RT, you once bashed someone for "Advertising", saying it was against forum rules...

So I must do my Constiutional duty by saying this thread is both:

  • Off Topic
  • And has entered the "Political Arena"

Rosyville already feeds the Chief and has mysteriously provided him a lake house. Just think what would happen to the beavers if he had the military at his command?

Chief Eagles wants to force every American to eat grits.  He is constantly spending the tax payers money on replacement MTH switches.

Chief Eagles... bad for oatmeal... bad for America!

Well, right now you have a car in every garage.  Of course it is because you can't afford gasoline to drive them.  Laugh [(-D]  Grits on every table is cheaper on the National debt.

Glad to see a politician that not only has the intestinal fortitude to stick with his ideas even if they prove unpopular, he also has the intestinal fortitude to eat grits!

 I actually like grits, just like oatmeal more.

Yeah Grits are cheaper as once you gave them to sombody they would not be replaced ever for at least 90% of the popuation as once is more than enough for the average person.

What happened to our petition for Jon to run for president - a staunch Iowan, layout artist, motorcyclist-of-the-people; he may reach all 50 states on his hog by Election Day. 

Grits is tempting but I'm still voting for our Jon...

Sorry to say that Chief Frank Eagles won't be able to have George Carlin for Vice President as he died earlier this year, he made grits famous as part of one of his comedy albums. Takes offs and Put ons, this is as close to it as I can remember, " I went down South and ordered Breakfast, they put this plate in front of me and I said to to the waiter, What's That?" he replied, " Them Grits!" "I said, They're Moving, Man!"    by George from 1972 I think it was done.

Maybe " a toy train layout in every home " would be a great motto.  Maybe get families back together instead of running the streets and getting into trouble.

 Just don't let the military handle contracts for train parts, no one will be able to afford trains.

Remember there are 4 choices for your future Presidential consideration--

the two candidates who are spending all the money..........

and Mr. Chief and myself. To help you make up your mind, I am offering this for your consideration--a 6 pack of Hub City for every train hobbyist.

Please remember to vote early and vote often.



I haven't chosen a VP yet but I'm thinking Bob Keller because he allows us to be silly :)

Be sure and click on the photo to see the details.
