How’s it going out there?

UPDATE: Am I seeing things, or are those lines behind him suggestive of the Christian cross? Remember the Mike Huckabee commercial that used the same trick?

        yuck

        watching Manning finally!

        lots of firefox trouble tonight (gee I wonder if they are political)

      • DisenfranchisedVoter

        Turn off MSNBO right now. I went to FOX News to watch it online.

    • snosandy

      I had better things to do. Cleaned my toilets and took the dog out to pee. Heard one neighbor vacuuming out their car and the other neighbor who’s tv I saw over the fence had on Nickelodeon. Guess we’re not Obama country here.

      • Liz B

        We have on Nickelodeon, too! It’s an awesome SpongeBob festival…do you think they might get more viewers than The one’s Speech? At least SpongeBob is intentionally funny.

        • myriam

          During The One’s speech, on the other channel I watched a Homer Simpson cartoon all the way through for the first time. It looked, for the minute before I changed BO’s channel (Ohhhh, that’s the change he was talking about …) that he was using three tele-prompters instead of the usual two. Hillary appeared to be speaking from memory during her speech.

    • snosandy

      Seeing 75,000 in Invesco Field, I don’t think there was anything close to 200,000 in Berlin.

      UGH!

  • heather

    Yay! Thanks for opening up this thread. I’m watching on FOX … the orgasmic moaning on CNN or MSNBC is just too cringey.

    • Katmoon

      I’ll watch what you all have to say, I don’t trust myself with the television at this point.~it can be destroyed.

        Me too, Kat. Thanks for the comments everyone. I can’t watch either.

  • typical.white.person
    • BernieO

      He says his grandma worked her way up to middle management. She was a VP for crying out loud! OF the largest bank in Hawaii. That is not middle management. And I still don’t buy the mom was on food stamps garbage, either. Don’t tell me his grandparents who both had college degrees (like her) and good jobs let their only child and grandchild live on food stamps. It makes no sense.

      He should brag about this grandmother’s career and his moms PhD in anthropology as well as her work in microlending in 3rd world countries instead of poor mouthing.

      • typical.white.person

        Oh, shit! I dozed off.

        Has he said anything worth a crap?

        I know. I know. Stupid question.

      • Hispana

        But he believes it. This is the I AM A Dream speech that I have heard about.
        I need to go through the liquor cabinet now.

      • Carmen Purser

        Even if she were on food stamps, keep in mind that BHO and his sister went to exclusive private schools on scholarships. His own daughters go to private school at the prestious University of Chicago prep school. And he think we will trust him to fix America’s public schools for the mass of children–he has never had any dealings with one!!!

    • Dr. Kate

      Unbelievable–he lifted lines directly out of HRC’s speech!!!!!

      • snosandy

        I get so irritated when he says HRC inspires his daughters. Then why the frigg didn’t he ask her to be his VP so he could show his daughters that they too can aspire to be President.

    • csuzeq

      HAHAHAHA. Did anyone catch this part from the transcript:

      To President Clinton, who last night made the case for change as only he can make it;
      I agree. Only President Clinton can really make change! HAHAHA!

      • csuzeq

        I only skimmed the text because after a couple paragraphs I was bored, but it seem no reach out to women voters or the 18,000,000 Clinton supporters, no?

        Well, well, well, not surprised. He doesn’t need us.

        • TeakwoodKite

          Clinton who?

          • csuzeq

            Bill.

    • csuzeq

      When I read this line, I thought of the Bob Rumson line from the movie “The American President.”

      It’s not because John McCain doesn’t care. It’s because John McCain doesn’t get it.

      Speech writer watching movies to pull lines from?

      • ee

        lol more than a few now mccain doesn’t get it

        • Leisa

          ee, he gets PUMA’s and he gets Hillary supporters… you need to take a lesson from his playbook, but it is under lock and key when it comes to those with lofty minds…;)

          Obama needs to make his case, and he has failed to do so with many Democrats. The fact that he has supporters like you, coming into other peoples houses and pissing on what they hold dear does not further in our view of Obama as the crowned nominee.

          IMO, you should to stop being a sore “winner”, or would you rather have me accuse you of being a Republican, because you daily win votes for McCain.

    • BernieO

      Yeah like playing Chain of Fools before Bill spoke then Addicted to Love after.

      • Leisa

        I caught that too. I wonder if the media will sweep that under the rug as they do all of Obama’s failings.

        So far, Obama fails the gracious winner test, the diplomat test (has he even tried to reach out to Hillary’s supporters?), the good judgment test (the songs alone before and after Bill’s supportive speech), impeccable associates test, good manners test, integrity test, and the ultimate test… CIC.

        The GOP have been collecting info on this man longer than the Dems… The DNC offered up an unvetted candidate and they think he will win a mandate?

        I am truly embarrassed about what the Democratic Party has become. I think there are enough of us Dems and Repubs, that are sick and tired of this crap. Team Obama tried to capitalize on our discontent(can we say poll driven and will say anything to be elected?), but his message and motives were to manipulate. We saw his “grassroots” movement as the AstroTurf that it is.

        We really need to find a way to build a viable third party. One for honest moderates that will work to solve our problems here and globally. We need a party that will help our country live up to it’s promise. It would have to be an exclusive party though… No plastics would be allowed…

        • Liz B

          I just watched the McCain ad that is offering congratulations to Obama. Classy ad, Classy guy. Watch it on John Mccain.com

          • heather

            Yes that was classy and a good tactical move. It gives him the upper hand, as you have to be strong to be gracious.

            • dee4hill

              Great point! Yes, you have to be gracious to be strong – 2 attributes Barry has never cultivated.

              Was this mock coronation the gaudiest thing you’ve ever seen? He “really” apprealed to ordinary citizens, didn’t he? One big visual illusion. David Copperfield with a tan.

              • heather

                Yes it was gaudy and kind of scarey. So many people. I was comforted by the fact that people filing in were running 1:7 Obama supporters versus people just coming out of curiosity.

        • Carol

          Did anyone catch that the very first person he thanked was Howard Dean and then Dick Durbin? I lost it at that point. Yeah, thanks Howie for screwing over Hillary for me!

        • Hope Floats

          How many times did they say “grassroots” on CNN?!! If this were the case, you would have seen a truly democratic process. I’m used to it now. Given how much they overhyped his toughness, specificity and “new approach” touching on social issues, I feel pretty confident the Republicans will eat him alive.

      • CC Cane

        Chain of Fools was perfect. The Obots sang and danced right along like lemmings having no clue that the joke is on them. They are a chain of fools.

      • barbh

        and where was BO on MLK day, at the State of the Black Union…absent, busy campaigning. He seems to be afraid to do things that honor the AA community, but wants their votes. People who are going to vote for him would have no problem with him attending those events, wouldn’t have cared if he attended those events, people that would care that he attended aren’t going to vote for him people that have a problem aren’t going to vote for him anyhow…

        He just seems more than a little two faced to me…

        • Thinker

          He sure was absent from the MLK memorial and the State of the Black Union.

          He skipped those events.

          But once again, the Black people I know give him a pass, “oh he was busy” but if that was the Clintons, of course they would have been racist.

          smh.

          • Hope Floats

            He skipped MLK day and “recreated the I Have a Dream” in a footbal stadium dressed up to look like the Lincoln Memorial. OH! They kept talking about Lincoln, too! He was a Republican!

      Mirror shatters in formless reflections of matter.
      Glass hand dissolving to ice petal flowers revolving.

    While we are sleeping in front of the TV set that is showing the crowning of CalibuBo, the rest of the world is no looking at the Obama – ACORN – Ayers – Soros connections. And they don’t like what they see. Read this. Don’t worry. If Obama comes on with a hard on it won’t even make a point in his toga and you won’t miss a thing.

    Editorial: Soros poised for payback on his political investment

    Examiner Staff Writer 8/28/08

    It’s bad enough that American taxpayers have to bail out the privately owned, tax-exempt Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

    But it’s truly outrageous that tax dollars will also go to support activist groups involved in voter fraud and illegal immigration.

    According to House Financial Services Committee member Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., the small print in the $42 billion bailout bill passed by Congress and signed by President Bush requires these two government-sponsored mortgage giants to

    deposit 4.2 percent of all new mortgages they underwrite into the National Affordable Housing Trust Fund.

    The Congressional Budget Office estimates that will be $531 million in fiscal 2009 alone.

    Here’s the catch. Bachmann warns that the trust fund — the largest expansion of federal housing assistance since Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society — is required to make grants to organizations that have “demonstrated the experience and the capacity to carry out the proposed Trust Fund activity.”

    Which means that money can easily be siphoned off to groups such as the National Council of La Raza and the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. The latter has been heavily funded by George Soros, the mega-wealthy mogul behind many liberal causes.

    La Raza, which opposes efforts to stop illegal immigration, and ACORN, members of which have been convicted of voter registration fraud in numerous states, are each eligible for $230 million under Section 134: Grants for Housing Counseling Assistance. And because the trust fund is “off budget,” the grants won’t show up on any congressional balance sheets.

    The Fannie Mae Foundation has already contributed more than $800,000 to the ACORN Housing Corp., which was also actively involved in the sub-prime mortgage disaster.

    La Raza testified before the Financial Services Committee in favor of the housing trust fund on numerous occasions. Little wonder. It’s a perfect way to hide payoffs to activist groups that in turn support political candidates who promise to keep their funding spigot on full blast.

    These morsels are just a taste of what’s to come if Barack Obama wins the White House and Democrats gain veto-proof majorities in the Senate and House. As an opening bid in his $6 billion anti-poverty program, Obama seeks a Social Investment Fund Network with a White House office to disburse funds to “social entrepreneurs and leading non-profits” that are inspiring “change in their communities.”

    Translated: Obama will give billions more tax dollars to radical non-profits like Soros’ ACORN and LaRaza. Soros – who is also a long-time Obama donor – must want a return on his investment.

    Hey, tax man. I want my money back!

      Wow, that sounds bigger than this program I stumbled across. Something called the FSP (Financial Sector Program) of Haaarvard crosspollenated with NATF (New Alliance Task Force) and worked with the FDIC and the Mexican consulate to provide banking and mortgages for illegal immigrants in the lovely city of Chicago with 35 banks involved. Now that there is some change you can believe in.

      I know… it is as if Team Obama is on hallucinogens when they make their claims that those bitter old grey haired women are the PUMAs.

    It’s really too bad he has been such an ass, because this video is well done and compelling.

    Durbin was talking about governmental reach into our private lives, perhaps forgetting about Obama and his support of FISA?

    And here’s a view from a writer at CNET, the geek/technology blog, on Biden, which makes it seem like Biden is for governmental intrusiveness, and is a big friend of the copyright interests.

    The lede:

    By choosing Joe Biden as their vice presidential candidate, the Democrats have selected a politician with a mixed record on technology who has spent most of his Senate career allied with the FBI and copyright holders, who ranks toward the bottom of CNET’s Technology Voters’ Guide, and whose anti-privacy legislation was actually responsible for the creation of PGP.

    (PGP, as I understand it, is encryption technology that does not give government a back door into the message — but I’m no expert here.)

          While it is historic for the people who didn’t pay attention. It makes you wonder if history is going to let this go unchallenged? Will books be written 50 years from now about Gore and Hillary winning but really losing?

          The DNC not only stole from the Dem popular vote winner. They stole this historic night from those unwitting Americans and political wonks like me by selecting him like Bush was.

          They sullied this historic moment with their corruption.

          The jerks were probably scared that the Republicans were going to beat them to the historic punch with Colin Powell. So they figured the end justified the means, because they knew Colin Powell would have no probelms getting Dems to cross the aisle for him.

          Since you cruise the same information that we do here. You know what really happened….and you know they stole the geniune moment from you too.

          I truly hoped this moment in history would have been so much more.

          I wanted to have goosebumps on my arms and tears in my eyes….and the DNC stole that from me and so many others here.

          So, I guess the thought of Colin Powell as Pres and how excited my husband and I were at the possibility will have to supplant tonight….since that was real.

    His pandering to small business is worthless. Most small businesses have income taxed at the highest bracket, so reducing their capital gains taxes does nothing, unless you are George Bush and call income capital gains. Oh, I guess that is coming up. I read ahead to avoid watching.

    “This is a nearly psychotic man with a deep-seated need for larger-than-life approval. The expression of this need eclipses everything else in his world to an extreme, sociopathic degree. When he gets up in the morning, if he sleeps at all, he has no free choice except to seek another audience to bolster his arrogance and his ego. What this maniac doesn’t realize yet–what he wont permit himself to admit–is that he will fail in his mission to become the President of the United States. His arrogance and lack of conscience will catch up with him and bring him down.”

      our son’s service to his country allows people like me to voice my opinion and I thank him for that. UBL’s cave isn’t in Iraq and the Beautiful O is one of the few pols who has been on Pakistan’s case to do more. Just like Putin, Bush put all his money on Musharuf and his judgement was wrong and McCain has been the same re Musharuf.

        That should be Your son’.

    Stealing from Pres Clinton…with the going through govt and getting rid of govt waste.

    That was a promise Clinton/Gore would accomplish in the first 100 days in office.

    I remember the press conference with the govt programs cut and a huge stack of papers that represented those programs standing beside both of them.

    If I remember correctly, Gore was tasked to do it.

    It is like Christmas eve folks! I can’t wait til tomorrow when the republican hounds from hell are unleashed! I am so damn excited to finally see what they will do to him… all that he deserves!

    I’d like to see him look Bill & Hillary Clinton in the eyes and say that. After what he did to them.

    Is “tough, direct diplomacy” talking to Ahmedinejad w/o conditions?

  • Crystal

    McCain doesn’t have to challenge your character jackass. When you have bad character it shows.

    • Firefly

      Yeah, I think he’s trying to make us avert our eyes when the onslaught begins – starting with Ayers – continuing with Rezko, Rev. Wright, the birth certificate, the citizenship questions, the ACORN questions, the late-night limo limbos, his wife screaming about whitey – you know, that stuff that McCain “dreamed up” just to impugn barky’s “character” – but he’s really only saying it because he’s “black,” donchaknow. After all, bambi doesn’t even know those people – well, maybe to say hi in passing…

  • Firefly

    Ya know, McCain and the republican 527s can have a field day with this speech – it’s so full of lies – just picking it apart and juxtaposing what he claims against the truth.

    I’d especially like to see them put the lie to his rewritten personal “story” about being raised by a single mom on food stamps, blah blah blah. It’s so easily proven a lie – and he’s not only been telling this FAIRY TALE himself for months and months, but he’s got all his minions telling it – over and over again. And they all know it’s complete BS. They don’t care – it’s “so compelling,” donchaknow – and nobody but nobody has ever called them on it.

  • VMorris

    Who is the fake ass candidate with no record trying to paint McCain as another term of bush?

    Who is the unqualified candidate with no record painting everyone who doesnt support him as a racist?

    The Hubris and shear volume of duplicity that falls from his orifice is shocking.

    I couldn’t watch. He’s attacking John McCain. So where are his specific solutions? Can he speak to problems in different areas of the country as Hillary could? Does he know what they are?

    Of course not.

    McCain won’t be as easy to get rid of as his other opponents. But I’m sure McCain’s divorce papers from his first marriage will mysteriously surface. This is old time Chicago politics. Hope McCain is prepared.

    All I hear from BO is, “I suck, but I’m better than 4 more years of Bush!” He jumped right into saying that. Is it his best argument? McCain isn’t Bush, anyway.

    Oh yeah, and BO keeps lying and distorting info.

    I am not seeing a very enthusiastic audience. And BO is back to his annoying habit of reaching a crescendo in the middle of every sentence, with a bizarre clipped faltering halt at the end.

    At least the stupid convention is almost over. Hillary 2012.

    Ok, here’s a string of incredible statements. You’ll all recognize and appreciate the import of these:

    “This has never been about me. It’s about you.”

    “[We can't have] the same old politics and same old players.”

    “At defining moments like this.”

    “New politics for a new time. This is one of those moments.”

    “The change we need is coming. I’ve seen it.”

    Now he’s bragging about moving people from welfare to work?!? I thought that was the evil Clintons who did that.

    “The republicans who never thought they’d pick up a republican ballot.” (yes, I remember his ‘Democrat for a day’ initiative)

    Now he’s channeling MLK … ok I’ve got to go barf in the toilet now …

    Wow, was that bad. Nothing but fluff.

  • morganjane

    I just heard Matthews insulted Colin Powell and C. Rice… and insulted history by suggesting Obama won this nomination when we all know that the DNC thought a AA would be better than a Woman and made it happen…
    Here is what the idiot said…
    “Again he [Barack Obama] carries with him the history of tonight. And it’s important to point out, as we have not so far, Barack Obama was not given this nomination, he won it. He was not offered a nice title like Secretary of State, like Condoleezza Rice got from the Republicans. He was not offered the title of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs as Colin Powell was, or Secretary of State. He won the nomination of a Democratic Party voting together. He defeated all other opponents and took the prize and took the leadership. He is the chosen leader of the Democratic Party.

    He is not some popular appointment or a showcase appointment. He is the victor here tonight. That’s why he dictates the agenda. That’s why he says, personally, what the Democratic Party will do if he’s elected President. He is the leader of the party. He may be the leader of the country through a democratic process. It is so vital to understand the history being made here tonight. This is not something cute or wonderful. It is something compelling and powerful. This country has changed its history.”

    Sounds to me Matthews gets off on being dominated (by Obama or someone). That is fine and all but he should really leave his fetches in the Bedroom!!

    • http://mccaindemocrats.wordpress.com/ 30yrdem-not any more

      Doesn’t all the books about the Bush Admin have Rice and Powell trying to stand up against the war and Rummy…Cheney….etc?

    It’s obvious from this Ziegfield folly show, that obama does not understand that he is a public servant. His actions betray the fact that he considers the public his servant.

    • Anne

      What makes me the saddest about this, is that if he loses big, no one will have confidence to present a viable AA candidate on the national stage for a while. I would very much like to see this. Both party and voters will equate all AA candidates to Barack Obama. How unfortunate. If he loses by a small margin, perhaps not so much. But then he may not go away and I want him to go away. just go away. please.

      • Julius Streicher

        I don’t think that’s something to worry about. If people regret such a turn of events they will realize they have Obama to blame. Then again, look at the type of people supporting Obama – the radical muslims, etc. Do you really want to give them another chance? It is THEY who have to change before a black candidate can be given another chance.

        Tequila has no worm, or gusanito, in it. There are very strict laws regarding what is tequila. (Just like Jack Daniels isn’t Bourbon… It’s only whiskey.)

        Mezcal, made from the maguey, has no restrictions and some distillers like to decorate it with the worm that feeds on the plant.

        I love tequila. I have several hand made tequilas in my collection.

        Check out Casa Noble. Also, El Jimador and Corralejo. These are for sipping only! If you were to combine them with margarita mix or some other pollutant you would be promptly struck down by a bus load of cancer. Serious.

    I would love to hear from democrats if this speech convinced them that Obama can lead this country because I sure as hell did not get it, there was lots of words, lots of telling me what is wrong, what Mc Cain and Bush did not do, but nowhere did Obama give me the plan as to how he is going to achieve all the great things he said he will do.

    Just read this at Politico.com. It’s McCain’s response to Obama’s speech:

    “Tonight, Americans witnessed a misleading speech that was so fundamentally at odds with the meager record of Barack Obama. When the temple comes down, the fireworks end, and the words are over, the facts remain: Senator Obama still has no record of bipartisanship, still opposes offshore drilling, still voted to raise taxes on those making just $42,000 per year, and still voted against funds for American troops in harm’s way. The fact remains: Barack Obama is still not ready to be President.”

          Well lets see: Strongarmed his way in the caucasus; didn’t win the popular legal vote; played the race card against the best candidate; he bought off his super delegates and if Florida and Michigan had their full votes counted he would not have led in delegates; and, oh yes, he leads a fractured party.

    • ziggy

      I thought so too. Superb speech, and a clear indication that Obama is an extraordinary political strategist. In four days time we’ve gone from party division to a unified party behind a candidate who’s promoting mainstream democratic policy.

      It’s hard to separate out what he said from the hype of the corinthian columns, the fireworks, the massive size of the crowd (only 1 out of 7 people interviewed in the waiting line were actual Obama supporters). So, yes, what an extravaganza. But the speech didn’t introduce any elements we haven’t already heard coming from his mouth. Time will tell.

      • Joy

        And McCain has to wait until next week to get his T-Ball particiaption trophy.

  • Carmen Purser

    I found this all to be a bit too much hype this week. Hillary promoting this guy to the American public. Bill Clinton saying that he too had been accused of “being too young and inexperienced” just seemed to put down his own record. If I recall by the time he came to Washington, had he (Bill) not been in charge of running something–3 time Governor and Attorney General for Arkansas?

    BHO is such a farce. He tell us to save fuel by inflating our tires with air, but then he puts on a show in a stadium that is projected to have cost in excess of $5 million. As a former community organizer why didn’t he go out and feed some of the hungry as a real gesture of compassion? But then I forgot–he dd not do much for the citizens of Chicago when Rezko had them living in horrible conditions. When I came through Chicago airport last week, I heard this city is more than $400 million in debt. One of BHO’s senior finance manager is Mayor Daley’s brother–amazing! He should be helping his brother figure out how to get their city out of debt.

    Amazing this celebrity status of BHO–just heard David Gergen say it was more than a speech–”it was more like a symphony!!! ” So now we know he can put on a show and he can put on a concert!! We will need more than music to get our country on course again.

    Do you think BHO’s surrogates will correct CNN comments–”that this is the largest crowd he has ever spoken before.” I thoughyt he spoke before 200,000 in Berlin!

    If you watched the pre-speech video, did you note that little was mentioned about those college years–this was the period I believe where he had those wreckless years–wouldn’t want to bring attention to those years. Didn’t say anything about his sister either–would have to remind us about his Indonesian ties and stepfather.

    All just a real paraxdox or as Bill Clinton say “It’s a fairy tale.”

    I know who I will be voting for at the poll. Can’t wait for the Republican Convention next week.

    • Karma

      Chicago is $400 million in debt!!!

      Wow…I knew their politicians sucked…just not that badly.

    I simply can’t wait for next week when they cut the little weenie down to size.

            • http://safari AnnieCarmel

              My comments about LBJ had nothing to do with the Voting Rights Act. It had nothing to to with anything other than he was an old style politician who twisted arms and wasn’t the most honest politician on the block. He lied to us all the way through about VietNam beginning with the Gulf of Tonkin and he was so ambitious that when JFK was assassinated, the initial conspiracy theories were that he was responsible for it in order to take over. It didn’t matter that there was no connection or proof, it was because of his reputation and the kind of politician he was. I lived through that era and can in hindsight appreciate his domestic contributions. But he did tax us to pay for that damned war in a way we couldn’t get out of by adding a 10% surcharge on the 1040 Internal Revenue Tax filing and in the long run just about bankrupted the country to pay for his folly.

              I don’t appreciate your inference that I am somehow a racist because I criticize LBJ, Obama or any other public figure. We have a right to examine anyone who presumes to act in our name and you need to get over yourself and grow up.

    FOX just replayed a portion of the speech and he DID say:

    “I don’t fit the pedigree”

    • HARP

      No sir. no race card there.

      • SJ

        It is disappointing that he would use that line, there was no call for that not in a nomination speech.

        He did not run against black candidates did he, and if it was not for the support of white voters he would not be where he is today would he?

        Also if he feels so strongly that he is not of the pedigree or he is not the typical face for the dollar bill why the hell is he running for?

        On one hand 80,000 people came out to see you accept the nomination as the first black candidate and here he stand talking crap about pedigree oh give me a break, Obama has no class that was a slap in the face of all the white voters that supported him to get him there.

      And President Carter said who was the milking? yes, Barry, we know you’re black.

  • bcraig

    I decided not to watch tonight, tho inevitably bits and pieces of his speech cut though while flipping through the channels on the tv – changing stations on the radio – aimless – no one it seems can be totally immune from history. I lay outside on the grass instead and listened to the busy streets drive by – and I know I’m not the only one – I can’t be alone…

    A little discussion earlier on Fox about the Ayers ad and the Obama campaign wanting the DOJ to file a “criminal” complaint. Commentators agreed that it will only serve to give it more attention and that everything on the ad is substantiated and true so…the laughs on them. Nothing criminal about it (only criminals are starring in the ad!) and they doubted that it could go anywhere even with the FCC.

    • Hispana

      Perfect. Sounds like his experienced support is going to ensure that if someone did not understand the Ayers connection, now they will want to know about it.

    • ziggy

      The Ayers ad appears extremist to most mainstream Americans–almost like a product of conspiracy theorists. People who are totally anti-Obama miss that about the ad, because it resonates so strongly with the views they already hold.

      McCain needs a new tactic, because the negativity is already starting to reflect back on him, and the content isn’t counteracting the positive, entirely reasonable image Obama is building for himself.

      Maybe he needs new ad people. The congratulatory ad tonight showed us a far more likeable John McCain–a wise old guy people should listen to. But his ad people could have done a far better job. The close up and pose together with the tinkly nursery music in the background somehow made me think of a kindly old Teletubby. I don’t think that’s quite what they were going for.

      • Hispana

        Perhaps as another poster stated, people should be reminded that Ayers is an unrepentant American terrorist who bombed and maimed. People need to remember what Sept 11 looked like. Those people were from elsewhere and they were also unrepentant. As difficult as it is to know what happened on that day, no life is less precious than another. I believe Ayers only regret was that he did not do more.

        • http://safari AnnieCarmel

          Yes, Hispania. I knew a lot of people back in the 60′s who espoused the same sort of radical talk. Difference is they never bombed or killed anyone and they grew up.

          Now they would laugh at themselves from those days and certainly are not stuck in their rebellious days. They couldn’t imagine saying they should have done more destruction and maiming of others.

          With Ayers, it seems to be his major claim to fame and he must get a lot of ego satisfaction from his image. There’s no room for that crap today.

          • Hispana

            No, there is not.

      • http://safari AnnieCarmel

        The Ayers ad is not from McCain’s campaign.

        Some guy in Texas who funded the swiftboat ads against Kerry. Never heard of him before.

    OK all does anyone else think Joe Biden looks like Leslie Neilson? I keep getting images of Leslie in Naked Gun when I see Biden. I think it’s that overdone smile that does it for me.

      Biden looks like the cryptkeeper with a facelift. He makes McCain look young.

    Did you see the 2 Muslims in turbans in the crowd as the camera panned around.

    Pretty scary.

    Who do they represent?

    Who do they control?

    Are they from Obama’s real birth country?

    Are they here to see their plans come to fruition?

    • KJMontana

      Wow. Was that really necessary? Take a good long look in the mirror and ask yourself if what you have just shit out was really necessary?

  • suzieQ

    Did anyone else notice Michelle’s outfit? My god who is dressing this woman? Some kind of reddish and black gaudy print dress with a bow with long strings tied in the back………….and then some weird looking afterthought looking pinkish roses scattered around the neckline. Looked like something that you made in 9th grade home ec class & your teacher made you wear it anyway. Since I could not bring myself to turn the sound on for the speech, watching her frowny puss wear this butt ugly dress was a high point for me.

    • http://safari AnnieCarmel

      It was hiked up in back. She should get some botox for those frowns and neutralize the v shaped Cruella d’Ville eyebrows. But then, the face wouldn’t match the personality…so maybe not.

      • Hispana

        You would think that someone on Oprah’s hair and makeup would have worked on that repackage. She does need some work on the eyebrows. They are quite harsh.

        • http://safari AnnieCarmel

          In the unlikely event that she gets into the WH, Oprah will have her work cut out for her…finishing school on manners, wardrobe, protocol, a major course on seeing youself as others see you…well, we get the picture. She’s pretty coarse…a lot of rough edges. I sort of feel sorry for her…Good Grief, someone slap me and hide the koolaid.

      • Joy

        Maybe she can go to Cindy McCain’s plastic surgeon. Just watch out Michelle if Cindy ask for your pain pills.

        • imustprotest

          Joy your mommy is calling…your way past your bedtime.

          • Trolls Smell Bad; Real Bad

            Not even a plastic surgeon can help Michelle.

            • Joy

              But look what plastic surgury did for Cindy. If the docs can do something for Cindy’s plastic ass face there’s hope for everyone. Even you.

              • Trolls Smell Bad; Real Bad

                She had beauty to start with. Michelle is ugly; no help even from a plastic surgeon.

                • Joy

                  Michelle is a beautiful poised woman. Cindy not so much. Cindy is the so fragil precious one she gets injured just from a hand shake. Pampered and overprotected.

                  • Trolls Smell Bad; Real Bad

                    Michelle has been pampered. Her husband got the hugh $300,000 salary for her at the hospital. She has lived off the taxpayers backs for years.

                    Cindy has been running a corporation. Michelle only runs her mouth.

                    Michelle is not a beautiful woman and definitely not poised. She is one ugly woman.

                    • Joy

                      Cindy inherited her wealth which is fine with me but don’t give me she worked her fingers to the bone routine. And $300,000.00 a year would not even cover Cindy’s charge card expenses for a month.

                    • Trolls Smell Bad; Real Bad

                      You sound jealous. But that’s expected from an Obama supporter.

                      Yes, Cindy had to have her family pay for her expenses while Michelle went to Princeton and Harvard on the taxpayers back.

                      Cindy=relies on family.

                      Michelle=relies on the taxpayer.

                    • Joy

                      Michelle went to school on college loans she had to repay. It seems you are jealous that Michelle went to Princeton.

                      I voted for Hillary in my state’s primary and caucus. I’m not blinded by the hate so many on this board seem to be.

                    • John House

                      Who in their right mind would be jealous of affirmative action kids like the Obamas?

  • http://safari AnnieCarmel

    Well, I think the gloves are off and Mac’s very classy ad congratulating Obama prior to the convention was the end of all the joking (very effective though) around. They made a point though that they have given them their week and it sort of sounded as if they were asking for a gentlemen’s agreement for the same from them. Well, good luck with that. Obama showed tonight that he’ll say anything to muddy the truth.

    He’ll get paid back during the town hall debates though. Notice he tried to clean up after himself for his poor performance at Saddleback.

    • ziggy

      I don’t think they exactly “gave them their week”. Republican campaign spokespersons and commentators were pouring it on throughout the convention, pushing the same talking points, spinning speeches and events only moments after they happened. FOX certainly didn’t provide straightforward convention coverage. They basically tried to alter perceptions of convention events on the roll. Sunday, GOP ads questioning why Obama hadn’t chosen Clinton as VP had received heavy televison play. A second TV ad followed, featuring Hillary’s criticisms of Obama. Tuesday, Romney laid into the Democrats during a widely televised midday news conference. Wednesday, Guiliana took his shot. Wednesday night, after Bill’s speech, the GOP released a web ad attacking Obama’s experience, using primary contest quotes of various democrats against him. The republicans themselves have set a new precedent.

      • http://safari AnnieCarmel

        Oh, ziggy dear, that was the velvet glove. You ain’t seen nothin’ yet. So much material, so little time. The damned DNC either didn’t do their job or they’ve been taken over by extremists so vile that the American public is going to go into a dead faint when they are exposed.

    The problem with Obama is that his words ring hollow …for those with a discerning mind.

    Those easily fooled..like those who follow all demagouges, will be impressed by all of the artificial pomposity.
