Anthony Weiner Explode The Congress And News

Posted: 30 Jul 2010 01:40 PM PDT


No one in the 111th Congress has, for example, crossed the Capitol to beat a colleague unconscious with a cane, as South Carolina Rep. Preston Brooks did to anti-slavery Sen. Charles Sumner of Massachusetts in 1851.

Anthony David Weiner (born September 4, 1964) is a Democratic member of the United States House of Representatives, representing New York's 9th congressional district since 1999. The district includes parts of southern Brooklyn and south central Queens. In Queens, the 9th includes the neighborhoods of Forest Hills, Maspeth, Fresh Meadows, Glendale, Howard Beach, Kew Gardens, Kew Gardens Hills, Middle Village, Ozone Park, Rego Park, Rockaway Beach, and Woodhaven. Its Brooklyn section includes, Gerritsen Beach, Marine Park, Midwood, Mill Basin and Sheepshead Bay.

Real-life Congress, as anyone who has ever been forced to watch C-SPAN knows, is a little bit different. The median age is 87, and debates usually focus on semi-abstract bits of congressional decorum.

Whatever their substantive objections to each piece of legislation Republicans oppose, their larger game plan is to render government ineffective in order to deny Dems victores, create a sense that government is broken and has failed to deliver, stoke anti-incumbent fervor, and ensure that Dems bear the brunt of blame for government dysfunction.

Donna Mccall Is getting Married With Eddie Munster‎

Posted: 30 Jul 2010 01:32 PM PDT


"He e-mailed me back with his cell phone number," McCall said. "I was really, really nervous when I called him. I felt like I was 10 years old again. He put me quite at ease. He handed the phone to his mom and I got to talk to her for a little bit."

Then a few years ago fate struck when Donna McCall managed to reconnect with Patrick and they met for the first time ever this year at DraculaCon II in Pennsylvania. Well it must have been love at first sight, because the two are now getting married!

Donna McCall who has a crush on him since he appeared in the 1960s TV show.
