14. Yippy for him.

Actually, the best way he can serve his country in this great hour of need is to gather up his nincompoops and help our president do the work that our citizens are begging them all to do. And while they are at it, pass some stricter gun reform laws that ensure the protection and safety of our children. Prayers and condolences may be helpful to the families of the dead, but just plain good common sense and a cheap ink pen from the dollar store will go a long ways to keeping tragedies like these from happening again and again.

Maybe he does have some feelings after all! Sure couldn't prove it on many other teddy51 Dec 2012 #1
