You remember what that POS pelosi said about obama care, we have to pass the bill to find out whats in it,well this is the same thing we have to have him head the intellegence commitee to find out if he will sell our secret information to ISIS and Russia.Certainly makes me sleep better at night knowing we have people like this running our country
I remember Alcee Hastings from when I lived in Miami 30 years ago. He was a judge and the most corrupt, money-grubbing, racist person I had ever met.
What a country we live in. I thought we had laws that protected us from criminals running for office.
