Good flippin grief.

I guess your bottom line is that you're paranoid about everything and everybody...outside of your little 'clan'.
Nope. Little clan? LOL its just me and my family here. My bottom line is the FBI likes to shoot little kids in the back and mothers in the head for no reason and kill them, also likes to burn a building down murdering innocent children and civilians.

Rep Frank (D) proposed during 95,97,99
Rep Nadler (D) 1995
Rep Sabo (L) 1991
Rep McConnel (R) 1995
Rep Dreier (R) 1997
Rep Vander Jagt (R) 1991

They all died in committee and no vote on repealing the 22nd ever saw the light of day.
Go back to sleep.
The little demons in your head demand it.
