So, the MSM and the Senate Dems are putting out a bunch of stuff about the Reid plan as an alternative to the Boehner plan in the House.  Problem being, as usual, no one has SEEN the frickin’ Reid plan.  It’s Obamacare all over again–they are working behind the scenes and keeping it secret until… Continue reading

As Tam mentioned a couple of days ago, everyone, from Congresscritters to the MSM seems to be stuck in euphemism-land on the Wu case.  It seems to me that the definition of ‘unwanted sexual encounter’ would, in any other context (or if it was a Republican or a Conservative), be called ‘rape’.
