She is among the most hateful and partisan of the washed up Republicans left on the hill and, if you remember the first cast of Saturday Night Live, she sounds just like Roseanne Rosanna Danna.

What would you do if The President of the USA called up to you? Probably, all of us in such cases would tell him some sort of this: “Yes, Mr. President. I understood, Mr. President.

Ileana Ros-Lehtinen didn’t and TWICE! Can you believe it? Read Full Story
