comical enough to be scary

In the name of the environment and the children we will tax you, regulate you and force you to buy products you do not want.

Other than that just a bunch of 'journalist' reliving their highschool graduation party.

 

 

Drama Queen

I was expecting to hear violins in the background.I am surprised she didnt say she walked 20 miles in snow to go to school.It was phoney to me.She wanted sympathy and played it to the hilt.I didnt buy her she just regular folks like the rest of us.Harvard and Princeton cost a fortune.She is a Elitist and no matter what spin she puts out it wont change that.

20 miles to school

And it was uphill, both ways. With her shoes tied together strung across her neck because she knew momma and daddy couldn't afford new ones.

Nice message. "If you'll elect my husband, I'll be proud of America"

Hey, has anyone seen Michel Moore? Just wondering, because that worked sooooo well last time.

Yup forgot about the hill.The way she put it out.Someone called it a laundry list and that is what it sounded like.

1.Loving Family
2.Hard working
3.Blessed
4.Say something about troops
5.Mention Hillary
6.Dont mention Harvard or Princeton
7.Dont mention Tony Rezco
8.Dont mention 200k raise or pushing poor to community hospitals
9.Oh make sure to say I love America

I didnt buy her she just

I didnt buy her she just regular folks like the rest of us.Harvard and Princeton cost a fortune.

First of all, I will admit that I didn't watch a second of this adoration-fest last night. It's bad enough just reading about it here!

But it doesn't surprise me at all that Mrs. Obama pandered to the regular folks.

She wants people to feel like they're "regular folks" because they were burdened by student loans just like everyone else and they struggled (until Barack wrote those books, which enabled them to pay them off)

In other words, her signature theme is "We'd be poor if we didn't have all this money!"

 

MB

"In other words, her signature theme is "We'd be poor if we didn't have all this money!" That pretty well sums it up.It was a basic pander to the peasants speech.

What party?

That was a boring night of conventioneering.

Why didn't they bring out Sheets Byrd to celebrate the roots of their legacy?

I ♣ my seal

Well one thing for sure,

Well one thing for sure, Democrats have always been good at the do as I say, and not do as I do game.

Look at their tax returns for giving, look at their speeches about free health care, as they pay for the very best, or like Mitchell working  for a hospital that turned away the poor. Look at the way they fly around the world to tell us how bad we are because we take the kids to school in a SUV.

I hate these people for the hypocrisy they show not on daily basis but minute by minute.

the whole night WASTED

Dorks on display...I scarcely comment anymore because I simply cannot put together in my head how there could be one single American who would cast a vote for these malodorous, lieing, vapid,empty, treasonous empty pieces of sh!?.

We kicked King George the 3rd's ugly butt for one fifth of the evil these crapocrats espouse. Friggin' unbelievable. Just unbelievable.

Applause line

The biggest applause she got was when she mentioned hil, and yeah she worked the "laundry list" over the rub board purty hard. One note, the "lobbyist" are pouring money out in Denver like a Mississippi River flood, wide and deep. And the dims are lappin it up like a hog in the slop trough.

 How is it that those knuckleheads protesting outside the arena are allowed to wear mask?  I could have sworn that was against the law.  They looked like a bunch of Hamas regulars marching. I personally think they ought to be treated as same. As usual, we'll regret not clamping down with a strong hand on anarchist such as these. I heard one young man holler Eff America! And thought he should be out of our country this minute. But, I don't make the laws.

Mary Jo/kennedy

I wonder how the Mary Jo Kopechne family feels watching those slut/slobs, of the msm, slobber all over kennedy, and all those people idolize and swoon and drool on every word he speaks?? It makes me sick, and i wonder, what kind of people are these, and what has the U.S.A. become that these people have power credibility.

may have faked a story in his book.

Rather than watch the

Rather than watch the bitch-and-whine fest that was on all evening yesterday on countless channels, where every minority politician in the country came to the podium to amatuerly read the teleprompter, telling us how bad this country is right now, I watched CSPAN.

They were fielding callers last night, taking turns between Republicans and Democrat(ic)s.

Oddly, half the "Republican" phone calls went like this:

"Hi, I am a life-long Republican, but, after watching the convetion tonight, I am voting for Obama"...

or

"After watching Senator Kennedy, I think he is one of this country's greatest politicians ever, and I am a Republican"...

I thought about calling the Democrat(ic) phone number to ask if any of the Kopechnes were in the crowd tonight, but, thought, nah, why bother? 

I also asked myself, and the faithful wife at this shrubber's side, while watching footage of the drones and sheep in the convention audience, who would be retarded enough to actually go to a political convention? I mean, come on. Watching these middle-aged, dumpy broads in goofy hats and 37 pieces of Chotchskie flair all over their blouses, clapping and dancing along to a poorly-Muzak'ed rendition of "Don't Stop" made me wonder: three days of exposure to these dimwits would drive this shrubber insane. And I am sure things would be no different at a Republican convention, and don't get me started on the 1776-dressed collection of unemployed Troofer douchebags that would be the audience of a Libertarian convention...

 

The Rush Limbaugh "Seminar

The Rush Limbaugh "Seminar Callers" were operating last night, I see.

Yep, indeed, MB. The

Yep, indeed, MB. The Pittsburgh radio station that carries Limbaugh plays a promo for him highlighting that very topic.

Thx for reminding me of that!

Oh the day we get a

Oh the day we get a lifelong "Democrat" calling in saying, they are going to vote for McCain. Although after the Hilary fiasco that may actually happen.

Conventions

 Roger, you hit the nail on the head.  Back in my "formative years", I remember watching both conventions to the fullest extent possible and taking it all in. 

Now that I am highly opinionated and highly allergic to party hackery of all sorts, I wouldn't dream of going to a party convention either.  It would be a painful experience to say the least. I don't watch them anymore and haven't since 1996. 

Whoever casts a vote for Obama-Biden is nothing more than a common thief.  Whoever fails to vote against them is nothing more than a moral coward.

Thanks PT. That nonsense was tough to watch. Where's a Cuban Tae Kwon Do guy when you need one?

Watch the second extended video it gets better...

"Look at all these people they know 911 was an inside job!" (counting 10 or so people) - this is like comic gold.

They actually kept this up for over 12 minutes...

Truthers Attack Michelle Malkin (Extended Video)

"Michelle Malkin is GUILTY! GUILTY! GUILTY! ... of war crimes!!!" - so much entertainment in one video. I can't stop laughing.

The Anti 'Man-Made' Global Warming Resource

These guys are serious?

A bunch of losers running around with a guy with a cameraman and a microphone because he's probably got a job, and maybe they can roll him later and have their way with him.

Seriously, I'm thinking the Cuban Tae Kwon Do guy needs to visit Denver.

Looks like some cops need to grow a pair. That looked scary for Michelle for a while there.

"Kill Michelle Malkin! Kill Michelle Malkin!"

Apparently the kid in the green shirt started chanting this. You can hear it better in this video captured by another blogger, starts at 1:27

"Kill Michelle Malkin!"

Stoners? 

Seriously though, if some guy came up and started screaming in my face, I would lay him out. Especially if I had already walked away from him once.

Michelle Malkin

I was plenty mad when Geraldo got all macho on her. This got me p*ssed.

CA

Did Geraldo threaten to hit her with his purse?I remember his sorry butt threaten to spit on her.I just cant picture Geraldo as macho.He reminds me of the guy in PTs link.All mouth and in dire need of wall to wall counciling. 

Geraldo

Geraldo should have gotten a strike 3 on that one and been replaced with Michelle Malkin. 

I ♣ my seal

You aint kidding

That was BS.I love how Michelle had the video and Geraldo still lied.Even with proof he was distorting what she had said.I used to watch BOR and Fox but not to much anymore.To let that punk Geraldo get away with that garbage was lame.Lost most of my respect for Fox.Still will watch before the msm.Just dont watch much of it anymore.

 The answer is simple: 

 The answer is simple:  One bodyguard, plus one Desert Eagle, equals one mouth shut.  Simple math really.

This guy pissed me off!

This guy pissed me off! Notice that he wouldn't let her defend herself. What a f*cking tool!! That was hard to watch. The hate and violence intended and he wouldn't shut the f*ck up!!!! Lefties are so filled with hate and don't want to hear a response to their rants. Disgusting!!!. That was hard to watch! He towered over her like he wanted to hit her, and kept threatening to sue if anyone protecting her pushed him away, God, I wish I was there, I would have gone to jail and he would be in a hospital!!! Screw him!!! I wish she would show this and show how the moonbats are out of control. This guy was apparently STONED!!! I am pissed now and need to just chill and go to bed... Moonbats suck big time!!!! Period!!! Nuff said...

Megan Kendall on FNC

I like Fox News.  Really.  I don't watch any other cable news network and I don't watch the big three networks for my news. 

For the most part Fox's reporters and anchors do a good job of keeping things "fair and balanced."  Great. 

However, the blond and beautiful one, Megan Kendall (or Kelly  or whatever she is these days) is letter her true colors shine through. 

This morning Megan criticized John McCain for being on Jay Leno for the second time.  Wow, twice. 

She has overlooked all the "rock star" treatment Obama is getting by appearing on numerous magazine covers, celebrity fund-raising events, and the latest which is Bon Jovi and Bruce Springstein performing at his convention speech.  Please, this is so one sided. 

Megan needs to keep her Pro-Obama feelings in check and DO HER JOB which is to report the news FAIR AND BALANCED. 

 

Stop picking on Megyn

Leave Megyn Kendall alone, she's hot! :-)
