The voters have spoken and now they must be punished, unmercifully. Much the same way I feel about any other state that elected a Repug guvnor and state legislature.

Good thing that the Annapolis crowd will tell Gov. Hogan to piss up a rope.

Every politician deserves a little time with a piss soaked length of one inch hemp across the withers. Keeps 'em honest...
