      <![CDATA[I was just reminded again of Senator Douche Boozman (ht-AR)* and his no vote on the disability rights treaty yesterday when I tuned into the Daily Show tonight and Jon Stewart scalded the asses of the NO voting Republicans. You have no idea the restraint it has taken to keep from typing every obscene name known to man when talking about Douche Boozman, a seemingly mild mannered man formerly reliving the suffering of the elderly by spending his days adjusting the ear pieces on their eye glasses.<br>
<br>
But then something happened to this gentle man who grew up in Fort Baptist playing football, winning the hand of a beautiful cheerleader.......apparently one night after work while he was wiping the day's accumulation of geezer ear wax off his hands.......he sold his soul to the most horrible people this side of Osama's box-cutter brigade, Republicans!  <br>
<br>
Since then we've been honored to have this low-hanging fruit misrepresent us first in the House and now in the Senate. Because Mumbles is a low-hanger he's used to cast the worst votes that might be a detriment to the careers of the high fruits in Karl Rove's army. Douche is expendable, don't you know and yet ironically safer because of the guaranteed dimness of the average Fox News watching Arkansas voter. Just for good measure Stephen Colbert dumped on the Republican Senators who gave old Bob Dole a send off to the grave by voting NO to his heavily made-up twisted old face. See Bob....you picked the wrong party, didn't you? <br>
<br>
You see, the real Santas are in Congress and we pay them a hell of a lot more than the new LR Santa to sneak down the chimneys of the Capitol and leave bags of suffering for the poor, the very young, the old, our beat up veterans and even crippled people, not just once a year, but all 126 days of the year they pretend to work. Why would any person with an ounce of compassion in their body ever cast a vote for a damn Republican?  Shame on you!<br>
<br>

      <![CDATA[SAA, how can you say that when a great percentage of the "electorate"  is convinced that, among other things, that "disabled" vote yesterday (where sen.NO, R-walmart, ran over Bob Dole's wheelchair to vote NO) would have allowed the U.N. to take away disabled children?  Plus, damn near 50% of the re-whatevers think ACORN stole the election this year. Where is Luxora in our time of need?

No, in the past, Robert Newcomb worked for free and you gave him a $100 honorium. So you wasted $400 of the state's money.
