Leftist dropping like flies across industry and the political spectrum, but of course that’s because Democrats have integrity.

Wow! Now that’s some interesting logic.

Thanks for the background.

SD to the West with George McGovern is arguably worse...

The Republicans see your Al Franken resignation and raise you a Trent Franks resignation.

Now let’s see who the 17 million was spent on.

What it shows is the dirty politics the dems play.

They pretend to “sacrifice” a democrat senator, whose replacement will be a guaranteed democrat, while in exchange they want a solid republican senate seat to be filled by a democrat.

Even a two year old can see through their self serving scheme.

My greatest fear? That we get all SOCIALIST Governors in the Great Lakes States and they SELL our water to the highest bidder, foreign or domestic!

We do have a contract/compact that that CAN’T happen without ALL Governors signing on to it - and believe me, it WOULD be WWIII if that ever happened, but...stranger things HAVE happened so far in my lifetime. :(

Lolz. We don’t care what you wapo scum say or what the Rats say. Your “strategy” to take down Trump wont work. Neither he nor his supporters are listening to your propaganda you filthy babymurdering slime.

He ANNOUNCED plans to resign someday, maybe.

Until he’s gone he hasn’t stepped down or resigned.

FTR, Franken did NOT resign. He merely stated his intention to resign “in a few weeks”. He also continues to take no responsibility. Franken claims some events didn’t happen, others he “remembers differently”. All and all a well rehearsed blowing of smoke. They don’t like Franken, and see him as a liability. Knowing he will be replaced by one equally odious, under the bus he goes. Same with Conyers. He’s done, regardless, soon to be replaced by a younger version of himself. All this is an attempt to set the Dims up on the moral high ground against Moore and eventually, Trump. Imagine the Dims being sanctimonious and holier-than-thou about, well, frankly anything!

They aren’t as clever as they think, though. Liars have too much to remember, and eventually trip themselves up. Some talking head on Fox brought up Bill Clinton’s improprieties, and the liberal guest naturally remarked how it was absurd to dredge up something from twenty years ago. Of course it never registered that accusations against Moore are from forty years ago and are unsubstantiated. Monica kept the dress.

Hanging out
Down the street
The same old thing
We did last week

Not a thing to do
But to talk to you
Woah, yeah
Hello Wisconsin

Mom and Dad
Live upstairs
The music’s loud
So we don’t care

Nixon’s gone
But rock lives on
Alright

We’re still rocking in Wisconsin
Oh yeah
We’re still rocking in Wisconsin
That’s right

Steal a car
And drive on down
Pick me up
And we’ll drive around

Not a thing to do
But talk to you
Woah, yeah
Hello Wisconsin

If you are talking about the great lakes that would need permission from Canada too and that will never happen. The water ain’t going anywhere except out to the ocean eventually. :)

Both of our “two great parties” are finished.

The stain on the blue dress says otherwise.
