The main reason is that they have absolutely no one else to run for President, so the grab onto anyone still breathing.

Glen Beck even said Teddy Roosevelt was a socialist - go figure.

To Glen Beck, everyone is a Socialist, or a Nazi. Well, 'cept maybe Reagan.

(Oh, that's right, in GBs mind a Socialist and a Nazi are the same thing.)

My immediate supervisor would go thru my desk drawers & raise hell that they weren't "tidy". Or see a magazine on my desk-I also sorted the mail, & frequently had junk mail on my desk-& raise hell over the magazine being "Not printing related". I had MSNBC as my sign-on screen, & I got dinged over that. Penny-ante bullshit. She didn't like that I kept my door closed, either. But during the winter, they kept the heat so low, that was the only way to stay halfway warm. If you stopped in the hall & visited w/a co-worker more than about 30 seconds you got the fish-eye, too. I pity the people still up there. We were GOOD people, but the new owners were a bunch of arsewholes. Oh, & I had to sign somethin' when I was let go, sayin' I wouldn't "Disparage" Mundet...Well, Steven Wright, you & all the other jerkovs can go kiss what I can't ! I hope you go broke, that's what you deserve...That "Disparagin'" enuff for ya ?!? (grin) I've been gone 18 months now, I'll say what I please...
Went through your desk drawers?

You know, a conibear trap inside of a pair of panties would have put an end to that.

Since you were getting fired anyway.
