LOL. I do better behind the scenes.

And a very fine job at that.

You’re right! It is! Great comparison. It would be fun to see those two famous photos side by side!

“LOL. I do better behind the scenes.”

Hey thats my line. As you know I rarely post in public but private you can’t shut me up. :)

[onyx]

LOL. I meant, I love to work “in” campaings for others.
I used to be very good at it. I might get back into on a serious basis. It all depends on what Sarah decides.

LOL @ Clyde5445.
We maintain an ongoing conservasation...lol.

“You’re right! It is! Great comparison. It would be fun to see those two famous photos side by side!”

Yes it would. Maybe one of our more talented Freepers will provide one. LOL. Mussolini was my first thought the first time I saw that snooty stance with the chin sticking out. Do you think he maybe practiced it in a mirror to make sure he looked authentic? LOL.

The two side by side have been posted several times here before. I never thought to save the photos, but a quick search of "obama + mussolini" gives ya a gold mine...lol. Here's just one.

Thanks onyx. Hmmmmmmm. Remarkable resemblance doncha think?

However, campaigners for greater participation by women of all stripes in politics would like to see more variety in the Republican sisterhood.

"There isn't really a place for moderate Republican women on the national scene at the moment, which is a shame," said Erin Vilardi of the non-partisan White House Project. "To include more women the party needs to open up even more."

You mean like Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe? No thank you. They are two of the principal reasons the Republican Party is no longer in the majority.

It is a tectonic shift when the Telegraph is publishing positive articles about Sarah Palin. This is two days in a row! Wow.

That "Daily Telegraph woman", Maggie Thatcher, probably called 'em up and whispered in their ear. LOL.

Our current female leadership seems to have all of the backbone and none of the liberalism that infects the “good old boys”.

And it goes to show that we ‘white’ people are not racist, we are just selective in the political beliefs of our candidates. Charlotte took 61% of the GOP vote, she had 2 very ineffective white male opponents.

Pissant is greatly saddened..........

Ha ha! Thank you for that! Obama actually out does him in the snooty, arrogant, narcissistic pose.

“What a maroon!”
