The only issue that the GOP will have is Benghazi and so they should hold their convention there.

They could meet the people they hate and demonize at every opportunity. Maybe Ryan could wash a few clean pans between intros.

Won't Smaug be blowing some rather hot air in that direction this summer?

He's definitely a Republican supporter: rich from conquest, can't stand to part with any of it, bigoted about other races, etc. and too smart to run himself.

I've always felt that the proper comeback after that gipper stupidity was to name the Blue Plains Wastewater Treatment plant (on the other side of the Potomac) the Bush Sewage Disposal system. Who knows, maybe Jeb will also be able to flush his stuff there in a couple of years.

80. Don't forget how the pubs forced metro to pay for the cost of updating all the metro
Sat May 3, 2014, 08:10 AM
May 2014

Maps and signs for the entire system to reflect the new name. Another unfunded mandate by the GOP which if memory serves it cost Metro close to a million and Metro refused to do it unless the GOP paid for it the GOP turned around and threatened to basically shut down the system if Metro did not update the signs out of hide.

DCA will always be known as National Airport to me no RR in the name.
