    Can’t we make them happy by giving Diebold ann Halliburton
    another Gazillion for the monopoly on the damn machines?

    Then can we start some Homeland Security that actually
    protects the homeland?

    Unless there was a rider in the bill authorizing the President power to kill kittens with a hammer, I don’t understand why they would vote against it.

    Where’s DuggerPedro and HedleyFrank? Or FarrisStick? Come on guys, what’s the explanation?

    It won’t be long now, Frame, Rush’s show just started. Or Rush will ignore it, like Hannity does when it is something that can’t be spun.

    Maybe it was the Republican Congress’ evil twin that voted against port security and for Al Queda?

    Wow, I guess Rush and Sean didn’t discuss the bill. I wonder why? Maybe they were just so excited about St. Patricks Day that they forgot.
