Careful With The Word "Only"


If you've ever seen Mimi Coffey's billboards, you might get a kick out of this.

BG,

I work for Mimi. Those senators had their mind made up on this and did not want to listen to any disseting views. That hearing was a joke.

The entire bill was written by some Christian activist. He was at the meeting also and was completely ridiculous.

Always liked crusty curmudgeon Senator Whitmire (the chair). Haven't always agreed with him, but like and respect him.

Patrick, on the other hand, is another jerk with good hair. ALWAYS plays to the audience. Has the analytical ability of an Etch-a-Sketch.

Dammit, I never heard of this woman and she got my dander up in a split second. Good for Senator Patrick!!! He responded to her rediculous, disrespectful, slurred speach perfectly. "Only" 14000 people killed by drunk drivers - the nerve of this b**ch!! I would like just 5 minutes alone with her. She might never socially drink again.
Naw I really wouldn't harm her; but I could certainly slap her face and throw a bottle of wine on top her head!!
I was also horrified by the laughter all around the room - one person even said I'll drink to that after her rambling. Reminded of my jury duty at Wise County. It was a drunk driver too.
WTF is wrong with people today?

A perfect example of why ALL lawyers are held in such low regards, right after used car salesmen.

Dan Patrick is a hypocritical showboating clown who is so insecure he won't let this girl respond . . .

I'll be willing to bet Dan Patrick gets busted for DWI in the near future!

That freaking woman did not deserve a response!!! I don't care what Patrick does in his life, but is was correct to give her a tongue lashing. If I were her I don't think I would ever speak in public again. She is the showboater; and she needs to find another cause.

There are about 14,000 people plus afected friends and relatatives that might have a different opinion 5:27.She has to be a classless bitch to even make that statement.Small wonder that lawers are reviled!

I just love the way that old windbag preaches to her how she is the devil and then tells her not to comment. He had his say, but she just needs to die and go away. Good sence of fair play on his part!!

Fair play, really 9:47
Discussing drunk driving in a court of law has nothing to do with the word "play". SHE had her say, he then had his said. She did not need another say,period, dot.
Windbag preaches? I guess you think what she says is perfectly fine? If so, then you must be a drinker or a lawyer. She is working for the devil, that is clear. He would surely be on her side.

That was a mighty shiny soapbox Senator Trumphair was on. That will look good in his next TV ad.

Keep up the good work Mimi!

Working for the Devil? You religious nutbags are... well.. nutbags.

The sweet little 8 pound 6 ounce newborn Baby Jesus told me to tell you that.

If it were her mother or her child that was killed by a drunk driver, would she say, Oh well, it was only my son..... it was only my mother?
Some people are so selfish they cannot think of what others suffer. Possibly because they are too selfish to even try to think of others!
Yea for the senator!

Mimi needs to ride along one night with an office or EMT crew and experience small mangled children gasping for their last breath because someone drinks beer and then drives home, and then walks around the accident scene in a drunken state saying "hey, y'all....wazzup? Hey, man! Wazz goin on? Cool. Hey. Be cool man! True."

Thank you 8:01 and 8:15 for stating how it really is when people drink and drive.
Why does the law allow people to go to restaurants and bars to drink, knowing that only one drink may put a small person over the limit?
I do not understand!!!

Id like to give her a tongue lashing... @ 8:15 have you seen this?

Anonymous said...

I totally agree with the senator. What if it were only her mother or father or maybe only her child that was killed. When you talk about the deaths of people you need to remember no matter who you are speaking about they had a family and someone loved them.... even the most monstrous people.

December 21,2012 a tongue lashing will be the last of anyone's worries.

On December 21 2012 there will be no tongues left to lash.

6:39, from the way you wrote your remark, I'd say you are definitely "partaking of the drink."
......and your drink sure shows because your spelling is atrocious!

6:39 thanks for drinking in your house, not the road. It is your choice to drink and risk your health; but, thanks for not driving while drinking.
