Bad Move: Chris Christie to give Keynote address at GOP Convention

If there is any motivation to get involved in GOP politics, 2012 is the reason. Despite the Tea party fueled victory in 2010, the Progressive wing of the GOP has struck back. They have shoved Mitt Romney down our throats. Now to add insult to injury, they are going to have Global Warming believing and Muslim Brotherhood supporter NJ. Gov. Chris Christie to give the keynote address at the Republican convention.

The word is going out quietly to Republican activists across New Jersey: If you’re going to the GOP convention in Tampa next month, be sure to be there by Tuesday night, Aug. 28, because Gov. Chris Christie is going to be giving the keynote speech that night.

“We’ve been told that’s the night to be there, that’s when the governor is going to speak. They’re saying he’s the keynoter,” one top party activist told The Post yesterday.

We need to purge the GOP elites.

Wilson Sisters Angry at the GOP

Watching the Republican Convention, I couldn’t help wondering whether all those left-wing musicians whose songs they were playing (Heart, Van Halen, etc.) had given permission for their work to be used. The answer: no.

Ann and Nancy Wilson are pissed at the Republican Party and have fired off a cease and desist letter to the McCain/Palin campaign.

Specifically, the Heart women are upset that the GOP has used their classic “Barracuda” as a theme song for Sarah Palin. TMZ obtained a statement from Heart’s rep, who says “The Republican campaign did not ask for permission to use the song, nor would they have been granted that permission.”

The statement goes on: “We have asked the Republican campaign publicly not to use our music. We hope our wishes will be honored.”
