I hope the young people keep speaking out. “This isn’t a student strike, it’s the awakening of society.” Days of Rage: The Quebec Student Protest Movement and the New Social Awakening » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 8:34 pm Funkie, do you think they had to super enforce that platform for Christie? For his big head and his big everything else. » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 8:27 pm “Don’t you know we pay taxes near zero.” » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 8:25 pm Murph, I watched part of it on Current. They kept inserting the truth to all their lies and when those speaking got so far out there on lies, they said, “Enough of this!” and broke away and started tearing into the lies. With them I could watch more than without them. » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 8:22 pm All these speakers say nothing about Romney and his qualifications because they are too busy campaigning for themselves and the 2016 election! I wonder how Mitt feels listening to them all toot their own horns. » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 7:46 pm The Current Channel has a great coverage of the Republican Convention. Love their commentary on each speaker. They also follow each with the facts. » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 7:08 pm I had to turn away when cross-eyed Scott Walker got up there and crowed his win! Ick, ick! » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 6:04 pm Okay, now I see why the Romney’s brought up shopping at Costco. I think it is going to take a whole lot more than shirts to get these guys at your convention, Mitt. Costco co-founder Jim Sinegal to speak at Democratic National Convention Sinegal, who retired as CEO in January, was named a convention speaker Friday along with CarMax co-founder Austin Ligon. The pair of business leaders will “make the case for why President Barack Obama should keep command of the U.S. economy,” according to a Democratic official quoted by The Associated Press. » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 5:58 pm KT, Mormon wives certainly do! » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 5:36 pm KT, my finger is down my throat! Ick! » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 5:35 pm KT, you may be on to something. They certainly deserve each other. » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 5:34 pm Ah, I read it. I don’t watch their show for several reasons and those include Joe! » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 5:33 pm Well, I would have to take Cruella de Vil side if Donald Trump had the nerve to comment on her hair! Regardless of who the woman is, Donald Trump is a low and despicable garbage of a man. The only woman that would go for him is one going for the money that he doesn’t really have. » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 3:32 pm [img]http://www.truthdig.com/images/cartoonuploads/lk082412dAPR-romney-medicare-plan-500.jpg[/img] » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 3:05 pm Donald Trump: Arianna Huffington Is Ugly, And I Get Why Her Husband Left Her For A Man Read more: http://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-arianna-huffington-is-ugly-2012-8#ixzz24sZEYM16 » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 2:35 pm Sure its not a Minstrel Show, AdLib? 😉 » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 2:02 pm Okay, I have to make a comment to Mitt the all American guy wearing Costco/Kirkland shirts. I am sure he is like several other very rich gentlemen that I use to work with that also “shopped” at Costco. They bought shirts and yes, socks at Costco in bulk. They wore them once and threw them away after. Yup, that is all American to them. Not to the rest of us that would wash and wear them until they fell apart. Of course, Mr. and Mrs. Romney didn’t tell that part. (Oh, and by the way, several of those rich gentlemen in my past were Mormon.) Just had to make this comment as it always bothered me when they would tell me this. Smart-asses they are! 🙂 » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 1:59 pm Sorry, AdLib, she claims to be a Democrat but apparently a Blue one. “Since the program’s inception, Brzezinski has appeared as co-host and news reader on MSNBC’s morning program, Morning Joe,[6] alongside Joe Scarborough and Willie Geist. Her father is a frequent guest. On Morning Joe, Brzezinski pointed out that she is a Democrat and her co-host, Joe Scarborough is a Republican.[7]” » Posted By SallyT On August 28, 2012 @ 1:40 pm Mika is worthless there and she is suppose to be the Democrat representative???? She contributes nothing. My opinion. » Posted By SallyT On August 27, 2012 @ 11:53 pm I love how these TV news people elevate themselves. I just watched Brian Williams on the Daily Show. He was telling Stewart how the American people are really tried of these dirty campaigns and the attacks. Yah right, Brian! You love it! In fact you people are who feed it! He said that the people are just not into any of this. Really? That has to bugged the hell out of all of you! How do you keep people watching your bull crap? You might start by reporting the truth. He said that both campaigns are guilty of low attacks. I don’t think so, Brian. Anyway, the point I am trying to make is that he tried to sound as if he was above those running for President. Maybe Romney. But, regardless Brian Williams, Stewart, and all the others are loving this campaign and the attacks. If it is a slow day, they add fire to the lies to keep it going. Just my thoughts. » Posted By SallyT On August 15, 2012 @ 11:44 pm Now that I can believe! » Posted By SallyT On August 11, 2012 @ 7:56 pm Hey, Sherlock, I have a few cousins I would rather kick in the ass than kiss, too. 🙂 » Posted By SallyT On August 11, 2012 @ 7:54 pm Romney raises over $1.2 million after Ryan VP announcement Romney spokeswoman Andrea Saul posted a message on Twitter announcing the campaign raised more than $1.2 million in the four hours since Romney announced Ryan as his VP pick at a rally in Norfolk. “Donate $15 today to help restore America’s greatness and build a stronger middle class,” the email read. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/romney-raises-over-1-2-million-ryan-vp-165918440.html Oh, Bullshit! A million of it, I bet, came from the Koch Brothers! » Posted By SallyT On August 11, 2012 @ 12:55 pm The call of the wild always brings the pups running home! Wonderful news. You enjoy your happiness! » Posted By SallyT On August 11, 2012 @ 12:39 pm Why, I am surprised! Of course Ann Coulter has a man to provide for her. Look under her bra, there is hair on her chest! » Posted By SallyT On August 11, 2012 @ 12:37 pm I don’t know if this has already been posted, but I find this interesting. I have a feeling there might just be some truth in it. It’s Jon Huntsman Sr, right Harry? Harry Reid has a Republican source who has told him that Mitt Romney didn’t pay taxes in 10 years. Who could he possibly known that would have that information? Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman’s dad sounds like the likely source. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/08/09/1118428/-It-s-John-Huntsman-Sr-right-Harry » Posted By SallyT On August 11, 2012 @ 11:17 am Michael Tomasky on Romney’s Stunning, Terrible Choice of Ryan for VP Paul Ryan? Really? It’s a stunning choice. A terrible one too. By making it, Mitt Romney tells America that he is not his own man and hasn’t even the remotest fleeting desire to be his own man. He is owned by the right wing. Did I write a couple of weeks ago that Romney was insecure? Well—Q.E.D. Think of it: The candidate will be running on his vice president’s ideas! It’s a staggering thought. Ryan might as well debate Obama this October, and Romney can square off against Biden. So Democrats will have to be smart. They should show respect for Ryan for being a serious guy, but then just explain to people, urgently but not over-heatedly, what he’s proposed. It’s just very hard to imagine that middle-of-the-road voters want harsh future cuts to Medicare, massive tax cuts for the rich, and huge reductions to domestic programs that most swing voters really don’t hate. Does this choice work in Florida, with all those old people? If Romney just sacrificed Florida, he’s lost the election already. » Posted By SallyT On August 11, 2012 @ 5:52 am KT, yes we vote by mail. We also have drop-off spots, too, in case you are a last minute voter. Works very well. It has been very successful. Your ballot is mailed to you, under your name, you fill it out, it is put in an envelope that you sign on the outside that you are the person that the ballot was mailed to, and that goes into another envelope that is mailed. No voter fraud unless you are out stealing mail and getting the ballots before they are filled out. » Posted By SallyT On August 11, 2012 @ 3:19 am Paul Ryan???? He picked Paul Ryan!!!! WOW!! The Medicare Killer! Reports: Romney picks Paul Ryan as VP running mate http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/mitt-romney-announce-vp-pick-saturday-032140054.html » Posted By SallyT On August 11, 2012 @ 3:09 am Kes, I heard that they will bring the voting booth to your home if you are a Republican. 😉 » Posted By SallyT On August 9, 2012 @ 9:15 pmComments Posted By SallyT

“Don’t you know Mitt loves America so much he keeps his money off shore.”
Sinegal is a major Democratic donor and hosted Obama for a fundraiser at his Hunts Point home in June.
Jon Huntsman Sr, is business partners with Robert C. Gay, who also happened to be Bain’s managing director between 1989 and 2004. And if anyone knows the machinations Bain used to evade taxes for itself and its partners, well, it would be the guy in charge of the firm’s finances.
Huntsman is also a Republican and a Mormon (like Harry Reid). As governor of next-door Utah, his son (who also served in the Obama administration as ambassador to China) likely developed a close working relationship on regional issues.
Want more? The Huntsman family gave some serious scratch to Reid’s reelection campaign.
And why? To placate a party that doesn’t even want him as its nominee anyway. It’s psycho-weird. But at least it will carry the benefit, if this ticket loses, of keeping conservatives from griping that they lost because their ticket was too moderate. Conservatism will share—will own—this loss.
