  3. With luck Dr. Jill will perform the operation.
    There’s a reason he’s called “Dick” – and it has nothing to do with his name.

  4. Senator Sue-them-all is unfortunately the Senator from my State but he doesn’t represent me or about a third of the people here who aren’t Communist. It couldn’t have happened to a bigger jerk unless it happened to Biden.

    On a somewhat related note, I was watching Fox 61 this morning when the news reader, Angelo Bravura, stated that the two Tennessee legislators were expelled from the Tennessee House for protesting for gun control, NOT for violating House rules and disorderly conduct. That’s how screwed up my once great State is.
