Thanks and thank you for your contribution to FR.
What to watch?
Sarah or Nancy and Haley.

Bella Pelosi on TV in the daylight. I don’t think so! Show had to have been taped at night....vampirettes can’t stand the light of day!
Hello .... saw on Fox where Kremer, said Tea PArty people will be voting for GoP candidate no matter who it is. No third party. Must be she didn’t hear Sarah’s interview about the GoP better shape up.
I’m concerned about tea-party people who assume they speak for us. I won’t vote Romney under any circumstances.... and the democrates seem to think they can shape our candidate for us...Romney’s their choice for us. Really makes me angry how they are pushing Romney.
PLEASE! See post number 40.
Folks, the “Sunday Morning Bray” is a new feature here on the Sunday thread.
I am posting it for Bray, who is on the West Coast, so he doesn’t have to get up at O-Dark thrity to post it.
It is his genius that creates it.
I am but a humble transcriber.
I happened to hear a middle of the night replay of Brian Kilmead’s radio show, where he was seriously whining about how Sarah Palin “didn[’t play fair” by going to New Hampshire on the same day as Romney’s Big Announcement. It was a sickening hour, but it told me a lot about what is being said off-camera at Fox News.
Kilmead, the sports guy, doesn’t seem to recognize that Sarah is a hockey player, not a tennis player.
Thanks RG,
Mitt Rino is obviously going after the liberal states to win the nomination. He thinks he can win with MA, NY, IL, NJ, CA and perhaps PA to get the victory. Those state Tea Parties have to stop him.
Pray for America
Sarah Palin Up.
Yet another black mark on the blackboard for Ailes, giving Chris Wallass Tony’s show let us know who he really is and we don’t like it.
Going to try ABC,
Goolsbee isn’t the only one saying more than 2 million private sector jobs added in the last 14 months;

“That means over the last 14 months,” Obama said, “we’ve added more than 2 million jobs in the private sector.”

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney pointed out to reporters that April was the 14th consecutive month of growth in private sector employment, for a total of 2.1 million jobs
That clean/renewable energy farce doesn't work well in your boat, does it? Ethanol is killing everything mechanical and destroying food crops to boot!
Thank heavens there are refiners not putting ethanol in fuel. Saves our boat motors and muscle cars!
1) Reduce the size of the federal government headcount by somewhere between 40 and 65%. The purpose of this would be to ensure that people on the payroll perform ESSENTIAL government services, not provide employment to professional box checkers who dot i’s and cross t’s.
2) Change the name of the Department of Defense to the Department of War. We need to recognize the purpose of that department, which is to kill people and break things when it serves our national purpose to do so. Nation building is not a national interest; for example, most people born and raised in Afghanistan do not know how to work indoor plumbing, so rebuilding that country means taking 2 stones and piling them on top of a 3rd stone, so it looks like it did before the Russians invaded it 30-some years ago.
3) Along with #2, repeal the Presidential Wars Act. This would require that Congress does its job BEFORE we spend blood and treasure in extended military actions. The last time Congress did its job in this function was in 1942. Since then we have allowed the political types to avoid actual votes of consequence and drag us down into the minutiae of details and avoid the purpose of having a 3-branch form of government in the first place.
4) Real tax reform; use the 1970 Illinois State Income Tax form as a role model. The entire tax form fit on one side of an 8 ½ by 11 inch sheet of paper, and all the instructions fit on the back side. And the printing was large enough that anybody could read it. If anybody wants to change the wording, the number of words removed would have to at least equal the number of words added.And every word in the instructions would have to be recognizable and understandable to a person who reads English at the 4th grade level.
The details of what is on the form are not as important as the need to recognize that the purpose of a tax is to fund government spending, not provide a tool for social engineering.
5) Make it a requirement that congress cite the specific provision of the US Constitution that authorizes any law they want to pass.
Wallace leads with a question about the economy.
Sarah starts hitting hard with specifics, looking directly into the camera, slapping down Obama hard, occasionally damning him with faint praise.
Wallace: What would “President Palin” do to turn around the economy?
Are you insinuating that its not right to pay postal clerks ungodly sums for an $8.00 an hour job when unemployment is in reality nearing 20%? What a radical you must be!!
I share your distrust of the clean/renewable energy farce and when you analyze it you come up with just another regime slush fund for liberals to enrich themselves without really accomplishing anything.

When a substitute for oil/gas/coal becomes affordable and accessible, the public will switch. How many people still have 8-track cassettes, or use whale oil for lamps, or send messages by Western Union.
End All Energy Subsidies could become a powerful campaign battle cry.
Romney says whatever he needs to say to be popular...and satsify those who pull his strings. That’s why he always comes off as if someone else is writing his script...because they are.
Compared to Obama Romney just has the zipper on his wolf mask tighter on his face....but a wolf in sheeps clothing nonetheless.
“What President Palin would do”
Has a nice ring!
