(1/1)
trapeze:
Five of twelve have "scheduling issues" and, tragically, can't attend.

--- Quote ---They must be very busy people. Regardless of one's political views, the president is still the president – and an opportunity to speak with the leader of the free world is a rare and special one.
You'd think whatever photo shoots or sponsor appearances these drivers have lined up on Wednesday afternoon – if that's indeed the reason – could be rescheduled. After all, this is the President of the United States we're talking about here.
For a sport that prides itself on patriotism, having so many drivers turn down the president's invitation simply seems strange.

The seven losers are:
Jimmy Johnson, Denny Hamlin, Jeff Gordon, Kyle Busch, Clint Bowyer, Jeff Burton and Matt Kenseth.
I'm not expecting a big fan fallout over this not so subtle snub of President Downgrade. What I am expecting now is a big EPA investigation into NASCAR. Or an EEOC investigation. I'm not kidding about this, either.

I wonder if they will give him a helmet and if he will be goofy enough to put it on?
Libertas:
Jeesh, and this years race is just going into the home stretch...nice timing Stymie on honoring last years performers!
PS-I wouldn't go if I was the champ! (But JJ does photo Op's with CA Gal Pal Nasty Pelosi too, so, go figure...)
PPS-No way in hell I bet against you Trap on Fed's coming down on NASCAR, no way no how!
PPPS-He doesn't need a helmet, the damage is done, nothing to protect...but he is goofy and no doubt will say something that embarasses the entire nation!
