to me by the title

“The fact that the Capon Mitch McConnell doesn’t get along with him, makes him all that much better of a senator.”

Yeah, and if McConnell hasn’t been able to get along with a guy like Bunning it really makes you wonder about the guy McConnell is pushing for Bunning’s replacement, Trey Grayson. If McConnell is for Grayson, I think I would have to back either Rand Paul or Bill Johnson for Senate if I were a Kentuckian.

"Try not to be so condescending."

Ya, that was pretty rude of him/her. It's been getting really mean around here as of late.

Father's Day 1964. I remember it well, in black and white.

[panthermom]

That was a very rude comment. BTW, unless you changed it, it worked fine for me :)
