Why is it always DEMS who are expected to alleviate the pain of the screaming faces of the leopard-eaten??

Oh, the completely republican-controlled government fucked up air travel and retail sales for the holidays? Can't have THAT, better start calling our DEM REPS and 'express our great concern'.

Fuck that, have the day you VOTED FOR and then call Thune.
