  1. What a perfect metaphor for the Ds! I bet the House D leadership still wants him to be able to vote, LOL.
    It’s funny that the Left can’t meme, but they sure are good subjects.

  3. Well, I ain’t afraid of dying, it’s the thought of being dead
    I wanna go on being me once my eulogy’s been read
    Don’t spread my ashes out to sea, don’t lay me down to rest
    You can put my mind at ease if you fill my last request
    Prop me up beside the ballot box if I die
    Lord, I wanna go to Hell, but I don’t wanna go tonight
    Fill my boots up with sand
    Put a young girl in my hands
    Prop me up beside the ballot box if I die

  4. Imagine being a 70-year-old democrat from a reliably blue district. Just when you think you’ve had your ticket punched to a pension, healthcare and insider information…your ticket gets punched.

  5. Hard not to believe in Divine intervention when so many congress critters have croaked since President Trump first came into office:

    Donald McEachin
    John Conyers
    Elijah Cummings
    John Lewis
    Sheila Jackson Lee
    Alcee Hastings
    Bill Pascrell
    Sylvester Turner

    There seems to be a common theme to the above listed members. Besides being worthless.

    Toss in Diane Feinstein, RBG and the Peanut Farmer.

    Like I said, hard not to believe in Divine intervention. What are the odds?

  6. First-term Rep. Sylvester Turner, D-Texas, died Tuesday night after suffering a medical emergency…

    I hadn’t ever thought of it in these terms, but I guess dying does indeed qualify as a medical emergency.
