The Left is Growing Weary of Dean
Posted by Robbie Cooper on June 5th, 2005 | TrackbackBut since 1983, when you were elected as a State Representative, you have done nothing but live off the tax payer’s tit.

Posted by Robbie Cooper on June 2nd, 2005 | TrackbackYou know what? I don’t care which one of these two they put to death. In fact, just give ‘em both the needle. That would take care of any ‘reasonable’ doubts in my mind.
