The DNC "abortion fest" starts today, which is going to reveal to Americans paying attention the obvious differences in the values and Principles of the two major parties.
The GOP convention featured dozens of exciting speakers of all ethnicities, backgrounds, and superb accomplishments! Especially the women, such as NM governors Susana Martinez, Mary Fallin and Nikki Haley, Condoleezza Rice, Senator Kelly Ayotte, and congressional candidate Mia Love, whose parents immigrated from Haiti, and who graduated from the Univ. of Hartford and is now a mayor in Utah (as well as mother of 3 children)! Here is a link to her rousing and patriotic 5 min. speech last week, challenging Obama that "Mr. President, the American people are awake; and we're not buying what you are selling!": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lfop5TeDnZo&feature=plcp http://www.youtube.com/user/gopconvention2012/videos (links to all other speeches and other events)

Rosa DeLauro [DNC speech]: “America’s women still make just 77 cents for every dollar men earn.” REALITY: “The Paycheck Fairness Act… is based on a misapplied statistic, that women earn 77 cents on a man’s dollar. This is true when comparing all women’s wages with all men’s wages, but not when comparing men and women with the same experience in the same job. The 77 cent statistic combines men and women who work in different jobs with different numbers of hours.” http://www.usnews.com/debate-club/should-the-senate-pass-the-paycheck-fairness-act/paycheck-fairness-act-is-based-on-a-misapplied-statistic Funny to hear DeLauro tout paycheck “fairness” since she’s never really had a job “but has grown financially fat by feeding off the body politic like an engorged tick on a basset hound. DeLauro has garnered millions from back-door deals, cronyism and insider-political-trading—while she portrays herself as a fighter for the downtrodden.” Wayne Winsley [who HAS worked for a living]: http://easthaven.patch.com/blog_posts/the-delauro-factor-e5065dcd

When will DeLauro debate Wayne Winsley? Or is she still planning to hide behind incumbency--and a nearly $1 million campaign war-chest--financed primarily by out-of-state, special-interest donors?

To clarify, they have 4 cats, and they're only able to take two of them, plus their 14 year old dog.Read More It was a struggle for them to even find a way to get the dog in the rental agreement, otherwise they would have tried to take them. :(

Sad that they had to leave these beauties behind. I'm sure they are heartbroken over it.

Please contact Forgotten Felines in Clinton. They are a no kill cat shelter. Offering "free toRead More a good home" pets is dangerous. There are bad people out there who take them and sell them to research labs or use them as bait in dog fighting. Please rethink this ad.

Is it still for sale? I might be interested in the dyer if your willing to separate the pair.
