And I'm pretty sure she didn't take a sip. LOL Debbie did make it a point to mention how much petroleum gets wasted each year unnecessarily bottling water in plastic.

In my opinion, Debbie Cook was articulate, concerned, and gave thoughtful answers that did not insult my intelligence. She displayed an earnest ability to reflect and a desire to problem solve. I believe she wants to work to make things better for our community and our nation. Dana Rohrabacher was a caricature. His “let’s take pork-chop hill” swagger played well in vintage RKO features, but has no usefulness in the 21st century. In retrospect, I found it ironic to see so much culture-warrior bravado from a draft-dodger. And how he blamed ‘illegal aliens” for EVERYTHING…except credit default swaps. It all started to sound very Area 51. BTW, I happen to agree with Debbie Cook on the “bailout”. While I am pissed as hell, allowing anger to govern critical financial decisions is not what is needed. Allowing Lehmann Bros to fail proved to be a disaster. The first bailout package had no accountability. The second was an improvement and something needs to be done besides political posturing.
