Where was the plaintiff wailing about the "dysfunctional broken Congress" exactly two years ago when Pelosi and Reid refused to pass a budget, raise the debt ceiling and raise taxes after spending trillions so they could deliberately manufacture a national crisis with the victorious Republican House which continues to this day?

Larry: I agree we need something far better than "Milk Cliff." I already gave John "Udder Disaster" on the air, and of course, he failed to give it its due. So I submit the following:

Liter Hosing

Gallon Distress

Quantitative Cheesing

...and, of course, I apologize.
