Team Romneymobile is following Mitt Romney's "Every Millionaire Counts" bus tour, and is being met at each stop by MoveOn.org members who would be affected by Romney's economic policies that would rig the system further in favor of the 1%. And don't forget to look up, for airline banners that expose Romney as a candidate for President of the 1%, not President of the United States.
Now we know there's a full moon. Today, the leader of the Republican National Convention, Reince Priebus, set off a landmine of snark under his own chair by saying:
“If the Democrats said we had a war on caterpillars and every mainstream media outlet talked about the fact that Republicans have a war on caterpillars, then we’d have problems with caterpillars. It's a fiction."
Okey-Dokey Artichokey.
Of course, the Internets Went All Snarky.
Rachel Maddow had this picture up on her show tonight. I think it's just beautiful! Thank you, Reince Priebus, for giving women a new reason to vote for President Obama, and a new symbol of rebirth for the Democratic Party.
Yes, sometimes for my own good I stop reading about politics and go to my Happy Place.
Here's a YouTube video that should make anyone smile - a woman found a gathering of normally fierce creatures just chillin' on her back porch. Shot in the Aleutian Islands off the coast of Alaska. Note: You can see the Eagle's mate sitting on a light pole in the distance.
Update: I went to YouTube and had this exchange with the very nice woman who made the video.
From me:There's a message in there somewhere for this political season - why can't we all get along?
pla1554alaska : That's why I did the video to begin with! Actually I wanted to show
people that the animals all get along and aren't out to just kill each
other all the time! But I like your point, too! Why can't we all just
get along like this???
