Republican Elites

* I'm so sick of the Republicans saying they represent all the people of this country. According to the Toledo Blade, the Ohio delegation at the Republican convention has only 3 African-Americans. NJ.com reports that the New Jersey delegation has no African-American delegates.

* While you are sitting in your home trying to figure out how you are going to put gas in your car, the Ohio Republican delegates at their convention "..... snacked on smoked salmon and drank martinis poured over an ice sculpture while cruising the Mississippi River. On Monday, they nibbled on mini lamb chops and dipped cherries in chocolate fountain as a jazz band played at the historic Landmark Center in downtown
St. Paul...... "
(Dayton Daily News).

* I've thought of a great bumper sticker:

I Can't Afford to Vote for a Bank Lobbyist for Congress---
Just Say No to Stivers
