Hey, are you related to Choo-Choo Charlie? He was an Engineer, too! What's your problem, Soldier? No enemy to fight, so now you pick on women?

LOL.....I love women! I'm not the biggest fan of Palin, but I would vote for her in a heartbeat over another G.W. Bush or John McCain.

I love it that Rush makes so much money, because it makes the left so mad.

I love capitalism and that Rush makes a ton of money too. But, Rush isn't making money from the GOP or Tea Party, he instead donates to those causes. Let's say that I really, really, really wanted Ron Paul to be president. Would I charge his campaign $100,000 to speak on his behalf or would I speak for free while donating my max allowable limit to his campaign? I just thought it looked tacky to be paid to speak what you believe to a movement attributed to you.

Well, when you give your local party, and have to find all the upfront money to pay for a location, security, insurance, equpiment, portapotties...don't hire Sarah to speak. I look forward to you making it happen. I happen to be grateful to the organizers and speakers for making Nashville happen.

And since I know how hard everyone had to work, I don't have much respect for idle detractors taking potshots. I even suspect they might have other motives than a huffy indignation over expenses.
