One Comment on “ Ocean State Action fundraiser, tonight ”

  1. I can’t believe an empty suit fop like Sheldon Whitehouse could say anything worth hearing.He is the living exemplar of upward failure-a snobby,incompetent,”to the manor born” loser reeking of “noblesse oblige”.Couldn’t protect a 15 year old witness from gutter variety criminals.
    Its too bad Stan Israel,a man I probably wouldn’t share political opinions with,but a patriotic American and a decent labor leader has to share the same room with him.
