Damnit!
Too bad I'll be in class...
Mr. Eric: Are you whining already about the debate?
Don't you realize your comments make you appear very silly and ignorant?
From my readings of Mr. Mulshine's columns, he is a very solid conservative writer/thinker.
Are you suggesting Dick Zimmer cannot handle questions from a conservative?
I just hope NJN or someone videotapes it so I can see it.
Gloves are off.
Let's see what Zimmer, Jersey Joe and Dr. Sabrin are made of. Let's videotape it!
Yeah Actually..
I'd like to see a tape of it or something like that.
Sabrin has an upper hand
in that Mulshine is a libertarian (and was a Ron Paul supporter) just like Sabrin.
