WTF?

I guess your meds misfired again, Perry. I complimented Tamar on her logic and that somehow makes me divisive? I don't know Cunningham or Delay from Adam so I'm not sure how that makes them my "heros". I am a conservative-libertarian. Which means I don't give a doggone.

As for "Govt for Sale" being a supposed monopoly of the GOP, Perry, watch your step. Either you're willfully ignorant or just plain blind but for every incidence of GOP corruption you could name I can match it or exceed it with Dem corruption. C'mon....I dare you. As Harry Callahan said, "make my day".

>Since you're trying to make this an us vs. them issue, inquiring minds would like to know how this is different from your heros like Duke Cunningham and Delay hanging "Govt for Sale" shingles outside their office?
