"I don't ask blind people for fashion advice..."

"I don't ask blind people for fashion advice. I don't ask deaf people for musical advice. And I don't ask Republicans for ethics advice."

(my answer to a co-worker when he asked me: "Why did the Democrats shut-out the Republicans on the ethics reforms?")

:rofl:

He laughed, too.

After all, Beethoven was deaf when he wrote what may be the greatest symphony of all time, his 9th.

10. Thank You!!

Yes the 100 hours are not addressing every single issue we face. But Reid & Pelosi never promised they could. Anything Republicans want to pratter on about, they can do AFTER we get the campaign promises taken care of. Love your answer because all they're doing is playing political games which is why they were voted out in the first place.

15. Why pick on blind people?

Surely you don't ask Republicans for fashion advice fashion either.
