Dec 2017

Although the whole exercise left me in a puddle of tears.

Like many of you, I ask all those holier-than-thou Democrats in Congress: WHERE'S THE OUTRAGE over Republican racists-pedophiles Roy Moore and Donald Trump? It's so typical that they would want to crucify one of their own over a half dozen, one-off improprieties that have yet to be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

I'm about done with the Democratic Party. Without Franken, our most fearless, adept and masterful attack dog among all the jelly fish Democrats, if he resigns, we're doomed!

I'm gonna go have myself another good cry...
