I read some of the most obscure names in the GOP.
Artur Davis, the ex democrat stands out.

Missing is the most dynamic speaker and most dynamic voice in the Republican Party. Mitt Romney is a piece of cow manure
for not inviting Sarah Palin. What an ass. What an ego maniac. He’s scared of being upstaged by Palin. Whether he wins or not, Romney and the rest of the RINO asses that control the party should be ashamed of themselves for the way they have treated this woman. It’s sickening.

Giving prayers and benedictions is a Catholc, a Sikh,
a Greek Orthodox and Jewish rabbi. Is Romney ashamed of his
faith?

Trump was offered a speaking slot and he declined. But, he says he has a big surprise for the Convention that everyone is going to love. ???????? Dunno; wait and see.

I love Sarah, but she pissed off Romney when her educational bus tour crashed his big Iowa announcement. Sarah should have never done that.

I don't think so. But I would be ashamed if I make a snarky remarks without doing my homework first. Ken and Priscilla Hutchins.

Do we know for certain he did not invite her? Or is it possible she was asked and declined?

At least one good thing might come of Isaac. Looks like the remains of it will hit Missouri and hopefully break the terrible drought we’ve been in all year.

Your sentence took me a moment to absorb. Obama himself is an impersonator and he is laughable in a sad kind of way.
He is purported to be black as well.

Start Debt Clocks

I don’t like that. What is that about? To Show that both parties can’t stop spending? That is weird. When we had all three President, House and Senate, the Republicans spent like there was no tomorrow. Out of everything on the schedule, this is what I personally would take out if I was in charge.
