There is a 'mystery speaker' on the schedule for Thursday night at the convention. Maybe Sarah Palin or General Petrayus?
I thought Ann Romney was awesome (better than some angry jerk who says she's never been proud of her country), and I thought Chris Christie was pretty good. |

It's going to be nice to have a lady in the white house instead of that we have now.
I thought Ann was great.

You and Jim are both very classy!
I did hear part of Christie's speech. He didn't mention that he didn't want to be Romney's VP b/c he didn't think he could win and that NJ's unemployment rate was higher than when he took over and that their rev. is down even thought he promised it would be up due to tax cuts.
Didn't the Ohio governor take credit for the Ohio recovery even though both he and Romney were against the auto bailout. |

That doesn't matter. Only 1:10 (or was it 1:8?) Jobs in Ohio are related to auto industry in some way..... |

PaulS, I didn't know you were privvy to those discussions. That's pure speculation. But I'm stating fact when I say that Michelle said she wasn't proud of her country. |

Most of all of our postings are speculation, conjecture, falsehoods, hyperbole and outright distortions

Yup - exactly. Talking about the Pres. wife. I've never seen it done until the last 4 years with such anger except the very extreme fringes - I guess that is what the Rep. party has now moved to.
I'm always thankful I was raised to never have the hate I see here - your comment, Jim calling her a jerk, other people calling politicians POS - all classless. |

I'm blushing just reading it......I heard tomorrow she's going to have pictures of her making Donuts AND Crullers in the same photo....doesn't get more suggestive than that....I bet the Cruller is Chocolate too...
Its an online Women's Magazine for God's Sakes....and she's talking about parenting and Family.

Interesting how you'd call a very fit women a "fat ass" in the same breath as accusing her of a lack of class.
Just sayin.

Yup, refreshing. Good to hear people who are inspiring, not dividing everyone
into a group or class.
With Christie, what you see is what you get. Nobodies lunch meat, see and admit the tough problems and get them fixed. Musta scared some people. |
