Who are these "swine" to whom you're referring? George II Sep 2021 #85
Tell that to Sarandon and Turner! I have no doubt that THEY see the Democratic party as their enemy. NurseJackie Sep 2021 #67
Our revolution did not think so. And Sarandon is working to strengthen third parties . Demsrule86 Sep 2021 #69

Certain politicians and others talk about "middle class, this" and "middle class, that"... NurseJackie Sep 2021 #4
