I’m thinking we could do something similar for Brownlee…
Pretty funny – good one!
I’m jealous — You thought of this before I did. Good work!
I just want a President and VP who respect the Constitution, know how to win a war, are fiscally responsible, won’t run up $4,000,000,000,000 in debt, won’t destroy our economy, won’t illegally politicize government agencies…
Ragnar,
Get a sense of humor. Please.
Wasn’t my response funny? Gee, I guess I don’t think trampling on the Constituion or prosecuting people for political reasons is funny either.
Now GOP Sen. Ted Stevens being indicted? Priceless… and DAMN funny.
So does that year of missionary work in Honduras for the Jesuits disqualify him as being having an overdeveloped foriegn policy resume?
You also forgot – must dissavow any prior fondness for “townhall” meetings.
Rumor has it Kaine may even get the nod today in misourri.
Is the job Ambassador to Honduras?
We did get something out of Kaine’s Transportation special session: HB 6028. [Henry laughs at Reid and the VBTA.]
Brian,
Why not? Kaine is one of the few liberal Democrats that could probably place Tegucigalpa on a map.
Henry, I’d support him fully…..now! George W! Get on it.
When you read Ragnar’s comment one has to assume that…ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzz\
