    Sen. McConnell is one of the biggest corporate shills in the Senate and he continues to obstruct the nomination of Loretta Lynch. If the Koch Brothers want it, McConnell will do his best to get it for them, no matter what it costs the poor and middle class.

    I think he sucks big mule balls. People from Kentucky must be dumber than mule shit to keep sending his sorry, raggedy ass back to DC.

    Poor Turtle Man looks unhappy, in the upper photo. Don’t be mean to him. He’s already a super-loser.

    I’m guessing you’ve never visited the great state of Kentucky? If you ever should visit northern Kentucky be sure to include in your itinerary a trip to Big Bone Lick State Park.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Bone_Lick_State_Park
    It’s on Beaver Road , between the towns of Beaver Lick and Rabbit Hash.
    Beautiful place.

    I thought Congressional pay raises were automatic and votes were taken only to say “No, thanks”, usually (only?) when there is no raise for Social Security recipients.

  6. Mike Spindell says:

    McConnell has worked in government for his entire career. He is now one of the richest Senators due to money given him by his father-in-law. His wife Elaine was Secretary of Labor in George W. Bush’s cabinet: Yet another “self-made” man talking about the evils of government. Otherwise known as a whore.

    pete:

    that sounds like a good name for a whorehouse. Or a gay bar.

  8. James Knauer says:

    Well, now give poor Mitch a break. He’s still working tirelessly on that singular policy decision made election eve of 2008: to make Obama a one-term President.

    And nothing else.

    To the Flowers for Socrates Blog:

    “Liberty is too precious a thing to be buried in books. . . . Men should hold it up in front of them every single day . . . and say, “I’m free to think and to speak. My ancestors couldn’t. I can. And my children will.”

    Thanks for the opportunity.
