Jon Voight - CA
Actor Jon Voight is in Tampa for the Republican National Convention and said he's a fan of the city. "I like Tampa so far. The people are really terrific, and of course we’re seeing it in a very dramatic way. Thank God the hurricane didn’t hit here. We pray for the people who have to deal with it in New Orleans and that part of our country." The veteran actor is also a fan of GOP vice presidential pick, Paul Ryan: "He’s the only person in Congress that has taken on this debt crisis and this fiscal horror story that awaits us. And he’s done it quite gracefully. And what has the other side done, instead of working on a plan with him, they’ve demonized him. It’s stupid."

And what exactly is wrong with being a sarcastic ass? Much better to be a sarcastic ass than a pompous ass.

That would be great. Besides watching the Geckos shed their skin....we can watch the Republicans do the same!

When will people wake up and see that the Republican Party has become so ideological and hateful that its putting average Americans at great risk. You can either stay ignorant or you can stand your ground and tell them to go to he11.. If you're someone who still votes based on Republican or Democrat your way behind the times, please learn how to vote

Walt, perhaps they will learn the difference between "your" and "you're" at about the same time you learn the difference between "illiterate" and "ungrammatical."

Hi George,
Didn't you know Walt is famous, he was one of the original "old fart" hecklers on the muppet show. I'm not sure if he played Statler or Waldorf, last I heard both Statler and Waldorf were at an assisted living facility, but still making disparaging comments :)
