Eyeless in Gaza, Naked in Cleveland
DeLay
The Republicans in the House of Representatives approved a rules change today that will allow Tom DeLay to remain their leader, even if indicted in Texas on corruption charges. It’s another proud day for the Republic!
Clinton

I hope Nancy McKeon gets to help somebody.
