Nov 4

And am still very close to my ex. We make better friends than we made a couple.

I am a cheerfully divorced woman as is he a cheerfully divorced man. Talk about the GOP basically wanting to live in the public’s bedroom .

So let me get this. The GOP doesn’t want environmental or labor regulations or safety nets i.e. nothing that protects humans (or other animals) or the environment. But you do have these creeps permanently in your bedroom?

Small govt libertarianism is not something I have much respect for, but this is even worse..the govt will not do anything worth doing (EPA, DOE, SS etc must go) and instead the main role of govt is being Creep Supreme. Wtf?
