RNC Open Thread

Fred THompsons speech was amaxingly delivered.

wow.

Lieberman is speaking now.

They played a film of Obama’s hero St. Ronnie. I will never understand their worship of that man.

Thompson was good, I like the way they are stressing on its is more important than party to be American, I really wonder if there is a question in there about Obama’s birth and exactly if he has dual citizen ship or not.

That is an issue that seems to have gone unnoticed and some has left that question alone they don’t want to follow up and find out exactly where he was born.

I agree, he did a great job.

Worked his way through McCain’s life with humor and some drama.

Eloquence is no substitute for a record! – Lieberman

HAHAHAH poor obambi

OMG he is comparing Obama to CLinton!!!! HAHAHAAHA WORK!

Obambi must be so pissed he just cant seem to shake those Clinton people lol

From someone who has never had much interest in watching Laura Bush (aka Pickles), I was amazed at her outreach to women. The Republicans actually recognized, thanked and showed appreciation for their women who worked the grassroots, staffed events and supported the party.

Believe me folks – they are really playing up their appreciation of women in the party and its open season on women to come on over. Between Sarah Palin, Carly Fiorina’s behind the scenes work and this very public thanks from Laura, they’re expecting some gains. The Dems didn’t say a diddly damn thing about their women, did they? Smart work by the GOP and really dumb moves by the Dems.

Ron Reagan is the JFK of Republicans-it’s a lovefest by the GOP.

They are DESTROYING THE DEMS!I cant believe I am cheering with them but truthfully barky and company dont have a chance. Now Joe Lieberman is on now….

Seriously they are taking Obama to the cleaners

I like Sarah Palin, but a McCain/Lieberman ticket would have been awesome.

I was wondering the same thing.

Was it a subtle dig at Obama and the 527s to come?

Hello PUMA, aka the Republican Party! Here’s something to keep you awake while Leiberman stands as maestero over the evening’s cowboy hat tipping, American flag made in China waving, snooze fest:

Gallup Daily: Obama Hits 50% for First Time September 2, 2008
Barack Obama now wins the support of 50% of registered voters in general election preferences, his highest level to date. His 8-point margin over John McCain, with 42%, is one point shy of his widest lead, seen in late July.

A President that our enemies will fear lol I just love that line, that one went straight to the heart of Obama lol

Lieberman is talking to the Dems on the fence now: wow..

The GOP needs more black people. Where is Michelle Obama to fix the problem.

Be sure to watch Jon Stewarts take on B.O.’s acceptance speech. The movs are up at his website. Cutting and hilarious.

Wow… Lieberman…I like when he said “no matter if your republican, democrat, or a clinton dem!!! I love being seperated from those bottom feeders

This is not an ordinary election.

These are not ordinary times.

John McCain is no ordinary candidate.

whther you are independent, a reagan democrat a clinton democrat or a democrat.

This year vote for the person who is best for our country not the party you happen to belong to.

vote for the leader who since the age of 17 when he first raised his hand and took an oath to defend the constitution always put his country first.

- Joe Lieberman speaking to democrats from the RNC.

Michelle is not black did you not see her hair on the night of the DNC it was straighter than mine

That’s very ominous news for Obama. He should be 12-15 points ahead now.

Dear God, I couldn’t take Lieberman.
Palin, I’ll stomach.

Great speech by Lieberman. I think it will help some of those undecideds.

Oh and DONNA Brazile is soooo pissed right now talking she said they didnt know Liebermans speech would go after dems.

Sorry…but polls don’t keep me awake at night…lol

And as a lifelong Dem that is a pathetic showing after the convention.

If you had followed politics prior to Obama running you would know that.

Amazing speech by Fred Thompson, if you havent seen it go seek it out.

Great speech by lieberman to follow up speaking directly to democrats.

Here’s one He completes us.

Hillary did her best and I think her, now Sarah will take it from her and we have to ensure that she does.

LOL

wow!

just finished listening to Leiberman

again, amazing speech and historic…

republicans cheering Bill Clinton… Joe calling for Hillary Democrats and Reagan democrats to elect John Mccain

wow… Obama is fucked….

i mean, Obama is really going to have to steal a shitload of votes to not lose by a landslide…

this is going to be an historic election…

a. hillary
b. mccain

america first!

Pardon my language but, Fuck Donna…
…and not literally.

The polls have been swinging so much in the past few days I would not take a one day lead as any lasting indication. If this is still the case a month from now, I’ll worry.

Jim Lehrer looks like he is half-asleep: LOL !!!
He actually looks older…

Oh gosh… what a MESS have the DNC made !!! They have no pardon.

When are they going to lay off this phony pseudo shit? P.S. There should be a FCC ordinance or a federal law prohibiting anyone from putting any representation of Donna Brazile on television.

holy crap…

as others have said, i can’t believe i am watching a Republican convention and liking it…

i am genuinly excited…

wow…

thank you John Mccain and Sarah Palin!!!!

a. hillary
b. mccain

america first!

Darn I missed that….changing channel.

Thompson was amazingly good. Lieberman is on now. They are [to the man] defending Sarah Palin.

How refreshing!

How depressing that the Democratic Party has turned into the “Regressive Party.” The barefoot and pregnant party, women should be in the kitchen tending children party, burn ‘em to the stake party or pull out those fire brands and scorch the offenders with a capital “A” party.

McCain/Palin ’08
PUMA, 12th out of the 12
accused of being a right-wing nut and irrelevant old hag

BREAKING: Mccain pulls out of Larry King interview in protest of CNN treatment regarding the Palin coverage. See below It’s about time. CNN is shameful.

http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/09/02/mccain-cancels-larry-king-interview/?hp

WOOT WOOT!!!!!11!!!1!!!

Mccain RAWKS!!!!!!

a. hillary
b. mccain

america first!

Tomorrow Sarah will come in, kick butt, take names and bring down the house– as a matter of fact, if Republicans thought like Democrats, which I’m glad isn’t the case, they’d probably play She’s a Brick House.

Republicans cheering Bill Clinton….that is amazing.

This election cycle has turned everything upside down.

Lieberman saluted Bill Clinton and the crowd applauded!! Yes, Lieberman went against Obama; said he never reached across the aisle — unlike Bill Clinton!! and gets the Republicans to applaud Bill Clinton!!

The barefoot and pregnant party, women should be in the kitchen tending children party, burn ‘em to the stake party or pull out those fire brands and scorch the offenders with a capital “A” party.

yeah, Obama sure has united them all hasn’t he?

a. hillary
b. mccain

america first!

Hellow NoTerms4Obummer aka pod person of the Slime-ocrat Party. Have you found any new babies to target today with smears about their parantage?

Isn’t it great that we’re Americans first again, instead of demonizing people who vote for the other party?

I am also amazed… that I didn’t watch nor wanted to watch the Democratic Convention…yet couldn’t wait for the Republican Convention! And I am loving it and am inspired! I can’t wait for the days to follow.

I also appreciate and am inspired by.. the Country First theme. When all is said and done, and my friends say.. are you really voting for McCain.. I say YES!

At least I know all that McCain is and what he isn’t. I also KNOW he loves this country…. who knows who Obama is.. and why he wants to be President and who will actually be running this country!

I will vote and promote McCain/Palin and vote Democrat on the down ticket UNLESS they were disrespectful to Hillary… then I vote against them.

We can do just fune with McCain for 4 years and with Democratic controlled House and Congress! Balance in power what we are missing with Bush. Obama as President with no balance of power is SCARY!

2012 will be interesting… Hillary vs Palin for the first Female President!

wow.

McCain…will be one term Presdient I think.

or Hillary vs McCain…. still will be good!

WHO KNOWS.. if Obama is vetted and found ineligible to run for President … then enter Hillary?

Maybe the DNC will vet Obama and find out he is not eligible and expose him themselves … it is all early

And you know what? This isn’t funny anymore. TDS can’t get me to laugh at that piece of shit. It’s not funny anymore. It’s beyond that.

Actually, Jeremiah, I agree with Obama in that families should be off limits and you’ll find none of my postings suggesting anything to the contrary. I DO think it’s hypocritical of you republicans to spend 20 years bashing Clintons and their personal lives but suddenly decide it’s taboo now that one of your own is drowning in scandal, but hey, that’s politics, ain’t it? I wonder if the few democrat undecideds who still visit here occasionally would find this interesting?

Perhaps mentioning a liberal Democrat at a Republican rally isn’t such a good idea.

Palin plowed on, noting that Clinton got 18 million cracks in the highest, hardest ceiling and “it turns out the women of America aren’t finished yet.”

Amazing night!!

I loved Thompson and Lieberman. What a contrast between Obama and McCain’s lives.

McCain you had my vote the moment Hillary lost, but I will not waver in my support of you and Sarah Palin.

The last few days have been horrible after Obama unleashed his demons. I can’t imagine our beautiful country being under his rule. We will live in fear everyday – it will be a communist rule.

JFK was way before my time, but Ronald Reagan is the first President I remember. We love him in the Republican Party and that isn’t going to change. Although, the fact Obama likes him doesn’t please me in the slightest. Oh well!

I loved the speeches.

I held my breath when he mentioned Bill Clinton and Clinton Democrats.

This is huge folks!

When Sarah talked about Geraldine and Hillary and received a large crowd of cheers, it tells me the Republicans are digging into the trenches and ready to win this thing.

I’m even more excited after tonight.

Saying a few prayers, sending good vibes, and whatever else positive to Sarah Palin tomorrow night.

Agree he has brass balls: but why Larry King? It’d have aided McCain sitting with Larry King wouldn’t have? On teh other hand I salute him for drawing the line at last: enough is enough especially when it comes from a noone named Campbell Brown (she’s really a terrible reporter …).

Katie Couric did a horrible interview with Pawlenty during Thomspon’s speech on CBS:
First she lied and blatantly distorted Palin’s position about creationism saying she “supported creationism be taught at schools” and then when Pawlenty was talking about Palin’s experience being superior to Obama in the executive side she interrupted him sharply, and indignantly said:
“Oh well, those are the Republican talking points !”

Unbelievable….really unbelievable.

You remember that scene in the Senate earlier this year when Obama practically dragged Lieberman off the Senate floor for a little “chat,” gripping Lieberman and forcefully steering him into a corridor off camera. Obama looked like the thug he really is. Tonight must have been sweet for Lieberman as he called Obama out on Obama’s lack of substance. Payback’s a bitch.

Hillary, not so much:

Perhaps mentioning a liberal Democrat at a Republican rally isn’t such a good idea.

Palin plowed on, noting that Clinton got 18 million cracks in the highest, hardest ceiling and “it turns out the women of America aren’t finished yet.”

Al Hunt on Charlie Rose said that what has been reported today on the news (ABC NEWS among many) that Sarah Palin was a member for 2 years of the AIP (Alaska Independent Party) is a LIE.
SHAME ON THE NETWORKS NEWS FOR WRITING ALL DAY ON THIS WHEN IT HAS BEEN SO QUICKLY DEBUNKED. UGH!!!!!!

If this is true then : KUDOS TO SARAH PALIN!!!!!!!
SHE HAS GUTS !!!!! EXCELLENT!!! YEAH!!!

Donna Brazile sure hates hearing the truth and her inside gossip is really crappy…..lol

Way to go Joe!

you know what really got me?

after learning about Mccain and what he stood up for… and what he sacrificed for us…

the years and years of torture…

the principles he maintains…

the morals…

the strength of character…

and the mere hours it took for Obama to flip flop on FISA…

i am just speechless…

Obama has no shame…

what a coward…

what a slimeball…

he should be booted out of washington ASAP…

a. hillary
b. mccain

america first!

Yeah. Clinton was booed by democrats too at the Edwards Endorsement of Obama in Michigan.

There was so much hate and shit flung at Hillary by the Democrats and thugs supporting obama.

You dirty obamaphiles think we are going to forget how members of her own party treated her but hold members of the opposition to a higher standard?

Hypocrit!

They landed some hard shots on Obama, no question.

This is the way the game is supposed to be played. No matter where you stand politically, this is exciting to witness.

I hate CNN. I was watching PBS coverage of the convention and they show a fellow talking about Cindy McCain humanitarian work and how she save two Bangladesh girls from proverty. I flipped over to CNN and they didn’t show any of it. Bastard.

I remembered exactly that “episode” and thought the same: payback is a bitch, indeed!

haha…yeah i remember watching that and thinkng who the fuck does this fraud think he is?

Grabbing Leiberman by the elbow and steering him to a corner like a dad reprimanding some errant child.

God i cant wait till November 5 when barky is heading back to the senate to actually learn what it means to be a senator and do his job so he isnt voted out of office.

I missed that.

Thanks for the heads up and link.

I agree. This is the first time I have ever watched the Republican convention and I actually enjoyed it. It was nice to hear some love of country and working together regardless of party. Country first!

What no ITS NOT HER BABY smears tonight on the Axelfraud talking points memos?

You obots need to get a life. Go hang out on Daily Kos and discus how it was Karl Rove who planted that story about the baby as a way to deligitimize Daily Kos as a legitamate news source.

LOL

You took the words right out of my mouth, I was just thinking this same thing. Not only am I watching the Republican convention but loving it, hooting and hollering for these men and women…I can’t believe it! If someone told me last year I’d be doing this I probably would have insulted them LOL

John McCain/Sarah Palin ’08
Hillary Clinton’12

Country First: Reform * Prosperity * Peace

oh yeah…

what a disgusting move by Obama…

Joe has class… he didn’t make a big deal out of it at the time though…

a. hillary
b. mccain

america first!

can you guys imagine the shear numbers of votes Obama is going to have to steal in Movember?

i mean, after Palin speaks at the convention they will have to double their efforts…

i’m curious to see how brazen they will be in the vote stealing….

a. hillary
b. mccain

america first!

I’ve watched some of the convention tonight, including Hannity questioning Pence of Ind. and asking when the Repub’s are going to really start going after Bambi. No answer, really, but I liked when Pence turned to Colmes and rebuked him for attacking a 17 years old girl!

All things aside, the Republicans are not getting me to switch over. That’s not my point here.

I’ve been ignored by Republicans for years and years and years. And I’m not buying that they’ve all suddenly seen the light.

It’s about My Party, the Democrats, giving me the finger, in my face, loud and clear, no more mealy-mouthed beating around the bush, etc., that has me voting for a Repub. ticket this year.

Two years, and four years, from now…I’ll let ya know. So, I would say…DON’T GET COCKY ON ME!!! It is COUNTRY FIRST for me, NOT PARTY!! No political party of any kind!

I agree, pal3, PBS offers much better coverage in general. Watching their coverage of the Democratic Convention last week was how I heard a riveting interview with Michelle Obama in which she declared her great admiration for Senator Clinton and disclosed that the two had been in frequent contact over the last several weeks. Clinton has been advising her on how to keep her kids protected once they’re in the White House. Hopefully John McCain won’t make disgusting remarks about the Obama children as he did Hillary’s only daughter when she was First Lady. Remember that? He said she was so ugly Janet Reno must be her father. Isn’t he speaking at the Republican Convention sometime this week? I hadn’t heard…

God i cant wait till November 5 when barky is heading back to the senate to actually learn what it means to be a senator and do his job so he isnt voted out of office.

Me too!!

I’m so upset I had to miss the convention tonight. Hopefully I can catch some uploads on youtube, but I’m enjoying your comments. And very much looking forward to Sarah Palin tomorrow night.

That’s the highest he’ll go without people calling BS.

Imagine the press section booing Hillary. Shocker.

How right you are! One of my nearly year old twins has sat here in my office with Lieberman on in the background. He’s asleep now. Wish I had done the same.

Isn’t it crazy? I cannot believe myself watching the RNC… !! Amazing what Brazile, Dean, Pelosi and Obama were able to achieve …

gosh, do you sound bitter?

a. hillary
b. mccain

america first!

Lieberman is a very respectable senator. Has a descent record and is a true moderate.

They threatened him for daring to even speak at the convention. I didn’t like Joe Lieberman very much in 2004, but after watching his career more in the past couple years , he’s got some brass balls.

Yes, that is quite and ugly visual.

CNN needs to get roland martin off the air waves. He just stated that if you question senator obama your racist or a bigot in response to the calls of sexism towards Gov Palin and then I swear to god Gergen just stated that the Republican party is the party of Old white Men attempting to ensenuate that the Republicans are racist.

So now we are back to if you ask a question your a bigot or racist towards Senator Obama. This is fucking pathetic. I cannot believe this guy stated the Republican party is different from the Dems based on “color”.

This is pathetic

I watched the Dem and now am watching the Repub convention. Talk about a stark contrast.

Obama’s supporters should be worried. Clearly they are…just watch MSNBC’s coverage of it…well I should say their commentary about it. I switch from Fox to them now and then and the liberal spin is just disgusting.

I have always voted Dem…blindly. It was a hard habit to break. While I don’t agree with McCain on everything, he is who I want to lead our country. I am finding that the Republican Party is not all that I thought it to be. Of course, this opinion comes from much research on the candidates and the issues, not just from convention fluff.

Sorry wrong name its not Gergen who made the statement.

You kidding?! I’m psyched to see a McCain/Palin ticket tromp all over the Dear One so we can rebuild a credible Democratic party.

I am sure dome obama fruitcake is going to come in here and say:

If Joe Leiberman was a TRUE Democrat he would have lent Obama his brass balls!

Yeah and I remember when Michelle said she wanted to scratch the President’s eyes out.

And when she attacked Hillary for not being able to run her house so she didn’t deserve the White House.

As well as the Obamas insulting President Clinton’s successful admins. While smearing them as racists…was the most vile thing I’ve ever seen in politics.

Nice to know that Hillary has more class and compassion, even with the backstabbing treatment of the DNC and Obamas.

A joke vs racist slander.

And you falsely chastise us for not supporting the Clintons? You are the fraud….you never supported the Clintons!

Like a joke even ranks on something to be upset at when careers and reputations are ruined by charges of racism!

Yes, too bad they have the decency not to go after Obama’s Kids like he and his dirty filthy surrogates did to Palin’s Kids.

All Class vs No Class.

PLEASE THINK ABOUT McCain Palin. I am a 50 year Democrat and have never voted Republican, never even had the urge. But what I saw happen in the Democratic Party this year is a sea change for me. I feel that if Obama and the DNC win this election or even come close we will never see the thuggery, blatant vote stealing, voter suppression and manipulation of this election addressed. The Demiocrtic party that I have always loved and admired is broken and defiled. Only a huge landslide loss has any chance of getting the message across—18,000,000 solid Democrats have already tried to support the other wing of this party and it has been totally and completely ignored. The only alternative we have is to vote as a united bloc for McCain Palin and make a roar the DNC can not ignore. Only a huge loss will break this power grab and open up the road for Clinton Democrats to come forward and they are the only ones who can beat the Republicans. McCain Palin may not even be a bad deal as I think they are truly sincere about a reform agenda and committed to making it happen. I think they are far more likely to change Washington than Obama and Biden.

Hillary was booed by Democrats when obarf spoke at rallies. So don’t tell me about the other party booing, when her own party ate her!

He’s a DINO, and no, he’s not.

In the Clinton year, Arthur Levitt at the FCC and the FASB proposed various accounting changes that would have closed the loopholes that helped Arthur Andersen and Enron perform their accounting gymnastics.

Two prominent Democrats blocked this. The first was Senator Dodd and the other was Senator Holy Joe.

When Enron exploded, during the Senate investigations in to Enron started Joe Lieberman had this look of surprise. Total f*cking bullsh*t! He was warned of this and had that “who me” look and started criticizing regulators for letting it happen.

When Gore announced him as his VP pick I thought it was April Fool’s.

Didn’t Michelle say on ABC interview “that she wasn’t sure if she would vote for Hillary if she was the nominee. That she would have to think really really hard about…” ?

Mccain/Palin 08

Couple problems. For one, he was up by four in the last poll and the margin of error is running at about three percent. That makes his bump almost a statistical hiccup.

Until like Scream Dean who did not stand up for Hillary in the mist of the MSM sexist carnage.
Coward Howard came out when they knew they had a problem with 18million voters.

Shut up obot. I don’t think HIllary would have antthing to do with tacky MeeeShellll after Meeesheelll said Hillary couldn’t keep her house in order and she wasn’t sure if she would vote for Hillary. So go take your stupid gossip elsewhere.

I hate CNN. I flipped to CNN, and they were not discussing anything about the speeches or the RNC, but they were defending Campbell Brown on the horrible hysterics against Tucker Carlson over Sarah Palin – I mean she looked out of control and like a nut case, and Wolf Blitzer said “I didn’t see anything you did wrong, Campbell.”

I emailed Campbell today, and told her what I thought of her biased crazy coverage. Go to CNN and email Campbell (nutcase) Brown and let her know what you think of her – jam her email. I hate the Campbell Brown types that are biased and out of control. Disgusting and demonic Campbell Brown.

Oh good point….thanks for bringing it up!

Forgot about that scene.

I’ve been watching CNN – Blitzer, Cooper, Campbell Brown and John what’s his name congratulate each other for almost 30 minutes on giving Palin a hard time and carrying on endlessly about how little time McCain spent vetting Palin.

The press, including this crowd, are sickening and shameless. Campbell Brown got to air her “pulled interview” with Tucker Bounds in which she pounds away at the question “Has Sarah Palin ever deployed the Alaska National Guard?” – which Bounds could not seem to answer in the affirmative. In the interview, Brown thought she had a great handle on proving Palin has no claim on “military” experience. She went after Bounds like a rabid dog with a bone.

Tonight she admitted that after the interview, someone actually called the Alaska National Guard and found that indeed Palin had deployed the Guard to fight fires.

Instead of admitting that the point of her vicious interview with Bounds was out of line, she and the CNN crew yucked it up about how they were “doing the campaign’s job” by discovering Palin’s National Guard experience. Their self-congratulatory chatter quickly deteriorated into ridicule of McCain and Palin.

These people are actually scary.

We all talk about cleaning up the Democratic Party, but I gotta tell ya, cleaning up the press corps is just as important.

Lieberman did good tonight. Like someone said, payback is sweet.

The left wing of the Democratic Party tried to take Lieberman out in the last senatorial election, and they succeeded: he lost in the primary. But, since CT is a closed primary and there are many Independent registered voters, Lieberman basically outsmart them and ran as an Independent. He won, with Democratic, Independent and Republican voters.

Payback, big time.

Wasn’t Lieberman Obama’s choice for Senator mentor?

You better be more concerned about Obama and his campaign sending out minions to smear Palins children on the internet than about John McCain.

YOu are a sick sick individual.

Unlike your fraud of a snake oil salesman, John McCain is an honorable man.

The Repub convention sure is different but I like it, I like the image of the flag in the wind and the simplicity of the setting, makes it look soft on the eyes.

The idea of country first is great, since we are not too sure if Obama’s wife is proud of this country as yet and we sure cant forget Obama’s pastor we all know he does not like this country.

I saw a lot of people crying during Thompson speech on Mc Cain that was touching, that man really suffered a lot geez for love of country, its just sad that so many in this country is not kinder to him.

At lest the RNC is not like a Hollywood stage with lights and screens and over the top crap, people that come to that convention come to hear the speakers and issue not for the show and music, I never did watch a RNC before but I did enjoy this first time

Republicans know more can be won by appearing to be the victim of baseless attacks.

It’s kind of shameful that CNN keeps on repeating “we have the best political team on t.v…” as if it was true. Who the hell told them that?

Yup it feels real.

And simple.

No American Idol Stage Design.

Its a stark contrast to the ridiculous self agrandizing pomposity of the DNC.

No wonder we are spending our asses off in washington.

Lets not forget the Democrats have had control of both houses for two years now and havent done shit but spend spend spend.

Much like the Hypebama they have a policy of if We say it enough times it will be true.

I was pissed when he won, but now I am glad he kicked the “move on” candidate’s ass.

He is a POS Troll.

He is paid to smear and won’t leave till he is banned or the Obama campaign closes its offices paid blog troll center…which will be on November 5 after he concedes.

Correct me, but did McCain state they were withdrawing because of Brown’s statement or is that what CNN is claiming?

I find it hard to believe McCain would be foolish enough to withdraw from the CNN interview because of what transpired with Ms. Brown the night before.

I saw that display too.

How do they look at themselves in the mirror?

I wish someone from the Republicians would present all of Obama’s scandal at the convention and dare Obama to sue them for slander.

LOL..

I thought the flag was really great. Beautiful actually.

Lieberman rocked the house!

Anyone else noticed the dramatic change in tone of your standard Obamabot troll?

A couple of thoughts on the convention.
Regarding Joe Liberman, he seemed truly sincere, like most of us, he sees the danger of Obama and wants ‘a person’ of character not a particular party in the White House. I wish Hillary would have advocated the same thing.

Also, Obama trying to steal some of McCain’s thunder on Thursday- Obama is being interviewed by O’Reilly Thurs.

Wish they had the balls to vet Obama.

Well Obiwan was Anikin Skywalkers mentor and we all know how that turned out…

appearing to be?

Whats the matter couldnt find the pregnancy fat suit in wasilla?

OMG: Do you see all of the yahoos in attendance at the republican convention?

Where in the world do these people come from?

Yikes.

Hey two term you really know how to work a crowd. You can forget Obama serving two terms. No way. I love how you idiotic Obama trolls continue with your garbage. The sad thing is that you do not seem to feel that you need the Clinton voters. I think you will find out this is a mistake. I agree with others that this is a surreal moment in our Nations history. I should have known something was up this summer as I became a big Hillary fan as she chased Obama down. As a strong conservative this felt strange. Strange or not I was hooked. Senator Clintons strength, knowledge of the issues, and her fighting spirit inspired me. Voted for her in the NC primary, and despite her lose, I continued to follow the primary fight. Unlike two term I will ask for you to take a hard look at McCain/Palin. We need your votes or we are going to have a Marxist for POTUS. Country first.

OMG Did you see how many black turned out for the DNC convention, Where in the world did these people come from??

Yikes

You gotta see Newt delivering a smackdown:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yN54Fb9dLKs&eurl=http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2008/09/03/gingrich-slams-msnbcs-allen-concerning-palins-qualifications

I just got in and got to hear Lieberman’s speech.

In terms of pure oratory he’s no Demosthenes, but I have to think it will be quite powerful for swing/undecided voters.

His endorsement of Palin as the real change candidate is particularly devastating to the party line.

…but his name will still be on the general election ballot, not hers. Sorry.

And they’re giving Roland Martin an “election special” program this weekend.. More like Obama talking points infomercial..

CNN sucks.

I seriously agree about R Martin. The guy is sad piece of work…He needs to get back to Rev Meeks Church…and stay there.

The democratic up and coming “pun-dent” class is a wash with misfits.

Sorta like how Obama plays the victim during legitimate attacks?

The convention was positive and pleasant, I have never watched the RNC before, they had a nice vibe.

Fred Thompson is an excellent speaker and although I do not agree with him on everything, I appreciated his straight shooting approach. Liebermann was fine too, good speech, not as great a speaker but effective as it was delivered with integrity and feeling.

It was nice to see something positive said about the USA, our troops etc. Better than the “everything sucks” Obama is selling. I tire of hearing it.

In sharp contrast: CNN

The reporters interviewing each other and trashing McCain aides was annoying. Donna Brazile, a “guest commentator” is and was vile.

The little “CNN Factoids” at the bottom of the screen during the event were ridiculous “Did you know: John McCain is old?”, “Did you know: everything sucks”.

And the Obama ads, ick. Yeah Barack, I am going to change my mind and vote for you because I saw your ad during the RNC. Really. I am.

No, he’s the FDR of the Republicans.

I know that Senator Joseph Lieberman is a true statesman at a time when we don’t have any left. Who else, in either party, would have had the courage and the conviction to do the right thing for his country, no matter what the costs. The last true statesman I can remember coming from the Senate was Paul Simon and maybe Fred Thompson. He is a good and decent man and I think he might have had a major appeal to lifelong democrats and independents who are reluctant to vote McCain.

The best line of his speech:

“When you speak of John McCain, you will never have to ask yourself, who is this man and can I trust him with the presidency.”

I agree with you, Obama does sucketh.

Absolutely Roxy! Obama is a shitty candidate!!

Actually, this is what I’m feeling myself.

I’m voting for McCain, I’m just saying that I hope the Republicans don’t think I’ll be jumping over to their side. I’ve not been too impressed with them for the last 30 years.

That’s why I’ve been a Democrat for almost 30 years, and all of this just ticks me off. I want the old Party, the Working People’s Party back. And if I have to vote Republican this year so they finally “get it,” then so be it.

Who knows? Maybe it’s time for a real third party. And I’m not one of the people who thinks we need 5, 10, 20 different political parties. I’m just really in the mood for a major “house cleaning” right now.

My, my…such a bigoted and racist itty-bitty anchovy. I’d hate to see what you’ll turn out like when you’re all grown up.

I can’t believe I’m saying this….but he’s right! Newt Gingrich, one of my all time least favorite people….I’m agreeing with him! But, right is right and wrong is wrong. This time, the Democrats/far left Obamasoretoros are wrong and the Republicans are right.

what kind of comment is this? It must be a troll pretending to be a regular.

yes, he declared that he is his POLITICAL mentor and inspiration, while wright is his spiritual one.

She need not worry. They won’t be in the WH.

Which is why I quit watching it, except for Lou Dobbs from time-to-time. In fact, earlier today my husband asked me to turn on the news, and I asked him which station, and he said, “Fox.” Then we both grimaced, and simultaneously said, “Eeew, damned Barky!”

You mean, unlike the Barky talking points she was spouting?

I saw a bit of footage where she spoke for the AIP in Fairbanks, as the Republican governor. Is that what they’re referring to? That’s just plain stupid. That doesn’t make her an Independent, anymore than Joe Lieberman would now be a Republican just because he spoke tonight at the RNC Convention and is supporting McCain.

They’re only good at stealing caucus votes. The GE is NOT a caucus. We’ll see how that goes for them.

McCain/Palin ’08

You know, that’s what some people on the left were saying just a couple of years ago. They were questioning “Sen. Slither” [coined by a writer for either The Nation or Texas Observer] for some of his apparents flip-flops in ’06.

Think what best for your country not what good for your party.

It will be thoughtful if you can have your facts not half back. Politicians are politicians and they play politics be sure to get the facts. The problem that we have is finding it dificult to accept the truth.

Gore Lost

Kerry Lost

and

Obama will lose for same reason

Being lairs, the worst is when you lie to yourself and wish it turn the way wish. As one, you have only one vote.

How old were you then?

see you on Nov. 4

A bit of U.S. History…

“On the issue of slavery at the 1860 Democratic Convention, Democrats held that each State had the right to prohibit or recognize slavery. This position caused Northern Democrats to withdraw from the convention. The Southern Democrats and the Northern Democrats each nominated their own separate candidates for President that year. The election was ultimately lost to Republican candidate Abraham Lincoln.” Interesting…the Party of slavery has a black man as their candidate.

Sure we really care about the color of one’s skin. The GOP started to fight slavery…

How sad the best you can do is watch Tv instead of playing with then, now a one year old is making up your mind for you.

Your are not the first that a teen is going to make a decision for.

Fellow democrat, wake up.

Right on!

You are not alone

Yes yes

You know you stuff.

Good for McCain. I saw that interview and Campbell Brown thought she was being so cutesy. It was clear she was trying to pull Sarah Palin down. And, at the very end, she–very coyly–remarked that she was only trying to learn who Sarah Palin is. She’s another slime bag that was so full of herself. You go, McCain. I had missed her name or I would have fired off an email about it to CNN immediately! (I don’t watch enough to even know the names of most of CNN’s staff).

PS I have never heard any of the staff ask the same questions of Obama, not even close! not on CNN nor any other media outlet!

Thank you very much ugo, do think Oblabla knows HIS history?

what an obvious Obama bot racist comment…

shame on you Obama…

a. hillary
b. mccain

america first!

who would have thought that the Clintons – both Hillary and Bill would get more respect at a republican convention this year?

wow… this is truly a historical election…

a. hillary
b. mccain

america first!

The idea of country first is great, since we are not too sure if Obama’s wife is proud of this country as yet and we sure cant forget Obama’s pastor we all know he does not like this country.

Like Vinnie said, “dontcha know, she loves her country now.”

That cracked me up.

What’s wrong, Roxanne? Haven’t you ever seen bitter white folk who work for a living?

OMG Did you see how many black turned out for the DNC convention, Where in the world did these people come from??

Yikes

Ha ha! Great comeback SJ!

We Republicans are really “closet” nice people…LOL

Truely, we are not the evil doers that the Opress paints us to be…

history in the making…

oh yeah, anyone notice the Democrat for Mccain signs?

Oh my according to the democrat nuts JFK should never have been President — JFK should have stayed home because he had two small children and his wife lost a baby. Oh never mind — JFK had a penis.

Palin doesn’t have the right equipment to be a VP. Give me a break.

Ray Gun was a lousy Governor and a worse Prez — he has saddles the US with long term problems. For instance it was the dear old boy Ronnie who tossed out the metric system which the US was s l o w l y converting to. Also Ray Gun was a Democrat before he became a Republican.

My bet is that Bush I was the actual President — the guy that really made the decisions. He probably knows full well that his son is incapable of being Prez and that’s why Cheney got the job of finding a VP for GWB — who turned out to be . . . Cheney. Funny how that happened.

I watched CSPAN and got to trust my own intincts. F*ck the MSM.

Thompson’s wife was a target of the media so I am sure that he had no problem warming to the task.

Appearing on CNN only improves their ratings …. screw them. Let them get their information from the Associated Press.

Unfortunately you cant vote for journalistic integrity at the voting booth.

But you can vote with your pocket book.

Stop watching and send letters to the sponsors that support them.

But you did vote twice for The Worst President Ever™.

The party that stole the election, let 9/11 happen through sheer incompetence, lost a major city through MORE incompetence, blew the Clinton deficit, trashed the Constitution, started an illegal war, and made torture national policy is having its convention…

What can they possibly have to say for themselves? =O

Palin!!

No Obama!!

That’s enough for me — PUMA!!!

I loved the RNC. Thompson really knocked it out of the park……

The Morning After News

Today’s Drudge Report Headline
HURRICANE SARAH HITS ST PAUL
knocked Barry off the top for a CHANGE

Johnny’s got a new girl

Liberals howl that Palin has no experience, no qualifications to be president of the United States. But the lady has more executive experience than McCain, Joe Biden and Obama put together.
None of them has ever started or run a business as Palin did. None of them has run a giant state like Alaska, which is larger than California and Texas put together. And though Alaska is not populous, Gov. Palin has as many constituents as Nancy Pelosi or Biden.
She has no foreign policy experience, we are told. And though Alaska’s neighbors are Canada and Russia, the point is valid. But from the day she takes office, Palin will get daily briefings and sit on the National Security Council with the president and secretaries of state, treasury and defense.
She will be up to speed in her first year.
And her experience as governor of Alaska, dealing with the oil industry and pipeline agreements with Canada, certainly compares favorably with that of Barack Obama, a community organizer who dealt in the mommy issues of food stamps and rent subsidies.
Where Obama has poodled along with the Daley Machine, Palin routed the Republican establishment, challenging and ousting a sitting GOP governor before defeating a former Democratic governor to become the first female and youngest governor in state history.
The Palin nomination could backfire, but it is hard to see how. She has passed her first test, her introduction to the nation, with wit and grace. And the Obama-Biden ticket, having already alienated millions of women with the disrespecting of Hillary, is unlikely to start attacking another woman whose sole offense is that she had just been given the chance to break the glass ceiling at the national level.

“As a presidential campaign, we reserve the right to adjust Senator McCain’s media schedule in order to ensure the most effective use of his time,” said Maria Comella, a spokeswoman. “After a relentless refusal by certain on-air reporters to come to terms with John McCain’s selection of Alaska’s sitting governor as our party’s nominee for vice president, we decided John McCain’s time would be better served elsewhere.”

So Larry King, CNN’s trademark host, suffers because of the bias of some low rent beat reporter.

Hahaha this ought to make for some great behind-the-scenes temper tantrums.

I watched it on PBS, but the spin monster was working there as well in Barry Soetoro’s favor. More subtle perhaps but there. It is done with voice tones, slight smirks or shrugs….. June Woodward I once admired, but her interview of those three from Alaska, gave me pause.

What has happened? Do we have a case of the body snatchers here? Demon possession? A revved up Stepford program? It is bizarre. Have they been promised places of power in the regime? Have they been threatened? Or is it love or is it money?

tzada, I agree what is this MSM thing? It is bizarre, weird, unreal, twilight zone stuff. Most of my comments in the past few days have described it as demonic. It is as if Obama as a league of demons that he unleashes to do his dirty work.

I am not kidding, this is some weird stuff.

Other than to sit back and allow obama’s thugs to beatus up and steal our votes…and scream and intimidate women caucus voters..and call us the C word and worse..no the dems did nothing “for” women but tear us down and take us back 40 + years!

It seemed the Republicans last night were clearly reaching out to women..

And not just the young ones!!
There was even a part of the speeches of womens sufferage..and MLK.

Did i hear Susan B. Anthony mentioned..or am i getting my speeches mixed up..didn’t someone mention her??

DPVEGAS..i agree with you..i am voting McCain to see the dem party leadership be taken to their knees..and see to it this old boys club gets thrown from the bus..even the women among them..that stood by and allowed this to go on.

And as for the Womens groups throughout the nation..you sat silent as well..day late and a dollar short for NOW to come out after women and hillary were torn to shreds to send out a statement..they can kiss my ass,..all of them..not another dime from me..to any of these womens groups..

Silence is not a remedy to this Misogyny Now and Emily’s list ..you can hold your hands on your asses waiting for money from me in the future..just like we waited for your voices when we women were thrown from the bus….by Donna Brazile, Nancy Pelosi and Obama …and told we were not needed in the “NEW DEMOCRATIC PARTY”..

I sure hope those “NEW” members shower you with money..you have alot of ladies money to make up…but I have a feeling those “NEW” democratic women would rather spend their money on makeup, Blackberries, Ipods and Beer Bongs..

Susan, Larry,

watching nbc this morning, they’re showing live footage of palin talking with her handlers about what she is supposed to do in her speech and presentation.

have you noticed about the political conventions (both gop and dem), that it’s all about THEM and never about u.s., have you noticed it also?

and THEY (political parties and their wunderkind and media bubble heads who slobber all over themselves fawning over the political ‘candidates’) wonder why the american people are so ‘turned off’ regarding politics and their ‘conventions’ and what the mainstream media call ‘news’.

the political conventions remind me of college frat brats during finals week who fall all over themselves half-naked slobber=knockin-drunk instead of studying for their finals and their grades and their overall gpa suffers as a result. we the american people and our nation spelled ‘u.s.’ suffer because of the slobber=knockin=full-of-themselves political conventions, and the bobble head media who fawn all over the political candidates instead of ‘vetting them’ which is what the media should be doing.

has the media ever broached the subject of just how many drugs (and for what) that mccain is taking, or about obama and the weatherman terrorist ayers’s still close affiliations? no, instead we the people get ‘pablum’ from the media instead of hard hitting ‘vetting’ of presidential candidates and their running mates (spelled vice presidential candidate types who may or not wear skirts).

HEY TWO TERM ODISASTER..

HILLARY WAS BOO’ED BY ALL THE OBAMAIDIOTS ALL THE TIME.. did you miss that?????????..but not just boo’ed..she was called the “C” word and every nasty word in-between…

a word many of us thought was retired in the mid 60′s..

Her own fucking party…or i should say.. Obama’s party of filthy ignuts…or.’THE NEW DEMOCRATIC PARTY”..that seem to be so educated about politics..NOT…I believe these ignuts are the most ignorant i have seen around politics in my 56 years..other than McGovern’s ignuts.

Yes the New Ignut Democratic Party Boo’ed the first two term Democratic First Lady we have had in 40+ years..real smart kiddies…and in doing so..have destroyed the democratic party of old..that i was a member for 40+ years…oh and gave alot of time and money to.

No more.

You think you are coming here playing with amatures…you are not ..sonny..we are lifelong dems who built this party Obama has denegrated and destroyed..now it looks like we have to take it to it’s knees ..

And we will.

We will rebuild the dem party once again..once you kiddies have finished playing at politics and totally destroyed all the work we have done for decades..

we will not soon forget..

but we will give you the lesson of a lifetime..as was done to the McGovern idiots.

McCain did the right thing. Obama and the DNC stood by and watched Hillary be slaughtered. At some point in time, even the most low of low should have the fortitude to stand up and do what’s right……unfortunately the low of low, Obama and the DNC did not do it. I hope McCain knocks them on their sorry asses.

I tried to contact CNN, MSNBC but could not get a contact email address. Anyone have it?

TwotermObama…you just amaze me, Hillary, Bill and Chelsea are voting McCain!!!!!!!!!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Ahhh if i am correct ..it was Donna Brazile who first went after Dems..when she fucking stole my vote and the votes of 2 million dems..and then did it again by stealing the Calif dems votes on the floor during roll call!

Fuck Donna Brazile..i can’t wait to see the smile on her face destroyed on NOV 5th..when the Dem women of this nation take her skanky ass down!

They are about to learn..that we dem women ..care about country first..over party! and we care about each other ..more than any assholes who are so willing to steal votes to win..and they are willing to destroy democracy in the winning..

noooo nooo nooo we adult women will not allow that.

To me last night the RNC convention looked like the womens inclusion club..i swear..i never ever thought i would be watching their convention..but i actually felt the pride in women there..all the way to my toes i felt it..

it was a womens pride night, i thought..and i felt pride for them there..

so keep it up Barky toadies..you have done what no one before has ever gotten me to do..watch the RNC convention and really feel pride in being a women and enjoying every minute of the convention!

Keep it up Obamabots..you have now re-created the Reagan democrats..only now it is the WOMEN AND MOM Brigade!

WE ARE GOING TO TAKE YOUR LITTLE SORRY ASSES DOWN..ALONG WITH THE “NEW DEMOCRATIC PARTY OF BRAZILE, DEAN AND OBAMA.

after all..isn’t that what moms are supposed to do..teach our youth????????

get ready..your lesson is about to arrive.

Don’t forget..Lieberman was chosen by Barky to be his mentor as a junior senator……….Lieberman ..was chosen by Obama as his mentor!!

I really enjoyed last night’s event.
The young woman who started her own fondation, the UPS pilot, and especially the fire chief…these are “doers not takers”!
Thompson was funny and effective! Laura, as usual, was gracious, but she also hit on the womens’ place in society!
Until the dems return to their Clintonite roots and can address REAL issues for the sake of this country, they will receive no more votes from this household!!!!

I think you meant to say he polled 50% of those polled. Not knowing which poll but I know several that have hung up on them as they seem to call back to see if they have changed their minds. Some even ask is there anything that can be done to change their minds.
I do not think he had higher numbers just a different group that was more favorable to him at that time.

I am not sure anyone else picked up on this, but it is another perfect example of the bias that has infected NBC from the top down.

Last night, NBC opened their network coverage at 10:00 PM Eastern with a video replay of President Bush’s address to the delegates. The address was done earlier and was live at the time it was first delivered.

NBC showed the direct White House Video Feed. Thus, when President Bush paused to wait for applause to die down, he was seen on camera starting blankly at the camera for up to :30 seconds at a time. It looked ridiculous and sounded worse.
(Not that Bush needs help looking bad)

I flipped over to CBS and they were showing the same speech, but showing it as it was scene by the delegates, with cuts to the crowd viewing the President on giant video screens whenever there was applause.

Which presentation do you think is more fair? NBC certainly had access to the same type of video that CBS used. In fact MSNBC in their live coverage showed the crowd and the convention.

It would certainly seem that someone at NBC made a conscious decision to use the White House feed to dampen the effect of the President’s speech as much as possible.

Even for NBC that is low.

The leftwing bloggers are now doing to Sarah Palin what they have been doing to Larry Sinclair since January!
They released his SS#, and smeared himself as well as his entire family, including his elderly mother, and deceased father. Now, they have releases Sarah’s SS#, and are smearing her and her family as well.

This is ridiculous, and the media is assisting the Obama thugs in this behavior.

What a thoroughly ugly group most of you people are. Blechh! It’s like walking into a pig-sty, but without the inherent honesty of pigs.

You knew what to expect when you walked in so take you high minded sensibilities and get the hell out. Oh …. and since when is stealing someone’s social security information and posting it on the internet a sign of “honesty?” You might also like to know that PIGS are among the cleanest of animals … jackasses … not.so.much.

No I didn’t know what to expect, but I have now scraped the shit off my shoes. Go spend some time in a real pig sty (I was raised on a farm, btw) and you will find them so much better company than your sort.

Well, at least – so far – you haven’t used the N word about Obama – but I can feel the desire to do that behind every negative post.

Crybaby Obama has meeting with FOX and whines that he’s not getting treated fairly. Waah, Waah, WAAAAH.

Roger Ailes responds to Crybaby by saying, basically: well, we’re not going to be in the “tank” for you like CNN & MSNBC.

HA HA HAAAAA Crybaby Obot That He Is.

I think I would like to personally speak with Obot & teach him a few things about FAIRNESS. Caucus fairness would be especially useful knowledge.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/09/02/AR2008090202730.html

I will never, ever forget all the shit Obama + CNN + the dreadful, dastardly MSNBC tiny people threw at Hillary. It was despicable and some of it so gross as to not be repeatable. Meanwhile, Pelosi, Dean and the 100%-NOT-independent Brazile sat idly by and crowed with delight.

Unfknblvbl Bastards.

I am 58 years old. After watching the 2000 election fraud I abandoned the Democratic Party for the Greens. I also turned off the television at that time. I did not turn the T.V. back on until early THIS YEAR! Not once! This year I rejoined the Democrats specifically to cast my much-awaited Hillary vote (I live in California & must vote along registered party lines).

But I will immediately leave the Democratic Party now that Hillary is no longer available. And, it does appear that Hillary was restrained or in some way threatened. Bill, too.

I have never voted Republican but will do so this year. I always vote on experience. McCain’s my guy, then. The fact that McCain picked Palin is an added plus for me because it was a gutsy move while, at the same time, demonstrating respect for us who are disenfranchised. But, Hillary was always the best candidate the Dems ever had. I am certain that both Hillary and Bill will vote for their friend, John McCain, on election day. What’s good enough for Hillary & Bill is plenty good enough for me!

The first time I listened to Barack Obama I knew he was an out-an-out fraud. At first I couldn’t believe how the elder party members jumped on board while knowing that BO had no experience.

But, I again stopped listening to the MSM (much worse than in 2000) and did significant research on my own. I now know that all of what has happened (caucus fraud included)is part of some vicious conspiracy and that BO himself has done things for which a normal person would be indicted for criminal conspiracy & aiding & abetting.

But, No. Nothing quite so dramatic. This guy is just the Democratic candidate.

I think people are afraid of him. I think there’s REASON to be afraid of him. Stupid, stupid maneuver by these illustrious Democrats. There’s a reason the Democrats never win elections: it’s the engrained Stupidity, Stupid.
