  1. And NO ONE is wearing a mask.

    You’ve got to like Wilcox’s hair though.

  2. Shut the hell up “BecauseScience” you sound like a little ninnyboy.

    We’re not afraid of that crap around here. WE TOLD YOU!!!

  3. I’ve never thought of John Reinert as a luminary before.

    Some other words come to mind.

  4. Many RINOs present I see.

    At least my senator McConchie didn’t stink up the place.

  5. Reinert?

    C’mon let’s get serious.

    When these people start calling out the enemy, maybe I’ll reconsider going.

    Did Kenneally, Reick, Prim-Quim, Althoff, Tryon show?

    usten and Shepley there in spirit?

  6. Read the story more thoroughly and some of your questions are answered.
