RNC convention open thread

[Listening]

Sure go ahead

Start by showing where businesses built any roads or bridges

Not a problem.

We'll go the easements they fund and the taxes they pay and you'll have your needs met.

Until then, you better call the suicide watch.......I've recommended it to several of my liberal friends (who are infinitely more aware than you) who know Obama is going under.

I hope they bring those columns back to remind everyone what a sales job he did on them in CO.

Is that your best?

You think the pittance that businesses pay in anyway pay for all the roads and infrastructure they benefit from?

I give you 12 hours to throw Romney under the bus after his substantial loss. That is about how long it took with McCain

Like you know what business pays ?

You don't have 12 hours to give.

 

[Listening]

What's bullshit about it, dumbass?

Aw, look...it's Synthia...another candidate for the suicide hotline.

Plenty asswipe.

Like the statements about unemployment for starters.

Next question ?

Was the stimulus 1/3 tax cuts or not?

Answer the question, asshole.

Yes, you were adopted.

Republican women: Rice, Romney, Martinez, Mia Love

What do Dems have? High Cheekbones?

Haha.. I cracked up at the Huck's line about Wasserman Schultz.. He heard a god-awful noise coming from the next door hotel room.. Then he realized it was just her practicing her speech for the DNC convention..

 

[djosepholmes]

The republicans tend to eat their own... Why is Bush not at the RNC ... Why no Palin? Just use them up and spit them out

[Sarah G]

Oh

My

God..

Marco Rubio is using teleprompters.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

So…

Tonight the GOP will nominate Mitt Romney, someone most don’t want, few are ‘excited’ about, and everyone knows is going to lose.

Credit republicans for at least going through the motions.

Oh no... they think they are going to win... They have to. Otherwise there was no point in what they did to the delegates. UNLESS of course they are TRYING to lose.

[teapartysamurai]

I'm here, whoo hoo!

Got Fox News and Cspan set up so I can flip back and forth from each, so I can, at least, watch it half the time in HD.

 

[teapartysamurai]

Okay, I don't mean to be cold hearted, (I'm watching Fox right now)

But how can this guy say Isaac caught them off guard and they weren't expecting this much flooding and rain.

They were warning people this was a slow moving track that could dump 12 inches of rain (an hour) or more. And they were warning them of that at least a day or two before it made land fall!

How can he say he was taken by surprise.

I'm in Ohio and I expected this Hurricane to be bad because of it's slowing moving track.
