2. It is amazing to me the way that these bastards keep

patting themselves on the back and giving themselves awards....and everything they have touched has failed and turned to shit.

How can Americans not be disgusted by this..

3. What? No Presidential Medal of Freedom for a job poorly done?! nt

4. That those two fuckers were even in the same company

as Lindy Boggs and Fr. Drinan is a travesty.

They don't deserve to breathe the same air.

Or, actually, to breathe.

Fr. Drinan is a great, great man. He's a wonderful man who has done wonderful work.

5. Why Dick? Why now?

Republicans trying to get it done before:

1) Dick's impeached?
2) Dick resigns?
3) Dems take over the house?
