Takes One To Know One
I am so sick and tired of Republicans like Stantis and their false arguments. Yes Scott, it's a do-nothing Congress. They get nothing done, nothing at all. And since the Democrats are in the majority, they must be to blame, right?

Scotty tries to go for a two-fer today - Winslow can't believe that Carmen isn't spending her time with that eeevil technology and is simply doing nothing (like Congress, of course). Gee, I wonder - what if it was Winslow that was sitting out in the desert doing nothing? Think Stantis would have gone for a cheap welfare joke? Maybe talk about how he's waiting for the flood like the Katrina victims? Ohhh I've got it - he'd say he's just like Obama, because Obama hasn't done anything in his political career.
