ooh-waah!
I don't know the reasoning....if any...in professional pumping of gas. When I was in Oregon the guy cleaned the windshield, checked the oil and eyeballed the tires. I guess you could say it was a maintenance/safety appraisal.
I know of many people who love full service stations. I guess that when I'm 80, I'll think the same way.
Can someone make him shut up? Please New York! Please!
Chuckie Gladstone...LOL (Although Schumer went to law school, he's never practiced a day in his life.......yet here he is castigating and lecturing an experienced judge.)
The devil is speaking....LOL...
The Constitution DOES NOT SAY THERE IS A RIGHT TO ABORTION.
Sorry for the caps, but I am truly sick of hearing about abortion.
LOL! Just googled Gladstone Gander, and I think you've nailed it! One quibble -- GG's hairline hasn't receded nearly as much as upChuck's.
I just bring my husband with me and he pumps it and checks the tires. It's sort of like full service.
My word...has Schumer even taken a breathe yet?
Thank God.He is done.
I love Cornyn.
Was it soupy that had a trap door?
Either way, we sure could use one for the Schumer/Sphincter/Kennedy types.
Sierra Club is running anti-Alito radio spots in Maine - with the pitch being to call Snowe and Collins and urge them to vote against confirmation.
Cornyn up. Alito is doing a great job in the face shots. So is his wife, who just keeps a very pleasant look on her face and appears quite dignified. Our guys are doing a good job of carrying the buckets.
"Isn't awful how bad the economy has been under Bush???"
Hey there. 4.9% of the nation still isn't working. This is the worst economy since Hoover.
Me too.
I don't think upChuck ever passed the bar, either.
I'm just sitting here reading the thread eating hummus on pita bread. No way I want a dem to ruin it for me.
Me Too:
In fact, I voted for him and plan to do so again.
Like the Longhorns, makes you proud to be a Texan
Nice looking man and has a good presentation.First time I saw him.
