Notice how they never stay much longer to play? :p :p :p Now, now, Tony...the East Coast isn't exactly folding up. Think of it as practicing tolerance when faced with differing views. [Insert time for required GOP gagging here] And, while I'm open to having this discussion anytime, chatroom format is hardly the forum I'd choose. Finally, despite my distaste for Dubya, don't just assume that I would be a full fledged Dem either because that would be inaccurate. ;) |

when I am paid to do it, I do it well. |

Location: the BIG Metropolis of TR | At last.... A bumper sticker for both parties. FINALLY, someone has come out with a 100% bipartisan political bumper sticker. The hottest selling bumper sticker comes from New York State:
"2008 - RUN HILLARY RUN"
Democrats put it on the rear bumper.
Republicans put it on the front bumper.
sorry......Tony started it :rolleyes: |

"Want a great deal of love"
"Want a great deal of love"
"Want a great deal of love"

"At last, a bumper sticker for both parties...
'Run, Jeb, Run!'
BOTH parties put it on the FRONT bumper..."

Nope, no baseball here. When I was a youngster, my folks made me try out for Little League (although I had no interest). The flyer said, 'Everyone makes a team!' I didn't. 'Nuff said. |
