Congress is where you go to get FILTHY RICH and really not have to work for it, it's kind of like a life time free pass to Disney World, all you have to do is show up; vote to spend more of taxpayers money, then retire to a global corporations board of directors.

OH’s Boehner will do anything to get IL’s Obama to say something nice about him.

Scalia is not endorsing suppression of speech here; he is saying that suppression of free speech works to the advantage of socialists.

You’re correct. Which is why Scalia opposes the finance limits, because he knows that they favour the incumbents. Imagine a war where you have to attack an entrenched enemy and being told that you have to limit yourself to the same number of troops as the enemy. When you are attacking an established opponent you need even more resources to overcome the natural advantages of incumbency.

True enough. And, that makes it all the more remarkable that JFKerry was a financially poor senator until he married up.

My bad.

I shouldn't try to comprehend/analyze things at 2:00 AM in the morning. :)

I figured something like that caused you to misinterpret. We all do it at times.

“You know what?”

“You’re all right.”

“I love you.”

“You’re my best friend.”

Isn’t it true that when his first wife threw him out for cheating, he actually lived in his car for awhile? Wouldn’t be hard for a Senator, since they have a gym, showers, etc.

I heard about the car... or living in his office. I didn’t hear why the first wife tossed him, though. Haha, JF’nK. As loyal personally as he is politically.
