And replacing Wasserman with Stephanie Cutter. LOL! They are so alike, it's not funny.
Glad when all of this is over. The worst part is that no matter how Romney, if elected, turns out, I will never respect what they did in the primaries and Convention. It was criminal. "The ayes have it" will forever play in my head like a bad song.

It is just as ridiculous of the Ryan campaign to do this as it was for Michelle to invite all these chefs to the White House pretending they were using food from her garden when, in fact, it was fake. They had the vegetables brought in. lol
Such an insane life in politics. They all hurt our country and it's people more than anyone.

The Post later updated its story to note that Antal, who self-identifies as an independent, has voted in Democratic primaries for the last 17 years.

Brian J. Antal, the group's president, told The Washington Post after the visit that Ryan and campaign aides had "ramrodded their way" into the soup kitchen without seeking his permission first. He suggested the visit could jeopardize the group's donor base or its nonprofit status as a faith-based organization.

About as happy as you were to report on the bad photo-op to begin with.

Yea, it works now since we actually know the dishes were set aside for the cameras later. They all have their idiotic moments. We just have to live with, I guess.
We are just getting our post debate radio program going. I will have to talk about this, you know.

Okay, last post on this subject, but Jon Stewart is just too hilarious! He always gets to the point.

Great. Now I've gotten bogged down in Jon Stewart videos.

Re: Paul Ryan's fake charitable soup kitchen photo
Hey, give the couple a break, a little charity work.....
Bless their heart!
Of course it is a sham, they are all politicians.
If Obama would have thought of it he would have been down there serving chicken in a white apron and a chefs hat. They are just mad because it was not them.
