Which is how we can get the minimum wage raised and our state budget back in the black! It takes a DEMOCRAT, preferably a Jesuit-educated one! The Jesuits have always been the sharpest knives in the drawer.

I VERY MUCH like having the GOP muzzled and defanged and declawed. Just a few in number so they're prevented from doing any damage with their damn I-hate-government crap. Makes me wonder how they all were as small children - did they throw temper tantrums like this in their car seats or something? Schmucks!

Makes me feel as though we might be able to rehabilitate ourselves from having foisted fucking reagan and fucking Proposition 13 on the nation. We're all still recovering from that pair of blights even now.
