We've had fake elections, fake intelligence, fake threats to our
national security, fake reports of record surpluses so Bush could give

However, daily drug testing for our DEA should be absolutely mandatory.

Unless we are lucky what you’ll just get in the end when they pass a medical insurance bill, is a limp-dick quadruple-loophole infested political fart praised by a choir of elected blowhards singing how it was a heroic compromise inspired by god himself.

The rulers of this country are a crime syndicate.
