Paul Broun will not get my vote a second time due to his stupid, unconstitutional, potentially expensive anti-choice bill -- which is also stupid and expensive because it doesn't have a snowball's chance of becoming law, so it's merely a waste of our legislative time.Flannery O'Clobberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17983598582245890509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5994679863347954941.post-46634429531532712392007-12-17T20:28:00.000-05:002007-12-17T20:28:00.000-05:00Austin Rhodes, eh?

It was just dropped on members' desks and they voted on it pretty much sight unseen.<BR/><BR/>See the piece by Austin Rhodes of Metro Spirit down in Augusta.
