Well, Georgia did say they would welcome military aid from any quarter.

This is why third party candidates aren't taken seriously in this country.

You know what they say about a Boba Fett impersonator. The bigger the gun, the smaller the man.

Friends don't let friends talk them into wearing costumes.

First the supreme court declares it is an individual right to bear arms and now this. If you can't see the slippery slope as you are sliding down it, don't be surprised at the landing.

Forget same sex marriages. I want to know where the candidates stand on costume theme marriages.
