(6,907 posts)I remember in jr. high school in the 80s we had a typing class, and we had to type a letter to send to president Reagan.

(69,727 posts)as AG of Oklahoma-he was involved in looking over the internet to find a drug to execute a OK prisoner. It was the botched case in 2014.

Dems are staying up all night tonight to try to delay the vote. I am trying to find an article that she is talking about it.
