7. One of the Great Movie scenes ever....

That and "I'll be your Huckleberry" and the twirling of his liquor cup. Kilmer should have won the Academy Award for his acting (if he didn't) in that movie.

8. Yes, indeed..I had the opportunity, when we first moved to AZ, to visit Tombstone..

which is still vibrant..and Old Tucson - that has been rebuilt after a fire...

You mention some of the great scenes of the movie..can't you just see Obama saying to the pos.."I'll be your huckleberry" or "say when"....

2. The Hill is a Trump campaign organ

And it shows.

6. Yeah. "Salivating". As if that's something Democrats do about politicos.

We're excited about the possibility of President Obama's involvement in Joe Biden's campaign.

But we're not a bunch of rapey, drunken frat-boy Republicans "salivating" over......whatever it is rapey, drunken frat-boy Republicans salivate over.

10. Yes, that word really pissed me off as well.

Shows you where their bread is buttered.

4. Release the Kraken! The electoral one.

Americans want decency and normality. President Obama is the very definition of decency!
