I had a profound feeling of deja vu reading that subject line.

About all the McConnell does is confirm judges, run for office, and block bills. AND he's proud of it!

Meanwhile, that is an insane amount of power for one person for so long. It is really disturbing that such a dull, unimpressive man could be able to affect so many people's lives.

I will have to rearrange my daily routine in order to drive to his grave every day to piss on it. In addition to the wasted time, gas and urine, I am sure the line will be ridiculous. You would hope the cemetery will have the common decency to install velvet ropes and a turnstile to cut down of the chaos from the crowd.
