...would you like your bad news for Obama? All in one thread? I'm afraid that would violate some sort of EPA toxicity limits or something. :lol:

The only way a specific issue gets addressed around here is if and only if it has it's own thread and even then it's maybe 2-3 pages before it becomes something to do with sex, kittens, infidelity, alcohol, domestic issues and/or the Tiki Bar.

...have easily done that and been in great shape next time or two around or, even better, been a prominent veep. He's got his whole life riding on this now because the Dems don't much like their fallen hero's coming back around.
