A blogger wrote to Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Connie Schultz to say he was doing an "expose" on "journalists in the elite media who socialize with elected officials they are assigned to cover." A photo showed Schultz hugging Sen. Sherrod Brown. Schultz replied, "I am surprised you did not find a photo of me kissing" the senator — adding, he's my husband.

institutions like D. C.'s St. Elizabeth's Hospital in the 1980s. Not that St. Elizabeth's was a happy place by any means - I visited there a couple of times in the early 70s and it was a sad place.

She's an old friend that I hadn't seen since the shooting. Saturday, I was exhibiting after an art show here in Tucson when she showed up at my booth. We recognized one a other instantly and went in for the hug.
Got a little handsy. I teared up a little.

Republicans haven't ever seen their fearless leader ever getting handsy with his wife, so they don't understand the context of how most people get handsy with each other.

As a US Senator who represents a BORDER STATE wearing Mexico's jersey is bad enough, but I thought he was "super loyal" to his medically brain dead wife who was shot in the head?

@GabbyGiffords this doesn't look like you.

Who is the other woman?


What an absolute POS Loomer is.

Until I saw your post, I was assuming that Laura Loomer really did know who Senator Kelly was with. But now it's clear that she didn't recognize Gabby Giffords.

Why would Loomer describe her as "medically brain dead" which is an obvious, provable lie?

Instead, please let's examine Loomer's brain for any sign of life....

His right hand certainly around her waist. How is that being "handsy?"

And it's likely they were joining other fans rooting for Mexico for the FIFA match the other night. I know a lot of non-Democrats were rooting for Mexico in that same game. And there are lots of Mexican-Americans in Arizona.

Look at the Banksters. Upon deregulation in 1990, they proceeded to raid the S&Ls, precipitating a trillion dollar bailout. Upon deregulation in 2000, they proceeded to raid the Banks. Democratic administrations came in and cleaned up the mess, precipitating a multi-trillion dollar bailout. Both times, we cut back Social Safety net programs to "afford" the bailouts.

And from the days Reagan was sending weapons to the Ayatollah Khomeini, Jeff Epstein continued to sexually assault children, on assignment for the associates of Donald Barr and Son.
