8. OMG! What a line up!
|
I love all of these.
I am especially glad Tammy Duckworth is on the docket. She has another douche bag wing nut as an opponent, Joe Walsh. Sandra Fluke. I wonder what she will talk about. NARAL. Planned Parenthood. They are going to fucking nail the war on women to the Republican's door. I am sure Akin, Ryan, and all the state legislature nonsense should figure prominently. |

I don't want to miss a minute of what they have to say.
I especially want to hear Tammy D, Sandra F. and anyone from planned Parenthood. Oh yes, Bill Clinton! |
