4. No, I read all of that yesterday and it will all be swept under the rug.
I'm sure that Bolton will get the job and continue his weekly trips to the "XXX anal" section of his neighborhood video rental store.

5. considering that he may have forced his wife to fuck other men
while he watched/got fucked, I'd say that this conservative Christian is full of shit.

It's disgraceful and totally yucky, why are all these neo-cons such twisted sex freaks.
