Support the Troops? Nah

Johnson didn't vote because he almost died and is still at home recovering.

Brownback likely had a campaign event, though I don't know for sure. Think he was in Iowa yesterday.

 

I thank you.

 

I wish that thing had gotten 59 votes without him voting, so he could explain his absence. I know he would have voted against, but he still would have had to explain himself.

 

No trouble.

Had the dems gotten to 59 on the whip count on that one, I can only imagine you'd have seen a great scene with Johnson -- whose son is in the service -- being wheeled down the aisle to cast the deciding vote.

That scenario still might play out on one of these war bills.

 

Where's Howard Stackhouse when you need him?

 

Trust me, CJ, you do not mess with the grandchildren.

We were here before you and they will be here after you. We will break bones, we will... You do not mess with the grandchildren.

There's no holiday for us, either.

Let's get him some help. And maybe a drink of water.

 

Wow.

How much do the Dems need to pay a couple hypocritical family-values hookerphiles to make that happen?
