2. After that, can we talk him into addressing an Animal Rights
organization, showing the wolf in Alaska being shot from an airplane, as authorized by Sarah Palin?

3. Fantastic news. Biden is doing what Obama has done all along.
He's including the LGBT community in the conversation.

We are all in the United States of America.

And the sooner those in charge start getting wise on equality

and what a good thing it is for everybody the better.

Biden and Obama are brave and intelligent politicians who are

doing the good work. Keep going guys.

5. The HRC has endorsed Susan Collins for Senate
I cannot support them because of this. There's an excellent Democrat running against her. The HRC has bought into her hype.

Shame.
