Why are FIRED employees still making decisions that affect the health and well being of the company (country)?

They should be shown the door with a swift boot to help them along the way.

Never, in the history of this country have so many been so wrong about so much. In fact, have the liberals ever been right about anything? How many "Starts", "DADT", budget fiascos and spending insanities can we possibly endure and still survive??

By an amazing coincidence, the 71-26 vote in the Senate is almost exactly the same percentage as the Parliament’s vote in support of Chamberlain’s Munich Agreement (369-150).

Really, what’s the point though? So I call in and blow this poor lady’s eardrums out. What does he care? She’s just some scum he hired to keep me away from him as far as he’s concerned.

“Some poor gal in Isackson’s office might move to Russia after the chat we just had.”

You got through? Yesterday no one was answering the phones and his mailbox was “full”.

From the way I understand it, mobile systems and nuclear sites not declared are not subject to the phony “inspections”. We the Poeple lost this one bigtime. Barry sold the ranch to try to boost his image as some kind of a “peacemaker” instead of the Marxist dictator that he is.

“Left is getting as much of their legislation passed as they can before the New Congress convenes in 2011.

Hopefully, their last hurrah.”

New Congress convening will mean nothing.

I know, you gotta vent, but really, it’s an exercise in time wasting.

Left is getting as much of their legislation passed as they can...

And none of it, or at least most of it, would NOT have passed without the traitorous republican rino moderates!
