| 82. What's this "of course" business? |
|
Edited on Wed Oct-01-03 03:43 PM by Tinoire
20 years in the military and I was registered Dem the entire time as were some other Officers and NCOs.
Most people were registered Republicans and it was no secret who was who because while we follow orders we do follow and discuss politics very closely.
Just when you think you've heard it all, here comes a new "talking point"!
This campaign is getting funnier by the day. What is scary is that the stakes are so high.

| -Clark is a registered Independent, NOT Democrat! |
