"I am now sorry I voted Republican"

The Obama’s party like it’s 1999. The rest of the country can get f*cked.

Keep it up, a-hole. We are all watching and we are getting ready.

Only 3 identifiable Republicans (and their spouses)—and two of them are RINOs (Bobby Jindal, Richard Lugar, Colin Powell). Conceivably there are other Republicans among those invited because they are Indian-Americans (and Michelle didn’t realize that they were Republicans).

It’s vegetarian if the evening “news” is to be believed. The table coverings were in the colors of the national bird of India.......the peacock. Well at least they didn’t offer kobi beef! I suspect that veggies are less expensive!

LOL save me the reading did Oprah make it?

I see the MSM and some Hollywood were wooed.

Best Look goes to Speaker Nancy Pelosi who when Robin Givhan asked her “Is your gown Armani?”…Pelosi shot her a disapproving stare and rolled her eyes a bit–i.e. Pelosi to Givhan: Drop Dead. (No answer to Givhan’s follow up question which was “What was that look?!”)
