Wasserman Schultz just finished mumbling on Megan show and oh Lordy! Besides sounding delusional, poor Debbie really looks terrible. She looks as if she has gained forty lbs! She has that 'fat face' look now. I'll bet she is chewin too much bacon now with her islamic pals!!!

[fieldmarshaldj]

Suggestions like that should be met with derisive gales of laughter. How ‘bout some “fairness” in California, giving the GOP a majority ? In Illinois, New England, et al ?

[nopardons]

Yes, just finished seeing that and my eyes were crossing.

[Mr Apple]

He looks so skinny and his hands are so feminine signing those autographs.

When I first read your post here -it didn't hit me right away, but, you're right! (lol)

[nopardons]

You are a craven, puerile poltroon. Why are you SO afraid of saying who you are for?

Gird your loins, stiff upper lip and just post a simple answer.

Amen

[Mr Apple]

Someone needs to see how far he advanced communism and how well they followed Alinsky.

Yes...big time! Good post!

[GailA]

Have you totaled up her clothing bills yet? They make the vacations seem cheap.

We watched to Netfix movies...

Haley's speech was a waste of breath and free air time.

What gets me is how so many freepers are actually pleased with just about anything they hear from a type-B personality RINO like Haley as long as she's pleasant-looking, looks business-like, offends no one, spouts glittering generalities and mouths stale platitudes with a few mild criticisms thrown in.

If they found it a PC necessity to put a woman in this spot, isn't there ANYONE with a little feistiness, a little passion, some subtle but cutting humor and the ability to know how to use the stiletto when necessary?

Obama employed all these ploys in his speech...evidently the GOPe has no counterpart to put in front of a national microphone.

You are 100% correct; Nikki Haley gave an abysmal speech!

Sadly, the GOPE has had nothing but HORROR SHOWS giving the after addresses for quite some time! I'm now trying to decide which one of that lot has been the worst...Rubio is it, I think.

I'm shocked and disgusted at the FREEPERS, who should know better, but apparently don't, who LOVED Nikki and that GOD awful speech.

[Mr Apple]

Nikki is RINO.

Didn't realize this. Thanks.

Spot on! Haley disappointed me. She confirmed my thinking that she is one of those be nice to everyone, get along with everyone, type person. But with $20,000,000,000,000 national debt, and 94 million Americans not working, time has arrived to forget PC, and we now need a bulldozer, not a green energy bicycle.
