Shame

The Democrats get played on two fronts. The House, including all the Democrats from Connecticut, voted today to condemn Moveon.

Joe Courtney votes to withdraw all troops within 9 months.

Pathetic Republicans on the attack

I embark upon blogging today with some trepidation, as I have just returned from the Seahorse restaurant, where my wife and I enjoyed the early week special ($21.99 for two meals and a bottle of wine, a mere $12.00 if you forego the wine). Unfortunately, my wife did not pull her weight, so far as […]
