Comments & Feedback
Schmitty I just wanted to say that your comments in: Does the GOP have an obligation to denounce the recent racist and homophobic attacks on Democrats in Congress? were almost like a breath of fresh air. I was very nice to read someone make a case and the author of the article debunked. Your argument was very well put. I almost felt sorry that the author had to resort to the ultimate form of ignorance by calling you ignorant. Thank you for that, I was a great read...
Why yes, yes it is... was in gettin' a little work done under the grill (pun intended) and shot a self-portrait...
Plus, for some reason, I liked the image of having a mouthful of radioactive green... lol
Is that a dental dam in your picture???!!!
