Yeah, we all know that she does and has all that?

Seems rather childish to put it all into a badly photoshopped picture
to illustrate the obvious. More like a put-down then a compliment.

Maybe it wasn’t meant to be a compliment.

Try woman not man and you have brought a flyswater to a gun fight.
The third party wack jobs will only get 1 to 2%. If you think that is enough to beat in the 40+% you really prove you are delusional.

Your views are down the line with Obama.

EEUUWWW...Jesse Ventura’s speaking.

Had to check post #48 after not seeing Ventura on the schedule, thinking the whole time why would 2 Democrats be speaking at a Republican convention, now I’m feeling sorry for Ron Paul, having Ventura there is like hanging out with the Democrat Protesters outside the Republican convention

I’ve been a MAC user since the early 80’s, doing things it takes kiddies like you automatic programs to get ‘er done.

In my own business for 18 years and

Better luck next time.

I just hope to hear the words “small government” tonight. That would make me happy.

[I don’t have to prove anything to you.]

Nor do I. I’ve been here 8 years, have been asked by three Veteran’s Websites, here on Free Republic, to make graphics for them. I spend 8 hours to two days making my animations, cutting out, assembling, and painting pixel by pixel often. [nothing automatic but me]

I get pinged for graphics all the time so you are in the minority.

Look at my profile page and see what I do.
Your comments are rude, and here for everyone to see.

Your “big mac” profile page is bare.
bye

I been here long enough. I was referring to this particular picture not your whole life’s work.

I simple wanted to know if it was a compliment or a put-down of Palin. It is not one of your best works. Sorry.

Senator Amy Klobuchar D-Mn is on MSNBC trying to say Obama has been a leader, of course just leave out all of Obama’s ‘present’ votes, MSNBC viewers would never notice.

Amy, your old Democrat, Minnesota needs change to Fiscally Conservative Republican

They could have a poll asking “Should Republicans just go away?” and the results would be the same as the poll you posted.

Republican National Convention brings special trains, cars to St. Paul

ST. PAUL, Minn. - The Republican National Convention, being held at St. Paul’s Xcel Energy Center this week, has seen two Class I railroads bringing special business trains to the city along with private car movements. The cars are being used to entertain delegates and public officials during the convention.

Union Pacific brought by far the largest train, with 28 cars occupying two tracks adjacent to the St. Paul Union Depot. The train arrived in St. Paul Friday, Aug. 29, from the Democratic National Convention in Denver. UP installed special drainage and dust control systems in advance of the train’s arrival. Two SD70Ms powered the special.

Just west of the Union Depot on Canadian Pacific trackage, BNSF has parked its 11-car business train, which arrived early on the morning of Saturday, Aug. 30. BNSF built a special pavilion next to the train for entertainment purposes. On the head end is freshly painted ES44DC No. 7245. Both the UP and BNSF special trains are scheduled to depart on the evening of Thursday, Sept. 4, immediately after the convention concludes, with the UP train heading to Council Bluffs, Iowa, and the BNSF special to Topeka, Kan.

At Amtrak’s Midway Station, the Indiana Rail Road has brought in two private cars, former Santa Fe business car No. 56 and lounge car Mohave. They are coupled to three cars owned by the Friends of the 261: parlor car Wisconsin Valley, Super Dome 53, and Skytop lounge observation Cedar Rapids. Also at the depot is Patron Tequila Express, an ex-Gulf, Mobile & Ohio business car built in 1926 and owned by Patron Spirits Co., in which actor Dan Aykroyd is an investor.

Amtrak’s Empire Builder has been rerouted through St. Paul during the convention. Canadian Pacific’s Merriam Park Sub, which runs near the convention site and is used by Amtrak, has been closed during the event. To reach its Midway Station, the Builder is being rerouted over BNSF’s Midway Subdivision, which passes just east of downtown St. Paul. The Empire Builder used to travel this ex-Great Northern trackage as part of its regular route prior to the opening of Midway Station in 1978.

Amtrak is also in the mix in the event of an emergency. A special Amtrak train with six Amfleet cars bracketed by a pair of P42DCs has been stationed at Union Pacific’s Western Avenue Yard, which is just west of the convention site. It is staged for possible evacuations in the event of an emergency at the Xcel Energy Center.
