What the hell was that on the House proceedings?
Edited on Thu Jan-18-07 04:27 PM by SharonRB
They just delivered a message to the House from the "President of the United States." And then they just kept going. What's that all about?

4. why do you rain sarcasm?
Seems to me that's just about right. At any rate, if you mean that as a joke, it's not really sarcasm. What was the message anyway?

6. simile? Now you really are yanking
my chain. ok, so my response was gnerdly. Go ahead and rain whatever supercilious, sardonic, sarcastic or any other metalanguage effects you are inclined to pull out of Dr Oz's black bag. I was just idling around anyway
