    I come not to trivialize Robin, but to celebrate her. Not to take away from her skills but to acknowledge her assets.

    Lara Croft ain't got nuthin on her.

    in leather, and now with more leather, and a smile.

    You go gurrl!

    I say that her heart is in the right place, and where was this kind of commitment four years ago?

    My best wishes and I will support this kind of thing with all of my soul.

    Is she married?

    Your text is confusing enough to qualify your congressman potential as 6 on the scale from 0 to 10.
