		<description>If I get the disability forms and put that down....can I get some volunteers to co-sign and corroborate that is IS a pre-existing condition of mine?  Wonder how much disability pays for stupidity?  I did vote for Clinton-TWICE.  Isn&#039;t that proof enough?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;OMG, did “stupidity” get classified as a mental disorder, HR? God help our rising medical costs, if that’s the case….&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I think for too many people it would be a preexisting condition.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The only person who didn’t know that was Palin - she couldn’t see it from her backyard…&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Probably too busy looking at the Russian bombers flying over her house (something they don&#039;t do in Delaware).</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;John Ryan:  how low can that be ? only 25% of Americans approve of the Republicans in Congress –Bush is leading them at 29%&lt;/blockquote&gt;

That would be because there are Republicans in Congress, but few to no conservatives, John Ryan.  They have become virtually undistinguishable from the Democrats.

You like to think 37% approve of Democrats in Congress.  I prefer to view the glass more accurately.  63% think they&#039;re idiots too.

And overall, 20% is the Congressional approval rating... or  by my standards, 80% of the nation (or in reality, 80% of the 1008 Americans who answered the phone that evening...) think they are all a pile of manure.  Put me in that category.</description>

		<description>Fortunately for the Democrats, the Republicans have lowered the bar so low that the Democrats are not going to have to do much to be the preferred party. And for the first time  the Republicans in Congress now have posted a lower approval rating  than even Bush http://www.gallup.com/poll/113449/Republicans-Congress-Less-Popular-Than-Bush.aspx
how low can that be ? only 25% of Americans approve of the Republicans in Congress --Bush is leading them  at 29%</description>
