Republican National Convention Delegates

By Karl-Thomas Musselman

This is just great. Go over to the Republican National Convention site and look at their 4 delegate profiles.

We have 2 Hispanics, 2 Woman, and 1 African American. Talk about sugar coating the delegation, where are all the straight white guys in their 50s? They seem to be severly under-represented. This is clearly a case of reverse discrimination!!!

I mean, if this was the Democratic Convention Site, I would be just fine, since we seem to be a bit lacking in that whole white guy department anyways...

And reading their profiles, all four would want to watch a Broadway musical rather than see a Yankee's game. WHAT? Don't they know that their Party's nominee is manly and isn't one to be whistling showtunes??? And remember from that article who the delegates aren't seeing any shows with gay characters in them? Even so, what is with Mr. Cortez wanting to see Mamma Mia (ABBA songs, can't get much gay camp)? The others are going for the Lion King, but don't they know it's not the wholesome movie, but the offspring of the ever so gay Elton John?

Not matter how hard the National Republicans try to moderate their image, the fact is they are still controlled and beholden to their right wing base. Give me a break.
