1. The loons at Certifiable Underground still say it was a 'razor thin' victory.
Bush's court-ordered installation was "a mandate" from the people, but the biggest majority in fifty years is a "razor thin" margin. Only in the world of the certifiable.

3. "biggest majority in fifty years"? NOT.
Edited on Wed Dec-13-06 04:26 PM by TahitiNut
While the number of seat held by the Democratic majority in the 110th Congress will be greater than the number of seats held by Republicans since the "Do-Nothing Congress" of 1947-48, it's NOT the "biggest majority in fifty years." Not by a long shot.

6. Oh, jebus

Sorry. I forgot to post to the lowest common denominator.

I assumed we were all on the same page, having read the op. Bad assumption.

He was a shame to the latino community in America.

9. re: bonilla
What did he do that made him a "shame to the latino community"? Is there a particular piece of legislation?
