These stupid idiots must not feel there are more pressing concerns...
You're right... the switch to styrofoam was more of an immediate concern.

I am sure there is still a huge cache of shot glasses in what was Senator Kennedy's office. Go put them to good use.

Include those from the Dubya and Cheney collections and Congress is covered!

Wurtz used to work for Koch Industries, the liberal bete noir whose leaders have emerged as the tycoons Democrats love to hate. Huffington Post reporter Elise Foley points out that House Republicans didn't pick the purveyor; that decision was made by Restaurant Associates, the firm that manages the House cafeteria. Not that that's going to stop a stream of indignant press releases from House Democrats, who gleefully slammed Republicans for their promotion of "the environmentally disastrous use of styrofoam."
I'm sure someone is getting billions in revenue from the sale of lunch room Styrofoam cups

You left out a reference TO H-A-L-I-B-U-R-T-O-N, so I guess the left wing rage monkey is not so hungry these days.

Hey, someone wants to start whining about drunks let's look at both sides of the aisle. Or would that be too reasonable for ya?

And before you even start with the Kennedy rag, realize one thing. Both Dubya and Cheney have DWIs on their records, the only thing that separates those drunks from Kennedy is pure dumb luck.

You are assuming Cheney and Bush would have abandoned their passenger after they crashed into the water.

You're assuming they could only have had a one car accident.

I'm assuming NOTHING! I know those who make it home drunk without having an accident do so by pure dumb luck, nothing else, so you can stop the self-Righteous attempt to defend them.
