In reply to the discussion: Another scandal? Surely not.... [View all]southerncrone
(5,510 posts)83. Getting the feeling there's something fishy in Tampa...
I've felt all along the Repugs were going to pull another fast one. Now w/Hurricane Issac approaching they are opening the convention but then "suspending it" until probably Tuesday.
There are quite a few long-time & powerful Repugs who are not in attendance.....specifically the BFEE (except Jeb) & Cheney. Others are Palin, John Huntsman, and Ron Paul.
Ron Paul supporters are very upset over his treatment, even tho his son is scheduled to speak.
Just feel something BIG is going to happen, why would the latest Repug Presidents & VP not be there, that is suspicious to me. Especially since Cheney has his new heart & all.
Maybe it's just my Scorpio paranoia......

There's a GD thread on the 'poison pill' in a file that would be released if he were jailed.

Unwise, considering the 'poison pill' was to be released upon his death or arrest by associates.

I'd rather have him alive and free, than any money that bet would bring.

A deafening silence here, too. In 2008, I was blasted, bombarded, smacked every day

So true. That's why I keep telling people it's not really about politics at all...

I agree, and that "14%" was manipulated, and as of yet we haven't seen full disclosure.

I agree, and by "full disclosure" I meant we've not had whole returns, apparently piece meal is how
