We’d rather have the knives. At least those would be useful.

James Taylor tickets? Oh yeah that will draw in the Young Kids. #smh

Did I enter another demo bracket or did everyone get the OFA email promising/threatening a chance to meet James Taylor?

Shinseki still has a job and Obama is giving away James Taylor tickets and talking about concussions in sports.

@redsteeze Maybe James Taylor will even dedicate his song "Mexico" to Sgt. Tahmooressi #MarineHeldInMexico

Because the best way to show how mad you are at veterans dying is to raffle off James Taylor tickets.

"Are you as mad as President Obama about the VA cover up? You can share this outrage with him backstage with James Taylor"

Guess all those scandal victims will just have to wait.
