I was voting for Palin, just as I will be voting for Ryan this time.
Oh, yes. VERY attractive.
Ban of farm kids working farms.
Middle class incomes down.
Only a couple of years ago Sam Olens was out Cobb County Commission Chairman. Now he addresses the nation at the GOP) Convention. First Larry McDonald, then Newt Gingrich and now Sam Olens breaks into the limelight.
Shows what we’re up against when some of these speakers are even allowed on stage.
What I’ve seen has largely been a bad mix of being back in kindergarten or listening to bad country music with lyrics that no one would buy an album of because it’s just too inane. The others should’ve taken public speaking and practiced in front of a mirror to avoid the mindless tics they exhibit. Best speech I’ve seen so far was the EX-DEM, with his lisp/marble mouth babble that no one in the room could understand (go back and watch it again).
I haven’t seen nearly enough people pissed off, demanding change.
Are our fellow citizens so brain dead that this qualifies as vote-winning entertainment? All this is doing is giving a bunch of moronic sound bites to those that would destroy the country to keep themselves in power.
For all his foreign policy "expertise", I can't recall a single conflict that McCain didn't want to get the U.S. involved in.
Very strange judgment from a former military man.
Similarly, McCain never encountered a problem that he thought couldn't be solved by a new government regulation.
Toughest vote I've ever made. Can't wait until he retires...
See? That’s EXACTLY my point. Amazing isn’t it?
Tell us how you really feel! ;-D
Yeah, as much as I'd like to believe he's happy to be there, I somewhat doubt it.
LOL! Agreed- he gave a very fine speech!
Yash Wad Wa. There’s a name you don’t hear every day.
My, aren’t you just a little ray of sunshine!/s
lol
Is that his name Tad True?
Interesting. Thanks, rodguy911.
Here’s another one on Sarah not being able to speak FNC exec. says its because of losing a day due to the hurricane.I say BS!!
These interviews remind me of a bad SNL skit. Sorry.
