Did any of our Republican lawmakers accept Obama's invitation to the state dinner last night?

McConnell, Boehner, and Jindal were invited. Did anyone hear if they showed?

    Bobby J showed and appeared to be enjoying himself. McConnell and Beaner declined the invites. Guess Beaner had a more important golf date to attend to. (Funny how the party of "fiscal conservatives" is peopled by morons who spend upwards of $80,000 in PAC funds on golf outings. Hypocrites!)

    Fox Noise initially reported that none had been invited but has since corrected that at least on their website. Don't know what their talking heads are saying on the idiot box, but they often conflict with information on the website.

    Well the Republicans were to busy working to correct the mistakes that the Democrats have made as we all know liberals never think before they act. I am also glad michelle gets a nice $4,000+ dress however there are Americans who can't even afford a thanksgiving meal. Bad taste and bad form by your so called messiah.

    Jindal did show. There were pictures of him there on the news this morning. Don't know about the others.

    Over 300 people and only 3 Republicans invited, have to think about this.

    It appears that they all had better things to do OR maybe because it was a vegetarian menu. Boehner

    (pronouced B0ner) was the only one that I know about and he declined and then announced he was snubbed.

    Jindal was there... other than that... I doubt he invited many.

    Powell was there.. but well... we all know what he is.. and it is not Republican!

    Oprah was NOT invited...

    Oprah's friend WAS.

    I don't know and I don't care. I'd like to see a PARTY WIDE boycott of President Obama.

    This guy isn't just "wrong".... he's as wrong as wrong can be, and the way Obama and Pelosi have treated Republicans, the Republicans should do as the Amish do... and SHUN HIM. Completely refuse to acknowledge Obama as a way of letting America know just how DANGEROUS this radical Marxist is for America.

    http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/11/24/republi... says that top repubs WERE NOT invited. So, it seems only the sellouts showed for 0's latest taxpayer funded party.

    Just Obama's lackey... Colin Powell... I do not know why this suck up doesn't just join Obama and his band of communists!
