Feel free to review any of the hundreds of slaughter threads here on COTH...just type "horse...

County, I actually admire and respect your for your candor. While I disagree with you on a number of things, I do respect you for always holding your cards out for everyone to read.

Jswan,

Stop "obsessing over you?"...hmmm, me thinks it is the other way around.

Why would you make a statement indicating that "Gail's groups" were responsible for removing inspectors from the...

The best post of this entire thread...mine included!! I think that about covered it!

Damage control, County? On what level? The IL bill is basically a done deal. I really dont see any damage that needs controlling. Sorry if that disappoints you.
