"I know Tom is a conservative,...."

Tom Hanks a conservative? That's not the impression I had - I was under the impression he was as liberal as his good buddy Speilberg. You sure about that?

[ozaukeemom]

I think you mean Tom Selleck. :)

[Signalman]

Tom Hanks is a conservative? Not the last time I checked. I thought he was a flaming lib.

My GGrandfather, Grannies side, lot a fortune in the Panic of ‘96. On the bright side my Grandfather, Born 1886, hated TR, absolutely loathed the man, taught me politics.

Interesting the boarded-up factories with the broken windows in the top left corner of the banner, “Gone Democratic.” Looks exactly like Detroit today, 50 years Democrat.

It’s called “redefining” Conservatism, an effort that is continually in progress and being aided by the GOP candidate, Mitt Romney.
