Way to go, Mitch! If we defund Smokey's hot air balloon for a hundred thousand years, we'll save enough to buy an extra B2 bomber. That's how the math works, you turtlefaced old fuckwit.

I did some reading at Wikipedia on this asshole. Life long politician. Never had a real job and he's a chicken hawk with fake MS.

“McConnell enlisted in the 100th Division (Training), U.S. Army Reserve, in Louisville, Kentucky, during his final semester of law school. He did six months active service at Fort Knox, thereafter serving the active reserve.[7] He received an early discharge for optic neuritis, which is a common manifestation of multiple sclerosis.[8] However, it is unknown if he has multiple sclerosis.”

Since his number one agenda was seeing to it that Obama was not reelected, It is thrilling to think what constructive goal is agenda number two.

Why so persistent with "the" between "Smokey" and "Bear", Editrix? Is it some kind of droll just-folks humor?
