Romney has a solid history of problem solving and executive decision-making. He is remaining strong despite a grueling primary and months on the campaign trail.
He is the obvious choice to move this country forward and regain our economic stability.

That's great news!

No, the election day plank discussion was friendly...but the Israel debate wasn't too strident. Discussion was limited to 6 comments of 1 minute each, and everyone was pretty respectful. We were finished with the entire convention by noon!

a.) You don't name who called Andrew Breitbart a douche. Was it a person who has 15 million listeners daily?

b.) Andrew Breitbart was a conservative commentator who courted media attention and therefore, opened himself up for public opinion. Sandra Fluke is a citizen who testified before Congress. Hardly the same thing.

As unbelievable as it may be, I wouldn't be surprised to see Santorum win it. Midwestern Republicans like the churchy, anti-gay candidates as they demonstrated in 2008 by choosing Huckabee.

Woodward has NO BUSINESS teaching ANY child unless she's had extensive therapy for her very bad behavior in picking on and berating a little defenseless 5 yr old child who clearly has emotional and behavioral issues. You don't just talk to a small child that way! NEVER! This mean witch Woodward should stick to teaching in prisons or military!
She's the one needing help!

I was thinking that the other day. Who's to say the "not Romney" wheel wouldn't have landed on him at some point?

Looking forward for the Christmas Party!

What a wonderful plan. I'm sure it would balance out our financial Karma and it'd be all smooth sailing from here on out! (Plus everybody would love us Americans again!) :D

2011-07-14T15:56:55.073-05:00

Jeff,
This is your free market Democratic friend formerly of the Iowa legislature! I say formerly because we are both in recovery.
Of course we both use the Google search engine. Almost three-fourths of searches are conducted by Google.
I hear from small businesspersons, however, that all is not well in the internet search industry. Ask your own independent insurance agent or real estate agent if their businesses get a fair shake in the competition for customers. If they are not big enough, or if they don't have their own IT department to "enhance" their Google placement, they never get found as a result of an internet search.
It is no wonder that the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee is looking into the matter to see if open competition is being stifled. We should all let Senator Chuck Grassley of the Judiciary Committee know that this is a big deal, and that he should look into it.
Best Wishes,
Phil

So many people dismiss childrens art as scribbles. I have been drawing since the age of 4, started with shape people and now do full detailed portraits. People were an important subject for me so I stuck with it. I may not be famous but art bring joy to me and the subjects I draw.
This little girl is blessed that her youthful missims can be communicated through art. We lose the childhood prespective as we grow up, the engery and exsuberance fades. I think her parents are right to allow her to explore her creative side as long as she is exposed to other subjects too. Its a great possibility the interest she has now may wane. Bank the money for her art school education folks and let Aelita decide for herself in time.

2011-06-10T22:29:53.713-05:00

It seems to me that the Iowa caucuses may not be as big a factor in this next national election. Obama won and won his party's nomination, but McCain didn't do well in Iowa. Is Romney the only heavy hitter to be sitting Iowa out?
