...it pours for John McCain.

The AP: "State Rep. Bob Allen, a co-chair of Republican presidential candidate John McCain's Florida campaign, is expected to address Thursday charges that he offered to perform oral sex on an undercover male police officer for $20."

"Allen, who sponsored a failed bill that would have tightened the state's prohibition on public sex, scheduled a news conference at his lawyer's office to discuss Wednesday's arrest. A spokeswoman for Allen declined further comment."

McCain seems to be the perfect replacement for Bush. He is spending money he doesn't have on an election he can't win and his friends suck.

Can't wait to hear how the talk-radio zoo will spin this one. Looks like I have a few phone calls to make. Watch out, Rush, Sean, and Mark, here I 'come'. LMAO...

Now that we've established the kind of lady Mel is, all that remains is to negotiate a price.

This Just In- The Drudge report says the Rep Allen was screening random men for WMD

No thanks, Sideshow Bob. I would lose my job as a church musician if I become that kind of lady. There is an old pump organ at the little country church up the road and it's great fun to play. When I get tired of pumping the foot pedals, the deacon will send a healthy young man from out of the congregation to work the bellows apparatus on the back of the instrument. From where I'm sitting on the bench I cannot observe the young man working away, but the ladies in the choir sure get distracted (and one tenor who claims it's his asthmna acting up). Guess I'll go practice the piano now.

Mel you almost made me want to go to church!!!! lmao

I must confess I do not have a lawn mower. Never mowed a lawn in my life! I do expect to get my reward in heaven for the lovely things I do not for but with my husband. But I am jealous that you can play the paino and the organ.

H P Boston, sounds like you are happily married. 'Life is short, so eat more ice cream' is my motto. Dad's is 'take time to sit in the porch swing and canoodle with your sweetie'. Maybe that's what's wrong in D.C., not enough ice cream and porch swings.

We'll know you're there because the walls will start to crumble.

Pete RePete, the walls won't crumble. H P confessed to telling a fib about the lawn mower and to feelings of jealousy. So she's got one up on the self-righteous hypocrits! There's a couple of politicians that attend my church...hmmmm, is that why we have to re-do the tuck pointing on the bricks so frequently?
