| 107. would have been nice if we heard all this stuff before. |

like when he was rolling over and begging for treats from dubya. the republicans were rolling over for bush? i don't think anyone was rolling over more than harry friggin reid! i mean really!! they stand silent for EIGHT YEARS!!! while bush is trashing our constitution. while bush is destroying our reputation around the world. he at the very least sits and says nothing. but NOW he is going to stand on prinicpal. not be pushed around. he's going to fight tooth and nail a blogovich appointment. he's going to fight obama. that's so nice to hear harry. but that train left the station for you, pal! it doesn't work to stand up to your own guy. asshole!!
