    NICE! Thanx for posting this DB. I hope Stephen keeps making fun of Obama’s bone-headed comments about how small town folks are just bigots who cling to religion and guns because they’re bitter about their lives. LOL

    @DB
    I commented on this earlier and my comment seems to have been removed. I hope I didn’t offend! Just wondering why it was removed, since what I said was not as mean spirited as the other comment currently on this entry…

    Anyway, I wish Hillary luck. She certainly has guts if she is going to appear tomorrow. Hope it is fun for all!
