ANOTHER FLINTSTONE BITES THE DUST! PL RESPONDS.

Mitch McConnell, leader of a Republican minority that is now even smaller, suggested Tuesday that Sen. Arlen Specter's defection endangered not just the party, but the entire country.

"I think the threat to the country presented by this defection really relates to the issue of whether or not in the United States of America our people want the majority to have whatever it wants without restraint, without a check or a balance," says Mitch.

Hey, Mitch, you know what? The last thirty years of Republican rule have done more damage to the United States than any period since Buchanan was president, leading up to the Civil War. Even Herbert Hoover, a complete incompetent, looks tolerable in comparison.

So, I suggest you either get on the wagon and join the forces of history and change or move to Alaska and start watching the Flintstones with Sarah.
