I didn’t know that Neil Cavato has MS, although I knew he’s had health issues, bless his heart.

[Marathoner]

You don't know what it's like to live in a state where you are outnumbered by liberals by at least two to one, do ya.

Hey, I hear ya loud and clear over here in the People's Democratic Socialist Republic of Illinois, forever to be known as the launching pad for Barak Hussein Obama (UM UM UM).

[PAR]

Yes she’s a little out of her league but I am more than happy to put up with her because she is a true believer. Hope she grows into the job.

[Irish Eyes]

Yes, he called her a “corporate wife” and said “She looks like a woman who’s husband takes care of her.”

And that dear Juan is LOVE.

[West Texas Chuck]

Hey, if you are motivated by that, get out there and whoop it up.

I for one am embarassed. We are screwed, even if we win. I want proud Conservatism, but we got none of that tonight.

[advertising guy]

I wouldn’t piss in Nooner’s ear if her brain was on fire

[GGpaX4DumpedTea]

“Idiot Juan Williams...”

Juan Williams is an ignorant PONS, and wears knee pads in the Oval Office when he visits the Mulatto-In-Chief.

[FourtySeven]

Shep is on now comparing Isaac to Katrina.

I’m done. Nite!

[KansasGirl]

Megyn says, “Juan William’s standing did not improve with women tonight.”. LOL

[Mr. Binnacle]

"Corporate Wife" - What an insult by Juan Williams. Like there are no hardships or stresses in a corporate family. Heck, many of the most successful businessmen I know have shipwrecks on the home front - multiple divorces, kids on drugs/alcohol and other problems.

Most have no idea what a great accomplishment it is to raise a close, loving family in a corporate environment. Ann Romney is as accomplished here as her husband is in the business world.

It's always greener on the other side of the fence.

[Irish Eyes]

She looks tanned.

LOL...yup she is here in Arizona.

[tina07]

yep, the drama queen himself...

[milagro]

Yep! (Love the “Nooner”!:)

[West Texas Chuck]

Well, that is one way of looking at it.

I guess. If you hate the Tea Party.

[GGpaX4DumpedTea]

I am also a Chuck, and your assessment makes me want to puke. Obviously you do not understand English. Get a life, and leave us alone. Go ahead, vote for Barry, he diserves you support.

[Clint N. Suhks]

C-SPAM repeat.

Ann, “this man will not fail”.

[patriot08]

[Miss Didi]

What a gorgeous pic—thanks for posting!

[Clint N. Suhks]

Yep, Peggy is Funked!

[thesearethetimes...]

Lol, DEFINITELY my kind of Statesman. His respect before love theme was right on it. Also, always preferred teachers who understood that being my friend was not in their job description ; )

I’m just funny like that :)

Dear Lord, give us strength. We have a LOT of work to do.
