S*it or get off the pot..

that is an old saying my Dad used to use, when someone was drawing out a conversation too long..and not making a point.

And I am at the place, when I just about shout it, every time I see something from Boehner.. or McConnell.. or Palin.. or any number of commentators, activists, etc etc etc.

If you have something to say.. spit it out.. and stop the nonsense of suits, and leaks, and what not to keep your names in the newspapers..

Stop it.. If you have something to say.. Just say it..

I get up and bring up the computer and there is Boehner.. going to sue the President story again.. And it was the first thing that came to my mind!! Spirit of my Dad I guess..

where I use that phrase nowadays, seeing as how I live in Colorado.

For me, "Fish or cut bait!" is much safer.

I do agree with your sentiment. That said, The View would make a huge mistake in hiring Sarah Palin. They need to hire Palin and Boehner. Totally commit or take a hike!

That one just came flying me this morning I am just reading that about the view hiring Palin possibility.. the more that woman talks, the more she ties herself up in knots..
