How do you think the conservatives of Flint, Michigan feel?

Before living here I lived in Lincoln, and of course that's where the penguin himself, Dick Cheney, was from. That wasn't great either.

But as far as what she says, she can say what ever she likes. I'm free not to like it.

Again, what's the problem? I wake up every morning to the fact that my district is the one Ernie Chambers "represented."

But can you remember how you felt when you first found out about Ernie? I don't expect ya'll to "feel my pain", I'm just saying you open the paper wanting to relax a little bit and then you greeted by something like that. YUK!

No, I just have a problem with her attaching our city to the the brain dead teabagger movement.

As hard as it is to believe when Ernie ran for Attorney General against (? I can't remember who) I voted for him. I still think he would have made a great one.

I haven't paid much attention to the Teabagger Movement, nor have I participated in any way. But as a fiscal conservative, I will say that the administration that has overseen the tripling of our national debt in one year, darned well better start listening to SOMEBODY.
