1. Fucking assholes, the GODDAMN LAW doesn't even fucking mention Samoa...

and that's because before the minimum wage law was passed, there was already a special system set up to do American Samoa's minimum wage!

Here are the laws covering this:

2. It seems that DelMonte does not contribute to Pelosi, only Pugs.

4. It's another fucking invented scandal...

because there wouldn't even be a minimum wage bill if the Republicans had their way.

3. Better get used to it.

It's going to be like this non stop for the next 2 years.

5. I think this may turn around and a scandal for them...

because I remember hearing Representatives on the floor, from the Republicans jibing Barney Frank about this.

6. No one gives a crap about "tunagate"

The righties and Fux don't give one iota about anyone in Pelosi's district or anyone else's. The whole point of this is to get a D, any D, on defense instead of offense. It's the Rove strategy of all negative all the time. Nit pick on stupid shit on any Dem they can until it builds up in people's minds. It gets the focus off the fabulous accomplishment of getting more money in people's pockets. Which is really all the R's and Fux want.

It is going to be like this non stop for the next 2 years.
