What bullshit. This is just preparatory language for blaming the Democrats if/when we have a shutdown. The GOP controls all three branches of government. If they can't keep the government up and running without Democratic votes, this problem is on them.

I think it is fun! I would love to attend a party there. No way would I want to live there. Oh, and that blue and white check area rug goes with nothing. I am wondering if the house, stripped of all the byzantine gilded garbage, actually has good bones. Impossible to tell from the photos. Obviously they have an insane amount of money to be able to irrigate a lawn like that. I suppose it is possible they are in a less desertified area of AZ, but still.

I don't know if the EPA has all of the SuperFund sites mapped out on their website (and don't want to know) but they did before 9/11, and removed this information, "for national security reasons."

You want butt crack? Come to my gym. Lots of the women are wearing tights that act like thongs, deep into the crack. It’s quite sightly, but unfair to us old lechers. You kind of have to try not to look.

We have been one of those too. I didn’t think I’d like it but I do.

That woman needs to get the hell out of Texas.
