Beautiful granddaughter!
Is there a breakdown by party?
Hi Dr. Charles -- thanks. I'm not sure how many of the charges are politically motivated, but oh, my god, they are scary people.
Yoga, thank you! I adore her. She's also very playful. And no, I don't have a breakdown by party, wish I did, because I think they're all going to be Right Wing Nuts.
OMFG.... these numbers are outta this frickin world. Jeebus, I have to be randomly drug tested 4 times a yr, plus pass my annual background check to be a pre-school teacher. And these freaks get to make laws & decide America's future with numbers like that?
Tina, it's a little outrageous, n'est pas?
Wow, where did these statistics come from? I believe them, but I wonder what the source is. Thanks for posting this!
Sigrid, I admit to being somewhat irresponsible because I don't know where the stats came from. But it struck me as a pretty good joke, plausible and probably fairly close to the truth. So up it went.
