Good riddance. When she staged that XL Pipeline vote that she knew the Donk dunderheads would reject, solely to save her own sorry azz, it showed her lack of character.

Maybe she can get a job as a stripper on Bourbon Street.

That's a great cartoon
Dems put blacks back into slavery and taught them to love their owners...amazing


Money well spent bringing Hillary in to campaign for her

She was certainly no Buddy Roemer (a Republican I would definitely vote for.)

Good riddance to another corporatist Blue Dog. :clap:

Near the end she was running at least one ad on at least one "Black" radio station in New Orleans including the inference that Cassidy believes being on welfare is worse than slavery. Absolutely false, of course. But it's kind of typical of Democratic Party politics in that area. It's part of the thing where they realize that they depend on overwhelming support among Blacks to win so they try to get as many Blacks "motivated" to vote as they possibly can.

Here's a link to discussion about the ad:

Another thing she did was try to claim that he got paid by LSU Medical School for stuff he didn't do. I did a little research and it quickly became clear that LSU medical school thought it was getting a bargain...that he was contributing way more in terms of value than he was getting paid. Had to so with him being a certain kind of liver specialist that was unique to their system and they needed him and that he was doing what he was doing for peanuts.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

1) It was a follow up quote to Ivytalk's Monte Python quote, you insufferable, humorless, ignorant, twat! IF, you ever watched the Holy Grail, most of it went right over your head.

But...

2) Some business people are indeed scheming, greedy, oligarchs. If you can't admit how our current system rewards political corruption, and how much this is reflected on Wall Street, you're more dimwitted than I thought.

3) Buddy Roemer is also an investor and banker…you know…a capitalist.

Probably right
Not much anyone can do to help the young folks from paying very high taxes the rest of their lives after what BHO and the Dems have done to them
