Thank god, and FUCK that child-support dodging motherfucker. As soon as he's not officially a Congressman anymore, I hope her lawyers tear out his heart.

Kali Ma Shakti De, motherfucker.

(As a RESPONSIBLE Father, I feel I have a personal stake in this man's quite appropriate punishment, whatever it is.)

Now lets see what happens, if this will really lead to legal pot and a system of distribution like we have for alcohol.

While everything you mention is great and nice.........if Willard had gained the WH nothing could have stopped the pain. A liar in chief....well we had one of those for eight years and it didn't go well at all.

Gay marriage passed in Maine (you mentioned that one), Maryland, and Washington

We now have the possibility of appointing 3-4 supreme court justices (depending on which article you read) that could impact that section of our government for 30 years!

...2-3 new Supreme Court Justices.
Obamacare lives to go into full effect.
Democratic party gets it's rightful credit for the next four years of recovery the economy is on track for.


Those DWARF any of those others. Those are national scale transformative events.

We came VERY close to getting rid of the Batshit Crazy Lady.

Thank you Jim Graves for such a super effort, we'll take her down next time.

MN Voter ID crap? Slapped down.

Gay Discrimination Ammendment? Fail.

I went to bed last night thinking you had gotten rid of crazy lady 6. I woke up this morning, grabbed my phone and was sorely disappointed. I was very happy for my MN friends that you killed that marriage amendment, though. I really needed MN to get rid of Crazy lady 6, though. Ever since I moved to TX I've had to be liberal vicariously through my MN friends.
