    Maybe congress should adopt a uniform for serving in congress, lol

    Army here, you?

    I agree I do not wear a pin on my suits (when I have to wear one, god I hate wearing suits:) ) but maybe the it is better to say politicians wearing a flag = no meaning.

    It has been by the neocons.

    Is anyone else bothered by the constant emphasis on the "fight"? I mean, can the right think in no other terms?

    War on Drugs
    War on Terror

    Most definitely not.

    It's a play on armchair quarterbacks.

    Every armchair quarterback can always do better than the guy actually on the field.

    And go from there...

    Has Palin ever said "Vice President" or does she always refer to it as "Vee Pee?"

    two issues, she won't do more interviews...she's going to continue to hide?

    and she wants more constitutional responsibility/power for the VP, WTF? after Cheney we are going to allow more? that's freakin crazy!
