That was Al “Stuart Smalley” Franken who tweet the f bombs aimed at the conservative justices by the way. Don’t worry, Franken received his commupence when Nick Searcy tweeted f you back.

24 hours as a wind chime, followed by 24 hours as a bird feeder

At twitter and Yahoo or any site that a “liberal” would post they do not argue a point with facts as the facts never support them. They instead will insult and attack the other posters personally.

I already know what the headlines would scream if my home were to be invaded. I already have more than what the “experts” have arbitrarily determined that I need.
