    Presidential candidate Phillbo is merely pandering for the all-important women's vote by showing that the future First Lady is not a mere figurehead in governing their household...She also graciously allows him to mow the lawn and do the laundry while she keeps his valuables safely tucked away in a little velvet bag......Ben

    Do you think that has anything to do with how his voice seems to suddenly change from time to time

    So I take it you've noticed how this occurrence seems to coincide with Nurse Paula reaching into her purse...Just a coincidence I'm sure; he'll still make a fine President during daylight hours......Ben

    Just between us Ben, and this is nothing against BO-------BUT, I have seen a few pictures of Nurse Paula--------and my primary goal in helping to get Bo elected it to get Nurse Paula in the First Lady slot!

    Why do you think I work so hard on his perennial campaign?...I assure you it's not for what I can skim from the electioneering fund......Ben

    I'm not sure I'm with you on this one, boys. For, Melania is definitely one of the most attractive first ladies we've had.

    I don't argue that---but she is way above my pay grade----trophies like that come with a very high price tag---or is it more like a rental rate?

    Not only is Melania well educated, she also speaks Slovene, French, Italian, German, and Serbo-Croatian.

    And, while Mel's husband has publicly bullied people, Mel launched an anti-bullying campaign for school children.

    She is the second first lady (after Louisa Adams) born outside the United States, the first one to be a naturalized citizen and the first whose native language is not English (Wikipedia).

    Does this mean you have cast poor Ms Pears to the curb to run after a new trophy
