Penny For Your Thoughts?

Submitted by ub on

If Darwinism is real, it might be a matter of time for the GOP, as the Republican Convention approaches and The Donald's superego continues to demand attention 24/7 from the media.

Nobody seems to know what this guy is thinking, and the person most expected to be his VP pick may not be his chosen one.

The deadline is lunchtime today for penny for your thoughts Pence, who faces a high noon deadline in Indiana for filing for gubernatorial re-election. If he misses that, his political future wont be worth a pence. As The Donald would say... You're Fired!

ROAD RAGE

What ever happened to going on a quiet leisurely drive? I was driving the speed limit along shore read and saw two stupid idiots speeding past me along a curve and not following the solid line rule of law. Don't they know that aggressive driving accounts for more than half of all traffic fatalities?

Eight out of 10 drivers surveyed by the AAA Foundation’s annual Traffic Safety culture Index rank aggressive driving as a “serious” or “extremely serious” risk that jeopardizes their safety.

GOP No-Shows

Submitted by ub on

An increasing amount of Republican Party elders is deciding not to attend the big party. US Senators John McCain, Lisa Murkowski and Steve Daines will steer clear of their convention to show the GOP establishment's discomfort with presumptive nominee Donald Trump.

The Donald has singlehandedly managed to piss off too many Republicans and the list just keeps on growing.

The United Nations has handed a serious rebuke to PRC for its claim to the South China Sea.

Social media is telling China to get out. But Beijing may have different plans and rejected an international tribunal ruling that its claims to rights in the South China Sea have no legal basis.

POLITICALLY POOR PAUL

Submitted by ub on

The Speaker of The US House of Representatives apparently speaks only for himself. He says something one way and then gets no respect or support the next day.

Paul Ryan spoke against the GOP candidate and now he's going to speak on his behalf. Paul puts his foot inside his mouth all too often. He has lost his clout and is not "Politically Poor Paul."

Paul Ryan will be walking a tightrope at next week’s GOP convention, Gerald F. Seib writes http://on.wsj.com/29IlqAn via @WSJ
